Today I was asked by friends to go work out at their gym, LA Fitness-Stevenson Ranch. Even though I currently belong to Golds Gym-Valencia , I was interested in The LA Fitness-Stevenson Ranch because it is closer to my home and I thought would be more convenient. I was so disappointed with my visit it reaffirmed to me that I will be keeping my membership with Golds Gym. Upon walking in I was greeted by the girl at the front desk but she didnt sound happy to be there. She directed me to one of the salesmen who gave me the general run down of the place and also said welcome. So I went to the locker room, changed out, and walked to the free weight area. Not many people present on a Saturday at 1:30 in the afternoon which was nice. And then the poor experience started. Dumb bells! Oh there are plenty of them but you have to hunt for them because if they arent just lying around on the floor somewhere then they are probably on the racks but not even close to where they should be. The rack is simply identified with the weight that should go in the specific spot but apparently nobody cares enough to put them in the appropriate spot. So you spend a couple minutes finding what you need and when finished you spend a couple minutes moving weights around so that you can put your weights in the appropriate spot. Seems simple and maybe petty, but I came to work out not clean house. Lots of free weights too! Just look around on the floor and you will see plenty because apparently clients dont have to put them away either. I guess the best way to describe it is like this, you work out at a station and when you are finished you just walk away. You dont put ANYTHING back to its original location so that the next person can use it. Empty water bottles lying around and nobody claiming ownership. It was like I was in some teenagers room that had weights in it. Not once did I see an employee walking around. I didnt need one but, visual presence makes a big difference. This gym has the ability to be very successful but, just opening the door and then cleaning up the mess at closing time will cause you to lose customers rather than gain them. I can tell you this, when I walk into my gym I am greeted by an energetic employee that sounds like they are happy I came in. There is always an employee or more walking around maintaining the gym, offering assistance, picking up weights, trash or whatever. Simple things but significant impact. Thank you for allowing me to visit your gym, use your weights and share my experience.

I have been a member of LA fitness for several years now. I was going to the LA fitness on Newhall Road and then they opened the one in Stevenson Ranch. I understand the frustration of the other reviewers about the weights not being put back on the racks, but that is my only complaint. If everyone would just pick up after themselves it would be a much enjoyable place to workout. I think it is really annoying that the guys that put several 45 lb weights on the equipment do not take them off when they are done. Otherwise this gym is clean and well maintained the people that work there are there to help you, not wait on you and clean up your messes. The girls up front are busy, they are not there to socialize they are working, so give them a break! I like this gym because it is smaller than the other gyms and it is convenient for me, I love this gym despite its members.

I have only been a member since February of this year. I have been taking the Body Works and Abs class on Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings. Until about 6 weeks ago Tracy taught both classes. For the last 6 weeks we have 3 different substitutes. I didnt think I would like having 3 different ones but I actually really like it. Jodi, Brent and Apolonia are great! Each one has their own style of teaching. Brent makes it challenging and fun! Jodis class is probably the hardest but I love it!, Apolonias class kicks butt too!

I would say the main downfall of this gym is the girls that greet you at the door. Most of them are completely rude, instead of greeting you with a smile they just hold out their hand waiting for you to hand over your barcode. Your job isnt that hard, ladies. I do enjoy this gym though because it is so close to my house, never over-crowded, and all the equipment is new.

LOL at the spoiled Santa Clarita people complaining about weights not being in the right numbered spots......... Untill you visit LA fitness in Sherman oaks / Van Nuys, you will not know what a gym is suppose to be. This place is awesome. Plenty of room and NEVER busy compared to Sherman oaks location. Spoiled people!

Well maintained, and plenty of benches and machines for larger numbers of people to work out. My only complaint, like others here, is that I did spend more time looking for dumb bells than I ever have before. I noticed other lifters rolling their eyes and sighing when trying to find them as well.

Greatest reception girls and gentlemen. Always welcoming and friendly. After a days of work I really need to unwind... so thats exactly what I need.

Always clean and workers constantly re-racking weights. Newer equipment and not as over crowded as other branches.
