    HFA has literally changed my life. Jake Reddick was my personal trainer and words cannot describe how tremendous he was. I’ve learned true motivation and discipline through exercise. Jake also taught me basic and advanced techniques that I still use and are the anchors to my weekly regimen. I’ve gained over 20 pounds of muscle and sit around 10% body fat after training with Jake and HFA. I always and still stick to my program he specifically created for me and couldn’t be happier with this trainer, the company, the environment, and most importantly, my results.

    My experience with HFA and my trainer Nina has been absolutely amazing! I joined HFA in April and have been training with Nina ever since. Nina has been so wonderful. Last year I had knee surgery and Nina has been so patient and mindful of this. She’s always making sure I’m doing okay during the workouts. Nina is such a helpful and caring trainer. She’s so kind, she really works with her clients to make sure they understand and learn as much as they can. She is one of the sweetest people I have ever met and I couldn’t be happier to have her as my trainer! I’ve always heard such great things about HFA and I’m so glad I chose to join. It has exceeded all of my expectations. The people are all so friendly, the gym is so clean and organized. It’s a great space. Also a big shoutout to the owner Jay! I am super grateful to Jay for recommending my trainer to me during our consultation. He really takes into account who he thinks will be best fit for each person and their needs and goals. He helps make everyone feel super welcomed and comfortable. I highly recommend Hamilton Fitness Academy to everyone. 1000/10!

    I've been a part of HFA for just over a month, and it has been great so far! Jay was super welcoming and provided a ton of information during my assessment. It was really helpful understanding your body mechanics and areas to work on. My trainer Jill has also been fantastic! She is friendly, positive, and motivating. She listens to any feedback you give and adapts to make the workouts work for you. So happy to continue working with her and see some great results long term!

    Been taking classes here since November '22. Chris, my trainer, has done a great job of strengthening my weak areas, and really improving my overall strength. Highly recommended if you lack the motivation to go to a regular gym.

    I’m obsessed with this gym! Total professionals. The initial assessment with Jay and Rhys was so thorough and made me feel I was getting the VIP treatment. Rhys is a very knowledgeable trainer and designs the workouts to exactly what the client is looking to achieve. This team is a community that really does feel like home. Everyone is super friendly and encouraging. I’m enjoying every workout here!

    HFA is a great place to come! I go to Mohawk college and I am currently doing my co-op here and they have shown nothing but love since then. It is a great business and have learned a lot from them.

    HFA is the place to be! Amazing staff with a perfect atmosphere to get you in the training mood. Anyone who walks in the door is instantly greeted with a “Hello” or “What’s up” If you’re looking to get started don’t hesitate to check them out. When ever you decide to go, YOU won’t be disappointed. Tell them Trevor sent you!

    Joining HFA was one of my best decisions I have ever made. First of the facility is really clean and the staff is so supportive and welcoming. Jay the owner is so nice, patient and supportive he listened to my history did a movement assessment which was truly incredible. My Coach was the amazing Jill I can't praise her enough she is so knowledgeable , supper patient and supportive. Jill tailored a plan for me where I could see the progress from day one, I was so insecured at first, but Jill hands down boosted my confidence. She listens to you, gives you the best advise and overall brings out the best in you. I will always be part of HFA family and if you are thinking of starting your fitness journey HFA is the right place to start 🤩

    This place saved my life! I have been fairly active for several years and felt I wasn't making any progress. I joined in the hopes that I would push through a plateau and gain some strength. What I didn't expect was gaining a community of like minded people who push you, celebrate with you and support you even after your contract finishes! HFA helped me gain more strength and self confidence than I could ever have hoped for. I'll be back for sure

    After injuring my back a few months ago, I immediately contacted Jay who was able to build a program for me that allowed some of the pain to go down drastically. Not only is the facility super clean and accommodating to all fitness stories, the staff is also very courteous and friendly. I would recommend Jay for anyone who is looking for a professional/motivational trainer who makes the workout process super enjoyable!

    Joining HFA and having Jay Piasky as my trainer is quite literally the best decision I have made for myself in a very long time. The whole team is so welcoming, friendly and are Very knowledgeable. I hate going to big box gyms, And HFA has made me feel right at home and comfortable. Whether you're just getting into the gym or go everyday. You Will benefit from having a trained professional. Thank you for everything you do on a daily Jay and team

  • 5/5 Teresa F. 1 year ago on Google
    I joined HFA just over 2 months ago and it has been an amazing experience! Jill is my trainer and she has helped me not only lose weight and inches, but has helped me increase my confidence and strength! Jill is knowledgeable, supportive, and motivating. Jill makes sure that no workout is boring by changing up different aspects to keep it interesting and fun, and she also takes into consideration what you like to do too. Jill is also really helpful when it comes to what I am eating, making sure that I eat balanced meals without heavy restrictions. Jill and the rest of the HFA team has made me feel welcomed and accepted - it truly is a judgement-free zone!

