This place needs to get its bathroom situation figured out. Plumbing seems to be out constantly

I called the corporate office for an inquiry but I was forwarded to this location because it was after 5pm. Lawrence was so very helpful over the phone with providing the rates for the family nationwide membership and summer day camp information. He saved me so much time!

Megan is the best yoga instructor in Charlotte! The class sizes at Childress Klein are just right. I prefer a smaller class and this location allows for just that. Megan is an excellent instructor who gives amazing hand on assists and has truly helped me to grow in my practice.
