    Still in good shape, some deeper cleaning needed, but overall, this gym remains a nice workout…read morelocation in the In-Shape system and we enjoy coming here after work or after a work meeting. Parking is pretty easy and free at 3 nearby parking garages w/90 minutes validation, which would be much better at 120 minutes b/c 90 minutes really isn't enough when we have to change into workout clothes, and then wash up after getting all sweaty from exercising and have to walk to the gym and back from the parking garage, all those minutes add up. Another thing about limited time is the LIMITED HOURS that this gym is open. It'd be better if it wasn't open so early but open till later on weekends.

    Beautiful gym located in the heart if downtown Sacramento. World class equipment with an awesome…read morestaff. Recently made this my main gym and the gains have been incredible. They have plenty of dumbbells from 5 pounders to 120 pounds. Cardio machine of all kinds. Bathrooms and lockers are always very clean as well. The sauna here is awesome as well as the steam room. Roof top basketball court is always available. I've even attended a birthday party here for my nephew and we ran some basketball games and enjoyed the lounge area on the top floor. Can't say enough about this gym. Lots of mirrors to catch every angle of the work I put in. I would highly encourage everyone to sign up for a trial and see what you think of this location yourself. It's worth every penny.

    I love this club. I've taken a loooonnnng time to write this, thinking I should experience more…read moreactivities, but Yelp keeps reminding me every time I check in and I probably won't dabble in more activities, so let's do this! All the staff is so nice, including the membership coordinators, the front desk check-in staff, the instructors (even those you haven't even taken a class from), the café staff, and even the cleaning ladies. I've had long conversations with the front desk, café, and janitorial staff. One Zumba instructor I play pickleball with sometimes! My primary activity is pickleball, of course! This is the premier place to play pickleball in the greater Sacramento area. Sure, you can struggle to play on a public court or join other sports clubs with pickleball, but where do all the pros eventually gather, and where are the most local tournaments held? It's here at the Johnson Ranch Pickleball Complex (South facility) with its 24 beautiful and maintained courts. The beauty of Johnson Ranch's pickleball is that it's not hard to find open play. It's also organized by skill level, unlike the public courts. We have a pickleball director, multiple pro instructors, and 3 pickleball event organizers putting together fun events for us: the popular Kings/Queens of the Court, women's/men's/mixed doubles events, ladders, MLP teams (I can't wait!), beginner Pickleball 101 classes free to the public, Challenge the Pros game, prize challenges, Live Ball and other drill classes, and pickleball classes and camps. You can also reserve a pickleball court or a swim lane for free with your membership. All our pickleball courts are lighted until 10 pm! Gym equipment, swimming pools, hot tubs, and children's wading pools can be found here. The group exercise studio and cycling studio are also at the South facility. Other than pickleball, these are my favorite classes: 10 AM Aqua Fit Class (M W F Sat Sun) Dance Fusion Class (Thu 2x, Sat with instructors Lori N or Ali B) Sometimes, I will go to Julia's 4:30 Warrior Flow Yoga class on Thursday before Dance Fusion class. I should try more classes, but they all conflict or compete against pickleball or aqua fit class. The Aqua Fit ladies like to chit chat and celebrate birthdays monthly with a potluck after class. To celebrate, one woman sometimes brings her homing pigeons to release, and they fly home...so cool! Kathee on Mondays and Wednesdays is the instructor I interact with most. Kelly on Fridays seems to be the most popular with her water aerobics class. The Dance Fusion instructors Lori and Ali have years of dance training in different types of dance. The rest of us in class are just trying to keep up and wishing to look as hip, coordinated, and graceful as them. We're working on the Beyonce Texas Hold Em TikTok Dance currently! We've done the Shivers line dance and Michael Jackson's Thriller dance before. There are group classes in yoga, cardio, strength training, cycling, pilates, barre, and more. The morning group exercise devotees will often attend three classes in a row! The food and drink menus at the South cafe are extensive. I love the $1 slushies, which are what I want on a hot day. I need to try one of the homemade cookies someday. There's also homemade banana bread. You can hire a personal trainer or get private instruction in your sport of choice. Johnson Ranch offers after school programs and summer programs for kids (i.e., swimming, pickleball camps), as well as child care. You can contact a membership coordinator or sign up online for a free one week trial: https://www.sparetimesportsclubs.com/free-one-week-membership/ During the summer, there is sometimes a free two week trial if you contact AmyH@sparetimesportsclubs.com Last year, I won a free two week membership from spinning the prize wheel during a Friday Night Lights pickleball party. To look for pickleball events at Johnson Ranch, sign up for a free account on the Playtimescheduler.com website. Free 5 PM beginner Pickleball 101 lessons are usually in a brown circle on the 1st and 3rd Fridays every month. The free 6-9 PM Friday Night Lights party open to the public is usually in a brown circle on the 3rd Friday. On the last Friday of the month, you can bring in 4 free guests. Time is precious. If you want to play and improve at pickleball quickly, this is the place to be.

    Great staff, beautiful grounds and fun events! Any event hosted here is run so well that other…read morepickleball facilities could learn lessons from it. Every coach here is wonderful and Samantha, the director, is amazing! I highly recommend this place!

