    Thank you, Ramie Reed (GM of the South Loop FFC location).

    Juneteenth is a very special day to me and millions of others. Walking into the club every morning and being greeted with a smile is already a great way to start my workout, but yesterday was different. Not only was I greeted with a smile, but I was also greeted with acknowledgment and recognition on a day that carries so much meaning.

    First time FFC member here. The staff are super kind and accommodating. My tour with Dominica was great as she was friendly, informative and happy to answer all of my questions. I also had a great training session with Fitness Director, Erik. He was very knowledgeable, kind and carefully guided me through each movement. I learned at lot during our session and felt great afterwards.
    Parking is free for 2 hours and I’ve visited during the early morning and evening hours with no problem having access to the equipment I prefer. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a new gym home.
