I signed up, followed the instructions in the email, and showed up. There's plenty of parking on the street or in the parking lot behind the yoga studio. Upon arrival I met Sherrie, who informed about where to setup and the props we'd be using for the class. They have all the props you need. Instruction during the class was clear and easy to follow. It was a very clean studio. Overall, the class was perfect for the level I was looking for, which was gentle yoga. It seems the class is made up of regulars, whom were very friendly and welcoming. I will be coming back when I'm in town. Thank you!

They are so much fun to attend, and you will walk away with a great experience, a smile and an amazing craft.

Let me start by saying that I am not a gym rat. Having had experiences at both Marina and Salinas I…read morewill say that mostly the equipment is newish and in working order. The rehab staff at both sites are exemplary, the pools, not so much. The pool in Salinas has been out of commission for close to a year (as of 4/26), so those of us that rely on aqua therapy have been left behind. When dealing with staff there was very little assistance offered, but quite a bit of attitude. Since it's covered by our insurance, unlike other gyms in town, we'll probably just wait until it's repaired, since no one offered us the possibility of just going to Marina.

I wanted to share some honest feedback about my experience at Montage Wellness Salinas because the…read morelevel of customer service has been really disappointing lately. For a facility that likely brings in thousands of dollars in memberships, the professionalism at the front desk, especially during evenings and weekends, is lacking. Multiple times I've walked in to see multiple employees working at once, yet none of them greet members as they come in. Instead, they're sitting at the front desk eating full meals, on their phones, looking miserable or using personal laptops. A front desk at a gym should feel welcoming and attentive, not like employees are hanging out socially. Customer service etiquette seems to be missing during these shifts. When members walk in, there should at least be a simple acknowledgment like "hello" or "have a good workout." Unfortunately, that basic level of service isn't consistently happening. I do want to acknowledge that Randy, Diana, and the woman who usually works mornings are excellent. They are friendly, professional, and actually make members feel welcome when they arrive. Their attitude reflects the type of service you would expect from a wellness facility. However, the evening and weekend staff, particularly the guys and the other woman who work those shifts, seem to need additional training. Working at a gym doesn't just consist of sitting behind the front desk. It involves engaging with members, maintaining a professional environment, and making sure the facility is running smoothly. Another frustrating issue is the water fountains. Both fountains are currently not functioning properly and only work using the push option. There is a sign telling members to use the fountain near the restroom instead, but that one doesn't work either. For a wellness facility, something as basic as functioning water fountains should be a priority. Overall, it's frustrating to see such a nice facility fall short in areas that should be simple to fix: professionalism, basic customer service, and facility maintenance. I've noticed a clear difference in the level of service compared to the location in Marina, which feels much more professional and welcoming. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and considers providing additional training and oversight.

We observed Mrs. Heather in the adult class and even though my daughter really wanted to stay and join her class she wants to be involved with recitals and the adult class doesn't participate in recitals so she will have to join the teen class. Hopefully she likes it because she is very quiet and shy . I was recommended by family and friends and so far so good!

I can't say enough good things about this gym and if I could give them 6 stars I would. I was…read morereally, really out of shape when I started here. It had been about a decade since I worked out daily. Many years ago, I was a devoted Pilates Coach/Ball Fitness Studios fan when I lived in Reno. And since then, I've never found a place I really loved or remained committed to. 2SA welcomed me and challenged me in ways I've never been challenged. I tried boxing and Piyo for the first time, loved both. Amanda's classes were great and she even ran over and held my hand doing lunges so I could get into the correct position. With pretty large class sizes, that really says a lot about the instructor. Most of her students had been with her for years, no other place in Monterey Bay has that kind of cult following this gym and its instructors have. Most people want to work out in a place where everyone looks like their ideal physique, and the people who attend this gym are definitely athletes. If you can get over your own insecurities and put in the work, you will love it here. Lastly, customer service is how it should be. Cancelling is easy. Signing up is easy. The monthly payment is low. There are no gimmicks or upselling or hassles. Just show up when you want to try a class and if you like it, join! Unfortunately with COVID I've been home doing Beachbody. I have a small child and can't make the drive over there for the foreseeable future. If I lived in Salinas, I'd be there in a heartbeat!
