Love to use the weight/cardio room at this facility; excellent weights class. Wish the gym was available more, though. Nearly always rented out & closed on Saturdays; why cant the renters setup after they close at 2pm? Also, they close it too early before a class needs it & then leave it closed for the evening.

I love I the Kung Fu and Kickboxing classes. The teachers are very nice and interested in growth of the students. I have seen the teachers at different classes at other rec center and thwy just teach without passion. These teachers have passion ro teach.
