It's not two kids at a time, it's 10-15 kids at a time. As I pulled around the corner in the parking lot I saw all these kids running towards me. I'm glad I wasn't going fast because it would have been a disaster. This is a very busy parking lot with people from the caterer and the groomer pulling in and out all day. Believe me, the cars race around that corner. I tried to explain to the young man that was standing there, "holding the line" how dangerous it was. Another young man came up and said they have been doing this for the past 10 years. Not sure how, because he was A teenager himself, and the place has only been opened for a year. He tried to explain it wasn't illegal and I agreed it wasn' but it's dangerous. There are 10-15 kids racing each other in a busy parking lot. He did explain, the young man "holding the line " would get hit first when someone came around the corner. I sincerely hope no one gets hurt, and that parents are aware of the parking lot races.

Recently, I was in the market for trying something new because Groupon adventures add interest to my life. This was one of them. 1st day of instruction went something like this: We show up, do some basic movements, pair up, practice, and somewhere in between we switch partners and I am paired with a 200lb wrestler. HAH! After getting shaken around a bit, still scared out of my mind and questioning my choices up to that point, I got a great workout, a load of information, and some very useful self-defense moves. Bless these guys for going easy on me because I do not have any sort of muscle definition. I bet if I come here often enough I can one day overtake them because BJJ is more so about skill than it is about strength. The instructor Josh was very patient with us. We came in with no experience and he was able to skillfully show us how to do BJJ even if it took a couple of times. Can't say this type of workout is for everyone since it's a full contact sport but, was very fun and an incredible workout. Would highly recommend this place to anyone, amateur or pro who wants to improve their skill because the skills you learn are definitely useful. Keep in mind this place is not aesthetically pleasing and not the cleanest because people keep sweating profusely but, it's still a great learning experience with awesome people who know their craft so, that's why I gave it 5 stars. Definitely, check out their site for schedules and such because there's more info on there. Give it a chance if you're up for the challenge!

From the first greeting when I arrive until the goodbye when I leave, the service feels friendly and genuine. The entire facility is always clean, well maintained, and kept in excellent condition. The equipment is top-notch, and there is a wide range of options for strength training, cardio, swimming, and fitness classes. I also play pickleball here regularly, and the pickleball program is one of the main reasons I enjoy this location so much. The staff is always helpful, and the courts are excellent. I have played at other indoor facilities and on outdoor courts, and these are the nicest courts I have experienced. Parking is also easy. There is a large garage with plenty of available spaces, so finding parking has never been a problem. The price is definitely at the premium end, but you are getting a premium facility. Between the excellent staff, high-quality equipment, lap pool, extensive fitness classes, pickleball courts, cleanliness, and overall atmosphere, I believe the membership is well worth it.

