GoodLife Fitness Oakville South Oakville Centre Women's Only

Negative experience: Abysmal experience with this gym! They took my driver's license to fill in my details but misspelled my name, so when I told them my email address was my first/last name, they misspelled my email address. I asked them for a copy of the Agreement before signing up, but they told me they couldn't show me the full Agreement, and that it would be sent to me by email. Of course, I never got it by email. I had by then let them know that I'd need to make payments via CC because of a pending fraud issue with my banking (which is locked--nothing can be removed from my account). They told me I'd have to pay when I go in as there's no way to pay by CC directly, and they'd need to keep my banking on file anyway, even if I didn't intend to pay that way. I thought that would be no problem as I'd just pay going in or by phone... They could have let me know that for each failed banking transaction there's a $25 charge and no way to pay by phone or online. Just an awful experience overall, not to mention this gym hasn't been updated in what looks like decades. The safety clips on the treadmills are all broken. Just an accident waiting to happen!

Fantastic experience: GoodLife Fitness Oakville South Oakville Centre, truly made my gym journey AMAZING! Sabrina Shekhani was my Personal Trainer, and she made my gym experience more comfortable. I always looked forward to going to the gym with Sabrina, because she understood my fitness goals, and tailored many different routines to meet them. She not only helped me reach my goals, but she also motivated me to go above and beyond what I thought was possible. Her unique approach and attention to detail have made a significant difference! She is an excellent mentor, and I cannot wait to return for additional long-term sessions! Thank you, Sabrina and Goodlife Fitness, for starting my gym experience!

Fantastic experience: The staff and management are excellent the gym is always kept clean they make you feel like family

Fantastic experience: Loved how it wasn't too busy!

Fantastic experience: For the past 6 months my personal trainer Sabrina, helped me achieve my goals and set me up for further success. Sabrina has been able to work with my old shoulder injury to enable me to gain my mobility back, get stronger, and feel amazing. Thank you Sabrina for being a wonderful mentor, and teacher in helping me learn how to use the machines, weights etc. also how to challenge myself safely. My journey has just begun and it's fun. Everyone working here is friendly and helpful. A perfect location for all women of any age!!

Fantastic experience: Clean and safe location, entry after hours are only by FOB.

Fantastic experience: So nice to have the gym there. I love all the classes. All the coaches for the group classes are very professional and knowledgeable. Worth to go to the classes and then you can figure it out which one can help you. All the people working there are friendly.

Fantastic experience: Never felt so safe at a gym before. Everyone is so kind, staff included, and it creates such a welcoming space. Plus, everyone actually wipes the equipment down after they're done with it! Safe, clean, friendly, 10/10

Fantastic experience: Love this place always clean and tidy

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and awesome classes and I love it. lovely staff ❤️glad to see classes during the day. I am very happy

Fantastic experience: I love this place especially the Manager . Very clean and well maintained. All Staff are very friendly!

Fantastic experience: I joined GoodLife Gym in May 2023 and was fortunate enough to start working with Sara, an exceptional trainer who guided me through an intense fitness regimen. With her help, I alternated between full upper and lower body workouts, and I quickly began to feel stronger and more capable. Initially, the soreness was a testament to the hard work, but by the second and third weeks, I was amazed by my improvement. In the fourth week, I discovered I was pregnant. As a first-time mother-to-be, I was uncertain about continuing my exercise routine. However, Sara provided reassurance and expertise, highlighting the benefits of exercising during pregnancy for both me and my baby. She meticulously modified my training to accommodate my changing needs, ensuring a safe and effective workout experience. Sara’s flexibility and support were invaluable, especially when I had to miss sessions due to morning sickness. Her tailored approach allowed me to maintain my fitness journey until the eighth month of pregnancy. My goal was to stay as healthy and fit as possible, aiming for a smooth vaginal delivery. Remarkably, despite gestational diabetes and having a large baby, I achieved this goal. The labor was swift, and my recovery was remarkable, with many noting that I looked healthier and slimmer than before my pregnancy. I attribute a significant part of this success to the bi-weekly workouts and Sara’s dedication. She never let my condition hinder my progress; instead, she pushed me to my limits and provided continuous encouragement. Sara is not only a skilled and knowledgeable trainer, but she also brings warmth, friendliness, and a nurturing attitude to every session. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to embrace a healthier lifestyle, pregnant or not. Thank you, Sara, for playing such a crucial role in one of the most important journeys of my life.

Fantastic experience: Understanding that as I aged it took more effort to stay healthy, in March of 2022 I purchased a 4 session package with a personal trainer. I moved onto an 18 session package, then 6 months, and then a year. Sarah Fawad, who has been my trainer for the last year, is very knowledgable, clear with instruction, always open to adapting to my situation, enthusiastic and very friendly. Sarah challenges me to get the most out of myself each session. This has certainly proved to be the best investment I could ever make for myself!

Negative experience: The machienes is too old..The lighting is poor and the place is boring ..

Fantastic experience: Clean spacious gym. I just wish they got better quality equipment like the other goodlife facilities. Specially yhe abdominal crunch machine is very unsafe due to thea lack of body support.

Fantastic experience: The environment here is a little dated but they have all the equipment and services you need in a gym. Everyone is super friendly!

Fantastic experience: Great facility for women, open 24/7. Secure key access. Clean and well equipped.

Positive experience: I work with BMO so we get corporate membership and I have one, place is clean, stuff are nice, but they always play English music so if they can play Bollywood music that would be great as there’s so many people from that continent

Positive experience: The classes are the biggest asset. Great instructors. Very motivating. The music is often too loud. It is a matter of safety: loud noise is proven to cause hearing loss. Goodlife should measure decibels and have limitations to protect clients and instructors.

