First place I ever climbed in. Less than a month later, I decided to become a member and have been…read moreone ever since. The Central Rock Gym separates their routes using hold colors which is much better than gyms that put stickers near each route. The gym is clean and staff if very friendly. A member of the staff, James, had a strong role in getting us into the sport.

My interaction with the staff has always been a pleasant one; they definitely know what they're…read moredoing and are definitely passionate about rock climbing. The facilities are also well-maintained since they are clean and properly managed. My biggest concern for this place, however, is the affordability of the memberships. I'm sure the up-keeping of the facility can be expensive, but the prices only attract a particular group of people. Perhaps this is intentional; I am always looking for places that seek to incorporate diversity, both economically and racially. Keeping up with the monthly membership price is surely not sustainable for someone who lives off minimum wage or, even for someone who makes a bit more. Thus, though this can be a fun and safe place for the community, it lacks the actual representation of the latter. Moreover, no incentive programs currently exist to make this place a bit more affordable for the average working-class family in the city. Now, while they do have a family plan, it is exclusively for immediate family. I tried to create a membership with my older brothers but, was told that the family membership was only for my spouse and children. of which I have neither. This is truly a disappointment since with the single membership, you can only bring a guest with you once a month; after that there is a fee. So, if you're someone like me, who likes to bring a friend along to help with climbing or to encourage you with working out, this isn't the place for you. Unless of course, you friend wants to purchase a membership, too. But again, it´s just not cost-efficient or worth it for the average low/medium income person. But, for those of you who make a good amount of money, this place can definitely be worth it. They offer a wide range of workout classes and opportunities to get better at rock climbing. You'll just want to make sure you're taking advantage of everything- to make the dollar count. Overall, I really enjoy rock climbing, and this facility is truly well-managed and maintained. It has a lot of potential to actively engage with the community it's in; however, whether intentional or not, it greatly lacks in being a racially and economically diverse space. This is truly unfortunate for a place as fun and engaging as this one can be. Frankly, it's intimidating when you can count, with one hand, the number of people of color during a typical night, or even to witness the non-existence of the lower/ lower-middle class. And if you're from Worcester, you know it's a large community they're keeping out, a community that is greatly diverse. This facility has the opportunity to bring people together, but unfortunately, the prices hinder this from doing so and have instead, settled for just one particular group. And oh! the prices just recently went up $5.00 for all memberships.

The marshmallow sauce at the ice cream stand is actually just melted fluff so it hardened on the ice cream / teeth really quickly which made it unenjoyable. That's the one thing I would avoid.

Joined almost 2-years ago. Instructors are great - love them. Frankly they don't get paid enough…read morefor what they do. Lately, the class schedules have been bouncing around with some instructors leaving. Some classes are FULL and your are locked out. No - you cannot attend the class it is full. This has led to my recent disappointment with FA. When you pay monthly - yes you are able to signup to multiple locations for early morning and late afternoon workouts. However, some locations are easier to get to than others. Some locations are tiny/small and it leaves little breathing room during workouts - like the Shrewsbury location. Hudson is huge - but only good if you live close to that location as getting by 495 and Mass Pike these days is a PITA. When I reached out to express my recent feedback and dissatisfaction - thru a support group email, I was brushed off as go to another location or sign up earlier. Wow.. what is sickening is all this false talk of join the FA Family.. and setting you up for success is about as deep as a puddle - just marketing and they really don't mean it. You go and pay your dues and if FA wants to cancel the 6:30 pm classes that you liked - or they introduce some class that limits it to 12 people then you just are 'waitlisted' and shut out of the class - well - they really don't care. You should have signed up 30 days ago. You can drive 30 mins to another location or fight traffic to go to Hudson. However if you cancel because your work expects you to stay longer - you get stuck in traffic or your kid gets sick, then you may get hit with a $25.00 or $10.00 fine for cancelling late or not showing. I asked other gyms recently and they don't have cancellation fees or no show fees. They expect everyone to be a responsible adult but that isn't how FA is running things. They fine you. (stick vs carrot approach - because they want to set you up for success and build good habits..) lol So after my back and forth via email to some arbitrary fitness asylum support email group over the last few days after being shut out of my favorite workout time slot - well here I am writing a not so rave review of a gym that I used to look forward to going to. FA has changed and it isn't the great gym that it used to be. With membership fees jumping - and the lack of membership care, I'd recommend looking for another place to join. Sorry FA - the 3 stars was generous and only because you have good instructors.

The class is about 45 min and we did the workout with a partner for a "You Go - I Go" class. We did about 30 sec of exercise then 30 sec of rest as we switch off. We went for two sets around each station. The class seemed to go by fast since we're really moving along. No time to get bored which I like compared to going to a gym on my own having to think of what to do. You can try it out for $19 for 3 sessions. The energy is great, staff and people are too. Men and women are there to get fit and not put on a show. It's up beat and encouraging. As a beginner not having worked out for quite some time and being out of shape I felt good about being there. Going slow doing modified weights and movements got me through the entire session. I definitely felt all the muscles I haven't used after the 2nd day. The place is a fixed up auto garage shop and they made it work. The space in Hudson is bigger than Grafton so I imagine the class sizes are different based on size. Plenty of free parking. Given its winter bring your foot gear as you don't want to bring in salt and sand into the work out area. After one class I can see how strength and better fitness is achieved and signed up for my 2nd class which also went well. I've registered four my 3rd class and signed up for a membership cuz I'm motivated to get in shape. Every person I've met have said it's a life changer and I won't regret it. So far I'm pumped and can't wait to see results. Being 40 lbs heavy and feeling blah I'm excited that I'm off the couch! Give the 3 class trial a go!

I found the website http://www.bubblesoccerusa.com/ and contacted them with simple questions about venue assistance and pricing. Days later, somebody from MA Sports League contacts me with a couple of answers and a higher price than advertised on that site, so I pointed it out to them. They told me package 3 was listed $600 on the site, yet it obviously says $500. I pointed out this pricing error multiple times, then after a few emails, when I declined their business due to lack of transparency and bait-and-switch marketing, the owner Matthew Pettinato replied with multiple insults, condescension, and some sort of machismo he felt was warranted in this situation. It was even borderline threatening at times. I just don't see how a company can survive this day when they treat somebody who is trying to give them money like this. Maybe it is by the people who fall for the bait-and-switch pricing. The owner clearly has some anger management issues and a false sense of grandeur. I would avoid at all costs.
