Carle Health & Fitness Center

Amazing fitness and health center. Only in the area once in a while and I Will make sure I pay this place a visit whenever I visit. Love the manual treadmills!

Dr Brissey is amazing as well as the staff. Always get greeted with a smile on the way in and out! Dr. Brissey actually listens to my concerns and is great about getting the resources you need to get back on your feet again! Thank you Carle for all that you do! Restrooms were spotless.

The worst fitness center I have ever seen. Please don't go for memberships, it's a big scam.Why? You need to cancel by the 20th of the month to avoid being charged for the next month.You have to go in person to cancel. You can't cancel over the phone, via email. I guess you'd be paying forever if you moved halfway across the country and hadn't canceled your membership.

UPDATED REVIEWI've knocked the review down from 5 stars to 1 star due to their membership cancellation policy. Why? It's extremely arbitrary. First of all, you need to cancel by the 20th of the month to avoid being charged for the next month. Why? Who knows. I can't think of any reason why they would need to do this. Second, you have to show up in person to cancel. You can't cancel over the phone, via email, on their website, or by carrier pigeon if you happen to have one. I guess you'd be paying forever if you moved halfway across the country and hadn't canceled your membership. Seriously what is this - the stone age?Also, good luck with the TPC area if you visit around 5 or 6PM. They have classes with kids going on there that are basically let loose. They usually have some structured class and then are set free to do whatever they want. You'll see kids messing around with free weights, hex bars, and running around causing a dangerous environment. Up in the track area, they will be sprinting around and darting between the different lanes, and I almost witnessed people being knocked over several times by this.Lastly, the fitness coaching idea, while in principle sounds nice, is executed poorly. The coaches clearly have many more responsibilities on their plate than they can handle on top of the fitness coaching. It's impossible to reach them through the app leading you to have to email them, and you'll be lucky if you get a response. After switching coaches, the original coach still thought they were my coach - clearly there is zero communication at all within the team at this gym.Yes the gym is clean, yes the gym has good equipment and isn't too crowded, yes the clientele in general are very friendly, but that's about where it stops. There are clearly some management problems here.ORIGINAL REVIEWExtremely nice fitness center. Clientele are respectful, staff is beyond friendly, the gym is VERY clean, and there is more than enough equipment here whether you're doing rehab exercises, machines, powerlifting, or other S&C work. The elevated track is nice and so is the pool.Honestly, if you're considering a gym membership and can afford it (Carle is one of the priciest in the area), then choose Carle.

Great fitness center. I wish it was closer to my home. Loved the atmosphere, people, equipment, yoga, and water classes. Just couldn't afford it and the gas to get there. Great place if you live in Bloomington Normal.

I really love this facility! I was not a big fitness person before but this place makes me so comfortable that I don’t mind going! It’s clean and the staff is so helpful and friendly, right down to the executive director who is not too busy and stopped and helped me with one of the exercise machines!

I love the fitness center because of the great trainers and employees. They are friendly, welcoming and encouraging. The facility is always clean and well maintained. I feel safe when working out and feel that the team truly cares about my health and fitness needs.

Fantastic facility with a great selection of equipment. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Everything is very clean and tidy. It's a wonderful place. The only thing that could be improved is having more options for families. I have children who would greatly benefit from use of the pool, but the opportunities for kids to access the pool are extremely limited.

I recently became a member after they allowed me a free week to enjoy the facilities, including the exercise classes, both in the water and exercise rooms. Everything has been great, including the yoga class I took. The women's locker room area includes individual shower areas that each has its own changing area with privacy curtains. Since I am a senior on a limited income, the monthly cost of $53 is something I can manage. Lots more wonderful details make this place an ideal one to get healthy!

Clean and easy to use. Friendly staff are happy to help.
