Annex Fitness Victoria

Fantastic experience: Did the Fall 16 day challenge at Annex , had a great experience: loved the studio space itself and all the little extra amenities they provide, like coffee in the morning , frozen towels after class and providing towels and nice shampoo and conditioner in the showers. All the instructors were so warm and welcoming, and took special care to make me feel comfortable as a newbie. I especially thought Andrea, MJ and Celina stood out. I will definitely continue attending classes!

Fantastic experience: very friendly staff!

Fantastic experience: Go for the workout, stay for the energy. The app is great, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the facilities are stylish, welcoming, and clean. Be ready to be humbled by a barre mat class or move those leggies in a dark spin room, you’ll be hooked in no time.

Fantastic experience: I LOVE the Annex! All the instructors are very motivating and energetic. I definitely see improvements with my strength already

Fantastic experience: Sarah Lachance’s classes are the best!! She instructs clearly, she motivates you to push yourself and is always so empowering. And her music choice is top tier!

Fantastic experience: Awesome workouts. Very friendly and encouraging staff. Lovely bathroom, nice showers with complimentary soap, shampoo, conditioner. Very glad I found this place.

Fantastic experience: My go to studio when I visit Victoria! Greta instructors, great vibes, very clean facilities!

Positive experience: The classes are great. The only thing that always leaves a bad taste in my mouth is the cancelation policy. As busy working moms we cant always know what is going to pop up and the world is expensive enough. I think it would be super helpful and more understandable to have a shorter window. Like 4 hours, that leaves plenty of time for someone to book the spot. Its particularly frustrating when a class has a lot of space or when the class has a waitlist. I don't have to cancel often so its always something that makes it harder to have a positive perception of the studio because I often feel like I am being taken advantage of.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful, welcoming space. Laura leads a great yoga class. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Favourite gym/community of movers I’ve ever been a part of! So many classes to pick from, passionate staff/instructors, lots of membership options, beautiful change rooms, AND you get a cold wet face towel after your workout. Classes fill up fast for good reason, but weights and space to work hard are always available and because there are so many classes offered per day, I’m never worried I won’t workout. Totally worthy investment!!

Fantastic experience: Took spin at Annex for the first time and holyyyy it was so much fun! Morgan brought out such a great energy and created a atmosphere that could make anyone motivated to move their body!! Will for sure be returning :) Thanks Annex!

Fantastic experience: The atmosphere and community are amazing.

Fantastic experience: Unparalleled space, complimentary tasteful amenities, lemongrass soaked face towels for after class, masterful & highly inspired instructors, props ready for you, scheduling to fit anyone’s schedule, and truly extraordinary attention to detail and delivering an industry leading genuine client experience. Great culture too. Highly recommend. I’m addicted.

Fantastic experience: I started Annex on Jan. 4th, 2021; I went through all the changes with them with COVID times. As soon you walk in those doors, you are welcome with kindness and excitement, + the studio is gorgeous! The team is amazing and goes beyond to make you feel seen and comfortable during your workout. I love the community focus and support along the way! I strongly recommend this boutique studio for a workout! Eternally grateful with the whole team, Olena

Fantastic experience: I took two strength classes with Emma last week and they were 10/10! Emma keeps the energy going and is engaging with the whole class. She has an excellent knowledge of the human body and gives the best cues. I also appreciate that Emma gives variations for all comfort levels. Annex is a great studio. Super clean, great amenities and welcoming staff.

Fantastic experience: I love it here! They're super inclusive, kind and informative! Highly recommend their Barre and Spin class!

Fantastic experience: My favourite place to workout in Victoria! The atmosphere and community are amazing and the workouts are tough. Highly recommend! Great instructors too :)

Fantastic experience: Super friendly and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: Great workout, good tunes, we’ll organized!

Fantastic experience: Such a great place. I've only been once and I already love it. Fun staff and trainers, took Emma's Strength Class and it was the best--such a good burn. Can't wait to get better at following along

Positive experience: I’ve only ever tried the spin class, but it was so much fun and energizing! They are a bit pricey, but they have offers and deals that are affordable, like the $5 spin class on Mondays, which they donate the money to a good cause. The staff and instructors are always friendly and welcoming. I definitely give this studio a shot!

Fantastic experience: I did a couple spin classes while in town for work. Super intense and a great sweat. The gym was easy to find and access for a "newcomer" to town. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Was a positive experience and I'd go again.

Fantastic experience: Annex is the best gym I’ve ever been a part of. Great workouts, facilities, and a friendly, inclusive vibe. After my first day there all of the front desk staff already knew me by my name. Feels like home!

Fantastic experience: Such good vibes! Really appreciate the great tunes, welcoming environment and awesome facilities. Can’t wait to try out more classes here

Fantastic experience: Annex is the most amazing welcoming community space. Their leaders are awesome, fun, inclusive and super accommodating, front desk staff are super friendly even when you arrive half asleep for a 6am class and can barely interact with the world. There’s also coffee! I still can’t believe that in one studio there is strength, barre, spin and yoga! Anything you want Annex has it and with the most encouraging leaders who are clearly passionate about what they do. Annex is one of a kind, and much more than a fitness studio. Movement is medicine! Thank you for everything Annex! I will miss you!! P.s please open a studio in Vancouver ❤️

Fantastic experience: First time walking in, I felt a welcoming vibe and the energy was great (may I add this was 5:45 am on a Monday). I was given a tour of the entire location with a look at all the class areas, I was heading in to spin but I liked that I was shown the other areas in the event I book one of those. The layout and style is nice, clean location also. Plenty of lock up area if you have items with you. I highly recommend trying out one of their classes, they are quite enjoyable and high energy/motivating.

