Harbor Athletic Club

Here's what members have to say about Harbor...

"I have been a member at Harbor since September 2007 and have long wished to share with you how fantastic Harbor's KidsCLub has been. The ladies in the Kidsclub have been the friendliest, most dedicated team of child care providers that I have known! I have been pleasantly surprised that I have seen zero turnover of the staff in the last year and a half that we have been coming. It is highly unusual for any position not to experience turnover, so that leads me to believe that the KidsClub staff really love their jobs! This is evident not only in their longevity, but in their demeanor. The staff at Kidscare is always up-beat, they are extremely talented with children and babies, and friendly with parents. Generally, in a letter of this nature, I would single out one particular person who really impressed me. I am in the unusual position of not being able to single out any one person. I honestly feel the entire staff at KidsClub is really doing an exceptional job.

Thank you for providing such outstanding people to care for my children while I exercise. When I was considering signing up at Harbor, the quality of the KidsClub was the single most important factor in my decision to join. When I learned that Wendy Kuehn was the Director of KidsClub I knew my children would be in very capable hands. Wendy is extremely hard working and very dedicated. Since that very first day, l have never once been disappointed. You should be proud that you are able to offer first-class care to your members."- Sincerely, Carla Johnston

"By any measure, Harbor Athletic is the best health club around. I've been a member for more than eight years and I'm still finding new things to do as the variety of what is offered at Harbor seems endless. The facilities are fabulous from weight rooms, pools, cardio machines, yoga and pilates, exercise classes, to the locker rooms and more. There is truly something for everyone. What makes Harbor so unique are it's members and the management. I always feel warmly greeted and greatly valued as a member. The staff are professional and eager to assist the members in every way. I am extremely grateful for all the friends that I've made at Harbor and to have a club that I look forward to going to as often as possible. It has truly become my home away from home."-Ellen Wolman

"I am now within ten pounds of my weight loss goal!!! It is hard to believe how quickly the time has gone by. It still seems like yesterday when I was going through my first weigh in and workout in early June. Although my goal is in sight I am still constantly thinking about how easy it is to fall back into the previous traps of not working out regularly and eating whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted. There is an old saying about the beginning and end of a long journey being the hardest part?" -Pete

"We joined Harbor for the kids swimming lessons and ultimately came to enjoy racquetball, aerobics classes, exercise equipment and the daycare. Swimming lessons have been highly qualified and we have come to enjoy new family time in the pool after. Happy we joined!"-Megan Sisson

"I have been playing racquetball at Harbor since it opened. I have also done aerobics and weights, but I like racquetball best. I‚Äôve made some very good friends through Harbor's racquetball leagues and tournaments, & have also benefited from Julie's lessons. Take it from me–you are not too old to play racquetball. I didn't start playing it until I was 50, and I find it a great sport for exercise; fun and relieving stress."-Reta Harring

"Personal training is really the only way to go! If you want good results, you need a trainer to show you the correct and safe way to use free weights and other training equipment! Jennifer is an excellent trainer! I particularly like the idea that she constantly researches alternative training techniques which may be suitable for each client's capabilities. I feel so much better about myself - more confidence, strength, and ability since starting a personal training program with Jennifer!"-Paige Paar

"The variety of activities available at Harbor Athletic Club has encouraged me to try and succeed in exercise alternatives I would have never considered in the past. In addition, I met three of my closest friends at Harbor!"-Catherine Connor

"I had hip replacement surgery 4 years ago, and my Doctor suggested that I take up water aerobics before surgery to firm up my muscles & bone mass. After my operation, I could hardly wait to get back to my water aerobics class. First, I went to the warm water pool to join the arthritis class for stretching and range of motion & then back to the lap pool for more strenuous workouts. Since the water is so buoyant, I have had no problems with my hip joint and love the workouts with my class mates. The instructors are all great with various routines & music which adds to the enjoyment. Another side benefit is that I have lowered my weight & have been able to maintain. I really miss my water aerobics class when I am not able to get to Harbor, where I have made many new friendships with their wonderful staff & members. My wife Harriet also participates in water aerobics & loves it too."-Alan R. Hyman

"I have really enjoyed and benefited from my years as a member of Harbor, from the warm water pool exercise classes to the summer pleasure of the outdoor pool, to the fun parties during the year. But over all of this is the great sociability and friendliness of staff and members alike. My retirement was a breeze due in a large part to Harbor. Thanks!"-Carol Collins