    I'm very disappointed with how this club treats its swim team members…read more Although we pay both membership fees and swim team fees, swimmers are not allowed to use club towels, spa facilities, or the adult locker room, even when children are accompanied by adults and under supervision. Meanwhile, these amenities are available to other members. This creates a clear sense of inconsistent and unfair treatment toward a specific group of paying members. What is particularly frustrating is that these rules and differences in treatment were not clearly explained at the time of joining or during the sign-up process. Members are not made aware in advance that swimmers may be treated differently or have more restricted access compared to other members. There have also been repeated instances where a female parent has entered the boys' locker room many many times, which raises additional concerns about how locker room access rules are being enforced and managed. I have raised these issues with management, but they have not been addressed in a transparent or satisfactory way. If you are considering joining with children in the swim team, I would strongly recommend asking very specific questions about facility access and how policies are applied before committing.

    Came here for a fundraiser pickleball tournament. Very nice clean facility. I was impressed by how…read moremany courts they have. Both pickleball & tennis courts. They have about 22 tennis courts and 10 dedicated pickleball courts. There's plenty of parking.

    Lifetime Folsom is not a gym... it's a full-blown civilization…read more Met a friend here for a workout, and since she's not a member, we had to do the whole guest pass process first. You know... the "tap here, sign here, acknowledge that squats may humble you today" routine. But I've got to give credit where it's due -- the front desk made it ridiculously easy. They were handling a phone call and getting my friend squared away at the same time, and somehow still made it all look smooth. No chaos, no confusion, no "uhhh let me get my manager." Just straight-up professionalism. The second we walked in, she looked around and said, "Is this a city or a gym?" I said, "Honestly... both." Because Lifetime Folsom is not for the weak or the directionally challenged. This place has everything. Pool, spa, cafe, workout floors, recovery zones, pickleball, tennis, locker rooms that feel fancier than some apartments... at one point I'm pretty sure if you turn the wrong corner you accidentally enroll in a wellness retreat. And my favorite part? The confidence people have before a workout. She came out of the locker room with that movie trailer energy like, "Alright, let's do this." Looking at me like, "Bring it." And I did. I coached her through the workout, and for the first 20 minutes she was hanging in there strong. Then somewhere around that 1 hour and 30 minute mark, the spirit left the body. By the end, the look had changed from "I got this" to "I would like to formally unsubscribe." And honestly? Respect. Because the workout was solid. We laughed the whole time, had great conversation, and got after it. That's what I love about Lifetime -- whether you're going hard or just trying to survive the stair climber without seeing your ancestors, it somehow still feels fun. After we wrapped up, we grabbed our stuff and headed to the cafe because recovery was no longer optional. She needed a pick-me-up, and honestly, probably a new set of legs. We grabbed shakes, sat down, and started coming back to life. Then out of nowhere she goes, "Ummm... tacos?" And I looked at her like she had just spoken the Lord's language and said, "Yes." Then she hits me with, "I got the spot. Follow me." Now THAT is elite leadership. So basically this place gave us: a killer workout, laughs, smoothies, and the launching point for Taco Tuesday. What more do you want from a gym? A zip code? Actually... Lifetime might already have one. In all, Lifetime Folsom continues to prove it's way more than just a gym. It's an experience. It's a fitness amusement park. It's where confidence goes to get tested and where post-workout taco plans are born. And honestly... that's beautiful.

    This club is beautiful. It has tons of classes, lots of equipment, decked out locker rooms with…read morelocks, indoor pool, outdoor pool, places to sit and work. I joined this gym specifically because of loving to play pickle ball. Their app is very helpful and let me know they had open play on a Monday morning so I showed up, but everybody was already playing and it wasn't clear how open play worked because it looked like nobody was waiting but me. So I went back into the club and asked the pro how it worked, he walked me out and asked a group of ladies if they would mind me rotating in. They told him sure. However, they joked around about who was gonna get stuck with me on their team because I was new. I had a lot of fun playing, but it was really clear that when it came time to rotate, nobody wanted me on their team. I didn't think I played that badly. I came back when I could play with my husband and loved it. Then the club had a tournament so we joined. At the beginning, I ranked in the bottom tier, which was fine because I was still new and there were others in the tier with me. During the tournament I met other really nice people who were also figuring things out like I was. However, I progressively got better and kept moving up the tournament ranks until one night I made it onto a pretty decent group of players who I hadn't yet played with. The first serve to me was a screwball serve, so I missed it. They immediately stopped the game and said I didn't belong there. All 3 players walked off the court and got the pro and told the pro that I must be in the wrong court. She assured them I was on the correct court. It was humiliating and very awkward because I was definitely not welcomed. And it was hard to put my head in the game, so I reinforced their assumptions by not playing my best. Interestingly, when that same man served to one of the others, she blamed the ball saying that there was something wrong with it and threw it away, but when I had missed, it had to be something with my abilities. Just very unfriendly. I tried another open play another time, but it was also awkward. Everybody seemed paired off, and there were no rotations or invitation to join. I kept wondering if I simply didn't know the protocols and the pros/staff were no where to be found, so no facilitating the game play. My husband went to another night's open play and he said it was super awkward because the pros/staff weren't facilitating that night either. So he stood around like I had, and not sure how to get involved since the pro/ club staff seemed MIA that night too. I think the experience would be so much better if the pros or staff facilitated open play. Players definitely have feelings about new people so a structured facilitation would be really helpful. Overall this club has so many great features but open play pickleball isn't one of them.
