My Gym Children’s Fitness Center

We have only ever tried the West Hartford My Gym location, but were in the Enfield area for a date night dinner and decided to try the Enfield Parents Night Out. The space seems much smaller, but it is very clean and the staff were just as friendly. My son had a great time and liked that it was less crowded and chaotic since there were fewer children present.

I have been here on two separate occasions for birthday parties. The birthday girls were four years old. My son had a great time there. It’s really clean and organized. The employees that host the party do a great job being involving all the kids in different activities.
The kids take of their shoes and socks, parents have socks on prior to entering the gym area. They have everything from a ball pit, slide, rock climbing wall, trampolines… there’s a decent selection. Everything looks brand new. They have different things that they plan for the kids, so they can all play together. They make the birthday child feel pretty special. My son loves the ball pit. Once play time is over, the kids eat cake and whatever else the parents plan. They get to go through the awesome zipline afterwards.
It’s pretty sweet. I am jealous, they didn’t have things this cool when I was a kid. It’s a great place for a party! I would totally book here next year! Love it!

It’s a new location so it has the perks of the equipment being new and the location being very clean. There is a lot for your little one to do and run around. This place is ideal for toddlers who are starting to play and interact with other their age.
The reason I’m not giving this gym more stars is because the price is $ 80.00 a month plus an additional $ 75.00 one time lifetime fee. I would understand the price if they offered more than just 3 open play times a week that lasted more than just 50 minutes. It also doesn’t help that the hours they have available for open play are almost impossible to attend since they are offered at such awkward times.
You are essentially then paying for $ 20.00 for a 50 minute class once a week. Which brings me to the other point, the classes are great if your child allows you to move them like a puppet and have no free will. If your child likes to explore this «structured class» will be hell. There is only 2 staffed members to over 10 children and very little equipment when they so structured play. This makes the kids impatient since they are waiting so long for their turn and by the time it is their turn they are either screaming or pulling away from you so they can play with other equipment in the gym, which the instructors don’t encourage since sit down time and structured time needs to be respected.
I will not be renewing my membership but I since I already paid for the lifetime membership this allows me to attend open play by paying a additional $ 5.00 when I bring my toddler.
Fingers crossed they add more of those and that 13 year old boys won’t be pushing my toddler or other people’s kids around when I do attend.
