Just recently started working out here and I absolutely love this place. They have so much going on and everything is new and in working condition. Occasionally I use the track to run and it’s a great switch up from the treadmill. Everyone is always friendly. Not to mention it’s affordable– love this place!

Come here to workout and/​or do Zumba quite often. It’s pretty to the point and I love that they offer so much. My husband came to work out with me once and he was told he was not allowed to show me how to work out on certain machines which I thought was pretty ridiculous. They said, «no personal training allowed» which I get but once I said it was my husband and he was showing me how to use the machines they still wouldn’t let it happen. Weird. So I don’t use the machines too often but everything else I like.

This facility is great. They have any and all the fitness classes etc that you may be looking for. They also host a lot of the recreational leagues ie: basketball. It is in a nice little area, surrounded by Tumbleweed park which hosts the ostrich festival every year.
They also keep things very clean and organized!

Membership includes: upstairs includes indoor track, up-​to-​date cardio and weight lifting machines, free weights, miscellaneous equipment, two racquet ball courts and two dance studios which are used for classes as well as they are available for reservation. The downstairs has a full size basketball court, children’s care, more rooms available for reservation from classes to events.
Almost all classes are free with membership. There is a wide variety: Zumba, yoga, dance cardio and more.
The staff is super friendly and helpful. Membership for two Chandler residents is $ 45 a month. Prices differ based off city residency and # of people. The hours they are open are pretty nice except for Sundays. But that’s not a big thing. Overall much nicer than gyms I’ve paid twice the amount for and the indoor track is my personal favorite!

I love their group exercise class! Roberta is the best instructor and she really puts your body to the test. They also have Zumba every night Monday thru Thursday at 8:00 PM, Friday at 6:00 PM and Saturday at 11:30 PM. Laura is my favorite Zumba instructor and she works the Saturday class.
Gym has lots of different options for a great workout too!

I really like Tumbleweed Rec Center. They are open late enough that I can get a workout in after work. They have a variety of machines to use. I also really like the indoor track. They also offer a lot of fitness classes, but I haven’t tried any yet.
It’s clean and well maintained. I like working out there.

This is a really good recreational center. Plenty of dance rooms, space, equipment and even a indoor running track. There’s TVs and couches and vending machines too! Outside of the center is a giant park. And plenty of parking.
I love that dance and workout classes are held here. Of course, if you want to host your own, you can sign up to do that too. Whatever activity you want to do, I’m sure they are equipped for it. During the summer days, the indoor running track will keep you cool and prevent sunburn! Check this place out!
There are fees for using the place so be sure to check the website. You are charged less if you are a Chandler resident the last time I checked.

We just moved to the area and were looking for a good place to work out. We decided to try the rec center and got a 1 week trial period. We worked out at different times during the day and were always able to get a treadmill or elliptical. I love that the classes are included in the month to month membership-​no contracts too!

One of the best and biggest park here. I think the scenery is beautiful and spacious. There is a park along side many places to walk your dog or play football in. I love it here. I feel like a little kid coming here. Also, they have shade (which is a must especially for the summer time). I just came here today for the Fourth of July Fireworks and it was beautiful and packed with so many kids and family screaming, «Oooo, ahhh!» It was wonderful!

LOVE Tumbleweed! Both the park and rec center! I’m here several times a week. They have a lot of classes to offer for both adults and kids. My kids are always signed up for something here. The facility is huge! It is really kept nice and clean. The exercise machines are in great condition. Good variety of fitness classes. Memberships are very reasonably priced. My only gripes are that child care is not included in your membership. You can buy a 20 visit pass for $ 40 for childcare. And they don’t have a pool :(Otherwise, I’m a huge fan!
Keep a close eye on your kids at the park! It’s huge and there are lots of kids so you could easily lose them if you’re not paying attention.

I absolutely love this park! It is huge!
My daughter and I came here for the first time today. She absolutely LOVED playing here.
We only spent about an hour here today due to the cold and my pressing schedule, but I was forced to promise we’d be back soon.
There are so many cool parts to this park.
My favorite is the Farm Land area, with the huge jungle gyms covered by shade. I can see how this would be a great benefit in the Summer. My daughter’s favorite part was Critter Land, which featured a giant gila monster and some dinosaur bones that you can uncover.
The rec center is ginormous and you can rent parts of it out for different events, including birthday parties. I might be doing that next month when my kiddo turns 5!
We will definitely be back to Tumbleweed soon!

This review is for the step classes on Wed nights and Sat mornings only.
Jody is a great step instructor. The class is not your basic, boring step class. She uses the same moves, but in different orders each time, and also adds new moves to the mix each time, as well. Her class kind of reminds me of dance drills or marching band – it’s not a bunch of boring «8 on this side – 8 on the other side – now 4 – now other side, 4 – now 2 — now 2 on other side – now alternate — » etc. If you used to like step but think it’s sooo out now, give this class a try. It’s much different than step of yesteryear, and you may be pleasantly surprised. She even mixed it up one week and gave us a sort-​of step bootcamp, where we did step things for our cardio, and used weights in between for a dual workout.

Great place for a gym, racquetball courts, tennis courts, fields, etc. They also hold the city events there often… great classes and activities for kids.

Honestly a great rec center. They have an awesome gym, the prices are really good for family packs, and the parks surrounding the center are beautiful and well-​maintained.
My 4 year old daughter goes to Apples to Zebras preschool and Club Pee Wee as well. She loves her classes and they are actually helping her get ready for school. She has «homework» each week and loves going each day. I highly recommend this for parents wanting to prep their kiddos for school. Unlike the Chandler Community Center Apples to Zebras program, this one actually has a decent curriculum. Although, the other program is great as well if you are wanting a daycare type environment instead of preschool.
The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable and registering for classes online is super easy.
If you haven’t stopped by, go check it out!

I’m a fan of this place because:
— their staff does their job: they are nice, greet you, and keep the place in tip-​top cleanliness state and all machines are operational (meaning they up-​keep well)
— their classes vary and they have a convenient schedule of different types of classes
— it is a modern, clean facility; has an indoor running track and plenty of new machines that have their own TVs with cable; also have a lot of machines and a great selection of free weights for those of us that prefer free weights over cable machines.

This facility has so much to offer! There is really something for everyone in your family from children up to seniors.
The gym is awesome — they have cardio machines, weight machines, free weights and group classes. Childcare is available and I’ll be interested in checking that out when my little one is big enough. Room/​space rental is available for parties, meetings, etc. Chandler residents get to enjoy slightly lower prices than non-​residents, but I think all of the fees are very reasonable.
In the heat of the summer, the indoor track is a good place to go to get a real walk in! 10 laps = 1 mile. Tip to Parents: Strollers and children are allowed during family walk times.

This is by far one of our favorite parks. Have you seen the covered jungle gym? It is awesome!
We love coming here. My son could play here for hours. We also ride our bikes along the path. You can stay on the paved walkway or follow the dirt trail that would lead you along the perimeter of the park.
There are several huge ramadas and smaller ramadas around the playground to reserve for parties.
The recreation center is beautiful. So many classes are offered here. They even do family events several evenings a week! All kinds of activities for toddlers, children, teenagers and adults! Check out the website for more info on this.
Come summertime, if your kid is bouncing still off the walls in the eve, take them here to tire them out!
I highly recommend this place. Just don’t tell too many people!
