Okay, I have been exercising here for about 6 weeks so I think it is finally fair to review it. I have been to many Goodlife Fitness clubs, and I am currently using 2 locations. This is my favourite, by far.
This is a Women's Only centre and located above a Canadian Super Store.
Pros:
- Staff are friendly
- The club is always clean
- Great selection of classes
- The instructors at said classes are awesome
- The music isn't too loud or repetitive
- Lots of equipment, you never find yourself waiting to use a machine
- Child care (for those who are interested)
- Being above a grocery store makes it very easy to grab something for dinner on the way out.
Cons:
- Some classes get very full. Thursday night Zumba and Sunday morning Body Pump are the worst offenders. Obviously, the classes are awesome, but it is hard being new in such a full class. You have to show up 15 minutes early to set up your Body Pump station in a decent spot.
- During this crazy class time, the change rooms get crazy and lockers are limited. I don't really know what they could do to change this, but I had to mention it.
- The ready made food section in the SuperStore is right at the bottom of the stairs leading up to the gym. After leaving the gym, you get a waft of BBQ chicken or whatever other hot food and it is very tempting to go eat all of your calories back.
