Esporta Fitness

Terrible Experience at Esporta Fitness – University Location. I’ve been attending this gym for over four months using a guest pass arrangement with my friend, which was approved at registration. However, during my most recent visit to 304 S University Ave, Little Rock, I encountered the most unprofessional and hostile treatment I’ve ever experienced at a gym. For the first time ever, a front desk employee rudely demanded that my guest profile include a photo. While my friend complied without issue, the staff member’s tone was aggressive and disrespectful. My friend and I exchanged glances, quietly acknowledging how rude he was, and that’s when things escalated. As we walked away, he yelled at us to come back, waving his hands in an intimidating manner. While I was simply filling my water bottle, he approached us, threatened to call the police, and claimed, “I’m the manager, I can do whatever I want, and I can kick you out.” This kind of treatment is completely unacceptable. No paying member or guest pass user should be subjected to this kind of harassment and intimidation. Management needs to take action against employees who behave this way. I would not recommend this gym to anyone looking for a professional and welcoming workout environment.

I really enjoy my gym. Everyone keeps to themselves. There's eye contact and the occasional nod that happens after eye contact. The equipment is well-maintained. Every day that I have gone, I have witnessed a staff member cleaning. There are numerous classes that are offered at no extra charge. Even when there is a personal trainer working with a group, they do not take over any part of the gym for a long period of time. The only thing that would make it better for me is for the hours of operation to be extended. I changed from a 24/7 access gym and I still have to remind myself that I can't go whenever it suits me.

I would like to see the wet areas cleaned more often. The glass from the locker rooms leading out to the pool and hot tub. The hot tub seat benches are gross. The rail where it hits the hot tub is black with dirt. The tiles grout it black. And the corners have mold. Same in the pool. The tiles be red brushed once per week to keep clean. Just paying attention to details like the backs of the handicap lift chairs being gross. It’s not hard, just takes effort to create a clean esthetic.

It is not possible that this gym has been closed for days if everything is fine now, this way of working does not seem right to me, I have to cancel my membership, it looked good for Esporta but now I think the opposite, or maybe they are planning to close for a full week . It does not seem fair to me. other gyms are open they should open too.

There is covered parking available, and new equipment!!!... The shopping center here is lovely, and when you enter this multistory gym you’ll find tons of updated equipment. The service is nice, and it’s a quick, and painless workout location. Afterwards you can walk to the nearby sandwich shop Pot Belly to carb load 😉
