    I joined this gym about four months ago and I love it! Right when I first came in for a membership I was greeted with a positive attitude at the front desk then was guided through all the different types of offers they had at the gym. Julian was the one who got me set up, asking me questions about my fitness goals, life style, etc and really getting to know me as his client. All of my questions and concerns were quickly addressed with genuine intentions. With the clean and organized space, friendly and helpful staff, and amazing personal trainers, I've recommended this gym to many of my friends. We've all had a wonderful experience, especially with the help of Julian every time!

    UPDATE: 6 weeks and still no refund. Please do not signed with this franchise, you will regret it. PLEASE BE CAREFUL GIVEN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT TO THIS GYM. THEY WILL DEBIT YOUR ACCOUNT FOR A SERVICE THAT WAS NEVER USE. MANAGER VANESSA WON’T RETURN PHONE CALL OR EMAILS. My husband and I signed a 1 year contract at the Trans Canada location with Ramona on SUNDAY, March 15, 2020. The next day, Monday, March 16, 2020, the gym was closed because of COVID-19 (totally understandable). The problem began on April 13, 2020, when the GYM TRAN CANADA started charging me for their monthly fees (remember 2 accounts, 2 transactions). They debited my account 12 times and only 3 were refunded back to me. I requested to have both accounts cancel on JUNE 16, 2020; manager VANESSA call me to inform that IF I want to cancel both contracts they will charge me penalties. They won’t return your call or email, NO MONEY BACK and this situation has left a really bad taste in my mouth about their service as a business. Stay away from this location. My name is Adriana Ramirez - JULY 8, 2020 – If you want me to remove this review, I want my MONEY BACK and I want to cancel both membership WITHOUT PENALTIES. Once, this is done I will remove my comment.

    This gym is an amazing place to workout. I have been a member here for about a year now and it has always been an amazing experience. They have great equipment, tons of options for working out, updated renovations that include saunas, a positive atmosphere with friendly and helpful staff. I have seen a few negative reviews and I have to say this wasn’t my experience at all. The front desk staff in the mornings and on the weekends have been outstanding! Always going above and beyond for me and others, they actually care to get to know you and be friendly. 5 Star experience for me so I highly recommend you check it out!

    I love this gym! It's a very clean and spacious gym, equipment is all in great shape with plenty to use. It's great having both a co-ed area and a women's only area the way this location has. Joining and getting information was so easy and Jesse Haney was able to answer any questions with complete transparency and in a quick turn around. It has been over a decade since I stepped foot in a gym but I was able able do so confidently and comfortably here. I 100% would recommend this gym to anyone looking.

    ***UPDATE*** THEY STILL CALL/TEXT ME AFTER BEING CLEAR TO HAVE THEM STOP CONTACTING ME! They continually call me after me telling them politely im not interested. Why are they even calling when fitness centers are currently closed due to these unprecedented times? Besides, I wouldn't want to join a health club after the story I read of how this company treated their members after the gym shut down in regards to continuously taking payments during this unprecedented time. Bottom line, when someone tells you to stop calling, stop!

    This is a bit of a rant, but read on. Some of the one star reviews I see on here is truly baffling. This gym and every staff member I have dealt with has been great since I joined. I think some people on here need to grow up and take accountability on the contracts they sign and what they are agreeing to. These past two years have been challenging for everyone and ALL Alberta businesses, nobody had the right answers or a tailor made "pandemic playbook" along the way. GYMVMT has done an excellent job sending e-mails to communicate all changes throughout explaining changes I need to be aware of every step of the way. It is clear not everyone on here reads those, because I have and I have seen nothing but a business dealing with all of the challenges of the pandemic and the sometimes weekly changes to restrictions, better than most businesses I've gone to in the past two years. To the guys on here saying this is an unsafe environment, I was there that day on the weekend everything went down and YOU were the instigators. Yeah if you won't tell the real story, I will as you ruined my and a lot of other members workout that day with the commotion that your actions caused. Exaggerate much? Nobody punched anybody, he shoved you, because after asking you nicely to stop staring at him and following him around, you kept doing it. I am glad to see from your review that you cancelled your memberships because the Manager discussed your actions with you. You will no longer be able to cause problems at the gym. You have stared down and instigated some of the other members I know. You have laughed when you took the plates off the machines they were using when they weren't looking because you thought it was hilarious. Some have quit because of your shameful, ignorant, immature behavior. Seems like that Manager, did EVERYBODY a favor by talking to you about it, which is what a Manager is supposed to do. The people who are complaining on here about the cancellation policies probably just make every excuse they can to go back on the agreements they made when they feel like getting out of them. I was raised that your word should mean something and so far GYMVMT has exceeded my expectations and delivered on everything stated, the way stated. To the full grown adults on here lashing out like children because they don't get their way, do something more productive with your life than pinning your lack of responsibility and follow through on others. To the staff of GYMVMT you rock and the members who know the real deal and have a reasonable level of intelligence and empathy are with you and appreciate what you do to make the club welcoming and enjoyable to attend. Rant over.....

