I’m really disappointed because the same problem persists. It's unbelievable how many "influencers" are constantly recording themselves without any consideration for those around them, or even asking for permission to film people who are just trying to work on their bodies or clear their minds. Despite multiple complaints about this issue, the promises to resolve it are just empty words.

From people filming with wide-angle shots that capture others, to those taking off their shirts for a shirtless shoot—it’s gotten out of hand. Saturdays are the worst, where you can spot groups of up to six people training, accompanied by an entire filming crew that follows them around the gym. If you can even call it a gym at this point—it feels more like a fitness influencer studio.

Oh, and let’s not forget, some of their trainers are the first to set up their tripods and record themselves, so the claim that staff are enforcing the "no tripod" or "no Hollywood sets" policy is just false. It seems the management is being deceived by their own staff, who make them believe they’re enforcing these rules. The situation is only getting worse.

For those who find this kind of environment uncomfortable or undesirable, this is definitely not the gym to go to. It's better to look for...

I went to check out this gym a couple months ago and paid for a day pass, just to check it out. It was alright, I figured I'd probably get a membership. Well, fast forward to 2 months later and I got billed randomly and I called to ask the person at the front desk what it was about, they said something about a manager issue and gave me a customer service email to email to get a refund. I did, then I got an auto reply stating they were getting a high volume amount of emails and I would be in a queue to be contacted. I waited all day for something. I realized this customer service line was for every location so I had no idea how long it would take. So, I tried to contact my location again and asked for a manager. The person at the desk said they were with a client and they could give me their email. Well, I didn't want to email someone again so I asked them to return my call. And I never heard anything back. So, I wouldn't recommend this place because what is...

If you like a crowd of high school instagram wannabes glued to the mirror for selfies, this is your place! You’ll wonder if it’s an actual gym or a casting call for Kardashians or Riverdale. Cancelled our membership after 6 months when we finally realized this wasn’t a gym but a staging area for teen social media feeds. When “trainers” are more focused on recording their butt-flossed “subjects” than working out, you get the idea. The only things missing are the stripper poles. Instead of towels, they should hand out signed NDAs at the desk.

There’s a reason classy gyms in this price range have strict “no video or selfie” policies in the exercise areas- because they run a GYM, not a recording studio for high school vanity projects. They also don’t want to attract the pervs who love the free floor show.

Too bad this was a decent gym until the “influencer”...
