Incredible staff who all seem to really enjoy working there. The kid care team is outstanding. Great facilities, great classes. Sauna, steam room, cold plunge, sun deck! I was a long-time equinox member back in the city and my standards are high. Im so grateful for South Yuba Club.

There are times the gym is so crowded it becomes unusable. The equipment is also very dirty and old.

A staff member also made a mistake on my pause membership form and, rather than help me figure out a way to fix the issue, another staff member told me there was nothing they could do and I would have to pay for the gym for a month I am unable to use it.

Virtually every piece of equipment I touched (particularly cardio) was in desperate need of maintenance.

I love this place because of the early opening hours and variety of equipment you can use, but it’s really frustrating when a lot of it is failing.

For the price and volume of membership (it gets extremely crowded) I’d really expect better attention to the quality of experience.

Bikes, row ergs, sauna, and locker rooms all had some kind of maintenance need.

I have never had such a frustrating experience. For over a month now, I have been trying to get a membership at this gym. First they were having issues with their phone line, and every time I called to make an appointment, the call was dropped. I left messages asking for my call to be returned, and it never was. Next came problems with the website, which apparently isn’t allowing people to make appointments with Holden and is glitching for classes and swim appointments. I came in person a total of three times, Trying to catch or make an appointment with Holden. After finally being able to make an appointment, I came in only to be treated quite dismissively, never receiving an apology for how hard it was to make an appointment to join, and only to be told Nurses don’t qualify for the first responder discount ( despite being told that we do, and being given the pricing for the discount by Holden himself during one of the many dropped phone calls). I’ll take my business somewhere where they appreciate not only their customers (and other people’s time), but the life-saving care that nurses absolutely do provide on the frontline. What a disappointment from a local business.

Staff members earned them back a star, they’re prompt, clean and polite however I have not even been at the facility 1 month and have already had extremely uncomfortable experiences in the men’s locker room. Member taking my belongings, and resetting my locker code when I go to get my stuff. This is unacceptable and inappropriate! Lastly and probably the worst experience that I and other members have shared is the cruising in the locker room/ taking photos. As a member of the lgbtq community myself, I’m appalled by the behavior of most of my fellow members. My body regardless of how attracted you are, regardless of my “out” status is NOT a community object. Eyes, hands and cameras should stay on one’s own person - ALWAYS! I cancelled today out of my extreme discomfort

Edit: I don’t have a single photo of myself in your locker room nor have I ever spoken to a single one of the associates besides when I confronted them about my phone being taken. The lack of accountability is mind boggling. How awful you’d rather spill lies to cover yourself up than work toward a better gym. And to think I praised the staff in my initial comment! In fact my membership won’t expire till the 10th, even though I found another (better gym) I’ll gladly come in to speak with the associates about your accusation

Club just wants ur $$. This club finds every way to charge you without you realizing. It's dirty and overpriced.

1. Free trial referal can only b activated your friend is with u at first visit.

2. You can only start membership mon-fri 9-5pm. (A time which most customers would be ay their office. You'll have to pay for expensive day passes unless take a day off work to activate ur membership.)

3. Their website is designed, so the option to cancel membership is hidden and confusing. They do not allow you to cancel by phone or in the app.

4. They do not notify you of any upcoming charges you may have forgotten about.

5. When you cancel, you will still pay for the next 30 days

The SYC became my go-to spot during a recent stay in the area. The equipment was in good condition and had most of everything you needed. The place felt quite crowded throughout much of mid-morning but waits for equipment weren’t outrageous. The space for floor workouts is quite cramped and without a good spot to do your thing and stay out of everyone’s way. The main fitness floor could also get pretty noisy with the sound of the classes happening a few feet away. Plenty of cardio equipment and the pool and spa were nice additions.

I left a review several years back after the closing of the Nevada City location and felt it was time to go back in and rejig my review of SYC. I've been a member of SYC for years now and a regular at the Grass Valley location since their opening, until my recent move to Ireland. I had been going every single day for years. The staff are always supremely help and friendly. The environment is always clean and has every piece of equipment one could need and then some to get a well rounded and fun workout routine in.

I was throughly impressed by SYC's use of the time during the Covid-19 lockdown to upgrade their facility and ensure the health and safety of all us members. Prior to C-19 I regularly attended the Barre, Group Power & Fight classes. All of the facilitators and teachers have always been wonderfully encouraging, kind and personable. As well as the many group challenges offered. I value the sense of community wellness and support that SYC has been fostering over the years.

Prior to a bad car accident I was in in in 2019, I regularly saw Ethan, one of their many talented personal trainers. He was a FANTASTIC barbell lifting coach. Gregarious, thoughtful, intelligent, hilarious, detail oriented, a true GEM of a human! The pool was a great rehab tool when I was healing from the accident as I was unable to lift or do intensive cardio/classes.

I seldom used the spa outdoors as it was typically a bit crowded by the evening crowd post workout, but when I did it was such a great tool for decompressing after a long day or hard workout.