    Staffs are always very friendly and willing to help answer any inquiries I have. Very nice to have a section just for us ladies especially on days where I don't want to be in the general area. I like their system where for members who registered/scheduled for a fitness class through the app, so that it's not overcrowded, and a better way for the instructor to keep track I suppose. I love the access to the sauna room and how it's designed with wood, it's relaxing and everywhere feels clean.

  • 5/5 Norie A. 1 year ago on Google
    I absolutely love this gym! The staff here are genuinely friendly and welcoming. I have been training with Jordan for a couple months now and I am amazed at how much I have progressed in such a little amount of time. I especially appreciate the knowledge he brings to each session and he takes time to explain the importance of proper form and the benefits of each exercise that he specifically selects for your program. He also does Fascial Stretch Therapy which I find super relaxing, helpful in improving my mobility and releasing tension between workouts. I highly recommend Jordan and am so thankful to him for keeping me motivated!

    This is horrible place to go. Don't even sign up there . They will explain different policies and charge you even after you cancel membership and reception staff have zero knowledge. I was member for year . In January I canceled membership but they still charge me 97 dollars bi weekly . I am not supposed to pay a dollar, no one answer properly. I don't know what to do.

    I’ve been a member here for about two years and am confident this will be my gym forever. Huge range of equipment suited for any goal you might have. Kim at the front desk greets just about every regular by name as soon as they come in the door and is overall just a wonderful and kind lady. The staff is great and lots of space so an overcrowded gym at this location isn’t an issue. I’ve tested other gyms but found myself bouncing around, not able to feel comfortable or not enough equipment. This is the gym that completely changed my lifestyle!!

    I was a complete newbie to the gym just a month ago, and it was through a friend's recommendation that I joined, and I’m so glad I did. The space is clean and organized, and the staff, especially Julian, are super helpful and welcoming. Julian was the one who helped me get set up, introduced me to the equipment, and made me feel welcomed in the gym. I've only had great experiences at this gym and its all thanks to the staff!

    One of the cleanest gym in Calgary. Wonderful staff especially Ferdie. My favorite fitness consultant. He helps me out and always gives me good advice on any regimen. He’s so welcoming and I feel at ease whenever I come in.

    A very diverse gym. Equipment for bodybuilding, powerlifting, Crossfit, as well as cardio, and easy machines for beginners. The gym is also spacious, bright, and clean. The personal training department has senior trainers and continued education to help new trainers. I would highly recommend this place to anyone

    This gym is so wonderful and spacious, the fact they have a dedicated women’s side is so incredible. I met with a fitness consultant his name was DJ and he was very informative and we did a few training sessions together. Also, just the entire staff is super nice and polite, they always say hi!! So satisfied with this gym membership 10/10 recommend!

    Ferdie is an amazing fitness consultant! He was so helpful and welcoming to new members such as myself. When I came in, I was eager and comfortable because of Ferdie’s friendliness! I felt at ease because of him. The gym is super clean and the HER side gives privacy for the women. Keep up the awesome service, thanks so much for helping me out!

