Went to the dr. My friend thought I was pertaining water in my belly. And instead my dr. Worth told me that I'm pregnant. Ahh not sure what to feel about that. But I can at least say that dr. Meyer and dr. Worth are 2 of the best Drs I've had. They are understanding.

There is a good selection of equipment t but not multiples. One gym hog should not be allowed to monopolize a piece of equipment which is the only one of its kid for 20 minutes or more. I need to get in do my work out and get out and this means waiting a long time. Perhaps enforce some sharing rules

Edit for Dec 2024: the indoor playset and gym area for kids has been destroyed to make way for a niche program for adults. Disappointed, disgusted, and no longer a member. Devaluing children in favor of making an extra buck.

This is contributing to the problem of people not being as active as they should; We wonder why they associate moving their body as “work” and avoid going to a gym; We wonder where their need/love for movement and zest for life has gone.

If they’re put into smaller and smaller spaces and told to not explore, not to push limits, not to experiment with what their body is physically capable of, and instead told to just be quiet and play “nicely” then eventually they will do that, only with a phone in their hands.

I love their kid zone area, especially for my 4 year old. She really enjoys the indoor playset with slides and everything!

Purchased a week pass at the front desk today. The older blonde lady that checked us in had a nasty rude attitude. The other woman at the desk definitely noticed how uncomfortable we were and tried to engage which was nice. We still walked in feeling very uncomfortable with how that interaction went. The facility was clean with a limited selection of equipment and mainly senior citizens working out. We’ve tried out Crunch and Greatlife for week passes when we’ve been in town before and definitely prefer both those. Should be common sense that customer service makes a big difference in overall experience but that didn’t seem like a priority here.

I was behind a guy at the Oxbow water fountain and he took a few drinks and each time spit the water back into the fountain. Why he couldn't drink it I do not know. Professional looking man in 50s. I asked him why he was doing this and he said he was “rinsing.” Some workout standard I am unaware of obviously. I reported it to staff and they had no concerns and directed me to the suggestion box. I said maybe some people need a sign like the one at Ellis has to make them aware spitting water out into the fountain is unacceptable. The response I received indicated there were no concerns and a sign was unnecessary. Ellis location seems to have better staff too.

Gym itself is nice and equipment is kept in good condition. Staff is friendly but lazy. Spend most of their time sitting around and talking amongst themselves instead of making sure the gym is kept in order. There doesn’t seem to be any enforcement of the rules. People will sit on equipment for long periods of time on their phones doing no actual work. Also, people will rarely wipe down equipment when they’re done. Hours and days are also strangely limited.

I had a small incident with the front staff, the lady with short hair, glasses, and an adult was rude to me and my husband. He translated for me since my English is not very good (racism) and I disrespected him by saying that if he was frustrated because he was translating for me, there is no tactic to talk to a patient or person. I need a response soon from someone in charge of this facility. Wednesday February 28, 2024 3:20 pm.

Love my gym!!! It is missing a couple of machines I really wish they had.. and I wish my 9 yo was allowed in the gym with me under my supervision because he is very interested in fitness, and it's something we like to do together.. the location i like best is closed on Saturdays, which is such a bummer because Saturday is one of my favorite gym days, and the gym is just better at the Oxbow location... but the tea ellis location has a better pool for kids and a better spa area. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. daycare ladies are wonderful. It's a comfortable judgment free atmosphere. my older kids can go swim while I'm in the gym, which they love. There is so much they have to offer that i haven'teven tapped into yet. I definitely recommend taking a look. Overall, it's a great gym!

I have been a member of the Wellness Center on Ellis Rd for 15 years. Since they claim staffing issues as the excuse to close that location on Sundays our family finally decided to go to this location. Calling this a Wellness Center should be false advertising with no gym and barely the making of a pool. Enough with the lies about staffing. For the size of membership pay what you need to staff both locations for the weekends especially during the school year when those are the only real times to take the family

A relative was snowed in so we decided to go to the wellness to occupy 1-2 hours. After spending over $1,000 the previous year for a family plan with lessons, this still was not enough for a 1 time free guest pass or a discounted rate for a single occurrence as it was $15.

Once again the Sanford Wellness Oxbow facility is closed when it should be open. I have little doubt they will deal with the new snowfall by throwing down some salt down vs. scraping the parking lot off, so we can all wade thru a salty slushy mess when we get out of our vehicles.

Sanford Wellness Center is my everyday gym. It has all the amenities that I need when I go to the gym that most places in town don't have; a lap pool, speed & heavy boxing bags, rings, & platforms for full body lifts.
The team has a great system for new ideas at the gym and delivers feedback on those ideas in a timely manner, too.

I highly recommend this gym if you need a few more amenities than a tiny studio from big name brands can give you.

Haven't been there yet but have talked to quite a few people that have said it is a great place with aquatics which I will benefit from tremendously. It will be part of my therapy for my legs and back. Hoping to correct the issues that I have that are keeping me down and get back to my old self. Gonna take a lot of hard work on my part but I think and believe this is the place for me. Even if it is quite a drive for me just to get there I'm hoping the end result will be I can walk normal and stand up without having to sit so frequently due to back/leg pain.

Sanford is discriminatory to those who are not able to wear masks or other face coverings (or simply choose not to for various reasons). And plans to keep their mask mandate in place until 70% or more of the population is vaccinated? They attempted to use this 70% requirement to convince city council to hold the people of Sioux Falls hostage to a city wide mask mandate extention, and almost succeeded. Thankfully, citizens showed up and helped to end it.

I just want to go to the gym and workout, yet Sanford insists on trying to harass patrons in an attempt to enforce masks and other medical devices/procedures/drugs on patrons, as if bodily autonomy doesn't exist anymore. They have already received alot of backlash for attempting to mandate vaccines, regardless of medical and religious exemptions. Now they are mandating masks and face coverings to walk into the gym. Oh but guess what, you don't have to wear them when you workout because covid miraculously can't be spread in the gym, despite everyone huffing and puffing everywhere. I'm so sick of the coercion and harassment associated with the "theater" of masks, especially for businesses that are operating as public accomodations. I'll be taking my money elsewhere

The wellness center has a lot of equipment and room to workout. Sadly they lose points for unforgiving covid policies. At the beginning of the pandemic they sent a poorly worded email saying that they would put all memberships on hold until reactivated. 5 months later I realized they were still billing me for my membership and asked them to cancel it. They refused to even refund one month to help out with hardship even though it was their poor communication that caused the issue. I will not be returning to the wellness center because they lack compassion for those in hardship and their covid policies don't look out for their members.
