Best Gym near Crown-point, Indiana

I like how huge and modern the facility is. I also like that they have a variety of classes. However it's never really clean especially in the gymnastics room and dance room they use for the toddlers. My toddlers feet and socks are always filthy after her classes. The bathrooms are never really clean & fresh either. I definitely feel it's room for a lot of improvement when it comes to the cleanliness. Most of the employees are friendly but there are some who don't want African Americans there. They give fake smiles and are very passive aggressive. Give off the vibes that you're not wanted there. Months ago I was trying to enroll my toddler in preschool. Marissa told me not to feel bad about all of the spots being filled at this location. She stated they didn't have license teachers and they children don't learn anything. She suggested my child would be better off at the Griffith location and they have licensed teachers. I kinda felt something wasn't right but tried to give her the benefit of the doubt. Another young lady helped me enroll my daughter in the preschool in Griffith but didn't give me any of the information I needed. It was about a week or two later I stopped by the front desk and I was talking to one of the ladies at the front desk. I informed her of everything Marissa said and how I wasn't given the information I needed for my daughter to start preschool. The woman looked so confused and informed me that Marissa had lied to me about the preschool and she didn't understand why. She told me to reach out to the director over the children's preschool. I emailed Christina Davidson-Kurec over a month ago about what had happened and she never responded to my email. It gave me confirmation on everything I had felt in my spirit.

We signed up our 9 month old son for the November 0-2yo Saturday 9:45-10:15 swim lessons. This was his first time doing swim lessons. The first class (Nov 2nd) my husband takes our son into the pool. The swim instructor, Cassie, tells my husband that our son can not come into the class because he has on a swim diaper. Mind out he has on a disposable swim diaper underneath. It was not a cloth diaper. I asked to speak to someone. She tells me to speak to the aquatics director who is in the middle of a swim lesson but I had no choice I didn’t know who else speak to (it wasn’t his fault was not able to deal with the situation right then) He gets another lifeguards attention who tells me that our son is allowed to wear his swim diaper and this shouldn’t happen again. Half way into the class she tells my husband we are in the wrong class. We had to check in with a guy at the entrance to the pool to make sure we were in-fact in the correct class BEFORE the class even started. So when I showed her on my phone that we were in the correct class she just giggled and said “my bad”. So she has tried to kick us out of our sons first swim lesson 2x. She wasted half of the class trying to kick us out. Not only did she waste our sons lesson time but also the other children’s time. Then come today (Nov 9th) his second swim lesson. Before I even got all the way into the pool she said again that our son was not allowed to wear his swim diaper. I told her that they said it was okay last week. She started to argue with me, then tells “I’ll let it slide this week but next week he needs swim trunks” there is no difference between my son wearing a reusable swim diaper over a disposable one vs a little girl wearing bikini bottoms. While I’m still half way out of the water she tells me that we are in the wrong class AGAIN! I told her that we were not in the wrong class and we went over this last week. She tried to argue with me about that’s not what’s on her schedule. There was literally another baby in the class who she didn’t say anything to! When I asked to speak to someone again she pointed us into the direction of the aquatics director, Jeremy. When I told him what was going on he said that our sons swim diaper was allowed! And that we are in the correct class! He offered for us to just continue with the class and be refunded for the classes or choose a different time. We choose to just leave and we will be doing a different time. We appreciate Jeremy resolving the situation. I don’t appreciate Cassie trying to kick us out of 2 classes 4x! I don’t understand why choose to pick on us but I definitely feel like her behavior was unacceptable.

Wow! Very nice YMCA with upwards of a hundred cardiovascular machines and vast amount of fitness equipment from a couple different manufacturers. Large free weight area with a couple platforms surrounded by a lengthy indoor track. Huge aquatic center with both indoor and outdoor opportunities including indoor kids park. Two large gymnasiums with various activities. Gymnastics center under renovation, but looks to be a great one. A couple different studios along with a shake bar. Steam room, sauna and wonderful locker rooms. Endless opportunities at the impressive YMCA.

Great facility lots to do! Very friendly especially Ann at the front desk! She is So Welcoming every morning and deserves a raise. A friendly person like her is hard to come by. Clean facility with great amenities for the family. Love to get a good workout in and enjoy the sauna. Our children have enjoyed trying many programs such as swim classes, soccer dance and ninja classes, and both of our kids have used the preschool programs. Mrs Sarah was the best teacher both our children had! Mary is awesome at the yoga classes and is super friendly and welcoming ! Ray is an awesome instructor during cycling classes he makes it challenging but fun definitely recommend his classes for beginners and those who like a mixup my favorite cycle instructor thus far . We have enjoyed using the facility for birthday parties as well which have been nice. There have been a few issues with the parties on communication and not enough food being ordered to one of our outside pool part area not being cleaned before one of the parties before we have had multiple issues I feel because possibly that staff is always rotating with young workers so that department could use better oversite but other than that we love going there and using the amenities to the fullest!

