WOW, I was so surprised to see Eau Claire YMCA got better reviews than Talisman! I am not sure how that happened but Talisman is one of the best fitness facilities in Calgary (if not the best in my opinion) Just the pool complex alone sets it apart from the rest... there are about 5 of them, I don't know any other gym in the city that has that. The class schedule has lot of options and they are all included with the membership. The equipment is replaced often, I have been a member for 3 years and I constantly see new machines being installed or the old ones being replaced.
The staff is amazing, super friendly and helpful and the whole vibe of the gym is great. Working out at Talisman is super motivating!! I don't know if I would go to anywhere else
