Testimonials

MVAC is an awesome facility to attend. From the smiling faces from the girls at the front desk, to the skilled trainers running the weight room, most of the staff here has been highly supportive. Especially going through an 80lb. transformation, the journey was long and rigorous and having someone to talk to, or getting advice really means a lot. Health wise, I turned into a "monster," weather it be anything with cardio, lifting weights, or even body shaping, I'm in phenomenal shape and most importantly I feel great. For anyone who wants to get in shape and have fun doing it, I highly recommend MVAC to you.

I have belonged to 4 other Health Clubs through the years and have never been as happy with the facility and programs. The Menifee Valley Athletic Club staff always makes me feel special. The Personal Trainers have always extended themselves to assist me with my free weight program. The relationship with members and staff add to the enjoyment I get from my workout and I have never felt better.

I joined MVAC in 2005. I wanted a local gym with a family atmosphere. I have that with MVAC. The new facility is amazing! Everything is state of the art. My absolute favorite thing is SPIN class. I go every day. It is the best cardio exercise you can get. All the teachers are great, they all bring their own personal talents to the classes. They offer other great classes and you can take as many classes as you want all for the price of your membership. MVAC is always trying to bring new classes to the club to keep it fun for their members. (For me it will always be SPIN!)

All the trainers, teachers, management, and front desk are always there to answer any questions.

THANK YOU MVAC

Dear Menifee Valley Athletic Club,

My family and I have been with your club for ten months as of the writing of this letter and we would like to comment on what we find best about your gym and its staff. From the very beginning we noticed how alive the staff is. They were energetic and friendly always having a smile. If that was not good enough they went above and beyond the call for customer service and reached out to us with our workouts. They gave advice to achieve a better and more effective workouts from the first workout. When it came to questions we had about different subjects we were always given a fast, friendly, and accurate answer. If the staff member who assisted us did not know the answer they made sure that they found the correct person who did. Overall, in the ten months of our membership your staff has shown us that they truly care about us and not how much money we provide. This still blows me away as we have checked out other gyms and they were not even close to the level of customer service nor going above and beyond to answer our questions.

Your staff has really impressed me and my family because one workout one of them spotted us struggling with the equipment and immediately the came over and asked what was wrong and after we told them the machine was quickly and correctly adjusted to our needs. Having a staff that cares about us and not the money has in fact made it easier to have a more enjoyable workout. They were always ready with a laugh to share and took the time out of their schedule to talk with me and my family about various topics and that has meant the most because it makes us feel that someone does care that we are bettering ourselves. One last example of just how much your staff cares is recently we had a dispute with the billing process and became very upset. From the moment we explained the situation to the front desk employee we were given the highest priority and we worked out the error. I personally was impressed that we were not told that too bad so sad story as most places gyms or not will tell you that they could never had made an error with the billing and so on. Once we figured out the error it was as if we were all relieved including the employees involved as they went ahead and took our problem as if it was there own. I could go on and on for many pages about the wonderful staff you have and the countless experiences we have had in our time here but the bottom line is they are all excellent at what they do and we will be devastated if any were to ever leave.

Besides the supreme staff you have we also enjoy other factors of your gym. In comparison with nearby gyms you offer the most variety of features for the price. The swimming pool is a gold mine in and of it self. The racquet ball courts are phenomenal because they offer us a break from the rut of the treadmills and stationary bikes everyday. The basketball court is fantastic because of its size which allows me and my family more options to have a more effective and fun workout. Having the whole first floor dedicated with weights and weight machines of all types makes it easier to get a complete body workout. We must admit that since joining we have not tried the different classes offered included with our membership but in time and less weight we hope to give them a go.

For the record me and my family have lost over 200 pounds at your gym and must credit your staff and their level of energy and motivation for part of that weight loss. Deciding to go to a gym was the most important and vital decision we could have ever made in our lives. Deciding to join your gym has been priceless as no other gym we have interviewed has shown us the levels of customer service, commitment, friendliness, and overall just employees that are not there just for their paychecks. That to me and my family is so hard to find in today's business world and we are so happy to have found it at the Menifee Valley Athletic Club and it being so close to home that it makes it harder not to attend our daily workouts. Thank you so very much for making the toughest thing we have ever done in our lives that much more easier.

Sincerely,
The Serowik Family

Dear Menifee Valley Athletic Club,

Since its opening, the club has been an amazing addition to the quality of life in Sun City/Menifee. The building itself is one of the most attractive and imposing structures in the area, and the atrium-like quality of the workout spaces are stunning. Best of all is the array of workout equipment from free-weights to the plate loaded to the selectorized in sufficient quantities to minimize waiting times and provide enough alternatives o keep my workouts fresh and effective.

I love the cardio balcony, especially the state-of the-art treadmills with their in built in fans. Running indoors is a lot less boring when I can distract myself by watching the action downstairs in the workout room or by watching a program on the individual flat screen TVs at each cardio station. But my favorite cardio by far is Spinning, and I love that the club is always adding more classes to the schedule so that I can spin most mornings or evenings - or both!

Most clubs advertise friendly and helpful staff, but you really deliver. The warm smiles and friendly greetings from Betsy, Jennifer, Janice and all of your front desk staff get my visit off to a great start every time I come in.

The training staff is super. In June I got a package of 10 hours of training as a birthday present. I chose Niam Tinahui as my trainer, and it has been one of the best things I have ever done for myself. I am now on my second 10 session package, and I hope Niam never leaves, because beg, borrow or steal I intend to find ways to keep paying for training. Niam is the fourth personal trainer I have worked with in my life and the absolute best. While attentive to any physical limitations I might be experiencing, he pushes me to levels of accomplishment I didn't think possible. At 62 I am probably in the best shape of my life. Since I started working with Niam, I can crank out 62 pushups - 1 for each year. He keeps my workouts fresh and most of all FUN. If I could afford it, I would work with him three times a week.

I used to drive 15 miles or more to find a well-equipped gym. Now I role out of bed and I'm there in 5 minutes. I feel like I died and went to heaven. And as it was when it's new building opened a year ago, the club keeps getting better. Thank you, and keep up the good work!

Sincerely,
Jim Begley

Even at 70 years old, MVAC is the place for me. The members and instructors are so encouraging in my pursuits of fitness and weight loss with great examples of people who have made it and are on their way. The classes are filled with strength building, calorie burning, and excellent instruction. The amount and variety of fitness equipment allows me to have needed variation and intensity in my workouts.

The overall attitude is one of expertise, helpfulness and friendliness that makes MVAC the place for working on my health and fitness.
