These guys really know what they're doing here. A focused environment but not too crazy at the same time. The owner seems to do a good job in balancing the place out. There are a couple of negative reviews written down below. One thing I can say is, fully comprehend the gym policy before committing to a membership. Don't try to 'cancel' a good business by recruiting your friends to write reviews and to press the thumbs up button just because of your carelessness.
