FFC Oak Park - Oak Park, Illinois

Jamie Beamish

Great management and training staff. Clean and pristine. Always had fresh towels available, big lockers, powerful freshly renovated steam room and hot tub too.

Big spaces, never over crowded. Local members always happy for a chat, good atmosphere. I built a gym for my line of work, but still enjoy coming to FFC as it has all the bells and whistles. Became a second home.

Been a member since summer of 2021 and I’m considering cancelling my membership simply because the state of the facility isn’t worth the expense.

First off, the only way to access the gym is by elevator. There are only two elevators that seem to be ancient, and only one has been operational for the last year. Therefore everyone is always crowding around the lobby waiting for the chance to get upstairs, and are often late for the classes they’re signed up for as a result.

There are never any towels available in the locker room or on the gym floor, there are maybe only 2 showers that have any water pressure or warm water, at least one of the showers has a broken knob so you can only choose between ice water or boiling, some showers have broken locks, the steam room is no warmer than the yoga studio, and after years of expressing that they need to offer boxing classes or more circuit classes, nothing has changed.

The second floor mezzanine could be much better used for boxing classes than just having treadmills up there. There’s already more than enough treadmills and ellipticals on the main fitness floor.

I was also less than impressed with the physical therapy offered by Rush at this location. The office is too small and many times you have to do your PT exercises on a massage table in an adjacent room. Poorly planned.

Might as well just sign up for the YMCA since there’s nothing remotely luxurious or innovative about this place that warrants their membership pricing.

Facilities are exquisite. Staff is friendly. Only gripe is that the elevators are constantly down. Not both just one. The wait to get one isn’t bad but to be smushed up 12 deep in an elevator full of geriatrics is tough. Also the fitness director Mario has great glutes and is always helpful.

The gym isn’t clean and the employees act like they don’t want to be there. We were members of FFC in the past and it was a very different experience. It seems like they’ve just become complacent. I called to cancel and the person I spoke to lived up to my description. It seemed like I was interrupting what he was doing. He said they want to charge me for another month. When I said I’d like to speak to the manager he said “she’ll call when she can”. Really disappointing for the amount of money we pay to be members.

This place is a great time. They hosted the diddy party with John haggonson and Quinn Paris. Even the mosquito John Anderson was there. It’s always a good time at ffc especially when HAGGO the shark is there

Staff acted with a lack of ethics or empathy when I went here. I have not been back since.

The first month (with no commitment) at the YMCA literally a block down is $30.

I got their signature facial today with Julie & she was absolutely AMAZING!!! She made me feel so comfortable & relaxed. My skin feels rejuvenated, clean, and so hydrated. Thank you for a wonderful experience today I can’t wait to be back.

Snubby and overpriced but back when I would go in October it was good gym, not crowded and fresh equipment, everything new or like new. Great bball court. Pool lanes reserved and they’ll kick u out for even trying a lot of the time, which they do tell you in advance about but still feels terrible bc you’re paying an incredible amount for this gym that includes this pool, right, but you’re still liable to getting Rosa Parksed for being Caucasian and then going to get an energy drink and you’re told it’s $5 and so you walk back downstairs empty handed having not not been able to use the pool and you just leave and cancel your membership.
