LEVEL Fitness in Yorktown — Local services in Town of Yorktown

The gym there is okay, the people who work out there are nice. The Equipment is constantly broken and it takes forever to get fixed. The management there is terrible though. There is instructor on Saturdays who is really rude. Saturdays get really busy there and so it’s nice to pay for the premium membership to be able to work out in the studio. Well not so much because From 7-10am you will not be able to use the studio to get away from the busy crowd. You are paying for the premium membership for no reason. There is a class scheduled from 9-10am at the studio which his awesome however the really rude instructor arrives at 7am to “set up” and renders the entire space useless from 7-9. She is so rude and gave me a big attitude when I nicely asked her why She lays the equipment out all over the place as early as 7am when her class doesn’t stairs till 9. She got so upset. I told her that It’s honestly a huge liability. I have almost tripped and fallen several times over the equipment she lays out. I tried to speak to her nicely and she rudely told me that it’s because she doesn’t have time to set up before her 9am class because she teaches an 8am class downstairs and that I didn’t understand how difficult it was to do what she did. When I gave her a solution and asked her why she doesn’t have the rest of the crew and management help her set up before the class starts she smiled and told me “I didn’t understand”. I said okay and asked her if maybe she can have her class help her set up 5 minutes before. With over 40 people in her class it would take less than a minute or two to get it done. she basically told me I was being to much and to go complain to management and leave her alone. Before I even got a chance to finish my work out and go speak to them management came up to me. she must of went and spoke to the manager and told them a completely different story because they came to me and told me that I was wrong for speaking up and that unfortunately there’s nothing they will do. I told the manager several times this is a huge liability leaving the un used equipment all over the floor that someone can get injured and sue them. He said that’s fine just laughed it off and told me that if anyone got hurt they could just sue them. It’s absolutely ridiculous that they would take this approach. we pay extra to be able To use that room, if your class starts at 9 we should be able to use it with out having to worry about it. If anyone ever gets hurt there because of that reach out to me I have videos of their negligence. No un used gym equipment should be laid out on the ground for hours when it’s...

I have been a member of this gym for a year now, I have had nothing but a positive experience. I have the premium membership which gives me access to the studios, classes, sauna, salt room and now tanning. I feel that it is a great value for the money spent. Additionally, I take personal training sessions with Christine and also take her classes. I find her to be a genuine, caring, smart and well educated in her field. Over the past year she has pushed me to improve my health and fitness and supported me and celebrated all of my accomplishments with me. (sometimes more than me!) She encourages me to work hard and has helped me through injuries sustained in a car accident. I have also gotten to know some of the other trainers and taken other classes and I find everyone there to be kind, genuine and well educated in everything they do. I see the hard work they all put in to put together the individual training as well as the group classes. Much time and effort are put into each class design to ensure we all get a challenging workout. It is a time-consuming effort for them to put together a comprehensive program for us. It takes effort to set up so everything is ready when 30 to 40 people walk in ready to work out. On the downside, if I had to share what I have found frustrating is that there seems to be a sense of entitlement and lack of respect by some members of other members and staff. I see members leave weights, mats, benches and other equipment laying just where they worked out without putting anything away. I have seen such a lack of respect for others and equipment and it is unfortunate this happens. I have witnessed people actually moving the equipment set up for a group class and not return it to where they found it. I have gone around to put items that I have not used away so that I can have an uncluttered space. I have read some of the reviews here mentioning things are out of place and messy. Perhaps if people took the time to clean up after themselves it would be a more pleasant environment for everyone to enjoy. Afterall, your mom does not work here- clean up after yourself. As far as anyone saying ANYTHING negative about any trainer that works here, perhaps they should do some self-reflection. Nothing but props to everyone who works here. Keep doing what...

honestly, this place is really depending on what you make of it.

All the prior reviews are true but, you do have to realize that the cortlandt manor/Peekskill area is lacking gyms besides planet fitness. I’d rather drive here than to the mall.

Yes, it is busy but it depends on the time you come. Obviously from 6-9pm is going to be busy because that’s prime time, same goes from 8-10am. But, if you’re willing to get up a bit earlier or go to bed a bit later this can be avoidable.

As for the amount of people who come here, the facility is spotless. Unlike previous gyms I’ve been apart of, there is someone constantly cleaning, sweeping and wiping down the machines.

People complained about the locker rooms, but you have to realize this is a commercial gym for the most part... not club fit. I love that there is lockers that have locks built in, private showers and a SAUNA. The sauna is small but every time I’ve gone there’s been 2-3 people in it for 10-15 Max

My only real complaint is the layout. I absolutely hate where the dumbbells are located. It is like no matter what you are on top of someone because of the L shape that it is in. Towards the busier times it is almost impossible to get back there because of the shape and dynamic of that area.

So is level the best in the area? Up to you to decide but a lot of what this gym has to offer is what you make of it. Many of problems can be avoided by using common sense and maybe altering your gym...