I have been up tossing and turning all night due to having one of the most embarrassing moments of my life. As a resident of Winfield, this is the only YMCA within close range to me, so this is the facility I choose to frequent. However, after being a member for nearly three months I always felt it would be just a matter of time before I experienced my “Karen” moment. Therefore, to avoid having such a moment, I tried to follow the rules, focus on my purpose for being there while being respectful and kind to everyone. I guess no matter how hard you try individuals who don’t want you in their space or don’t feel you are worthy to be in their space will always find a way to wreak havoc on your life. If enjoy working out, and try to visit this Y at least three times a week. I especially love the “E gym” as I have found this to be the only program to keep me motivated to exercise. I love being able to stay within the lines and see the orange dots disappear within a minutes time. I feel I accomplished my goal after completing my ONE minute, which is why I am a huge fan of this program. It’s a quick fix and I’m done! However, I am not a routine person. Some days i don’t want to start my workout with my arms. If there is an open machine, I may choose to use that machine to complete that ONE minute exercise, as I attempted to do yesterday. I saw a leg machine available for use, so I went to the machine to use it. The lady on the machine in front of me was in the middle of her workout on her machine. When her program ended she noticed that I was using the machine that she wanted to use next. She then tells a man, who I assume to be her husband, that I “cut” in front her. The man confronts me and stated “I can’t cut. I have to start at the beginning.” I tried to explain that I did not want to start at the beginning and that the machine was open for use. The woman and the man became irate at my response and angrily questioned my training on the program. I informed them that I was trained on the equipment but nothing was set in stone as to the order In which I was to do the program. The man insisted on dragging the conversation out, as he stated several times “unbelievable.” It amazes me how they turned, what i thought was a conversation, into an argument. They both kept loudly saying “I’m not going to argue” so other members and staff members could hear the conversation. I attempted several times to try to get my ONE minute workout in, but I was so distracted that I couldn’t complete it. The distraction and going back and forth with this couple only prolonged my minute I intended to use. The couple then have their “Karen” moment. They tell a staff member to explain to me the flow of the rotation. The staff member yells out that I am supposed to rotate. I questioned the staff member by asking where I could find the information regarding which machine I had to use first. During this entire time, everyone was looking at me as if I had the plague. I heard other members approach the couple and ask “did she cut in front of you?” I heard the couple angrily explaining to them that I “cut” the line. I ended up getting off of the machine because I didn’t want to stop the other members from using the equipment due to me having already wasted three minutes. I attempted to go to another open machine and noticed a group of people looking at me. The lady of the group (Karen, real name) approached me, introduced herself as the manager and asked if I wanted to talk to management about something. I replied “no, I didn’t ask to speak with anyone: I stated that maybe the couple wanted to talk to her, but I did not request to see anyone. As I am talking to Karen I see the couple, along with everyone else in the area looking on. I felt that I was being chastised by Karen and made to be seen as troublesome due to her approach. After my conversation with Karen I had the most eerie feeling. A feeling of tension and uncomfortableness. I saw the whispers and the stares. At that point I decided to leave the facility.

Revolt has been my second home for 4 years. I can’t say enough good things about this gym. When I first came to revolt I had mostly no skills and now I am working on my layout. I will continue and forever love this gym with all my heart. ❤️

Revolt has been my oldest daughters home for almost 5 years now. The coaching is incredible. They coach with pride, passion, and safety for all athletes. The coaches know all their athletes by name, check in on them at their best and support them on the hard days. My youngest child now takes a tumbling class there, and cant wait to cheer! I would recommend ReVolt to anyone looking for a top notch training facility, and have! We love everyone from the owners, coaches, and our favorite receptionist!

Our family has been a Revolt family from the beginning and we can honestly say it is a home away from home for our daughter who has cheered every season since season 1. Her skills have evolved and are constantly improving. My daughter walked in with solid level 2 tumbling skills that went up to level 3 almost instantly. Through the last 4 1/2 years she hasn’t had a season where she hasn’t improved her skills and now has solid level 5 tumbling along with several other athletes. Their front desk staff has always been welcoming and well informed. But on the rare occasions where they haven’t had an answer immediately they will get back to you as soon as they can to help you out. I love that at the parent meetings at the beginning of the season that they are up front on 100% of the yearly costs. They don’t have separate hidden booster fees or competition fees and on the occasions that they change competitions (usually just to insure we have actual competitors and aren’t the only team in our divisions) the gym eats the costs and parents don’t get charged for it. These are only a few reasons why we love this gym. But the most important reason is it feels like a family. So much so that my older Son who used to tumble and cheer for them still attends open gym with his little sister because he still feels welcome even though he himself no longer takes classes any longer.

