I am pleased to announce that the Sports Center at Chelsea Piers has been named one of the Best Gyms in America by Fitness Magazine in this month's issue. Fitness polled fitness pros and active readers across the country to find the "hottest body shops around," and we are thrilled to be included in the Top 20. Stealing the title for "Best Club for Urban Athletes," the Sports Center really is an oasis in the middle of the big city. Member Ann Marie Delaney said in the magazine, "Once you're inside, you forget that you're in the middle of Manhattan. There are glass windows everywhere, so you're always looking at the Hudson River."
Bring a copy of the April issue of Fitness to the Sports Center by April 30 and receive 1 month free when you sign up for a membership. See you around the Best Gym!
