The equipment is old. The ceiling is low…read more It feels like a big hotel gym. The Staff looks depressed. Don't drop the equipment or use Super heavy weights because one of the Staff members will ask you to not disturb the spa next-door. The music sounds depressing and it's played through an intercom system. But it's the only full gym on the side of town. It closes a little too early. You are sharing with Hotel guest. That may not know what they're doing. So I only maybe recommend it. The few positives include: You can probably find the equipment you're looking for. It's not overly crowded, unless there's a convention of annoying people in town like yesterday. They keep it clean. Generally, I feel it's overpriced for the value. But again, it's the only one on the side of town So get a tour and figure out if it's for you.

The membership experience is pretty poor thus far. I have only been a member for a month. It is…read moreconvenient in distance, hours-open and in the variety of equipment, however the communication to members is really lacking. It took me about a month to get enough response back from the manager to join. Once I joined I emailed several logistical follow up questions and have never received a response. As far as I know there is no email newsletter or online schedules. I went to one class so far and there was no one attending, I arrived right at the class time and the teacher was packing up because no one was there. Like I said, from an equipment standpoint, there is everything you need, it is not the top of the line, but everything seems pretty well-maintained and in working order. Access to the hotel pools is also a plus. But it does not feel friendly at all, you are kind of left alone to figure things out. I came from very communal gym membership environments so it is quite a change.

I have been a member at this particular location for a while, and with the YMCA since 1989…read more However, I ended my membership after my grandson was bullied by a group of pickleball members. He was playing in the gym before they arrived. After some time, he came out crying because one of the men took his ball and put it away. When I reported the incident, one of the male staff members apologized and retrieved the ball. While I was comforting my grandson, telling him he did nothing wrong and that adults shouldn't be selfish and treat a nine-year-old child that way, I told him to stay near me and continue playing. At that moment, an ignorant female staff member, who was passing by, interjected, saying, "You can't play with the ball in this area." This is the second incident involving her discriminatory behavior towards my family. As I was leaving, deeply disappointed by the behavior--especially since this is supposed to be a Christian establishment--I saw Joseph and informed him. He stated that she shouldn't have said anything to me, as the matter did not involve her. A few weeks after I left, I stopped by to file a formal complaint and asked to speak to Brian, the director or manager of this location. He showed no empathy and instead stated that children should not be left alone. I am 55 years old, a former teacher, and a current paralegal. I was intentionally monitoring my grandson while sitting directly outside the gym in the vending area. This place has changed from a family-friendly, community-oriented place to a worldly, non-family-friendly environment for minority families.

It's your typical college fitness center. I think they have seven basketball courts and one indoor…read moresoccer court all on the first floor. Above that is indoor track that runs around the whole space. You have to go downstairs to find weightlifting floor. I was expecting a light and fresh place, similar to Equinox. Instead, the walls are a light beige, making it seem kind of muddy, and the light is a little yellowish too. I was also a little surprised that they didn't have more squat racks (four). Although the number that they have for here is more than adequate I guess. They also have two Olympic lifting platforms which, interestingly enough, were being used all the time when I was there. It's nice to see people doing Olympic lifts, I used to think no one ever knew about them. Lockers Non-descript. The type where you bring your own lock, though most of the lockers are not day lockers but people's personal lockers. The showers seemed decent. Also, it seems one of the sinks was having issues, have no idea how long that had been going on but they way it was talked about seemed like it had been that way for a while.

Wow, this place is great! Super clean, super new, super cool :) The basketball courts are magnets…read morefor students wanting to start pick up games, and the rock climbing wall nearby looks like a lot of fun as well. They also have lines of cardio equipment, so you don't have to fret about not having one~ The swimming pool has a few lap lanes, a family wading pool, and an outdoor section with beach chairs as well. The area is pretty popular, so be prepared to circle swim ^^b kickboards and buoys are provided in a corner~ If you're not a student, then it's $10 per visitor for a day pass at the front desk. You can buy 10 passes for a slightly discounted price. I wish my university or current school had/has a student center as awesome as this one! The visitor pricing is a little steep for me for a single visit, but for students, this gem is free (sans tuition). Definitely don't miss an opportunity to stop by once!

I found GRIT on Insta with a special for $39 for two weeks. I was able to squeeze a few classes in,…read moreand then I won a free month of unlimited classes on IG that started 9/2. Yay me! Now I really get to check this place out even though I already love it here. When you sign up you can take classes at this location or their SMU location (above Barley House). They offer classes from kickboxing, barre type classes, cardio, weight training and even have a spin studio. The classes I have taken each have pumpin' music and you do the exercises to the beat of the music and are led by an instructor. Each instructor I have had, have been fun, and energetic. The classes are big so you watch and listen to the instructor to see what to do at each move. I love classes where you're on your own but have the community vibe too. Not that I don't like working out with men but there's something nice about an all female gym where you feel a little bit more at ease. I have seen one or two guys in here so it looks like they can take a class? I am fully digging this place and liking the scheduled, and all the different work outs to choose from. Parking feels a little challenging being off Irving Blvd but I have never had an issue. You check in at the front desk and go to your workout room. The instructor/coach will give you further instructions. When leaving make sure you put up any equipment and wipe down your mat with the cleaners and paper towels provided. The GRIT app is so easy to use and you see the full schedule of classes at both studios. There are descriptions of the classes and will let you know if sneakers, grip socks or being barefoot is required.

It's never crowded, towels are always in abundance, the place is very clean and the environment is very friendly. Josh, the Manager is a great example of someone who never forgets who the customer is, like some of the bigger clubs. He enjoys his work, being there and will go the extra distance to be sure you have a great experience while in the club. Trophy Fitness has fantastic trainers that are always happy to help. Kelly. the owner, listens to his members/customers and responds to them. I also recommend the Trophy Elevation downtown as well. I've been a member at Mockingbird for 10 yrs and would give them my highest ratings and recommendations!
