Editorial Review for 12th Street Gym – by Craig Gotsill
In Short
Find 60,000 square feet of some of the finest cardio and strength-training equipment in the city. Plus, it's subtly attached to Soleil, a well-run and temptingly affordable tanning salon. The four-week Team Delta Boot Camp Fitness Program offers all the joys of basic training without the hassle of joining the Army. Classes begin each morning at 5:55am, rain or shine, and get you running in cadence, sweating through calisthenics, and enduring the gentle urging of hard-core drill instructors.

I've been a member at 12th Street forever. If you're into aerobics this is the place. NO other gym in the City can compete with the variety and excellence of every class. The instructors are all phenominal, especially Stacey who teaches the Tai Bo Classes. The dance classes also are amazing especially the ones taught by Stepp and Antonio. This place is more than a regular gym. It makes working out fun and the atmosphere is great.

I heart 12th St Gym...and I am not a gym person by nature. 12th St just has good energy -- I actually enjoy being there! It's totally unpretentious - not to mention clean and inexpensive. And they recently upgraded most of the cardio jawns to have TV. [I need all the distraction possible for cardio.] The yoga classes & teachers are great -- I esp. recommend Stephanie's Yoga classes - Yoga Zen on Thurs & Daoyin Yoga on Sat. It's Chinese-style yoga -- so kinda like yoga mixed w/ tai chi... She's a fabulous instructor and her classes will kick your butt ... in a figurative & metaphysical way!
Pros: Good Value, Yoga Classes, Cardio Machines, Location
Cons: Super crowded after work...but that's inevitable
