How much does it cost to become a member?

Because membership costs at Fitness Connection vary depending on several factors, it is strongly recommended that anyone interested in The Center, or any of its programs, stop in and take a free tour of our facilities. You can do this at any time. Our exercise staff will be glad to review all our programs, show you all our exercise equipment and explain our various membership rates. On average, dues break down to about a $1.50 a day. Membership range lengths are one, three, six and twelve months. Often many local organizations and employers participate in promoting healthy lifestyles by offering their members/employees discounted rates and/or a reimbursement for membership dues.

Many insurance companies are now offering a reimbursement to their members for participating in a structured fitness program. Aetna, Amerihealth, Blue Cross/Blue Shield and US Healthcare are a few who offer such incentives. In addition, Fitness Connection offers discounted rates to members covered by certain healthcare carriers. It is best to contact your healthcare representative about the benefits in which you entitled.

Please check out our Center Facilities page. Basically, a fitness membership entitles you to unlimited use of all our facilities and equipment except for our tennis court. The Center often runs various wellness programs, such as CPR, Tai Chi and Yoga. These courses and seminars are available at discounted rates to all our members. Again, stop in for a free tour and take a look for yourself!

Definitely. All our members are entitled to first have a physical assessment with our exercise specialists who will review your health history and exercise goals and then run through a series of very basic exercise test, including checking your heart rate, blood pressure, body fat, strength and flexibility. Next, they will set you up on an exercise program geared to help you reach your fitness goals.

All our exercise specialists are required to have attained a Bachelor’s Degree in an exercise related field. Many also attain additional certifications pertinent to fitness. Each of our Group Exercise instructors have also been certified.
