Ballard Health club is a popular gym located in downtown Ballard. The classes are quite popular and I have been dropping in for some and really like them. They also offer childcare at a great rate and the wman that watched the kids is experienced and fantastic. The yago and pilates teachers are also some of the best. Memberships are also quite fair. On the downside this place is super hot and humid in summer, unfortunately no a/c in here. Parking is also very limited in their lot. The trainer/manager I spoke with, she was rather rude and condescending towards me although I have heard good things about some other trainers there especially the one that teaches yoga. Probably better in the winter due to the heat. Drop ins are $8 so try for yourself with no sign up cost.
Pros: classes, childcare
Cons: trainers, parking, ventilation
