Midtown Athletic Club

EDIT: after being a member for a couple years now I wanted to update my review: I love midtown so much the atmosphere, classes/instructors, amenities, sense of community, vibes and more are just so good - You feel so empowered and good about yourself when here and after. Shout out to some of my fav instructors: for yoga - Erin G, Emma S, Camille D! For Pilates / Barre /Dance: Jen R, Kelsi, Emily, and Lisbeth!!! And for spin: Ashley!!!! Honestly everyone is great! Also shout out to the entire front desk (esp Rach and Kenni) they are always so kind and beyond welcoming every day! Couldn’t recommend this club more to those looking to join!☺️🧘🏽‍♀️🙌🏾✨

I’m blown away by the amount of weekly classes and the top notch instructors! There’s something for everyone! A very welcoming club with very nice amenities. There are so many other fitness facilities but Midtown truly takes it up a notch and much more. It’s so worth the monthly fee as it’s not just a club/gym, it’s a lifestyle. A lifestyle focussing on health and wellness. I joined a month ago and it’s the best thing I’ve done for myself! Truly grateful.

Our family absolutely loves Midtown Athletic Club. My husband, my son, and I all genuinely enjoy spending time here, and it has become one of our favorite places to be. The facilities are excellent, the atmosphere is welcoming, and there is truly something for every age and interest. One of the biggest highlights for us has been pickleball, especially working with Jason Mathias, who is hands down the best coach we could ask for. Jason is always on time, incredibly knowledgeable, and explains the game in a way that is clear, encouraging, and easy to understand. He corrects us thoughtfully, makes sure everyone understands the rules, and consistently acknowledges when we do well, which makes learning both fun and motivating. His passion and professionalism really stand out. Overall, Midtown is an outstanding club with exceptional staff and programs—we truly feel lucky to be members and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-tier athletic club experience.

This gym is Rochester's version of Equinox/Life Time at a similar price point. There are several pro's and con's. The gym is fairly nice and well maintained with amenities such as: outdoor pool/hot-tub, steam room, sauna. They also offer several classes throughout the day that are included in your membership. However, for someone like myself that would come after work (~5pm) this place is a zoo. It was always a challenge to find parking and sometimes I would have to park in the furthest lot and walk through the sludge just to get to the front door. Once you get in, you will be packed in like a sardine in the change room and then work-out's will be challenging because of how busy the place is. They only have one machine for certain exercises (biceps, calf raise, shoulder press). You would think at this price point, there would be limited interest, but that is not the case. I made the mistake of touring on a weekend when it was not busy, so I recommend you tour during the time you plan on going to the gym. If you are someone that works out in the morning or works from home, this place may be ideal. By the time I realized I was not enjoying the experience, it was too late to back out because you will be locked into the membership for a year. Choose wisely! Hope this helps in your gym search.

⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five Stars — Truly My Second Home Midtown Athletic Club I have been going to Midtown Athletic Club for a long time, and I honestly cannot express how much I love this place. From the moment I walk in, I am treated like a queen. The front desk women are absolutely amazing — warm, welcoming, kind, and genuinely caring. Ashley , Emily ,” Rachel A “and Jass at the front desk are incredible amazing and super women , the most along with the entire team. They always greet me with smiles and positive energy, making every visit feel special and uplifting. If you’re looking for a personal trainer, I highly recommend Ania. She is not only my friend but an exceptional trainer — knowledgeable, supportive, motivating, and one of the sweetest people you’ll ever meet. She truly cares and makes every session empowering and enjoyable. The entire staff is wonderful. Every employee makes you feel seen, respected, and valued. The energy here is unmatched. The hot yoga classes are phenomenal, and Randi is a beautiful instructor — calming, inspiring, and incredible at what she does. ✨ If you’re looking for an exceptional massage experience that truly makes a difference, I can’t recommend Jackie enough. Her care, attention to detail, and intuitive touch make every session feel personalized and deeply restorative.🫶🏻 The facility itself is stunning — clean, luxurious, and thoughtfully designed. The shop and spa feel high-end and indulgent, and the restaurants are absolutely amazing. The food is delicious, healthy, and perfect for refueling or simply enjoying time there. Midtown isn’t just a gym to me — it’s my second home. Having my locker, my routine, my space… it’s where I feel safe, happy, confident, and empowered. I’ve built such a beautiful sense of community here — uplifting other women, sharing kindness, compliments, and genuine connection. This is a place where women support women, where you can be strong, kind, friendly, confident, and fully yourself. Midtown has created a culture of joy, respect, and belonging, and I truly believe it makes people happier just by being here. I would recommend Midtown Athletic Club to anyone and everyone. If you’re looking for a place that feels like home, treats you with kindness, and inspires you to be your best self — this is it. 💕 ✨🥹👏🫶🏻
