I love the gym I joined, but one thing bugs me.

You didn't sign on full year contract. That is one of the biggest problems with many gyms that members don't realize until its too late - classes are at inconvenient times for YOUR schedule. This hurts particularly if those classes were one major reason you joined.

You can try asking management to offer a favored class on a trial basis at a time convenient for you as long as you can get a minimum number of people interested. I went to a gym that had a very active group that met at 5:30 am during the work week. They offered a number of early morning classes because of membership requests.