    I've recently joined this gym and there aren't enough great things I can say about it! From the amount of space, to the women's only section this gym has everything you want and more! I've had the pleasure of having Ellie hope as a trainer and she is so great! She really listens to your concerns and is an amazing motivator! Ellie pushes and challenges you in a kind and helpful way so that you want to be the best version of yourself and get the results you're looking for! Being apart of this gym has kept me fit and healthy and it's definitely one of the best choices I've ever made.

    I've been going to the gym for about a month now and I absolutely love it! I was nervous about joining a gym however the staff are all very friendly and it is a welcoming environment. The gym is always clean no matter what time of day I go. I signed up with a personal trainer and I am very happy with the decision and have already seen progress. Denis knows when to push me and when to take it easy making it an enjoyable experience!

    This gym is a wonderful place to lift. It's a welcoming environment and they have the most polite staff. I've never felt so comfortable in any other gym compared to this one. Kim at the front desk is the sweetest human and actually cares to get to know the people that attend this gym. 10/10 would recommend!

    Julian was the one who signed me up for Gymvmt and right off the bat, he was super kind and genuinely understanding of my gym anxiety. He made it a great, comfortable experience for someone who was new to the gym! I ended up getting Ellie as my trainer and she is amazing. She's consistently pushes me to my full potential and is very encouraging. She always shows that she's proud of you and the results you produce. Ellie has definitely helped me feel way more comfortable and excited to come to the gym!

    Amazing gym! . I’ve only been to the gym a couple of times and each time has been a tremendous experience. I am happy to say that each worker greets you with bright smiles and a positive energy. I was self conscious about going to gym, but now I can say I’m comfortable and confident in doing so. Even though with my short time being there I have learned a lot from both Julian when training with him and Jesse who walked me through everything step by step and made sure I was all set. I can full heartedly say it was a 10/10 experience. Thank you. 😊

    I train with Steve Chambers! He’s so easy to get along with, he’s so funny, and he’s the best trainer I have ever trained with and I have gone through MANY! The staff there are all so sweet and so kind, they always make me feel so welcomed in the club! I feel super safe when working out as their cleaning is always A+! I love this club, my favourite one in the city! :)

    Very nice staff. The assistant manager explained everything as we were going through the paperwork and made it simple and easy. I went in originally to have a look around and see about prices. My brother and his wife attend this gym and kept suggesting I join as well. I went in there on my way home lastnight and liked the place. The staff is very welcoming, nice looking equipment, even a section for just woman if you're a bit shy. Seems like a great fit for me ! My first time going there will be Wednesday. Can't wait !

    I moved from GoodLife to GYMVMT after the lockdowns and bookings started to happen. I can go whenever I want, there's never a waiting list & the girls section is BY FAR, the best I've been to. Incredible gym. **EDIT. I'm NOT a fan of the restrictions put on the fitness centers in Alberta. I think its invasive and uncomfortable having someone forced to stand 6ft. away from me, watching me while I work out, and pretending like it's safer than if I worked out alone. That being said, GYMVMT has been INCREDIBLE. Everyones frustrated and it's comforting knowing that the staff are there for you, not just as staff. I've met some incredible people in the short time I've come here and I highly recommend! (only request - you guys NEED tanning beds) :)

    This place is amazing! I went for a single drop in with my roommate and decided I had to get a membership. Jesse helped me both times I’ve been in so far. The first time offering some words of encouragement and praise for making the effort to better my body, the second time helping me sign up for my membership and making sure I knew exactly what the trainers were going to walk through with me. Incredibly welcoming staff, and the anxiety of working out lifts the second you walk through the doors. 5 stars, and would give more of possible.

    Its always been nice to workout at Trans Canada Location. It provides women ‘s area only which make me comfortable and I also enjoy the workout. I just got a baby and can no longer go for which I requested to terminate my membership for now and an employee named Julian helped me waived the 30 day notice period. Amazing experience with this gym.

    I went into GymMVMT today to check out the facility and see what they had to offer. Right off the bat I was greeted by Kim at the front desk, who immediately made me feel comfortable while giving me a tour. This place has everything one could want in a gym. There are so many different options for training, clean and private shower and locker-room areas, a separate women's space, and tons of group classes and personal trainers. Julian was very friendly and knowledgeable in discussing the various membership options with me clearly, making my decision easy. I'm definitely pleased with my experience today; can't wait for my first personal training session.

