UFC GYM Lancaster

It is with a very heavy heart that I write this review. I've been a member since July of 2022. Since that time, I've made best friends here, found my life partner here, and I've genuinely felt like I had a place where everyone was welcomed and belonged. I loved everything about it. However, simultaneously during that time. I've watched highly qualified coaches like Kodie, Barz, Charles, Jacob, and Lauren all get treated like they were of no significance to the very gym that needs them, by upper management. There are new coaches/front desk associates hired every other month because upper management is unwilling to adapt to change, hyper controlling, and has an intrinsic misogyny that carries out into all of his actions. He does not hire female staff and when he does, he lies and misuses them. Since I've been there, there have been at least 16 different coaches for classes. Half of the classes advertised on the window aren't even offered. Classes and coaches come and go so fast you'd think the gym was a bus station. I've watched really talented and great people get diminished in their craft because of management and then leave for something better. There was a time, I would have done anything to help this gym thrive. I would offer up my time for free to help keep the gym functioning. I cared so much about this place because of the amazing people I met through it. But all those amazing people left, including my friends that I made here. The general vibes in the gym are so toxic. Toxic masculinity and toxic femininity it runs rampant through the gym now. Over those 2.5ish years I've watched this gym crumble and my community of friends, coaches, and sense of belonging disappear with it, all after personally experiencing issues with upper management. If you'd have asked me 2 years ago if it was worth it to be in this gym, I wouldn't have hesitated a millisecond before screaming "absolutely" at you. If you ask me today, I'd tell you to try the Foundry of Lancaster, Power Level Fitness, or hell, even Crunch across the street. This gym is not what it once was, and at the rate it's going, it will never be that again.

A family environment, to say the least!! The whole family enjoys this gym in so many different ways (self defense, conditioning, strength training, martial arts) they literally offer it all, and it’s all included in the price! The coaches are top notch and care about each individual’s goals and health concerns. They have also set the standard for cleanliness! In short this gym has been the cornerstone of my family’s physical and mental health, especially in such a turbulent year. Thank you UFC for all you do for me and my family!

Excellent, well staffed and clean gym and equipment! A large variety of amazing classes. Staff is the best! They not only provide the tools and equipment but create a welcoming, knowledgeable and respectful environment for everyone!

If you’re looking for the right motivation and classes to reach your fitness goals, UFC gym is the place to go! Not only do they provide many different classes for adult members, they also have kid’s classes that ranging from regular HIIT to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Perfect for families wanting to live and active lifestyle together or kids needing an outlet for their energy after school! The staff at UFC has been wonderful and friendly! They always make you feel welcome and applaud you for the hard-work you’re putting in! Don't forget the smoothie bar, where you can choose from many different options! & the Saunas in the locker rooms to top it all off! See ya there!

This gym is excellent! Regardless of your level of fitness, every trainer is very friendly and shows interest in you. I adore how they provide me with advice on how to maximize each workout. I've been attending for a little while now, and I've already seen a significant improvement in my physique and energy. I have been blown away by my experience at this new facility, and I am definitely satisfied so far! Steve, the manager, is 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟!
