The little gym is a nice place. I haven't used it for lessons, just a birthday party. It was a…read morereally nice little party for the 4 year old set.. however... the price was unreal. I think for a two hour party it was over $250 which is just nuts. The place is clean, the staff is nice blah blah blah but they really cater to the high end folks who believe their three year old is the next big Olympian, and is willing to pay for the ability to remain deluded.

We typically don't make negative comments services provided at venues we've booked but we've never…read moredealt with service like this before. We would like to point out several issues we had this past weekend. We've read nothing but good things about the little gym of Langley for the most part so it was very disheartening that our family would be given this poor service that we had to comment and make management aware. 1. Communication. Our party was booked for 1:30pm on Saturday January 18. We made several attempts to contact The Little Gym of Langley via phone and text during the week to try to confirm what the inclement weather policy would have been in case the venue wasn't open due to weather. We only found out that the venue was closed for the whole week when we decided to drive to the venue on January 17th to see if we could speak to someone. At the least somebody should have advised us of the potential of closure of the venue and inclement weather policy instead of us having to stress out about whether or not the venue would be open and if we would have to arrange alternative place to hold our daughters 1stbirthday. This was extremely poor customer service. 2. We arrived at the venue shortly after 1pm on January 18th, the staff arrived at the same time. The venue was extremely cold, especially the play area. This is not ideal for small children. The building was closed the whole week and heat was obviously not on. That is not a comfortable setting. The staff did turn up the heat but the play area stayed quite cold for the duration of the hour of play time. The upstairs party area was fine after a while but this was not ideal. 3. Cleanliness. I am not sure what the protocol of the venue is in regards to regular cleaning but the both the play area and the upstairs party area were not very clean. The play area and equipment was very dusty. This is not ideal or considerate of children who have dust allergies or asthma. I myself have a dust allergy and asthmatic bronchitis and could definitely feel the dust. The party room area tables were all sticky and unclean, the staff put table cloths over the tables but still that is not something we want to see. 4. This is directly off of the The Little Gym of Langley website. "An Awesome Birthday Bash party is an hour and a half and includes: a qualified birthday leader plus an assistant, all the set-up and clean-up, paper goods (plates, forks, cups, napkins), drinks for each child in the party room, a gift registry (if you open your presents while you're with us), balloons for decoration, a The Little Gym t-shirt for the Birthday Child, and invitations (either through Evite or printed, addressed, stamped and mailed for you!)" - Plates were provided but they were small plates meant for children, not regular lunch size paper plates or anything. This is not ideal for adults. I even asked for paper plates to be brought out but nobody did. - Forks, cups and napkins were not brought out. I went into the drawers myself to find as many plastic forks as I could find and brought them out myself and there still wasn't enough for each piece of cake we were giving out to our guests. We brought our own cups for the kids and bottled water for the adults but no paper cups were provided for the pop and juice that we brought in for adults to drink as well. Napkins were not provided. We brought some of our own but not enough for everyone. There were rolls of paper towel available at the sinks only. We had asked for all this to be brought out but nobody brought them out and no explanation was provided. There were no plastic spoons at all. - We were not provided drinks for each child in the party room. I asked about this as well and the associate asked if I had asked for them. I shouldn't have to ask for things that are clearly supposed to be provided. - Some balloons for decoration were provided. - There was no t-shirt provided for my daughter - No invitations were provided but we didn't care about that. There was clearly no organization, preparation or planning by the staff for our party. The venue was closed for the whole week and they arrived about 20 minutes prior to the beginning of the party. That is not enough time to ensure everything I mentioned above could be planned for. We appreciate the use of the venue and believe that with proper organization, preparation and service that wonderful parties have taken place at the venue but that was not the case for us. It was our daughter's first birthday and we were definitely hoping for much better service than what was provided for the price that we paid. I asked about these issues when I went to pay at the end of the party and was provided with silence and "I'm not sure if we do that here" as responses. That is unacceptable. We sent an email to management on January 20th but still have not received any response either so obviously they don't care.

The court lines are nicely laid out and the floor has a nice feel to it, which is great on the knees. There are change rooms as well as a place to refill your water bottle. There is also a flat screen tv as well as comfy couches to watch others play. Rental rates ranges form about $24 to $32. This place also has lessons as well as paddles to rent. The last great thing is that there are no membership fees. The downside? It is far, it's at the outskirts of Richmond and courts get booked up really fast so it is hard to book courts. Saying this, this place is really nice and has a private club feel to it, but without the membership or price.

I truly believe, as hard as it was and as hard as I worked, that I wouldn't have achieved my outcome without Maria. Not only did she provide knowledge and guidance, she gave me confidence and support. She made the entire experience better. There is no way to measure the value of everything she has done for me. I will never forget , and never be able to express just how much it has meant to me. I know that this is just the beginning of a journey. I hope Maria will continue to be my guide through it all.

She's been the driving force behind my prep for multiple upcoming bodybuilding shows as I chase down my pro card, and I couldn't imagine doing this without her.

What makes Maria truly elite is her insane level of attention and heart. She checks in before I even have to ask, tweaks things the moment my body starts shifting, and always makes me feel seen, heard, and supported. It's like having a performance coach, accountability partner, and personal hype squad all in one. I'm stepping into show season with full confidence because I know Maria's got me covered on every level. If you want a coach who lives and breathes YOUR success--Maria isn't just the right choice, she's the only one.

OrangeTheory Fitness just opened a new location in SuterBrook on February 6, 2016. I was lucky…read moreenough to sign up before their grand opening to take advantage of promotional pricing. To be honest, I probably wouldn't have signed up otherwise, as their regular price ($160/month) is out of my budget. I attended my first training session this past weekend and I have to say, I was really impressed with their equipment. Everything is very high-end, top-of-the-line and the studio itself is very clean and well-organized, not to mention ORANGE! The music is very high-energy and well-suited to the environment and the workouts. The classes consist of a type of circuit training, where you switch between treadmills, rowing machines and weights/resistance training - and it's all based on your heart rate, which means anyone from beginner through to advanced levels can participate and benefit from the same class. I haven't been to a gym for a really long time (embarrassingly long!) but I was able to keep up and go at a pace that suited me. You're given a heart-rate monitor to wear during the workout and your information is displayed on screens in different locations throughout the studio so you can keep an eye on your progress. If you stay within your 'orange' zone (84% or higher of your maximum heart rate) for 12-20 minutes during each workout, you can burn an average of 500-1000 calories. My instructor, Jahnele, was amazing. She explained everything before we started and after the class, took a few minutes to explain the results on the screens and what it all meant to us as participants. She also said that each workout will vary, so it never gets boring. I'm very excited to start my fitness journey with OrangeTheory!

This is an excellent concept but a pretty poor execution at this location. First the positives:…read more -the trainers are great. -the concept of hr monitored high intensity group interval type training is great -the equipment is good and clean but a bit cramped together. Why the dismal two stars you ask? Well it's expensive, but that's not why, in fact I would be ok with the $169/unlimited or 139/8 sessions if there were classes available. They keep their prices pretty quiet and don't even tell you over the phone because they want you to come in, so here you have them. The number 1 reason that it's not worth it is that you can't get any classes, they reduced the number of classes a few months ago and are now full with the limited classes that they have. You have to book several days in advance. Plus they keep advertising challenges that encourage you to come in more frequently and pay for the higher unlimited package and once they have your money you realize that you can't even get into any classes because they are all full. So do your homework, if you want to try it, best to check another location and see if the classes of the day have space.
