    Moved from the city and couldn't find a good gym until I found this one! Great hours, friendly staff, towel service, pool, track, heavy bag, great machines, basketball court, trainers and classes. Checks all my boxes!

    If I could give the gym 10 stars I would. I have fallen in love with the cycling classes conducted by JoJo. I have attended her classes faithfully for months now and I see so many changes. I am building definition in my legs and arms and I ride so much better than when I started. S...

    Awesome facilities and staff. It's a little bit more pricier than the neighborhood gyms but it id SO worth it! It's not a pick up party spot just simply a gym. When you are there that is why everyone else is there.

    This is my Oasis. The place I go to work on improving my health. And to be around those who are also striving to do the same. And for the majority of the time, I come out feeling ready to take on the world. And look Damn Good doing it! Chicka Shines, okay!

    The healing from the sauna, therapy pool, and whirlpool have been beyond my expectations. I have very tight muscles from broken neck and spinal cord crushing. I can almost walk normally after just a few weeks. Should have started a year ago!

    Love going to this location! Nice, clean facility with friendly and educated staff. The classes offered are great and led by top-notch teachers, but my favorite part has got to be the Kid Zone. The ladies who watch the kids are absolutely fantastic. What a wonderful setup and play ...
