This is the best gym in the world! The saltwater pool and yoga classes are my favorites. The hot tub and sauna are wonderful as well.

POOL RESERVATIONSPLEASE do not stop Pool Reservations at Heritage Plaza. We have only 3 lanes and for a first com first served basis one could wait quite awhile for a swim lane. Swimmers have a hard enough time trying to get a spot. I and others swim a mile, more or less, each session. Without lanes and times for swimmers our workouts are in jeopardy. Swimmers cannot share a lane. Please consider the swimmers before you make a decision about the pool. It is not just for aerobics. Swimmers are members too.Sincerely,Maureen O’Dwyer

OFC’s Heritage Plaza location is convenient, clean, and has everything you need from 24 hour access to a variety of classes. It also offers personal training sessions, which I can not speak highly enough of. I’ve been training with Jason for over two years and I couldn’t be more pleased with his calculated workouts, flexibility in schedule, and plans he gives to be implemented on days where I am not training with him. Thankful I found Heritage Plaza and Jason!

I have been training with Jason for approximately a year and a half. He set up a regimen for me that we follow 3x per week as per my specific needs. It has been very effective in getting my definition back, endurance and strength . I would recommend it to anyone. I look forward getting up in the morning and spending time with him on zoom, during these difficult times during the pandemic.

Jason Seifried is an amazing personal trainer. I have been training with him for over a year, and train with him twice a week. I introduced myself to him because I was impressed with his approach and demeanor as he was training another client at the gym. Before we started, he asked about my goals and objectives. He created diverse, challenging workouts for me. I felt like I was never repeating the same exercise twice. I was so impressed to hear himdescribe his process for developing custom training sessions to meet my goals. It’s a partnership. I see accomplishment, and I feel supported. Ochsner provides a welcoming andsafe atmosphere. I highly recommend Jason Seifried.

I have been working out with OFC trainer, Jason Seifried for 3 years. (1 year during pregnancy) I have been able to achieve results that I have not seen before when working with trainers at other gyms. Workouts are just challenging enough and never boring. If you are looking for results, I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with Jason at the Heritage Plaza location. You will not be disappointed!

The best fitness center for my needs. 24 hour access and an excellent assortment of treadmills, free weights and exercise equipment. Not overly crowded, so I rarely wait for any usage of equipment.

I’ve been a member at OCHSNER FITNESS CENTER for over ten years. I especially like the convenience of it because if I’m in a different part of the city working I have access to three different locations. Over the years I have taken several of their various different classes, spinning and body pump are my faves. But I recently, over the past couple of years, have had a wonderful trainer. Jason’s workouts always keep you guessing. No two sessions are ever alike and he’s completely unpredictable. This has been the key to my body finally changing. Jason is super sweet but he pushes you at the same time. It’s important to me to feel comfortable with my trainer and relaxed or else I would not continue. Overall I find OCHSNER FITNESS a well rounders club and they offer it all.

Metairie location is small but nice and clean. There's lots of equipment, a spin class room, yoga room, aerobics room, sauna, hot tub, and a pool. The staff is friendly and helpful. There is cable TV with bluetooth connectivity on equipment.