    After going into a rut from covid and not being able to get back into the gym, I finally decided to check HFA out, and I'm so happy I did! I had the initial consultation with Jay, the owner. He was super friendly and professional. My trainer was Jake S. and he is super knowledgable and just amazing at what he does. I never thought I had it in me to reach the limits that he helped me reach. Everyone at this gym is super friendly and encouraging. It truly feels like being part of a family! Highly recommend! Thanks HFA and Jake S!

  • 5/5 Shanine C. 1 year ago on Google
    Jill is the most amazing hype girl and personal trainer you could ask for. The amount of time she puts into her clients is the best part. She works with my injuries, makes adjustments where needed and I still feel all the effects of the butt kicking workouts she puts me through. She’s professional and extremely personable. I can’t imagine working out and working as hard as I do without her. I’m down so many inches and have built so much muscle and strength AND gained a lot more confidence and I have HFA and Jill to thank for that. This place is legit the best community and family.

    As someone who has struggled with weight management, particularly during the challenging perimenopausal phase, I found myself seeking solutions that seemed elusive. My journey with Olivia Breen, a dedicated and knowledgeable personal fitness trainer, began approximately a year ago. Frustrated by the stagnation in my weight loss efforts, I approached her seeking guidance and support. From the onset, Olivia exhibited a profound understanding of the intricacies of fitness and nutrition, coupled with a genuine commitment to her clients' well-being. Under her guidance, I embarked on a structured meal plan and exercise regimen tailored to my specific needs and challenges. What sets Olivia apart is her ability to devise comprehensive strategies that seamlessly integrate dietary modifications and physical activity, resulting in a holistic approach to wellness. Her expertise, coupled with her empathetic demeanor, fostered a sense of trust and motivation that proved instrument in my transformation. I am delighted to report that, against the odds posed by perimenopause, I have successfully shed 21 pounds and still going. This achievement stands as a testament to her proficiency as a personal fitness trainer and her unwavering dedication to her clients' success. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Olivia to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and compassionate fitness professional. With Olivia's guidance, achieving your fitness goals becomes not only feasible but also immensely rewarding.

    Great community and safe space to achieve any of your fitness goals. Olivia Breen’s an amazing, encouraging trainer.

  • 5/5 sphr_ i. 3 months ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    The best of the best!! The gym itself is very much like a second home to me despite being kinda new here. The trainers are very engaging and are always making sure that you thrive! You will NOT feel awkward at all. Another thing that REALLY gets me is how clean and organize the entire place is. The machines are well maintained as well as the other equipments. It’s so clean in here! Also, I wanna give a big shoutout to Jake and Brooklyn who always motivates me to continue with my fitness journey and help me boost my confidence. I’ve gained so much confidence and trust in myself because of THEM. I honestly didn’t think I would make it this far had they not motivate me and shared their positive energy with me! So if you’re like me who knows nothing and feels awkward in a gym, HFA is definitely the best place to start! Give it a try and you will NOT regret it. Trust. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    I had the BEST time at gym I've been to a lot of gyms, and this one is by far my favorite. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable about the equipment, and they always have cool events going on. The classes are great too—I love that they're open to all levels of experience. Overall, I would definitely recommend this gym to anyone looking for a fun workout with great energy.

    I recently joined this fitness gym and I have to say, it's been an amazing experience. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and motivated to achieve my fitness goals. The facilities are top-notch, with state-of-the-art equipment and a clean and spacious environment. One of the highlights of my gym experience has been working with Jake, one of the instructors. He is an absolute gem! Not only is he incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, but he also has a positive and encouraging attitude that motivates me to push harder during my workouts. Jake's passion for fitness is evident in every session. He takes the time to understand my goals and customizes my workouts to help me achieve them. He provides clear instructions and guidance, and his feedback is always constructive and helpful. He challenges me to go beyond my limits, but also knows when to push me and when to provide support. Beyond his expertise as a fitness instructor, Jake is also a great guy. He's friendly, approachable, and always willing to answer any questions I have. He creates a supportive and inclusive atmosphere, where everyone feels comfortable and empowered to achieve their best. The gym itself is clean, well-maintained, and has a wide range of equipment and classes to suit all fitness levels and interests. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the facilities are always clean and well-stocked. Overall, I highly recommend this fitness gym, and Jake as a fantastic instructor. If you're looking for a place to achieve your fitness goals in a supportive and motivating environment, this gym is the perfect fit. Thanks to Jake and the rest of the team, I've seen incredible progress in my fitness journey, and I can't wait to continue my workouts at this outstanding gym! Five stars all the way!

    It has been only 3 months and I have improved not only in strength but confidence in my fitness journey with my personal trainer, Ariel Sandmark at HFA! I’ve learned so much from proper form to pushing past my limits that I never thought I could do! I’m so glad I joined Hamilton Fitness Academy and being paired with Ariel who has been my biggest supporter and guide in my fitness journey! :)

    We have been training with Jake Reddick for many years. He is incredibly focused in helping you achieve your personal fitness goal in a safe and effective manner, while adjusting and modifying as needed to you. The facility offers an incredibly tailored program. We also had Jake facilitate a corporate event, which received only positive reviews from the participants. I would highly recommend booking a consultation with HFA!