The Sauna has to be my ABSOLUTE favorite thing about this gym. Even if I didn't workout every day, I ALWAYS popped into the sauna for sweat. A truly invaluable resource for detoxification, relaxation and general self care, as well as time to connect and chat with my favorite gym community. The night time gym regulars in the sauna always keep the conversation lively!

I'm now back in Ireland and sad there aren't any gyms nearly as amazing as SYC here. I am truly grateful for this lovely wellness hub, all it did for my mental and physical well being over the years and hope it is able to remain open as a community space through these tough times.

It’s easy to see why this place is amazing. The facilities were set up with creativity and by people who understand what a club should foster for its members. But that’s not even the reason I signed up.

The staff is of the highest quality I’ve experienced! I usually come in looking like a bum (after a long day of work :) and the staff treated me like I was a vip member. Even when I was using a week free pass that my friend gave me. I never felt anything but respect and service in all my interactions with them.

Angela is as her name suggests. She’s so warm and welcoming and even remembered my difficult name from the very first day! They need to promote her if they haven’t already. Angela and her team is truly why I signed up and didn’t even question the sign up fee. Well worth it to come to place where people care about you.

See for yourself why this place is perfect for your fitness needs. The equipment and variety of workout styles (they have an outdoor CrossFit section!) is top notch. See you there! :)

I canceled my membership.

The facilities are nice and include many things that other gyms don't have. However, all too often the equipment that we pay the extra expense (SYC is one of the highest monthly rates around, not to mention a hefty sign up fee) is broken down and takes way longer than it should to be repaired.

And for all the money you are paying, the management is very adversarial to members. SYC has a very badly set up lost and found system. They donate everything every Friday, regardless of when the items were left, and do not track those items at all. Because of this, expensive workout clothing that I forgot on a Thursday night were gone the very next day when I tried to get them back. Ridiculous. SYC couldn't even tell me where they had been taken for two days, and refused to make the issue right when I was unable to recover those items (I had to go to the thrift store myself to try to find them). Because they had no way of knowing whether the items were ever in their lost and found (which is of course where they went), they felt they were not responsible and offered no form of reimbursement.

I am not rich and I worked hard to treat myself to some good workout gear, it is such a frustrating loss for me. Shame on SYC. I'll take my money elsewhere.

I like South Yuba Club but the lack of an Ice Machine is mystery to me, especially with such a nice tennis facilities. Filling up water bottles without cold ice keeps me from drinking water while at the facility. I could drink a gallon or more a day if my water was not lukewarm. Most every nice health club in North America provides Ice to their members. It really makes the experience much better having ice cold water in the sauna as well. Lifting weights, yoga, basketball, aerobics, You name it. Water is one of the most important parts of creating and maintaining a healthy lifestyle and you guys are seriously lacking on that front!!!! Their should be cold filterated ice for everyone! The new water dispensers are great but now we just need Ice. We pay enough in members fees to have Ice!!!

Absolutely childish management. After multiple attempts to contact management with no response, I still couldn't get in contact and was left with a $80 bill for a facility that wasn't even open.

The club told me multiple times they could not charge my card and it was not an issue on their end. Each time I spoke with my bank and they told me it actually was an issue on South Yuba Club's end. I eventually just got a new debit card, there was still an issue so I decided to just cancel my membership so I didn't have to deal with it. I went into the membership office on multiple days and waited for hours to be helped until eventually I had to leave. I called multiple times. No one could ever help me. In the end I was never able to get a hold of anyone to formally cancel my membership even after trying for so long and they sent me to collections for not paying my bill (since my automatic payments were not going through). They have Grass Valley monopolized unfortunately, they really are the nicest facilities but the customer service is terrible and they over charge you so much. Not worth it.

This is a good gym and overall I enjoy it. However the sauna has been closed down for going on 3 weeks! This is unacceptable for how much the membership costs. It should only be down for 1 week max! I'm there 3 - 4 days a week during daytime hours and I've never seen anyone working on it. It's still broken and they removed the date to expect it be fixed. A discount should be given for this inconvenience.

Also the drinking fountain was removed from the pool room and has not been replaced for over a month! Not very considerate to swimmers and sauna goers who need to get a drink water. Since there are no drinking fountains in the locker rooms, it's a big hassle to get dressed and go back into the main gym room to get water.

Went for a birthday party and the space was great. From what I was told the price was good for renting. They had a small bounce house that the kids loved and two helpers. They did the pinata on the basketball court. You bring your own decorations, food, and cake. But no clean up for you afterwards. They even let the kids put together little airplanes the mom brought and they threw them around, kids loved it.

This is the best gym in the area. There is plenty of workout equipment for lifting and the staff is friendly enough. The sauna and pool are nice however the pool has a ton of chlorine and the sauna is generally pretty dirty under the benches. If you’re going to swim bring goggles or your vision will be blurry the rest of the day. Also gym etiquette like enforcing the re racking of weights is missing so you often find things racked up with weights you have to unload before starting your lift.
