Ive lived in Coppell most of my life and love the Coppell Aquatic and Recreation Center! I think the people who run it there are great. However, Ive recently been disappointed by their new work-out area: I dont have access to a track (within my understanding) anymore, where I could have done something like farmers walks, or caught my breath between sets by walking a lap. The area surrounding the dumbbells and barbells prior to this was surrounded by mirrors so you could watch your form, and was terrific for getting focused and in the zone. So, I now no longer can watch my form as I do bar squats within the given rack, and the arrangement of things within the freeweights area does not improve the use of space. SO, thats the only reason I could give them a two on facilities. Unlike the other user, Ive taken exercise classes since middle school here. Yoga certainly starts timely, and people tend to be courteous enough to not come in late, let alone the teacher.. Again, the people who work here are good at their job to say the least.

Nice for retired people like me during the day when it is not crowded. The weight room is small and is very crowded after work and on weekends. They have early hours that I would recommend for those who work because it is not quite so busy. The pool is little used, especially the indoor pool during the winter. I was surprised about that. If you like to swim laps you will have little trouble finding a lane, especially during the day. BTW, I strongly recommend the clay track nearby at Andy Brown West. It is very easy on the knees compared to about any other running surface. I also recommend the bike and skate trails surrounding the rec center. The recreation center is more than just the indoor part to me. It is surrounded by places to run, bike and skate outdoors as well.

I really like everybody here but the hours are somewhat limited and the weightlifting area is packed every time I go so I actually stopped going. I like it but they either need to expand or do something else because cost wise its about the same as most of the places around although they were very nice about memberships you can cancel when you want but they got rid of their punchcard system which I was thinking about getting because each time I went it was just too many people

I showed up 5 minutes before class. I left 10 minutes after class was suppose to start and the class still had not begun. Apparently it is ongoing for classes to start late here. I guess you get what you pay for, which is why it is cheaper than other programs around. I do not go to a group exercise class to sit around and wait for the instructor to show up whenever they feel like it, that is why I there is a set time for classes.

Seriously love this gym. Its the perfect size, and they have everything I need when it comes to lifting and group classes. Also one of the trainers there is incredibly enthusiastic and I love it. Four stars because there are hardly and showers or privacy for showers. I dont have any where to put my stuff when I need to shower.

This is a great for young kids (0-12). The lifeguards are very serious and watch the kiddos like a hawk! It isnt a place where you want to go if you want peace and quiet. And often finding a seat in the shade can be tough but, all in all, my son and I have a great time and it is clean.

The aquatic center is an excellent venue. The course offerings are affordable and of high quality. The swim classes are very basic in comparison to some of the other programs around, but the cost is much less too.

Amazing facilities (Gym, indoor and outdoor pool) by the city of coppell for its residents..very good during summer when the outdoor pool is open..

The weight room is average, but at times can be very busy. Weekend hours are pretty short, so it restricts your workout schedule.
