Best Gym near Media, Pennsylvania

Wonderful experience! I walked in unsure if I was going to sign up for a membership so I just asked for a tour first. Greg was my tour guide, he was very informative and helpful. I was sold once I saw they have a women’s only section! They offer a plethora of classes I will most likely be attending, they also have a sauna and the locker room is super clean. If you’re thinking about joining, do it! Get the membership, it’s worth it!

I have been a member here for 3 years and I just cancelled. There are some pros and cons joining this gym. Beware signing a contract here because they frequently change the hours for Edge Kids, without any notice. I’ve been turned away after drinking preworkout, effectively disrupting my workout schedule for the week. They unjustifiably charged me a late fee. Customer service said it could not be corrected. Conveniently, they will able to correct it after filing a BBB complaint with all documentation detailing the unjustified fee. There is one employee at the front desk that greets me by name, which is a pleasant experience and kept me coming back. I hope the rest of the staff learns how important a smile and that courtesy means. I’ve been to this gym 4-5 times a week for 3 years and the general manager sticks to a certain click, having never said hello to me by name. The gym has high ceilings and large fans, and the cleaning staff does a great job. More than half of the members pick up after themselves. They are generally friendly and won’t bother you too much. There is a nearby high school, it’s sometimes entertaining to overhear the gossip, but also gets pretty annoying, so bring headphones to tune out the nonsense. If you go during peak hours be prepared with a flexible workout routine or you’ll be waiting for 5-10 minutes for equipment. Overall this gym has been a solid experience, but I cannot trust corporate. The increasing membership costs, the hours changing, the fee situation, I can’t support them in good faith anymore.

If you sign up for this place, you will never be able to cancel. I signed up in January of 2024. When first signed up, I asked the young man who was signing me up if I could cancel if I did not like it. He told me I could cancel in the first month if I did not like it. I did not like the gym. So I went in after two weeks and tried to cancel. I was told I could not cancel it until a year had passed. If I wanted to, I could talk to a manager, but no managers were in. I chalked it up to a loss. The guy who signed me up had been working a lot and was tired. Maybe he misunderstood what I was asking in the initial meeting. I would eat it for a year, and just cancel it once the year was over. Flash forward until today. A year of my membership was almost up, so I figured I get ahead of it and put in the cancel request now. However, now I was told I would not be able to cancel until 2026. Again, no manager was working, and I would have to come back another day if I wanted to talk to one. I have a sneaking suspicion, that once 2026 rolls around I will be unable to cancel until 2027. This gym is just like planet fitness. The sales guys will tell you anything to get you to sign up, but once you do you are never able to cancel. They have denying cancellation down to a system. You will ask to cancel, they will spin the monitor screen around and point to a date that is a year away, tell you you can cancel then, and no manager available to speak to you. Rinse, wash, and repeat forever.

The staff is super friendly, nice, and happy to help with any questions or problems. I love the classes and all the instructors and they are super knowledgeable and motivating. Everyone I've met at the gym has also been very friendly. I miss some of the classes, especially les mills core, and I would love to see the gym bring in more new classes and more classes in the early morning.

I am completely in love with Edge In Media. It’s convenient and has every single machine I need to hit my goals! I go every single day and the staff is absolutely fantastic! Friendliest staff I’ve met in a while, each and every person is consistently wonderful and welcoming! The energy there pumps me up and makes me happy, the classes are great, the trainers are amazing, the place is clean and I can drop my kids off in the babysitting room for 2 hours of “de-stimulation” time for mommy🙃

I have been coming here for 1 1/2 yrs+ and have never felt so good after a workout. The infrared energy is truly healing so you don't feel soreness days later like you normally would and it's always good for your body/lymphatic system to sweat out toxins. This is suitable for ALL workout levels. You WILL get results if you are consistent. My favorite gym by far and the staff is very friendly and welcoming ☺️

I absolutely love HOTWORX! I’m a fan of sauna, and working out in heat allows me to get a good workout in in less time. The facility is immaculately clean and Jen is there all the time with a big smile. She actually knows most of the members names and is very helpful. The instructors are great! Very professional and encouraging. I recommend HOTWORX strongly. Just give it a try and I know you will be hooked like me.

I have been working out at hotworx for a few months and it is a game changer for my overall health/body/mind!! I love the studio, the exercises, and the staff is super friendly/helpful. I look forward to coming every time!! Definitely recommend.

I had been looking for a gym/workout studio that was close by and wouldn't break the bank - thank goodness I found Hotworx! It's only been a few weeks since I've joined but so far it's been a great experience. Staff is super friendly and the variety of classes keeps me from getting bored. I love that it's 24/7; the studio has safety measures in place so you feel safe and comfortable working out at any hour of the day. They're fairly new to the area - highly suggest giving them a try.

I love love love Hotworx! You can pretty much set your sauna from lowest to highest setting. There are a bunch of different workouts you can do and I can go whenever I want. I leave feeling amazing and detoxified. I highly recommend this studio!

Seriously one of the best YMCAs on the east coast. I've been to dozens up and down the region and this location NAILS it 🔨 Hot tub, giant sauna, giant pool, giant indoor waterpark, giant gym, giant indoor track, giant outdoor walking track, giant forested trail in the back... 🌳 The staff are awesome, just make sure to tell them "Nationwide" if you're from out if state. I've had some of the best and most fun workouts here!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟

Very clean and friendly staff. Pools are great. Only dry sauna. No steam room. They have a water slide/pool for families with kids from 4-8 pm on weekdays(have to check for weekends).

This gym does everything amazing, and I would totally join as a local member if I could. One of the best, if not the best, Y's I have ever been to. Only minor issue is sometimes courts get too crowded and lots of yelling for those with families.