Unfortunately, I had a serious underlying medical condition I wasn't aware of that started manifesting during training and I had to cut it short. Fortunately my doctors figured it out, I'm improving and starting to get active again, and hope to return someday soon. I had joined just on a month by month basis just to see what it's like. I have a very high pressure job and have absolutely no control over my day nor schedule, fly frequently, and to be frank many days I'm just very tired after a stressful long day at work.... so consistently and commitment are not my strong spots. I appreciated the opportunity to sign up on monthly without a longer term commitment, and don't mind at all paying for that convenience. I attended probably ten total sessions over the course of a few months, and here's what I found: - Great staff. From the young folks working the front desk to the trainers and to the folks that I assume were owners or management, everyone was personable, warm, and inviting. Don't let that fool you though - while the trainers were absolute accommodating of everyone's different skill and fitness levels and personal challenges, they made sure you got your money's worth and motivated and cheered, but also pushed, all in positive energy. - Great facility. There is a single very large room for the krav and kick boxing group sessions, then a smaller room of heavy backs, and then finally a large "crossfit" style room in the back. The large krav room is nicely padded, the boxing room had a lot of heavy bags, enough to accomodate a good sized group, and the crossift room had everything you would expect, like squat racks, ropes, boxes, balls, even pipes for warmups and stretches. IIRC they even have some protein for sale, which I appreciate. I believe they also sell new and used gear, so you can get boxing gloves there, and even buy like used kick shields and other gear they retire. - Great training all around. While this is primarily a Krav gym, they bring in other focal areas like boxing and workouts. The Krav sessions were a blast, learning general techniques like elbows, front and back kicks, etc. There were typically multiple trainers for each session. They session started with a warmup, typically some fast moving back and forth type of stuff, dynamic stretches etc. and then large group sessions where we paired up in twos or threes and went through the prescribed routines. This was always interesting because you never knew who you would get matched up with and there was a great age, gender and fitness diversity but everyone was very positive energy, friendly and supportive ... just some kicked a bit harder than the others :) The boxing sessions were smokers. This really opened up my eyes to just how much stamina is required in boxing; if you've never really intently thrown your hand at a large heavy bag before then you just don't realize how much it takes out of you. You need your own gloves, which you can get on your own or buy there. It's not a boxing gym, but I would call it like "boxing lite" - as an add-on to the krav sessions. There is no sparring ring for instance. I have never boxed before, and got a lot out of this training and enjoyed it a lot. The trainer to student ratio here was high as well since this is a smaller room which can't accommodate as many students as the main room. The general fitness sessions in the crossfit room were equally toasty, with some very fit men and women leading and attending the sessions. The diversity of training reminded me of my military days, with calistenics, weights, ropes, box jumping, etc. The warmups alone were kind of a full workout for me, and then they were followed by some pretty intense constant moving through a variety of exercises with the routines changing constantly. It was awesome using my entire body in such a variety of motions despite it being pretty tough for me. No one ever treated me dismissively; they simply let me catch my breath and then pushed me to continue on. Value for dollar here was extremely high for me. I do have a top plan at Columbia Association that I frequently use for myself and the family, but do have a gym dedicated to this type of training, complete with passionate trainers and a good student to trainer ration was really nice. Literally the only downsides I saw were that it's in a strip that has a tight parking lot, with not a ton of spaces available. I do wish there were more available on Sundays as my weekdays are just too challenging and unpredictable, but I still managed to make several sessions and have a great time.

Since I'm not really a class or group instructed fitness type of person, I never really thought about this location too heavily. Then my trainer dropped out of heaven especially for me!! We train here on a regular basis and I love all of what the gym has to offer. I get a full and intense work-out each and every time I'm here. Kettle bells, suicides, boxing, you name it, I do it here. Every single staff member is friendly and helpful. Always speaking to you, encouraging/motivating you, joking with you and just providing excellent customer service. The gym offers classes for children, as well as adults. I can't give specifics on the classes offered, because I'm not exactly sure what they are, but I do know I see repeat clients. So whatever classes they have, keeps them coming back, week after week. An actual boxing ring is on one side and artificial turf is on another, with boxing bags and other equipment located throughout. I love it! It's a much different gym than I'm use too. I have a membership at another gym and I haven't been there since I started at Level Up. Note to self: CANCEL THE OTHER MEMBERSHIP! I don't feel intimidated, nor do I feel like all eyes are on me. Granted, there are many more men than women here, but everyone is here for a reason. They're here to either perfect their craft or get an awesome work-out.

The staff does a great job in keeping the gym clean. The environment and staff is friendly. The energy they have can be contiguous. They offer a lot of workout options for kids, adolescent, and adults. They tend to have a lot of groups activities which cater to adults. Why my four stars. I think they could do a little more for the kids training. Since my children started they continue to keep them with the kids who are beginning. An issue for me since my kids have to restart the basic training which takes time from their training. They should keep the new incoming kids separated from the experienced. Once they catch up with the basic they can be included. Overall, I'll continue. It has help my girls in many positive ways. We might take a break but plan to continue in the future.
