Best of Brooklyn: Dodge YMCA
New York Magazine has anointed the Y at Atlantic and Court the best gym in Brooklyn — right around the corner from 110. The Y, which was built as part of Two Trees’ Court House project, surpassed even the new Brooklyn Heights Equinox. The blurb raves:
this nearly brand-new family-friendly facility is more than a place to do cardio and weights. There are community-centric programs for teens and toddlers, infant swim classes in the six-lane pool, and pickup basketball games in the gigantic gym. The fitness center has cardio and strength-training machines plus 96 adult classes a week, from spinning to belly dancing.
Thanks Two Trees! Also check out The Little Gym next door, for kids and parents, with a “parents’ survival night” providing child care on a weekend.

This gym is great if you like working out with teenagers and people with no idea what they are doing. It is always packed and their equipment is usually in a state between broken and functional. Get thee to gold’s gym.

I love this gym — very family friendly but also many young professionals. Good for the general fitness regime and the pool and sauna are great.