    I absolutely love this gym. I just recently had to call due to the new public guidelines and they were extremely helpful with everything. They gave quick and accurate advice on how everything should work, when I can go to back to the gym due to protocol and vaccine mandates, and even allowed me to freeze my account until I’m allowed back, they made the whole experience painless, quick, professional and simple.

    I love this Gym. Best one in the city. The front desk workers are really friendly especially Kim. I have been working out at this gym for a few years now. My personal trainer Eljay is one of the best trainers in Calgary. All the staff are very friendly and are very knowledgeable. I recommend this Gym to any fitness level. The people who workout at the Gym are good people and they are friendly also. Five Stars!

    I joined the gym in the beginning of the year and I absolutely love it! It doesn’t get busy that often but when it does it doesn’t feel overwhelming! The staff are so welcoming and nice! It feels a safe space for me compared to other gyms I have been in the past. I recommend it especially for those who have anxiety when it comes to the gym.

    Just came to the gym today with my sister and my first impression was that everything looked clean, spacious and very comfortable to work out in. One of the employees, Julian, helped us out today for our appointment and got things started for us. He was really helpful, gave out lots of details, and was very enthusiastic. Probably one of the best associates I have talked with. 10/10 on my part for both staff and gym area.

    My favourite gym in this city (been to Goodlife, Fit for Less, and Golds). Great variety of payment tiers for different levels of income/fitness goals with a spacious, welcoming environment. Shout out to Aidan, Erica, and the rest of the staff for making that possible. Even some of the regulars I chat w every now and then- I’ve never been to a commercial gym where I felt this much community. As a woman, I also especially appreciate that more than half the facilities are for women only, as opposed to the shoebox corners w limited equipment other gyms offer for women-only spaces. If you’re hesitant ab getting a membership here I promise it’s worth it

    Been here for a good few years now and it’s a great place to deal with the patrons but also the trainers who work there. I’ve had time to reacquaint myself with some of the trainers I knew prior when I started coming a lot and of the new ones with my hiatus recent hiatus. I would recommend this place to those that want to get an opportunity to be proactive again and strive in keeping a happy lifestyle. Especially if you want to be serious about it or motivated into getting a good schedule going, striving to hire a personal trainer can get you on the right path and pursue goals and commitments you never thought you could reach. Give this place a chance and just check out what the place has to offer. You lose nothing and gain benefits.

    I honestly don’t usually go to the gym but I always wanted to try. Good thing my friend recommended me here to try. So I did sign up and DJ explain me What are the things to do to motivate myself. And I hired a private trainer because I don’t know how what to do. And steffni and she’s really good. I lost a few pounds because she help me a lot to focus and motivate myself. You guys are awesome… definitely 💯 recommended to this gym 👍

    This place charged everyone during their closure from Covid. They don’t enforce wearing any masks or social distancing. They finally offered to put my account on hold when I went to cancel, (not offering that previously) after six months of charging me during Covid and me not using the facility once and after asking what they can do months earlier. Back then, their response was “we can’t do anything.” Then made sure they charged me one more month, even though my contract was expired. I hate places are closing and struggling in the community, but I kind of hope this place goes under, as there a public health risk and nickel and dime people.

    If I could give zero stars I would. A bunch of scam artists for real. They will take your money but don't expect customer service or a refund. Do yourself a favor save yourself money and don't bother going here. I hope they go out of business. They should be ashamed of themselves ripping people off like that. No wonder they changed the name they need new customers to scam. Don't waste your money.

    Spa lady is a scam.. and they tell you lies to make more money, I closed my training with them, but they told me that I had 15 sessions left and that it is okay if I finished them and I wont get charged because I already paid for them. well that was a lie! they continued to charge me! As soon as I called the main office to figure out why. The trainers delete my sessions and change there story and say I have none and that I over used my session, which is a lie!. They deleted my extra sessions so that they could get away with stealing more money from me! Spa lady is a scam and they actually tell you lies to your face to get more money out of you.. I.most definetly would not recommend getting training from this place!

