About Life Time

Life Time is an athletic country club that offers something for everyone. It features an expansive fitness floor, unlimited studio classes, basketball courts, eucalyptus steam rooms, and indoor and outdoor pools. Members can enjoy unlimited group training and individualized attention with a Signature Membership. While some may find the prices to be steep, many agree that the top-notch amenities and services make it a worthwhile investment. The staff is great, and the gym's atmosphere encourages members to work out and visit regularly. However, some members have expressed disappointment with recent changes to the gym's layout and policies, such as the reduced availability of basketball courts.

Members also appreciate the spa services, which include partial highlights, full-service haircuts, and blowouts. The spa is known for its cleanliness and sophisticated atmosphere, with staff like Jackie and Tatyana providing professional, kind, and attentive care. Many find the quality of service worth traveling over 40 minutes for, leaving members feeling refreshed and satisfied. Despite the positive experiences, some feel the equipment could be upgraded and maintained better, and overall cleanliness remains an ongoing concern.

Other than that great place to workout & unwind.

Recent changes, such as converting one of the large hot tubs into a cold plunge have caused overcrowding in the sauna and remaining hot tub areas, resulting in wait times and less sanitary conditions.

I have been using Life Time's Dynamic Personal Training service for almost 7 weeks now and it has been such a great experience! My trainer, Kevin Medrano, created a program tailored to my specific goals and limitations, and I have never felt more comfortable and confident at the gym. I started our program with a knee injury, but Kevin is great at finding creative ways to build up to bigger movements. With his help, I have been able to increase my endurance, mobility, and range of motion dramatically.

I am also really excited about the spin classes offered at Life Time. Now that my endurance is improving, I have been attending EDG classes and I always leave exhausted… read full review
