ACAC Fitness and Wellness Center

I can’t really review the gym, but we hosted my son’s 8^th birthday party here this past Sunday. I have nothing but great things to say!
Lauren was our party helper person and was amazing. She’s also who I went through to book our party.
We chose the game party and my son and his friends had a blast in a private bouce house, a room with WiiU, foosball, air hockey, pac man and more. Then there was a
Third room with awesome seating and a row of Xbox Ones. We had even yet another room for our pizza and cakes. The party was 2 hours and the kids did not want to leave!!!
We will be doing the same party next year if it is still available. The cost was extremely affordable and everyone had a blast.

Unless you go at 630 am this is not a gym. After school this is a playground for kids to run around unattended. The gym does nothing to control this and really has no respect for the members who are also paying the freight here.
If you have a choice that’s convenient stay away from here.

Illegally harassed a mother comforting her children in the kid zone — then tried to justify it. After not following her request by alerting her that her kids were crying.

Discrimination and ignorant staff. It would be a shame to give these people money. These folks seem to think that violating the rights of mothers is okay if you do it after the fact. In no universe are the policies in practice here moral or even legal in VA. Disgusting people and disgusting place.

Not kid friendly at all! They harassed a mom for breastfeeding her children that came out of kidzone very upset. The staff is very rude and broke the law by doing this!

Don’t waste your money on this gym. Their childcare is neglectful bordering on harmful to children. On top of that, the staff is totally ignorant of breastfeeding laws. Not a supportive environment for women, mothers, children, or families.

ACAC gyms are the

So this experience was kind of like going to CineBistro to watch a movie and then going to… a regular movie theatre. Once you go to CineBistro with the in-​theatre dinner service, crafty cocktails, and comfy chairs, it ruins your moviegoing experience forever. You become a movie theatre snob, if you will. ACAC has the same effect… specifically the Short Pump location.
I became a member about a year ago and ACAC Short Pump has been good to me ever since. The rooftop bar and pool, the floor to ceiling windows, the café, the sprawling classrooms! All of it is top of the line. I’ve always been curious about the Midlothian location, but when you live in the West End, traveling to that area is like going to Timbuktu. However, I happened to have a meeting in good ol’ Midlo so I packed a gym bag and used it as an opportunity to ch ch check it out.
When I first walked in I noticed how large and in charge the space was. I mean, it really was ginormous. But, it looked more like a giant warehouse with a bunch of machines than a health club, which is what Short Pump looks like. Also– I thought the basketball court inside the space was really cool until folks started playing and it got real loud. Real fast. That would be annoying to me if I’m just minding my business on the treadmill 3 – 4 days a week and I have to hear shoes squeaking and voices echoing. I digress.
The one way that Midlothian beat Short Pump? The pools! They have amazing pools and an outdoor water park. Yes, Short Peezy has the rooftop pool, but these were so much bigger. In this case, bigger does = better.
Another area that gave Midlothian major cool points? I left my favorite earrings on the stationary bike and didn’t realize it until I was already in the car on my way home. I called the front desk and someone had already turned them in! I went to pick them up today and they were safe and sound in an envelope with my name on them.
Thanks, Midlothian!

Great facilities. This place probably caters a bit to the older crowd around town, due primarily to its location. There are tons of open space on the cardio machines (3 different areas). Some good p/​u bball on Saturday, and a great atmosphere. Been going here for the last 6 months, and have yet to meet a staff member who didn’t go out of their way to assist when asked. Edson is very knowledgeable and approachable if you are interested in PT. Recommend this place to anyone. A little pricey, but gotta expect that with all the amenities.

Best gym I have ever been to. The pools are absolutely amazing! I’m a swimmer and I love coming here, knowing that I am going to get a great workout in a great pool. The locker rooms are so beautiful! Clean, modern, and spacious. I’ve never used the actual gym area here, but I look forward to using it this summer when I have no school and more time.

A really great facility. This is where I come to workout when I am visiting Virginia. They have great deals for guests (including free Fridays on the first friday of the month!)
I also had the chance to try some of their classes. I really enjoyed cycling and would highly recommend it.
All in all, a great gym with lots of wonderful renovations that really make it a great place to workout.

ACAC Fitness and Wellness Center is a great gym. ACAC is the 2^nd best gym in the Richmond area (VCU Cary St gym has my top spot).My cousin is a member here, so I workout and play basketball when I’m in the Midlothian area. The workout area is nice and modern. The basketball court is well kept and nice. ACAC Fitness and Wellness Center is really spacious. The gym is never cramped up and over crowded. You can workout comfortably. The pool area is top notch. ACAC is children friendly. ACAC has alot of things for kids to do while you workout. The staff was friendly. Every chance I get to come to ACAC, I take advantage. ACAC Fitness and Wellness Center is a quality gym and a good place to get a membership. I give ACAC Fitness and Wellness Center a 4.5 rating.

I just rejoined this club after taking about a year off due to my high risk pregnancy and then subsequent C section recovery. I love the outdoor pool here and they are redoing their indoor pool (s) right now so they will have a much bigger and more family friendly indoor aquatic center soon. This club has a more upscale, family friendly feel (not like a meat locker gym etc). They have TONS of classes — my personal faves are NIA, spinning, and yoga/​pilates. They have nice new machines and a Healthquest circuit of weight machines where they employees actually set the weights for you so if you’re pressed for time you can just do that quickly. They also have tons of free weights, an indoor track, and basketball court. Love it! It is pricier than other clubs but you get what you pay for in this case. If you want to join I recc asking for Michelle Y in membership — she’s the best person in that area. They also have a huge tennis program.