    They are so unprofessional and don’t train their employees properly. I canceled my membership and have the contract to prove it but since the employee didn’t do it properly I have to come again. They are just wasting my time and money at this point. Honestly GoodLife fitness and gold are better if you can go there then please sign up with them.

    I have been going to this gym for about 2 years now and I haven’t had any issues. They have a women’s side only that has plenty of equipment and a steam room. The facility is clean and the equipment work well. I highly recommend this facility to anybody. I have been seeing Ellie for personal training for over a year now and she’s been so great! She really pushes you and is always helping people with their form whether their a client of hers or not. If you have a fitness goal, Ellie will help you reach it :)

    I have been going to this gym for close to eight years and it has always been an enjoyable experience. The staff are friendly and helpful; stay long enough and they greet you by name! As for they facilities, they are impeccably clean and spacious. It's never too crowded, at the times I go. I strongly recommend giving them a try.

    Sign up was super easy. Julian got the contract ready super fast. The female staff is super friendly so far. Gym is clean, easy to find a wipe if one container is out. Cleaning staff was working in the evening while the gym was open, great to see! I'd only complain about the app, no idea how to get access but that's not a point reduction on the facility.

    I came in with a complicated issue regarding my account/billing. I was greeted by Kim and she was amazing - even though is was a long and confusing process, she walked me through it with ease and was very patient and kind. I had been putting off coming in to resolve my issue as I was worried about how much time it would take, but Kim made the whole process smooth and was very friendly throughout. Very grateful for her time, kindness and overall outstanding customer service. :-) I now am looking forward to my 5:30am sessions as I know i’ll be seeing her! 😁

    GYMVMT has been a phenomenal gym to go to! It's updated equipment and great fitness classes are nothing in comparison to the friendly and approachable staff that work there. The trainers and fitness consultants (specifically Ramona N) make the place feel so safe and you really feel like you are part of a fitness family! I have only had positive experiences and I look forward to my workout everyday knowing that I'm going to be greeted and supported by amazing people!

My mother came to the gym to exercise tonight, greeted by Freddie with a hand up telling her to give him a minute as he proceeded to talk on the phone and make her wait 10mins (using company time to discuss a priv matter about tiles ). When he finished she clearly showed him her vaccine status that she was fully vaccinated and he didn’t accept her because she got her second vaccine last week. It clearly states on the Alberta website that anyone who has been fully vaccinated will be accepted and the 14 day rule for second dose is only applicable on November 15. She was being extremely rude extremely disrespectful and I really did not appreciate seeing him treat her that way, as I know he would never treat his own mother that way . My mother is a hard-working professional and has very limited free time, and she chooses to spend a portion of her free time to go to the gym, and Freddie spent over 30 minutes of her time off, fighting and arguing over a matter that he should’ve been aware of, after SHE showed him the rules and regulations off the Alberta website, he attempted to CONTINUE arguing with her and insisting that he wouldn’t let her in because she was “rude”, as if he wasn’t being extremely rude himself and ignorant to rules that he should know especially working in a front desk where he has to deal with customers every day. In all the five years that I have been coming here I have never witnessed such atrocious behaviour from any employee in my life, everyone who I’ve encountered has been extremely friendly and understanding, but to see this sort of behaviour for an employee is absolutely unacceptable, and to see that this is who you have as the face and representative of this club is an absolute embarrassment, especially with the way he treated someone who has been such a long time customer.

    Julian is Amazing!! He is an excellent personal trainer and the gym itself provides many benefits. If you are considering joining, don’t hesitate it will be worth the investment.

