I’m very sorry to share that despite having a well maintained facility with a friendly atmosphere, I cannot recommend signing a membership contract with Elite Fitness. It is an iron clad contract that makes it unreasonably difficult to cancel - even outside of the original annual timeline. They will ‘auto renew’ your contract without your permission and continue to charge you without remorse or understanding why that might be considered unreasonable and strange. I have not lived in the neighborhood since August of 2021, and it was only this week that I was finally able to cancel my membership - despite multiple requests to do so. This entire issue has cost me over $1,000 in unused gym fees - most notably $300 of that coming from months post the ‘auto renewal’ period that I was never consulted about nor approved. I’m sorry. It’s a well maintained space. But I cannot recommend it unless you are a fan of local businesses trapping customers into unreasonable payments with unreasonable contracts. You are more likely to be tempted into a small claims court than you might be comfortable with doing business with Elite Fitness.
Please do not join this gym no matter how convenient. The owner is creepy and follows you around everywhere. Is obsessed with his gym and has put signs everywhere. Bad machines, worn out, filthy expensive for nothing. Two bathroom which are always dirty and near to no machine is in good shape.
What a wonderful place to workout. Super clean, I think the owner is a clean freak. Very high quality classes & instructors. The class schedule is well rounded but if your looking for a very specifc type of class everyday maybe one of those places that teaches just spin or just boxing would be better for you. I have been a member for about 18 months and have seen a major upgrade in the equipment and they have also done a pretty major upgrade of the studio itself. It doesn't have the feeling that your working out at your apartment like the other gym in the area. This gym flows nicely on two levels and seems to have a large personal training component. I always see members getting trained on the weight room floor and on the Pilates machines. I live on Smith St and have know issue walking past my old gym to get to this one, its well worth the 3 blocks or so.
Great Gym. Super Clean and quiet. If you go after 8, you can expect to have the gym nearly to yourself - an absolute novelty in ny. Great cardio machines. If the gym is ever crowded, it may be difficult to navigate your workout. So, if you're not into classes, make sure to schedule your times strategically. Check in is easy. Don't expect spa like luxuries.
Elite Fitness Studio is by far the best gym/fitness studio I have ever been a member of. Two floors of everything you could ever need. The class schedule is big for a studio & the teachers are top level for the most part. Great for families as well, lots of kids options. I like the rowing classes with Linda & the TRX classes with Delfina. They also have yoga & pilates classes that I hear are really good, the members are always saying how great Shannon & Flo are.
This is a great gym. I never have to wait for equipment, the staff is friendly, and the facilities are clean. The gym like looks small from the street, but the basement is huge.
Amazing experience every time!! David is awesome and always takes time to teach you something new. All the classes are great and leave you wanting more! Recommended to anyone near or far!
