On march 28, 2009; owner, EJ Williams used strong arm selling techniques, intimidation and numerous attempts at inappropriate physical contact with me. I was guided and manipulated there by a contact I did not ever meet on match.com. Mr. Williams obtained my number through this man and made multiple (3) calls to my home under the pretense that he would love to train me. He stated, while I looked good, he could make me look even better. He kept calling. I agreed to meet him at his fitness club. It got uncomfortable when I agreed to free workout the next morning. I filled out sheet with personal home address. He became belligerant when I refused to sign contract. He started yelling at me.....pointing to the fact that I have 3 days to rescind so I shouldnt worry about it. He got very aggresive, loud and angry when I said I would consider signing contract after my free session tomorrow. Things got very uncomfortable. He regrouped and started making passes at me, asking me to go out with him. I left w/ understanding to return next am at 0730 for workout. Next morning I returned at 0900 and told him to stop calling me and bothering me and that I found him to be rude and aggressive. I told him I wanted nothing to do with him or his club. He took me outside and started screaming at me. It was the most strangest experience from a business that I had ever encountered. What makes matters worse, is that I recognized a name on his roster that he was showing me.....while he was trying to convice me to join. I called my friend the following day and found out she had the exact same experience. Unfortunately, she had signed a check over to him for one month's worth of sessions. She stated she quit going after 5 sessions, because he made her feel so uncomfortable. Furthermore, she came into his club from a Match.com contact she was also talking with. This user name was different than the one I had spoken to. I also filed a complaint with Match. com. Extremely unsafe place for any woman to consider working out at. Please do so only at your own risk!! |
