The Wellness Center provides a broad range of health education, fitness and exercise programs to help you and your family maintain a healthy life-style
I've held several gym memberships over the years. And my experience @ The Wellness Center is in short, awesome! From the Cross Training, Cycling, Rowing and Yoga classes to the cardio/weight rooms and the lap pool, the Wellness Center provides an exceptional value in Fredericksburg. The Staff is friendly, helpful. and well trained in not only the aspects of Personal Training and Physical Therapy but also in First Aid and CPR. Everytime I walk in the front door I feel welcomed and safe!

I have enjoyed my membership at the Wellness Center so much because, while the class instructors are positive, friendly and helpful, I would never work myself as hard as they work me! With their guidance, I have attained what I feel to be the best finess level of my life.

I am a winter Texan (summer Minnesotan) and have enjoyed each and every workout at the Wellness Center since we arrive in Nov. The staff is fabulous!!! From the front desk (helpful and friendly) to the exercise class instructors (knowledgeable and motivating and professional). Leah's Yoga classes on Tues and Thurs morning are the best I've ever taken. Joe's 7:30 a.m. class on MWF is as much fun as it is hard work. The recent improvements of the facility's flooring is terrific!! I am so grateful to have chosen the Wellness Center for my MTWTF workouts. It is really a gem of a place in our lovely community. Thanks!
Pros: Friendly Staff, Clean, experienced instructors!, wide variety of machines and classes

Thank you for sharing your workout experience. We do have a great group of energetic fitness guru's that are dedicated to making you hurt. But it's all worth the pain. Thanks again.

I would like to thank Diane and Lindsey in particular for taking a special interest in my situation, health, and goals. Actually, they do this for everyone. After I was diagnosed with severe Rheumatoid Arthritis, I became very depressed and was almost bedridden due to pain. After doctors suggested water therapy, I joined the Wellness Center. I must admit , I was skeptical. However, due to the wonderful water exercise programs (aerobics, Zumba, and arthritis therapy) in conjunction with the professionalism, knowledge and caring of the staff, especially Diane and Lindsey, I am a new person!
Pros: Friendly Staff, Clean

I use the swimming pool at the Wellness Center. I especially love the ramp (instead of steps) for entering and exiting the pool. Actually, both swim and therapy pools have ramps. The facility is clean and well kept. The Staff is courteous and very helpful; I have never seen a frown on a Staff member-they seem to love their job, which says a lot about the organization as a whole. The rates are affordable.
Pros: Friendly Staff, Clean

The only negative experience is the choice of TV programs. Fox News runs continually. Regardless of my political affilation, Fox News is so negative it counters the good effect of working out. Plus, there are mostly older guys that come in and want the TV's to be on all sports (or Fox) while they sit on the cycles barely moving and talk negatively about our president and gov. Not sure why they don't just go to DQ because they are not working out. Maybe HCM should open a room just for these guys who want to complain and talk and not work out. It would help open up some of the machines and have a much better atmosphere. The staff is great.
Pros: Friendly Staff, Clean

The Wellness Center golf program is exceptional and a big city luxury so nice to have in our small town. Whether indoors or out the program provides the perfect professional coach. The style, patience, experience and talent of the Professional makes the experience ideal for adults or children--beginners or experts alike. And with his indoor setup at the Wellness Center, the teaching professional staff has a whole new set of tools and measures and metrics to try to improve my game and my knowledge and appreciation for the game even further. I anxiously await the day my young children can begin to benefit from this program and this Professiional instructor and coach--someone I wish would have been there to teach me as a child. I have already made our school aware of theWellness Center golf programs and expect many of our children will have that advantage to a start in golf the right way! I couldnt be any more pleased with the program--and it just keeps getting better! The quality and consistency of the program and professional instructor only trend to the positive and continue to grow with me.
Pros: Friendly Staff, Clean, fantastic service mentality

In the past 6 months I have been very disappointed in the friendliness of the Wellness Center Staff ( since the front desk staff has been rearranged). It is moslty the younger staff ( highschool/ college) when you check in at the desk or at the Kids day camp at the park. I rarely recieve a hello or a smile. Often you are completely ignored. Today I took my child for the first time to the kids camp and introduced my daughter to the check in staff- the girl did not reciprocate and introduce herself to me or my child. She stayed seated and did not offer to orient my daughter to where things needed to go. My daughter ( 8 years old) was obviously nervous not knowing anyone and she did not offer to introduce herself or my daughter to any of the other staff or kids around. I feel that a friendlier, respectful approach would make for happier costumers.
Pros: Clean
Cons: friendliness

I have had many massages over the years but this was probably the best massage I have ever had. Just the right amount of pressure and she addressed my problem areas which were my neck and shoulders. I didn't want my massage to be over! I definitely will be returning often as I feel massage therapy is more health giving than absolute luxury.

I have been exercising at the Wellness Center for about 15 years, I think. I love having the variety of classes, the coaches, the accountability! BEST of all these classes through the years is the ZUMBA class that started in November. Incredibly fun with a super personable coach. Unfortunately she had to quit teaching for now due to having to drive from Mason... but I understand the Wellness Center is finding a replacement coach for the fall. It would be really fantastic if they could talk the original teacher back into coming, perhaps by asking her to teach a weights class back-to-back with zumba like she does in Mason. I visited there once and loved it! At any rate, I am truly looking forward to zumba classes starting up again soon!
Pros: Friendly Staff, Clean
Cons: price seems high compared to other facilities

first time to take a Zumba class and it was fun - maybe after a few times going i will actually learn the moves. Thought maybe there could have been a couple more minutes between each zumba excercise/song, but other than that - i look forward to going to the next one
