content: Yes- it is an \""Active\"" club....not nearly as impressive as the big Super Sport gyms (I guess AZ only has Sport gyms..?). Yes- this location, which was once my local gym, is not close anymore- 35 minutes away from me (grrr).. But, YES- i drove that 35 minutes today to go to Melanie's TKB class.\n\n1) I'm completely appalled that the 24 hr. locations in the valley have scaled back a lot on their offering of TKB classes (screw Zumba-  can we say TREND?? I did that crap when it was new on VIDEOS'...hello, good workout, old news). \n\n2) Resulting from that scaling back, I can't believe there was ONE TKB class on a SATURDAY at any location. Given, it was my old home location, and given, I would have driven it anyway, but still- that's crazy.\n\n3) In the 15+ years I've been kickboxing, and in all the gyms I've been loyal to (24 hour and Golds locations in 7 different states), Melanie is by far, one of the best instructors. She breaks everything down making every move of the choreography easy for beginners (and those that lack coordination skills- i had to say it), yet she creates intensity for those of us that are far from beginner-level. She literally kicks my ass every time I take her class- AWESOME.\n\nTotally worth the drive for the great workout. \n\n*Disclaimer: 24 Hour Gyms in the Valley are killing me- succumbing to the trends of fitness rather than sustaining programs that literally give you a total body workout. (stepping off of soapbox now......)
