Both my husband and I decided it was time to get in good shape and take our health seriously. Especially with all the circumstances within the last few years. We are both retired and love the ease of using this gym. Everyone is sooo helpful and I LOVE THE POOLS. Best decision ever. πŸ‘ 5 stars.

Love how the whole gym is so clean and inviting. The updates that have been made over the last few years really bring life and energy to the gym.So happy to be working with Nicole!! She is truly one of the best trainers out there. The whole team is great, but she is the only one I have had the pleasure of working with one on one. You all have done incredibly well finding your employees and training them to be so awesome!

By far the best gym I’ve been apart of. All staff are so friendly, tons of equipment, great classes and Nathan is an amazing trainer that I’ve really enjoyed working with. 100% worth the investment!

The fact I am a insanely fat. The staff along with the trainers don’t look at me weird. They all are very encouraging and not pushy at all. Nicole who is my personal trainer is awesome!

Came in there two weeks ago and bought their personal training package. My trainer Nathan has been awesome to work with. He is very passionate about his job and loves helping people. I have a few injuries that I am dealing with and Nathan has been targeting those areas with weights and stretching to strengthen myself to avoid future injuries. He is very knowledgeable in sports related conditioning. I have never worked out in my life. The term working out sounds like a lot of dreadful work. However, I am actually enjoying this and doesnt feel like work. Thank you DAC for assigning Nathan as my personal trainer and I look forward to continuing to achieve my personal health goals!

I love it here! They offer many amenities, so theres something for everyone. The trainers are great! I really have been enjoying the group training. It was easy to jump in as a beginner; everyone was welcoming and helpful and the trainers make sure to give you extra attention until you know what youre doing.

I like the gym, but child care only goes until 1 on Saturdays. It would be nice if they had it until 4 at least! Weekends are really the only time I am able to get to the gym and the afternoon is the only time I have due to scheduling. For the price it would be nice to have more availability on Saturdays for child care.

Review β„–9

So I have been a member since 2012. Ive always paid my account and never before Now had any trouble. In 2018 I had shoulder surgery twice and now have a back injury. I havent been there in about a year and a half ( thinking I would get to go back) and they have still been debiting my account. They received money for services they didnt have to provide. So I called a couple of months back and wanted to cancel. They WOULDNT do it over the phone. So about a month or so later my card got hacked and I had to get a new one notifying everybody I could remember, with them I considered the matter closed. They didnt. They kept charging me. So They call me and want money. I told them again what transpired and they said sorry but its company policy. Yet they changed the Company Policy to let me cancel over the phone once I paid them! The Dac has poor customer service, no loyalty considerations and doesnt know how to take care of their customers. This is not an attack on the employees but rather the ownership and his way of doing business.

Review β„–12

This gym is like no other. You commit to a one year contract and if you move 25 mile or more away and can prove it, it’s no penalty against you which was the first thing I was concerned about. Then the gym it’s self has much to offer it has indoor track, in & out pools dress-room is nice & the ladies clean up behind their self. The cleaning staff is nice. There are Two sides for working out also and you can basically go at your pace with out feeling like your in the way. And the other great amenities to sale you on. They also have high cost trainers.

Review β„–13

Its convenient and has equipment for just about everything. Swimming, Running, Weights, Cardio, Racquetball, Various Fitness Classes, Tanning, Child Care, Smoothie Bar, etc. Its a one stop shop! There is something for everyone no matter your skill or fitness level. I love the classes and the trainers are amazing! The staff is always friendly and available. You just need to add kickboxing bags or classes!!

Review β„–14

This gym is one of the most unorganized and unprofessional places I have ever been. If you want to take their classes you have to validate the schedule between their printed calendar, their app, and their staff because odds are 2 out of the 3 are incorrect. I think the staff means well but most of the time they seem like the problems in their systems are not a big deal and dont seem to care to correct them. I tried leaving my child in the child care area but the staff their are not very observant and I felt uncomfortable leaving my child alone with them. Someone could easily just walk in or out... These kind of behaviors are really unacceptable given the fact that I am paying $80 a month for gym membership and childcare. This place needs to have some serious changes in how it is run or I foresee them loosing a lot of business in the future. Just a warning to anyone looking to join this place.

