Spectrum Club

07/10/2008 Posted by Hilario

I just moved to the area and I was looking for a club to workout. Someone gave me a flyer for an open house and came by. Little did I know this awesome club exists so close to my work. They have great classes, awesome parking, new equipment and friendly staff. I can workout during my lunch break, take a quick shower and head back to work in no time. Love it....

Pros: Clean, great atmosphere, friendly staff

Cons: can't think of one

This is a GREAT Health Club! When I enter, I get a warm welcome friendly feeling/atmosphere throughout the whole time! The entire gym is clean, but not only that, the Kid's Club is fantastic and clean! There are SO many toys, I know a lot of children that go there, and they become friends. They even have events too, like Parent's Night Outs, and even DATE NIGHTS! Really marvelous! The gym has a lot of things to do, spinning class, aerobics room, private trainings. The locker rooms are neat and clean and safe. On the whole, it's a great PLACE to be and if YOUR not there, your missing out! I give it a 10/10, TWO Thumbs UP! Thank you.

Pros: Kid's Club!

Cons: None!

I'm new to the area as my new job is at the Water Garden. First off what a great location!! The club is small and when I am there it's not crowded. I come at lunch time and sometimes in the evening after work. I take classes, work with a trainer, I checked out the pilates studio( what a retreat!!!). Sometimes I come in and do some cardio and weights. On the whole I like the club. I feel safe there. The classes that I took were quite good. I saw on the schedule there is a belly dancing class, wish I didn't work so I could take that one. I have tried the Zumba on Monday nights that was awesome, the instructor is stellar!!! The trainer I worked out with was great, does he know his stuff. He has a keen eye and does not let me get away with anything. The Pilates studio is small but lovely. I took some privates and loved it!! The staff is friendly and upbeat! all in all a great place to work out. I checked out the competition before I joined but the value was there, the convienence was there, so I'm there.

Pros: parking, location, cleanliness

Cons: steam room is being refurbished

This gym has great parking,customer service and staff. They have great classes and equipment. I would recommend this gym to anyone. When I went in the first time they game me a free pass to try out the gym before I signed up. This way you know what you are getting before you pay.

This club is clean, well kept and quiet. It is a great place to workout with out all the noise and crazyness that usally accoures in the clubs in this area. The service is great and the staff is helpfull. It's a nice place to hide out. They even give you 3 free months when you join.

Best gym on the westside. Pleasant atomosphere. Staff extremely helpful. free personal training session. Most update equipment. Great locker rooms. free towels. Looks hard to get into the building but to the contrary easier than most gyms. elevator takes you right up. My kids have a great time at the kids club. So happy I found this jewel. They give you 3 months free upon joining. Been a member of many of the other gyms but this is by far the best. I'm a lifer!!!

Over the last year they've enrolled way too many people to the point that you are forced to come at off peak hours if you want your favorite machine. It's also FREEZING in there!! I come to sweat, not catch pneumonia. The hours could be expanded too..especially on the weekend! Closing before 10 pm on any day is just bad and I think they close at 8pm on Sat/Sun.

Pros: Proximity if you work in the WaterGarden or live nearby.

Cons: Hours of operaton, crowded, too cold inside and the locker room could not be more cramped.

Was a member for over two years and it was a pretty anonymous place. The cycling classes were good but those also went downhill when key instructors left. Two months notice required to cancel and even then had to call numerous times to make sure they got the form that I had to fill out. No one ever followed up with a phone call as to why I might be leaving. Too bad. It's close to where I work.

Pros: Easy parking and location

Cons: Inpersonal

I couldn't even see the gym from the outside! It is samll but the classes are great and they have everything you need. My office is in the water garden office complex, so I wanted a gym that was close. There was no excuse when it is in my building! The instructors are great and the schedule offers several different kinds of classes like toning, kickboxing, spinning and yoga. I feel no where near my office when I enter--it's my little get away!

Pros: location, classes, free pedometer, nice locker room

Cons: could have softer towels, but at least they offer towels!

I have been a member of the Santa Monica Spectrum Club for 2 years now. When I first joined I had a hard time staying motivated and always finding excuses not to come. The I joined this challenge they have going on. Through this program I am now able to get 3 Private training sessions for FREE! I love my trainer who is amazing and really helping me to reach my goals. This is the best program and has helped me out so much.

Pros: Parking,Service