We have been a part of the Revolt family for three years now. We love everything about it. My daughter’s progression has been amazing to watch and the owners are the upmost professionals. They go out of their way to get to know every athlete, regardless of age or team, and support and coach them to the fullest.

This is my daughter’s first season with Revolt and she has had nothing but positive experiences since day one. From the owners (whom also coach), Melissa and Jamie, to her team coaches. My daughter left Revolt’s tumbling class, being there only a month, with skills ignored by her previous gym. Revolt focuses on building confidence and integrity, not tearing their ladies and gentlemen down. They are great with constructive criticism and building for a better tomorrow. I appreciate all you have done and look forward to a GREAT rest of our competition season! Thank you ALL! Mrs. Cardinal

Hosted a birthday party this summer and can’t say enough great things about the venue, owners, and staff! Highly recommend booking your next event here - the kids had an absolute blast! The owners were great to work with and answer questions as we were planning, and the staff there on the day of the party were timely, professional, friendly, and helpful!

Cannot say enough about how great our experience was. We threw a bday party here yesterday. The owner isn't just a business owner, she is a coordination genius. She helped with setup, cleanup, maintenance, and everything in between. Our party was PERFECT and I cannot wait to have another one

We had my sons birthday party there any everything was great. They were helpful in booking and on the party day.

Had a party for my sixteen year old. Activities, he and his friends had a ball. LOL. You do have to supply your own food and they supply tables and the games and entertainment.

Seriously the best! Today we had Luke run our party! WOWZERS!!! Outstanding young man! Kids love this place from the bounce house, to black lights, to basketball! Very accommodating for all ages and all parties! Thank you!

This place is a joke! All we paid for was overpriced babysitting. No structure to the classes, always being shuffled between one teenager to the next and their recitals are a joke! My child was very excited and got no individual attention and learned nothing!

My daughter started gymnastics here a month ago and has already learned so much more than the previous place she attended the whole summer. Jennifer is so kind and encouraging and takes the time to teach everything correctly. The last place my daughter was had 30 kids with 2 coaches. Midwest offers my daughter a class with a max of 6 kids per coach so she gets more one on one training. Overall, I'm very impressed with Midwest.

My boys have taken Parkour classes with Coach Shaun off and on over the last few years. They really enjoy it and coach has really been progressing the program with the addition of conditioning weeks. He's great with updates on progress and suggestions as needed.

Our kids have been attending parkour classes for some time now and really enjoy the direction and motivation that Coach Sean and John give the class. The kids are getting stronger and more confident each week. I recommend this gym over others in the area.

My son takes parkour classes at Midwest and he loves it! Coach Sean and Coach Jason are great and always give good feedback on how he’s progressing. I also love that they’re flexible when I had to switch to a different day to accommodate a school club. Great place!

I joined this gym a couple of weeks ago, and I absolutely love it! I've recently begun my weight loss journey, & I wanted a personal trainer, yet I didn't want the one-on-one pressure that comes with that. Instead, I looked up "gyms with group classes", & Orangetheory came up. I had never heard of this gym, but boy, am I glad to have found it! It consists of a combination of rowing, cardio machines, & strength training. I'm on week 3 now, and I can tell a difference in my body already! It's a little pricey, but honestly it's worth it to me. I'm doing workouts I never would have done on my own, & I love that the group encourages each other to keep going. I genuinely look forward to each class I take!💪🏾🏋🏾‍♀️

3 1/2 Years in, going between 3-6 days a week. Coaches are amazing, atmosphere is amazing, front desk is amazing. 5 out of 5 for me

If you're looking for a true fitness community - filled with people you love, coaches you trust, fun workouts, encouragement, challenges, and ultimate self-confidence - then OTF crown point is your place. All you have to do is walk through the door, and the rest is history!

I have been a member of OTF since 2021 and would recommend anyone and everyone join!! I have never been an in studio type of workout person, but OTF has changed my life in so many ways. From the inviting and friendly staff at the front desk, encouraging and energetic coaches and the friendships you gain, all while getting in the best shape of your life. OTF is one of the best workout studios around!

I recently tried Orangetheory Fitness in Crown Point, and it was amazing! Coaches Adrian, Maggie, and Megan are great motivators, each with their own style. I’m sure the other coaches are great too, I just haven’t tried their classes yet! The music pumps you up, and the hour-long workout flies by. It's challenging but doable for all fitness levels because you can go at your own pace. As a physical therapist, I can say it's a solid workout that's fun for everyone. Coaches, staff, and other members are extremely friendly and helpful. Overall, it's a top-notch place for fitness, and I signed up the day after I tried my first class!