Rocky run YMCA's Family pool is good. clean if you come early . We can use some toys and splash shower. Also weekdays are open for family pool. Family locker room has just one shower room. We can use women's locker room there is 8 or 10 shower room. Exercise area also clean. They have routine for cleanup I think Some instructors are senior for Studio group exercise. Rocky run ymca's average age is high for user and studio group exercise. Instructors as well. Water server is Both Cold and Hot water, Good for me cause I perfer warm water. Here Parking lot has not for children with parents spot, But handicap spot a lot.

I really love coming to the Rocky Run YMCA! There is sooo much to do....plenty of classes, equipment and weights etc. Thank You to ALL the wonderful Trainers that was apart of the Livestrong Program who helped get my strength and motivation back....their encouragement was everything! I will continue to keep up the great work!

I love this Pure Barre studio so much! Every instructor has been wonderful - so supportive, and helpful, and motivating. I started here almost a year ago taking one class a week, then I increased my membership to two classes a week, and now I have an unlimited membership and it's the best thing I've done for myself in a long time. Pure Barre classes are the best part of my day!

I love it here! The instructors are so friendly and help you with your individual needs. It’s such a positive atmosphere. There are so many different types of classes to choose from - all challenging workouts. It’s a great place to go if you are a beginner or have been taking barre classes for years.

I planned on attending a free class today to get the experience of this facility before joining. Because I could not find grip socks anywhere in-store and refused to pay $18 for one pair of grip socks at this facility, I could not participate in the class. I refused to pay $18 for one pair of socks, which is almost the cost of a membership here. I would suggest, if you’re going to charge $18 for a pair of socks, especially if a customer cannot find them other than ordering from Amazon (which I don’t shop) then maybe add an incentive with the purchase because that’s ridiculous to charge that much, when they’re sold for $5-6. I get it…inflation is real but really?? Sharing my experience because I’m an influencer and would rather do a review then sharing on social media with over 100k followers.

Hi everyone!! I just became a member earlier this month and every membership is a 3-month commitment, just as a heads up. So for my specific membership, I have 4 classes a month for three months, altogether I gave 12 classes. Not bad at all. I will say I enjoy the experience and the instructors, as they are very cheery and helpful. Meeting new folks is my goal too but I have an appreciation for Pure Barre's exercises as it teaches us about core building, upper body strength building, and lower body strength building. The workouts are no joke but I can't wait to see my hard work pay off. The membership keeps me accountable and focused because I want my money's worth. The only thing I will say is that there is good amount to remember. For example, for the month of November and December, I can't schedule classes until the thirteenth of the month because this is the day that the invoices draft every month. I just recently was reminded of this after I couldn't schedule a class for next week. Harlee has been very helpful and I appreciate that because I am texting her often for clarification. It kind of sucks that I won't be able to take classes from now until after November 13th. Also, make sure to arrive a few minutes before your class or they won't let you in at all and be aware of late fees and cancellation fees. I usually get there few mins early but this is something they often remind members/customers. I wish I was educated more on some of the rules and need-to-know information when they first sold me the membership in store. Also, something very important you should know is that if you cancel before the 3 month membership is up, they will charge you an arm and a leg which means a few hundred dollars. So please please pleaseeee make sure you find out all the important info and ask as many questions as you can before spending your money on a Pure Barre membership.

This class was a challenge for me and I enjoyed it! I felt welcomed, and Heather, my instructor, took her time to explain things before class. She made me feel like a superstar in class even when I was not feeling certain of myself. I highly recommend it!

I attended Steph’s yoga class at the “House of Arts - Yoga” couple weeks ago. The classes are definitely open, even though Google maps incorrectly shows this location as temporarily closed. The classes were on weekdays in the mornings. Steph is a wonderful instructor and takes the time for individualized guidance & teaching where necessary. I enjoyed the challenging Vinyasa and Bikram poses in Steph’s class. Also the location doubles up as a studio for martial arts and is super-clean & has some of the martial arts instructors joining in in the yoga class too. Felt very welcomed by everyone. Will definitely be attending again.

Steph is a great instructor. Class is well paced and accessible to all levels. As a beginner, I feel comfortable and challenged. Looking forward to my next session!

This is one of the most welcoming and nurturing yoga studios around. Lisa, especially, is a blast to work with -- she has a great sense of humor but that doesn't mean she doesn't take her knowledge and expertise seriously. She always keeps an eye on each individual and gives great guidance. It's always a lovely experience to take class here.

I’ve been going to Sarva for about two years. I couldn’t recommend them more! Lisa and her team are exceptional. They go out of their way to make sure everyone’s form is correct and that everyone feels welcome. I have learned so much since going there and look forward to class. Prices are fair, studio is clean and intimate, and you will leaving feeling great physically and mentally.

I've been going to Sarva since December 2022. All of the instructors are great and accommodate all levels of participants. As a "senior" who's been doing yoga for decades, these classes encourage me to maintain my flexibility, balance, and strength, while giving me the option of pushing myself a bit further than I'd do at home. And you can't beat the location: Media, PA!

It has been close to three years since Sarva became my yoga home. With deep gratitude to Lisa and Jack for not only being amazing teachers, but kind, caring people. My practice has gone to a new level with their guidance. Even during these challenging times, Lisa and Jack keep the practice and spirit of Sarva alive. Many thanks and looking forward to sharing time at the studio. Peace!

I go to Sarva about twice a week. Jack and Lisa are great teachers with different styles. Classes range from a beginner's series where you learn poses, to a standard yoga class to a heated yoga class. All are different and beneficial in their own ways. Overall great teachers and a great studio.

Nice place to get your barre on. I enjoy the yoga classes. Instructors make the class enjoyable for ever level.

Love this place. It's relaxing and the instructors are very knowledgable.
