Been to a few different moco rec centers but this one didn't have a lot of pictures of the fitness center. I was curious so I took the trip out to see what it was like. Honestly the room isn't that big and one of the treadmills was broken. The other felt like it needed a belt tightened because the pad kept slipping. Otherwise the rest of the equipment was just fine. My biggest concern were the open mouse/rat/bug traps in the foyer. If those are out in the open, I'm guessing the building has a problem.
The exercise room has 3 tread mills, 2 stationary bikes and an elliptical. There is plenty of weight lifting equipment and there are lockers available. Also a seating area to rest. The facility is clean and staff are friendly.
Good option of Pickleball indoors but its hard to play two points consecutive without being stopped and collecting balls from other courts. There are about 6 inches separate between courts....
Great pickleball courts and a very welcoming community. True open play is encouraged here and gives players an opportunity to self-evaluate there own skill levels in accordance to a court with active play. No paddle holders but you can place your 1-2 paddle by the poles of a court and be rotated into the court for play. A que often forms based on who placed their set of paddle first. Can be confusing as to which group goes next as players have set paddles down by either side of the pole. Discussion is also encouraged whether next set of players are splitting with the winners or playing against the winners. Community would do well to indicate one side of the pole for each court to have paddles placed for clear indication of which set of players are playing next. Otherwise, it is a great place to play.
Derwyn, the receptionist, was very pleasant and customer service oriented. She supported me to get registered. Thanks, Darwin. Michelle, the Zumba instructor, was awesome. I am not a Zumba fan; however, Michelle was so attentive to the class that I was impressed with her organized routine. I kept moving , and Michelle made Zumba fun!