Crown Point, Indiana is exploding in terms of families moving here! So although there are a lot of after-school activities for your children, they are often full or really expensive. We came to the Industrial Dance Project after not being able to get into classes at the Y. IDC is a family-run business and you can see the incredible effort they have put into this place. The building was a warehouse that they just kept expanding into. Now, the place has 3 dance studios, one tumble/ninja/parkour room and another parkour area soon-to-be completed. My son loves the Ninja classes, which are co-ed (and the girls in them are some of the better Ninjas!). "Coach Chili" knows his stuff about Ninja and Parkour, which I had never heard of until we watched some of it on YouTube. My son is happy and exhausted when he comes home after his Ninja class (hurrah)! As you can see by the photos I took, Coach Chili built a lot of custom equipment for his classes, and you don't find this as much at places that simply use tumble mats. This place will only become more popular because of the dedication of the staff and owners.

This is an amazing place! They have great instructors and so many options! We have not participated in the dance lessons (my boys are into parkour and ninja) but I have seen that they have done well. My sons love the parkour classes! Coach Chili is SO patient with the kids and really helps them excel! Additionally, the owners really love their community! They give back and support so much! There are so many chain places out there. I encourage everyone with kids to try them out! You will not regret it!

This is a really great place. My kids love it and the owners and staff are incredible. Industrial Dance Project is a must if your child is interested in learning Dance or Gymnastics. My son also does the ninja program and has taken well to Coach Chilli. We have been to several gyms in the area and this one outshines them all! Just feels like hone.

Our 3 kids love IDP... no drama dance studio and parkour. Tons of classes, great instructors. Great family atmosphere. Owners and their adult children are fabulous, kind, and caring. They go above and beyond for all of their dancers/ninjas. You can also rent a room to have a birthday party or event.

My daughter and I love this dance studio. They truly love what they do and treat everyone like family! The classes are really good and reasonably priced too!!!

The community here is the warmest, most encouraging group of people I've come across. Everyone from staff to the members wants the best for you! STRIDE is the place to be :)

STRIDE is an amazing place! Every coach motivates you! Treadmills are great to run on and it's just a great place to be a part of!

The classes are 🔥 The staff & instructors are absolutely amazing! They are super motivating, inside & outside the studio. Probably the BEST gym I’ve ever joined, hands down! You will get a great workout and meet some great people as well. The STRIDE Classes are my favorite! I also love to switch up my routine with a good Combo class 💪🏽 The facility is very clean. They also have cubbies or lockers for your personal belongings. Looking to get a motivational discipline workout? Check out STRIDE! 😉

I can’t say enough about STRIDE! From the first day I tried a class, I knew there was something special here. The coaches and community here are so welcoming.

You can’t find that at a regular gym, and that’s why I keep coming back. I’m absolutely hooked, and I’m so grateful that I found STRIDE 💜💗🧡

If you’re already a fitness enthusiast or new to working out, check out F45 in Crown Point! There’s a place for everyone & the coaches will make you feel comfortable & welcome. I appreciate the variety of workouts at F45 which target your whole body. Even better, they are planned for me so I only need to show up! I like the energy & camaraderie of a group class along with the expertise, encouragement and feedback from a coach. The strength training aspect is a nice compliment to cardio activities such as running. I’m thankful that a friend invited me to check out F45!

Great experience!! I love that they have strength building classes and cardio classes!! It makes it easy to have a great workout that can be accommodated for my personal needs! The trainers are great to work with and very knowledgeable! Highly recommend to beginners and seasoned athletes!

I have never stuck with a work out routine or with a gym because it became boring or I easily lost motivation. Proud to say I’ve been with F45 for almost a year now and I look forward to going! The work outs are great and I truly love all the people there

Great coaches, love the variety of workouts specifically the strength days. Another huge bonus is the home workouts that are accessible via the app for the days that getting there in person isn't possible. Additionally, having the "passport passes" to any F45 each month is a huge additionally bonus.

The workouts are no joke. They are tough but worth it. Coaches are knowledgeable and always help out. The only downside is the limited amount of classes available a day. If you work a 9-5 job or 8-5 job it will be tough to make it to a class after work.

Not your typical gym. At Strength For Today you get individual attention from a professional trainer. The facility is spacious for the number of people there and has great equipment. Just a great atmosphere for training.

This is truly one of the best workout facilities I have ever been in. The guy that runs it is dope too.

Awesome facility and owner!

Started taking strength training more seriously, and signed up with Troy for three days a week. I can definitely say his workouts are killer! Very happy and can’t wait to see my progress in the next year.

Troy is easily the best trainer I’ve ever had! Been working out with Troy for 2 years now and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my health and fitness! Passionate and full of positivity! Go see TRAINER TROY

Great place to get a great workout! Troy is a super awesome guy, 100% best place in the region for training!

If you’re looking for a change! Troy is the guy! Great facility and even better trainer of all levels! Make the call!

Troy is the man! Great workouts, great motivator!