    I just read some reviews about the new gym, and people are complaining about how it is co-ed now instead of women only; and how contract is unfair, and that they weren't told about certain things. 1) At the time when the "merge" started I was at WorldHealth Sunridge. Information about the renovation and merge was given to us with plenty of time to think about if we want to continue with membership at the new location. I'm sure same was done at Spa Lady. 2) At the TransCanada facility there is still a place for "Women only", with equipment. True, it is somewhat smaller than before but only because renovations are happening. When the reno is done, the space will be twice as big, separate space for us co-ed people and women only. 3) When one signs up for a membership with more favourable terms if it's for a longer term, yes, there will be a cancellation fee. Think of your phone contract. Cheaper phone, longer contract, if you cancel you pay for the phone. When you sign up for a contract READ THE FINE PRINT! Not knowing about it because you didn't read it is no excuse. 4) I was a member at Spa Lady and it wasn't better then. Nobody ever asked if you wanted help, unless you signed up for training sessions. Most of the time it was almost empty, hardly any of the machines were used, and I went there after work, around 4 pm. Yes, it is, obviously, more crowded because of the higher membership, but it is also more fun. And there is a floor plan posted on the wall about what the new gym will be like, you can ask the trainers about it and they will let you know what the next step will be with the reno. 5) Trainers now, male or female much more helpful, whether you work out with them or on your own but need some help. They are always ready to help, they show the movements or explain how to do it correctly. Yes, I like this new gym, looking forward to the newer, renovated gym. Trainers are great, friendly, helpful, always upbeat.

    The changes made to this gym are really amazing. Its so much more modern and vibrant looking. This gym went through a huge change and I watched it go through the whole thing. Such a change can't be easy on everyone who works there but they are always smiling and quick to greet me when I come in. They seem to have done the best they can to adapt as well. I was lucky enough to train with Densa before covid hit and he was great. Ramona helped me with all my questions regarding trainers and options for me at the gym and later helped me revise some of my payments due to covid. She was quick with responses and knew what she was doing. Construction has been a bit lengthy but thats no fault of the gym and in my opinion it is all worth it. I love all the areas now and the staff make it feel like a fun safe place.

    I've been with World Health for quite some time until the two gyms merged. I admit, it's a little bit crowded on the training area but you can still make space since everyone is nice enough to share. World Health and Spa Lady (GYMVMT) is there to help and guide you. I have training sessions there but even when I'm just working out by myself or with my sister, we can still ask the other trainers that are available since they're so approachable and sometimes they'd even come to you to teach you the proper technique on how to do the program to avoid injuries and to make sure you are working the correct muscles. They give out some pro tips for free! I can't wait to see the whole gym after the renovations! Special thanks to my trainer Eljay Lopez and his gang for helping me and my sister a lot!

    They are very bad in passing information. I will say this place just like to take money. They sign you up for contract in the training and provide some information which is not even true. Later you find out wrong information. Recent incident they change from world health to gymvmt and never mention me my training will get expired before I freeze my account once I came back I find out my training was expired and they renew some and Tina training manager tell you over the phone wrong information about date expiry and write note in your account. Lot of lies. I been with world health almost 5 years. I had lot of issues with billing even where it get sometime double charge. Tina fitness manager is super disorganized and tell that she is an organized manager. It is surprising that she lies front of your face no one is there to deal with it.

    Let me make something very clear, this location has excellent professionals who know what they are doing and are always happy to help. The staff is very friendly and the personal trainers are really dedicated. The only reason this is not a 5 out of 5, is because the men's locker room is uncomfortably small and the lockers are barely big enough to fit your gym bag, while the shower stalls are tight. Please know that they are currently working on this, once the locker room situation is dealt with I will be glad to change my review.

    Was a member of spa lady and ended up freezing my membership because of my frustrations with the gym - no one would pick up when I called, the management was not helpful at all, I kept getting different answers from different people. Was curious about the upgrade so I renewed my membership and I'm so glad I did! The trainers and management are so much more helpful and nicer than before. I really hope they keep this up, it's been a great experience so far

    Loved it when it was Spalady. It was great, all the personal trainer classes, zumba and yoga. I loved exercising then. Left this place after it changed to Gymvmt.

  • 5/5 Kyle A. 4 years ago on Google
    It's a great gym to go to, it is awesome what they have done so far with the renovations and adding the two gyms together. There is way more space then the old gym and there will be even more once all the renovations are done. Excited to see the finished product and to have all the equipment out of storage and set up, including any new additions. The staff is great, they have some of the best trainers in the city. They are very knowledgeable and always willing to help out if you have any questions or need a spot. Great gym and I'm excited for what the future holds.

