SUMMER GUIDE 2018 Welcome to In Motion Fitness. There s a reason we are voted Best Club every year, and a big part of that is our pools! We will not hide the fact that our pools are busy, but there is plenty of time and space for everyone. We have highlighted some areas that we feel will help you with the proper utilization of your club, and more importantly, your pool areas. If you have questions or concerns, please contact the front desk or any manager, and thank you for choosing In Motion Fitness.
