Ignite Fitness — Local services in Town of New Paltz

I Was enjoying this gym as they had a month to month pay option no contract. I Did not want to sign a contract for the entire year as I was not sure if I would be in the area a year from now. No paperwork just paid for the month went in and started the treadmill. Noone showed me how to use any of the equipment noone showed me around. Nothin just walk in figure it all out on your own. Oook. So I was enjoying the treadmills and the low key atmosphere. Not crowded all the time 8am when i usually went. I had gotten sick with Bronchitis for a couple weeks did not go in. When I returned I told the receptionist I would like to pay for my next month. She had told me I would have to pay an extra $20.00 on top of my fee and it would only cover the rest of the month i was already in. Bringing my total to $60.00 WHAT!! I told her I did not have a contract no papers were signed that i was doing month to month. I was never told of any late fees. I was standing there dumbfounded. She stated there is still a late fee and I would have to pay in order to return. She stated she was sorry noone explained this to me when i started. Which I believe was her that took my first initial payment info. You give them your payment you sign your receipt which i used my credit card and that is the only paper work you sign. I was on a roll at the gym and I really was losing weight with the daily treadmill activity when I was going. Sooo stupid came out and I agreed to pay. I went several weeks after that and in my mind every single time I went back i had the most uncomfortable feeling just annoyed they do that to people. I was one of the people they got over on. I paid $60.00 for a month to work out on a treadmill at this gym. I am sure there are many other people that this had happened to and decided not to return. I have not returned and will not be going back. Total Rip off! If you do decide to use this gym. Sign up for reoccuring payments so it comes out each month.... sooo you are not LATE on your payment.... Even though there is no contract and you are paying month to month...if that makes...

I chose to work out here because it’s a convenient location for me and I wanted to support local establishment. If you go in the morning it’s usually great. Older folks who mind their business and are quiet.

The equipment is ok but not a great variety and missing more than one machine I would regularly use.

However, I’m considering leaving. If I have to go in the afternoon it’s nearly intolerable. I wish they would encourage and enforce some level of etiquette especially with the large population of college students in the afternoons.

I am a pretty chill person and have compassion for younger folks but the lack of consideration that these kids have for other folks in the gym is shocking. They flood in the afternoons and are loud, disruptive, crowding other folks space, having conversations across the gym.

I’ve had to ask for space many times for kids just sitting having a loud conversation nearly on top of me.

There are some signs posted about dropping weights and stuff but there seems to be no guidelines on etiquette and it’s just an awful place to work out in the afternoon because of this.

For the price I want a shower and better equipment...

Went here so that I could get some peace and quiet and it was the opposite. The “janitor” who didn’t tell me at first if he worked there made me and my wife extremely uncomfortable. First he walked in as I was recording my bench set to send to my coach saying he doesn’t want to be on camera and they never used to allow cameras, but they do now, just ranting. There was no reason for him to walk in front of me and my camera I was doing this exercise. He proceeded to stare at us afterwards, we put our weights back and cleaned up. on our way out of the room he touched my wife for no reason. In the next room after my last set of back extensions he said are you done with that? Didn’t even give me a chance to put it back. I said yes I just finished give me a second. I approached him at the end of our workout asking him if he worked there. He was reluctant to tell me and asked why I wanted to know. I said because you’re following us around making us uncomfortable. I told him that we always put our weights back, and he doesn’t need to follow me to make sure. It seems like he was friendly with the men in the gym, I guess not the women. I...
