1 / 3St. James Recreation Center
đ The Bronx, NY
Popular Bronx recreation center offering swimming pools, fitness classes including cycling and abs, plus Spanish lessons and art classes. Staff praised for being welcoming and knowledgeable.
The staff at this facility are all so very kind and caring. The classes held at this facility, such as the cycling, abs, stretch, Spanish class, etc., are all worth attending. I have lost 40 pounds within my seven months of attending this gym. I must say that I could not have done it alone, and I thank the staff and other attending members for all the support they have shown or shall I say WE SHOW ONE ANOTHER ON A DAILY BASIS. I look forward every day to the classes and seeing the kind and caring people who come there and those who work there. đ§đž
