I have been doing sports for 8 years, to say that I am shocked by this fitness club is to say nothing! I definitely do not recommend it! It's not a comfortable locker room, we change clothes on top of each other. The equipment creaks in the hall, it seems that preventive maintenance is not being carried out. It is very inconvenient that in one small hall where the girls train, group trainings are held at the same time. During a group training session, the coach interrupted work to ask the girl not to practice on a certain simulator because it squeaked disgustingly, even her teeth were cramping. Even worse simulators are installed in the passage to the terrace, especially the Smith traction simulator, it turns out to lift it evenly every other time, because it constantly jams and turns out to be lifted alternately!
The mats in the hall are of disgusting quality, scuffed with a smell, they slip very much on the linoleum, if you are not constantly vigilant, you can fall unsuccessfully!
A month ago, we started visiting this institution. When buying a subscription, my mother clarified all the nuances, since I only know Armenian at an elementary level. The administrator told us that an action is currently taking place, when buying a subscription for 5 months - 7 months as a gift, the cost is 22 thousand drams. I didn't want to take a subscription for the whole year, so I asked my mother to clarify if there were monthly subscriptions, to which we were told that there were no monthly subscriptions, only promotional and daytime subscriptions valid until 4 pm. Before buying a subscription, we had a short tour of the gym, at first glance everything was quite decent: good simulators, there are all the necessary equipment.
Before purchasing a subscription, my mother clarified several times whether she understood the employee correctly, that now we are buying season tickets for 5 months for 22 thousand drams, and we get 7 months as a gift, to which the employee assured us that everything is so that we understood correctly. We bought two season tickets.
On the first day of training, I realized what a mistake I had made.
Firstly, according to the established rules of this fitness center, you cannot visit the gym and group programs at once on the same day. Okay, it's not that critical.
Secondly, the coaches are absolutely incompetent, unqualified, stretching was absolutely not like stretching, as if they hired a girl who had previously been engaged in dancing with good flexibility, but at the same time did not have special knowledge of teaching and stretching. Throughout the lesson, the music was lost, which caused the coach to constantly be distracted to fix problems. As a person who does not know the language and does not understand what movement the coach calls for further execution, I looked directly at the coach to repeat after her, but it did not help me, since the coach showed the exercise for a second (and during this second, with a full hall, it is impossible to immediately see what the coach shows), after which She stood up abruptly and admired her reflection. The only qualified coach is Anastasia. Her training sessions were always interesting, with an explanation of the technique and without problems with the music, for which I thank her very much. That's where all the advantages ended.
Thirdly, there is a huge disadvantage that there is no separate room for group programs, there is only a small empty area in the gym, which is absolutely inconvenient, since with so many people and the size of the room, the air was absolutely not circulating, the air conditioners could not cope, it was very stuffy.
Fourth, terrible exercise equipment and equipment. All dumbbells and pancakes were scattered all over the hall, it was almost impossible to find a pair for dumbbells, no one followed the order of the inverter. It was impossible to practice on the simulators, since some were old, and others required lubrication, which is why almost no simulator was suitable for use. Also, the mats were in absolutely terrible condition - old, worn and scuffed, the mat material was so low-quality that it constantly slipped on the linoleum. The only thing I've been doing all this month is Anastasia's group programs and my own dumbbell workouts.
A few days ago, when she came to the gym, the same employee who sold us the season tickets said that the deadline had expired and they needed to be extended. My mother and I were at a misunderstanding, we asked questions about the subscription, because when we bought it, they told us absolutely different things. We repeated the words of the employee about the action, to which she replied that this could not be, she could not say so. I started explaining something and trying to get out that 22 thousand is a month. To which my mother said that initially she asked several times if she understood the employee correctly, when translating to me, my mother clarified once again whether she translated it correctly (since before that the administrator said she knew a little Russian), to which she nodded affirmatively, saying yes. The employee replied that we misunderstood her, after which we put the cards on the counter and said that we were canceling the season tickets. The girl immediately started trying to smooth out the corners, saying something about the installment plan, but we said goodbye and left. We did not listen to her suggestions, as we had never seen an even greater deception in our lives. I do not know the motivation of this girl's actions, whether it was necessary to raise sales by any means, or what, but it was just outrageous. I regret that I did not record our first dialogue on a dictaphone so that she could turn it on later.
As a result, I absolutely do not recommend visiting this fitness center, because it does not cost anything: neither your money, nor the time spent, a terrible institution.
The attitude of the coaches leaves much to be desired, initially I took a subscription with the coach, she said to run for 20 minutes, then another 20 minutes on an exercise bike, to my indignation that she did not even ask me about any injuries and what result I want to achieve, coach Nare told me that if I want to practice individually with her I will have to to pay some huge amount. It was on the eve of March 8th and the coaches stood and discussed that they had taken a season ticket and did it with such contempt as if you were not welcome there at all
