Three of us came in for the first time tonight and we were checked in by a super helpful member of the gym’s staff. We probably went a little too big, too fast, but had a great time. The gym is very clean and the atmosphere is very laid back with friendly regulars.

Excellent gym for the size and price. Yoga instructors are great. Serves some of the best coffee in Akron. Staff and members are super friendly and welcoming. If you want to train for climbing, their fitness room is perfect. It has everything you need and nothing you don't. Take advantage of this Akron gem!!