  • 2/5 Rebecca B. 4 years ago on Google
    Only two stars due to the women's only section, Lacking in equipment and space. Training sessions seem to take over many areas and make it impossible to use the equipment they set up in front of. Cannot complete most work out routines due to lack of basic machines (sitting leg press for example). This location is easy for me to get to after work, which is why I go, I much prefer the Canyon Meadows location.

  • 2/5 Randy L. 1 year ago on Google
    The facility is great with an abundance of machines. That’s great and no problems with location. However what made my experience a 2 star was the personal training. I am currently meeting with my personal trainer and she won’t listen to me. I tell her everything about my fitness goals but she goes off on a tangent. She says that she would only help me build muscle mass yet not really explaining why that is. My main priority for my fitness is to be a long distance runner up to 50km distances. What I don’t appreciate is her not explaining the importance of these exercises and how it could benefit my running technique. I would basically do all these exercises without much knowledge neither do I feel motivated attending my appointments. She fails to meet my expectations of what personal trainers are hired for. I am not satisfied since I am committed to a contract with her. If I am obligated to pay GYMVMT anything. I want expertise specifically to my fitness goals. I am deciding to cancel and never going back here.

    This gym in great! I can’t wait to see what it’s going to look like when the construction is done and it gets even bigger then it already is! The atmosphere is wonderful! It feel like a family the second you walk in the door! If you’re stuck in anything or you need help at all any one of the trainers will be there in a second to help you out! You never get any of those intimidating vibes or that awful feeling of “ugh I’m going to the gym today!” The atmosphere is so positive and uplifting the classes always sound like so much fun! And as a woman who is intimidated and was super nervous about going to the gym and working out it’s really nice that they have private and separate areas for woman to work out in and when construction is done a whole separate side where woman will be able to work out is amazing. I’m really looking forward to it. The best part is that this gym is super clean and extremely well taken care of. There is so much equipment you rarely ever have to wait for a machine to get your work out in which helps your workout go by so fast which is so nice!! The bathrooms could use a little bit of clean up work but otherwise gymvmt in trans Canada is a great place to work out. I’m excited for the things to come and a CrossFit square at the gym is going to be a great addition. The trainers put in the effort and do great work and they make you feel like you matter which is really nice. If you’re looking for some of the best Roxanne, Shayne, and Tyna are the best. They will support you and be there for you 100% of the way. I recommend this gym to anyone!

    Steve Chambers is a great trainer and motivator. I’ve been training with him since last 3 years and his training has made a huge impact on my life. Great results have been since then.

  • 4/5 Thomas W. 3 years ago on Google
    May get up to 5 star, depending on opening after covid. Maybe the owner should do a bit more then just replying to reviews and actually pay branch's a visit. I will be maybe cancelling my membership depending on the next year. The staff care, but the owner very clearly does not. The best thing about this gym is, the staff. I train with Densa Chan personally, and he is extremely Knowledgeable! With his training programs, and nutrional coaching. I have gotten in the best shape of my life, you obviously gotta put the effort in yourself, but the results from sticking to his programs are evident. He has helped me set new personal best lifts. I will train with Densa for the rest of my life. Steve Chamber is also very knowledgeable, skilled personal trainer, I have trained with him here and there over the years, you can't go wrong with either of these two. Any of the trainers at this gym are will do right by you!! It was a great gym at sunridge, it has been a turbulent couple years, but now that the Reno's are finishing, and with restrictions lifting this gym should really come together now. We shall see. Be sure to read all the fine print on membership dues, so you don't get any unexpected payments. Like All big gyms, the have monthly dues/fees, make sure you READ what you signing up for, whether it's basic access, multi club or training with a Personal Trainer, be sure to ask questions when signing up. To avoid any confusion down the road. I am not a fan that the men have no access to the studio or basketball court they used to have at Sundridge location.

    Scammers. Said account was on hold yet still charged and refused to refund. To the “Owner”, do NOT respond saying you’d like to know more and make it right as I spent hours with arrogant customer service staff who did not help. Will report to police. Go anywhere else.
