From the reviews
I had a fantastic time at this location in the lap lane & water walk. Peaceful, staff very helpful, and respectful with smiles. This location will be my weekly Thursdays 06:00AM Y.
…A variety of equipment etc; pools(in/out, therapy), sauna, a ton of various cardio equipment, my mom takes group class stuff which she loves, a walking track, the weight area has great quality equipment and alot of it. I'm not competitive lifting etc and I'm not in my 20s and for 99.
…Collegiate sized pool and exercise floor with weights, treadmills, and machines, and track are well staffed, maintained, stocked, and clean. Studio space is well lighted and spacious. I go regularly and plan to continue in 2026. A gem of a gym for Gahanna residents.