Negative experience: needs . urgent . upgrade My main branch is modern, stylish and always clean, also all equipment works as intended so when I visited this location I expected nothing less. Complete disappointment with the quality and care of the equipment and facility! Staff was super helpful but GoodLife really should invest some serious bucks in dignifying this branch.

Positive experience: it’s a nice gym, all your basic machines and weights. There are two squat racks + a smith machine so that’s awesome. It would be nice to add some weightlifting platforms olympic lifts. Women also train that. However, the shower schedule is a deal breaker for me. I travel a lot and need to shower after the workout at all times of the day. I even checked the app and it says open 24/7 and showers. You should add the shower schedule to the app as well for people who drop in occasionally and don’t know how this specific gym operates.

Fantastic experience: In love with the space and location of this gym! Literally the best GL womens only gym I’ve experienced- well maintained and cleaned regularly, staff are friendly and always working hard!

Negative experience: I went to this gym for 17 years. This past year they hiked the annual fee to almost double what I payed the year before. Many classes were eliminated and the value was no longer there. They never reached out to find out why I left. You would think after 17 years....they might want to know what happen? Nope!

Positive experience: This is hard because I like the over all atmosphere and it's a good gym in a lot of ways and its not always crowded which is a big plus. But on the other hand the equipment is very dated, especially the cadio equipment and some of the weight machines. I find it a little hard to enjoy my whole workout because so many machines don't function that well and I personally think should be updated. It's nice that it's women only and I usually can get machines or use areas easily without waiting but the machines being dated really is a downfall for me.

Fantastic experience: It is a nice place to go because it's 24/7:)

Positive experience: Pros: Cleanest Goodlife women gym I've been to, love how it's set up, overall great! Cons: Goodlife gave all the the dated equipment to this gym like the leg press and stairmasters. Also last night was my first time here and your change rooms smelled like BO. Also you need the red barbell plates that are larger for 5lbs and 10lbs so it's easier to lift lighter. As a first time visitor coming in after 9 p.m. I'd advise your gym to have a good life sign outside where the scanner is. I had no idea how to open the locked mall doors since no other Goodlife gym I've been to has scanners like the ones you have.

Fantastic experience: Full privacy

Fantastic experience: This is my favourite location because 1) it's women's only, 2) it's such a big gym considering it's women's only, and 3) it's waaaaay less busy than the coed gyms! Personally I prefer women's only gyms. It's way more comfortable for me. And this one is the best one I've found so far.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend. Friendly staff, clean workout environment. Lots of options for women. Not as massive as some of the GoodLife locations I’ve been to but also no Neanderthals leaving plates on the bar that you can’t lift when you need it next.

Negative experience: I am really upset about the booking online during covid, I pay $60 dolars a month, I have stayed up for 2 weeks till 12 am so I could book 1 hour to work out and has been imposible!, I'm really frustrated right now I'm thinking canceling my membership after 15 years.

Fantastic experience: very Clean ,friendly staff

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, clean and safe environment!

Positive experience: Needs updating badly. Very dark and depressing atmosphere. Needs new floors, brighter paint, brighter lights. The floor in the weights section feels uneven which isn’t good for safe weight lifting performance. Some of the machines squeak loudly and just feel uncomfortable. A very spacious gym with lots of potential. Hopefully they renovate it soon.

Positive experience: Overall a good place to workout. Decent equipment and good classes and instructors.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality

Negative experience: I called to confirm the hours and they are only open from 8am to 4:30pm. Way to keep in mind the 9-5 work week guys I'd give more starts if it was open 7am-9pm like other locations

Positive experience: Overall a good place to workout. Decent equipment and good classes and instructors.

Fantastic experience: Love the staff here!! Super friendly and helpful! Since the COVID situation... this location has made every effort to put the community health as their #1 priority!!! They have been so diligent in wiping down machines and using the reset time to disinfect all machines! I am a daily gym visitor with them. I'm beyond happy that I attend this gym on a daily basis. This gym deserves recognition for their efforts in the health and safety of not only their staff but clients as well!!❤❤❤

Fantastic experience: Enjoyed working out here!

Positive experience: Great place for female only exercise routine.

Positive experience: I'm so happy that most of the floor machines have been upgraded. I just hope that Goodlife upgrades the spinning bikes for this location as well... The old spinning bikes they have now are rusty and old so they are hard to adjust. It's a small gym, but it has everything you need, and the fitness instructors are are good. Just make sure you bring your own towel since the gym doesn't offer towel service.

Fantastic experience: Always a friendly and encouraging place to get fit and make new friends!

Fantastic experience: I've been going to this gym for five years or more, staff is always friendly. Gym is clean and very well kept, not many people come to this hidden gem! By FAR my favourite gym and I use to go to women fitness in Burlington - this one is better

Positive experience: Good club, fun classes and instructors. Lately quite crowded.

Fantastic experience: Very clean, organized, big and the interior is beautifully renovated. Much nicer than the average GoodLife.

Fantastic experience: Probably one of the best gyms I’ve been too! It’s usually not busy at all and the staff is extremely friendly and motivating! I wish there were windows but it’s a great gym including the size!

Positive experience: Great gym. Hours suck

Negative experience: Very unfriendly staff!

Fantastic experience: Very well equipped and never a wait for a machine. Love the choices of classes as they are geared toward women's interests.

Fantastic experience: Super clean, well laid out.
