Best gym I've been to! Really clean. Not too busy in the mornings and just a cool place overall to workout.

Okay, there's been some time since I did this review so I'm updating it, but this is largely based on how it was when I left. This is a filming haven. When I dropped my membership, we were still under the mask requirement, but no one wore them here. That's an indicator of the community, I personally didn't want to wear them either, but I also don't take it on myself to decide public health issues. Second, you couldn't move without tripping over a filming set-up, it was kinda insane, everyone filming themselves for their followers I guess, seems kinda lame to me but I digress. The gym was beautiful and had a great layout. The equipment was perfect, and I liked the staff. However, it's the staff's responsibility to set the tone with the clientele. I think there was room for improvement.

Was a member of this gym - Left a previous yelp review which they had taken down. Maybe because I was letting every person that signs up know that there is no women's & mens locker room separation.The business claims there is and will give you a tour as there is one but that is misleading and false as anyone can walk into the women's restroom regardless of their anatomy. Major safety violation.They also do not provide a neutral restroom for those who do not align with a women's or mens changing room space but claim to be an inclusive business.

I came to try out the gym on a day pass. I asked if I could get a tour first before and the young lady who gave me the tour was Eva. Eva was an absolutely angel in the way she gave me her full attention and was very informant. She gave me a tour and after the tour I worked out. During my exercise I was surprised by the atmosphere and the people. I will be definitely signing up soon!!

Five-star based on my past 8-month experience at John Reed.The gym is very artistically designed, lighting, accessory, seating, wall art, and sound immediately distinguish this John Reed from other gyms.It is a diverse and inclusive environment. The staff are very friendly and welcoming.This gym offers fantastic classes, I've tried all classes and am happy to say they are all great, trainers are awesome.I'd like to highlight two of my favorites:Derick's 'Circuit Breaker' Wed & Sat, and Jacklin's 'Mobility' Mon & Thur.Derick's 'Circuit Breaker' you work out with teammates on eight movements/stations, it combines cross-fit and weight training, really fun and a must-try. Jacklin's 'Mobility' is more calm and more relaxing focusing on body movement stretching and health.Love Derick and Jacklin's class and highly recommend anyone who joined the gym to try it. And try other classes as well they are all great.Again great gym great classes, would definitely recommend this gym and classes.
