Life Time Fitness just bought out Lifestyle Family Fitness several locations around Columbus including one in the Polaris area. As of now, it is scheduled to close permanently by the end of November.
Life Time Fitness is currently offering membership transfer options to those members effected by the closures throughout the end of the month. There will be no increase in membership fees or any upfront fee required during this transition.
I’ve contacted a member at the Lifestyle Family Fitness in Polaris and asked them their opinion on the closing so I will be updating this post soon.
[Update]
It may come to a surprise for many longtime Lifestyle Family Fitness members as they have decided to close many of their locations in Columbus, including the one in Polaris.
“To be honest, I’m upset that this happend so suddenly. I’ve been at this gym for years now and I’ve even met a few friends here. It has become kind of a daily routine for us to meet here and catch up, while staying healthy at the same time. I’m also sad I won’t be seeing the wonderful employees here as well. They were always so welcoming and helpful to everyone,” says long time Lifestyle member, Alex Dixon.
Polaris Lifestyle Family Fitness members are now forced to either continue their contract at other locations or even begin a whole new gym membership at other gyms located around the Polaris area. Some of these gym includes the popular Urban Active Fitness Club, Cardinal Fitness, and Metro Fitness.
“I probably will have to go to some gyms around the area. I’m not willing to drive down to the other locations that are still open simply because it is not convenient for me anymore.”
