Testimonials
SAIL Fitness has been a great class, I'm half way through the class and I feel better about my balance, and I enjoy the social aspect of the group as well. Thanks for offering the SAIL class.
Erin's Yoga FLOW class is easy to follow for any level. It's a peaceful way to wind down and a great addition to the other fitness classes at Broadwater Hot Springs.
Amazing place and great staff!
The gym is fully equipped for everything you need, and the sauna and pools are fantastic for recovery or just to relax and enjoy the day (or night). They have a full bar and restaurant that serves great food and a very friendly atmosphere. One of the best places in Helena.
Beautiful new yoga room with the view overlooks the hot springs pools. The room has a peaceful vibe!