The regional manager Amy clearly doesn’t like minorities or care for Mexicans. All of my friends for years have came here in slides for no problems. She followed me to the other room just to vibrate on the machine they got I haven’t even broke sweat or work out and she tried to kick me out. Because I wouldn’t give her my name or a real response . Just ask me nicely and I’ll stop I did nothing to you ma’am idk what you got against us but this isn’t the first time.

Review β„–27

They keep charging you no matter how many times you cancel. My wife stopped going in February of 2020 when we cancelled (Covid was coming and we obviously cancelled). We have filled out cancellation forms and called to cancel. It is now the end of August 2021 and Tasha, head of billing, has just told us she cannot find the cancellation forms so to bad for us. She made no attempt to make it right (the constant charges and hassle) and basically blamed us. She conceded that my wife has not been in for over a year and a half but did not care that they are taking our money anyway. She wants emails now, so we will send that as well as this for documentation for legal action if they charge us again. Please let me know with a reply or like if you have similar problems so we can start a class action against this place.

This is a great place for a reasonable price. I love them because they have everything. The outdoor and indoor pool area is my favorite. Wish the Sauna and hot tub would open back up. I understand why they are closed but maybe they could open back up with limited 2 people at a time for social distances reason. Wish I would have join sooner.

I took a 🌟 away due to DAC not enforcing more mask wearing. Theres only a few people besides the ones that work there wears a mask. Ive been very tempted to cancel my membership for this reason, right now Im only using the walking trail with my mask on. Other than for this reason I love DAC!!

Review β„–44

I started my DAC experience December of 2019. I stopped going once everything shut down for Covid in March of 2020 and I continued paying because I knew I had a year contract. HOWEVER my contract was automatically renewed by DAC without my permission!! It even said in the contract details of my app that it was not on β€œAuto-Renew” (although Tasha told me it was automatically done?). I requested a refund and was told they don’t give out refunds and asked me to write a letter stating I want to cancel my contractβ€”which is a little insane considering a phone call should be enough to give notice. My letter apparently hasn’t been received because I was charged again for $78 which is almost $30 more than my contract price. It’s absolutely ridiculous and the business office has been no help whatsoever. I don’t recommend getting tied to this gym.

It’s clean, ton of equipment for whatever body part your doing, CrossFit side, pools, spin, you name it they have it for whatever your fitness needs/interests are. I drive 35 mins almost every day to go to this gym when I have an la fitness literally a mile up the street, that’s how much I like it. I definitely recommend this place!

When I started my weight-loss journey 6 months ago, after touring the DAC I knew there was no other place for me. The staff are always kind, and accommodating.

All the classes are engaging, and fun. Always leaving me excited to return the next visit!!!

Indoor pool and hot tub. Outdoor pool. An indoor walking track. Saunas and showers. Tanning beds. A shake bar for post workout. Kids can go 8-1 and 3-8 Monday thru Friday. They have a commercial equipment side and a more β€œcross fit” training side. They updated a lot of pieces last year which I’m really impressed with. The group classes are always going. I don’t personally do them but the trainers always talk to me and help if I ask for tips. Lots of bang for your buck. Only open 10-6 on sundays and not opened 24/7 but I can sacrifice the hours for the quality I’m getting when it is open. Love this gym!

Review β„–83

Decent gym at most.. If you want to try making some new friends/work out buddies dont come to this Gym though. Most people are insanely rude if you even look at them for one second. Dont get me started on one of the workers there which name I wont be listing to privacy reasons. Said I could pass for free & then charged me $35.00 for a guest although I had a guest pass.. My friend never came back after that. My brother decided to cancel and let me just say.. They REFUSED to let him until he had to clock out of his own work to go to them him self just to force a cancel. Been at this gym for 2-3 years, so yeah. At first it was amazing, but the workers & people there arent the best people. Edit: Dont let my message sway you away though, it still has potential if they fire some of the bad employees. Some of the old ones are outstanding.

Truthfully, Desoto Athletic Club got one star from me because no stars isn’t an option. They have the worst customer service representatives. They are rude people who aren’t willing to help their customers at all. They find new ways to screw me over every month on my billing. Hidden fees+additional fees. The only reason I still pay them for their service is because of a one year contract. I regret signing a contract with this gym and strongly encourage people who are looking for a gym to keep looking and don’t settle here.
