Run from this place! There are more gym around here. The manager hates gays and most other races. He is out to rip off all, he will bully you and then get you to stop going to the gym. I worked for him!

My (personal) experience with that club is quite positive. As I had already learned how fitness clubs sell memberships I was not astonished to get an offer for a one year membership where I would save the admission fee and so on. But I declared that I just would like have a day pass because I was only for a few days in Town. The consultand, a really nice guy from Tunis was not insistent (otherwise I would just have be gone) and even did let me have a free training at that day. OK, the dressing room was just under reconstruction and some of the machines pretty much used, but there are different big halls with high ceilings and a big choice of all kind of machines modern cardio trainers, in total it is a great space so that I am decided to join the club if I come in that quarter of Toronto for a longer period of time. I recommend this place. Was this review helpful? Yes | No | Report as Spam |

Okay, so the sales pitch is a bit of a pain, but what fitness club doesn't have a seriously bad sales pitch? Its how they make their money, people. Think. As far as the club: if you're serious about lifting (and if you're not, you should be: stop wasting your time!), the following is true: 1. They have 2 deadlift platforms 2. They have 2 squat racks 3. They have a power rack 4. The 'bells only go up to 90s 5. They have a decent selection of cardio equipment. 6. There's a decent (maybe 10%) amount of people who actually have a clue who train there. 7. Personal trainers, regardless of where you are, are completely worthless, and here is no exception. The end. I recommend this place. Was this review helpful? Yes | No | Report as Spam |

The owner/manager is a top-rated asshole, very unreasonable, and top-ranking sleaze ball. This is the only top rating I gave to this club, its assholeness and sleaziness reeks. It's like dealing with a used car salesmen. Here is how it works, the "consultants" will try to sell you different plans (they have ready-to-use script, I was too stupid to notice it at first). Then they will say "today is your lucky day, we got a special deal for you". The fact is everyday is a special deal especially when they want to sign up new clients. But they won't admit it of course, and will try their utmost to sell you the plan on THAT SAME DAY you visit!!! Be careful when selecting plan, especially when you must sign a contract. My "consultant" said whenever we want to cancel membership, I would be able to negotiate with the manager. This is NOT TRUE!!! You are responsible for paying the whole 1-year. When I talked to the "consultant" about it, he pretended not to recall what he said. Also, as mentioned by previous reviewers, the 1-hour appointment with a fitness specialist is an upsell, and again they will try to do their very utmost to sell you expensive personal training program even when you are very healthy. I just had a checkup with my personal doctor and there was nothing wrong with me. But at this fitness club, they'll tell you stories to instill fear of ill-health, so you sign up with personal trainers. CONCLUSION: stay away from this sleazy place!!! for your own good!!!
