About New York Sports Club
New York Sports Club is a well-equipped gym chain with convenient locations and member-friendly month-to-month memberships. The gyms offer a wide range of fitness facilities, including functional fields, personal training, group fitness classes, heavy lifting equipment, and a variety of cardio and strength machines. Additionally, they have recently added new recovery lounges. Since 1973, the company has been on a mission to improve lives through fitness, serving members under its Sports Club, Around The Clock Fitness, and Lucille Roberts brands. While the gym has all the standard equipment, the weight lifting area can be small, and equipment may be limited, leading to wait times, especially during peak hours. The showers in the men's locker area also have some issues with water pressure and missing handles. However, the gym is generally well-maintained, with continuous improvements in cleaning, equipment, and air conditioning observed by members. The staff at the Boylston Street venue, led by Paul, are described as professional, friendly, and helpful in assisting members with understanding the gym's policies and contracts. The gym's clientele is also noted for being attractive and motivating. Overall, New York Sports Club offers a solid fitness experience, despite some minor inconveniences.
I've been taking classes with Sharon, and she's wonderful. I started with Pilates and have now started her yoga classes. I have a slight disability, and Sharon has been super-helpful in guiding me through my return to fitness.
I am going to give a 4.5 stars since there is always room to improve, e.g. improving the cleanliness of the gym especially the locker room and bathroom area, checking closely on things, such as hanging hooks in the pool areas, to be replaced or fixed in a timely manner.
The club has a lot of good group teachers. I am disappointed that some of my favorite classes were cut due to low attendance rate, including one of the yoga classes taught by Sharon. I have been going the class taught by Sharon, who is a seasoned Ashtanga yoga teacher. She gives clear instructions and offers modifications according to students needs. I always feel good after the class.
