I joined Life Time Bridgewater as a premium member, paying nearly $300 per month. As a former…read moretennis player, I was excited to learn pickleball since it is the primary racquet sport offered at this location. Unfortunately, my experience with the pickleball program has been extremely disappointing. While the facility itself is beautiful, the culture on the pickleball courts is the opposite of what I expected from a premium club. The staff came across as gatekeepers rather than customer service professionals. Instead of making members feel welcome, I often felt as though they were deciding whether I was "allowed" to play. As a paying premium member, I should not feel like participation is a privilege granted by staff. The skill assessment process is another major concern. Members are required to pay for an assessment to access different levels of play, yet there is little transparency about how ratings are determined. In my experience, the results did not reflect actual on-court performance, and there was no meaningful explanation of the evaluation criteria. A player can compete successfully against intermediate-level players and still be placed in the beginner category without a clear explanation. A transparent, objective rating system would be much fairer. Reservations can also be canceled without meaningful notice or explanation, making it difficult for members to plan their schedules. After speaking with other members, I found that several expressed similar frustrations about the management of the pickleball program. People join Life Time because it is a premium club, and the membership fees reflect that. Members deserve professionalism, respect, transparency, and consistent customer service. The facilities are outstanding, but the management and customer experience of the Bridgewater pickleball program fell far short of the standards I expected.

Real classy response. I would never hire anyone who has to deal with customers who has an attitude like that and that level of ignorance. Not to mention the fact when I first asked for a shake he was surprised I went there just for a shake and commented how expensive they are there.

At Strength and Honor Fitness, it will make you drool, sweat in places that you didn't know can sweat, AND just as a caution, you probably don't want to eat an hour before coming for a session here or else you might find your meal beautifully displayed on the ground. This is the perfect gym to kick your butt into shape! I have a love-hate relationship with this place. I wonder why I put myself through, the gym owner and instructor, Matt Keller's ever creative personal hell... But when the results begin to show, I know it's all worth it to suck up the pain, so I won't have to suck it in later when I'm wearing that gorgeous dress! I say, give it a try. He even offers a free evaluation session to let you see what the class is like and if you're up for the challenging classes. There's nothing for you to lose, maybe, except for a couple of pounds!

So honestly...place just keeps on getting worse…read more I'm still expected to wipe down machines, but as paper towel dispensers break they're just being removed...and paper towels left, on a roll, on top of a garbage can. So no easy way to cut/rip, while trying to balance the spray bottle and whatever else I'm carrying around with me. Nice touch not painting the area behind them either so there's just big white spots with anchors sticking out of them. Really contributes to making this gym feel like the cheap gym it is. Other PFs are getting new equipment: free weights, hacksquats etc (and putting it in the literally never used for it's purpose 30 minute room)...and we can't even get functional paper towel dispensers? Add to that the sheer and utter "dont give a crap" attitude of the folks who work there - today there was a dude, literally, working out shirtless. Leaving his sweat on every machine and not wiping anything down. I asked the staff to please at least get him to wipe shit down - naw, he's a regular, he can do that. Might as well take down the damn dress code sign and leave the nails it's attached with exposed, you know, in keeping with your chosen motif. I'm going to be departing very shortly for a gym that actually seems to care about what it's doing and isn't just rolling with whatever comes down the pike. At this point even the stinky retro around the corner appears to be a better option.

Very family orientated organization with great security to make you feel safe and protected. The icing on the cake is the employees and management are super nice. They do it right at the JCC to the gym, amenities, staff, security and even the little kids camp/school they have, the kids look like they're having a great time and making lots of friendships. Highly recommended. Side Note: (not from SF, Ca but from Bridgewater, NJ) local reviewer/critic.

There wasn't anyone at the desk for 25 minutes because the lady that was supposed to help me check in was actively working out in what I assume was the 5am class. Once she finally arrived at the desk and I was sitting right in front of her, she barely acknowledged me. I walked up to the desk and she just told me to write my name down. I told her it was my first time there and she pointed in different directions to quickly explain where the amenities. Unfortunately, there was minimal effort to help someone attending their first class at this studio. Additionally, I had a simple email issue that their help desk needed to resolve so I could finally book my additional classes. Ultimately, I had to call multiple times and ask for the reference number of the ticket so I could resolve the issue myself. I'll give 2 stars because the coaches I've experienced (Amy, Becca, Brett, and Brendan) all had great classes. I was hoping for the best, but I will not be returning to OTF somerville.

While visiting family, I…read moream always looking for ways to stay active despite being away from my local gym and yoga studios. Not only is this place close to where my family lives, but it's beautiful! Even though I only go to 2-3 classes here a year, the owner always remembers me and greets me warmly. The instructors could not be nicer or more professional, but the workouts are always well planned and fun. I also appreciate the gentle hands-on assists to correct my form and find them very helpful. I've noticed that instructors tend to call people out by name as well, which is very motivating and frankly pretty impressive. As mentioned earlier, the studio is beautiful, immaculately clean (this applies to the bathroom as well) and well stocked with tubes, balls and different weights. I can be quite a judgmental germophobe at times, but it's so clean in the barre room that I did not think twice about allowing my hair to touch the carpeting or using a studio mat. A few other nice features are the water bottle filling station, cubbies for storing your stuff, a boutique with some super cute workout gear and easy parking in a huge lot. The schedule offers classes at many times throughout the day and for all different levels. If I lived closer, I would definitely be a member here!