Fantastic experience: The fitness classes are so fun and motivating! Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: There are not enough words to describe what an incredible place this is. After moving to Victoria from Calgary during the pandemic, Annex was THE source of community for me. Not only are the facilities top notch, the people are amazing, the workouts are killer, and you will always leave with a smile on your face. If you're thinking about a membership here, do not hesitate, it is worth every penny. Having the ability to do four different workouts under one roof is not only convenient but helps get you in the best shape!

Fantastic experience: OK so where do I even start?! This place is amazing - I’m not saying that lightly! I’ve been consistently going to Annex since October 2021. This the first fitness/gym centre I don’t have to convince myself to go to - I actually look forward to coming! Annex has helped me grow my mental resilience to manage stress, created a sense of community when COVID-19 has gotten tough, and in the process, I’ve never felt so strong and fit. Highly recommend. The facility is also fabulous and their rain showers are a treat post workout. Thank you to the Annex Team!

Fantastic experience: Annex is a beautiful gym and community. Everyone who works there is so nice! The classes are challenging and fun. After class they give you a cold refreshing face towel, the shower facilities are top notch, and they have complimentary hot coffee for morning classes. Plus my best friend Raq works here!

Fantastic experience: Annex is a beautiful, inclusive, one of a kind fitness community. Since joining, Annex has become like a second home. This is one of the first gyms or studios where I truly look forward to booking a class because I know each of the instructors will have an amazing, new work out planned that will challenge me. I appreciate the variety of workouts including barre, spin, strength, yoga and their circuit style classes at Annex Raw up at Uptown. I was also so grateful for their Annex At-Home library which provided so many online fitness classes over the past two years. The attention to detail from cold towels and coffee after class, to incredibly clean showers and locker rooms is outstanding. All of the front desk staff and instructors also take the time to greet you as you come in for class and learn your name which makes you feel a part of this amazing community. I have never stayed so committed and excited about fitness since joining Annex!

Fantastic experience: Annex is one of the most inclusive and welcoming spaces I've ever been to. Walking through those doors instantly puts me in a great mood. Super friendly staff and classes that seriously kick my butt. I look forward to going every week and always leave with a smile on my sweaty face.

Fantastic experience: My second home - I absolutely love coming to Annex classes! They have the best instructors, they’re highly welcoming and friendly! On top, of having the best classes, they offer coffee and wet towels after your workout. The studio is so beautiful, always in awe with the designs of the beautiful space. Morgan, the owner, is an incredibly inspiring person! I feel so lucky to have Annex as a part of my weekly ritual, it’s oftentimes the highlight of my day especially the 6am-ers that set me up to be in a positive mental space and the resilience-building throughout my day!

Fantastic experience: As someone who is not a size 2, 20 year old, boutique gyms and spin studios have always felt super intimidating and unwelcoming to me. But I came to Annex on a recommendation from a friend and everyone at has been so incredible, supportive, and warm right from day one. The instructors are knowledgable and approachable, and they have diverse teaching styles that would suit pretty much everyone. The variety of classes means I'm not bored with my membership, and the community is so wonderful. It doesn't hurt that the amenities are lovely and I want to renovate my bathrooms to match theirs. Thank you Annex!

Fantastic experience: 12/10 The best fitness experience I have ever had. I came to Victoria for a vacation with my partner and bought a 5 class pack. We have been to studios all over north america and europe and this was the 1. nicest and 2. cleanest studio we have ever been to. The variety of classes were also top notch. The people are another level of amazing. Extremely helpful and kind, making it the perfect environment to join a new studio. We would stay for 30-45 minutes after class just sipping coffee and getting to know them. They even went out of their way to provide a full list recommendations for places to visit in Victoria. Special shout out to Celina, Shauna, Brieanne and Ben!

Fantastic experience: Literally the best place ever. So sad I’m leaving Victoria next month and there isn’t one in the lower mainland :(

Fantastic experience: Community? They got it. Pressure-free environment? They got it. Staff that do the classes alongside with you? You guessed it, they got it. Annex is an awesome fitness centre that is extremely welcoming for everyone that obviously really cares about their people and newcomers alike.

Fantastic experience: Honestly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had in a group fitness environment! The staff are so welcoming and friendly and encouraging. If you’re looking for a fun place to try a spin class, go here! It’ll be the best 1 hour of your day.

Fantastic experience: Everyone is so friendly. And the barre classes are awesome!

Fantastic experience: Amazing facility and amazing instructors. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Doesn't get much better then that! Aside from the fact that the people are pure gold the workouts feel absolutely amazing !

Fantastic experience: If you're on the hunt for a new gym.... look no further! This place has the most beautiful space with the most welcoming staff you will ever meet. The spin classes are amazing and the instructors are top notch in all three disciplines. And since we are on a clean kick right now.... this place is spotless, always has been since the day they opened. Try the new member punch pass! You won't regret it! Plus there's Abby..... wait til you meet her... cutest pup ever!

Fantastic experience: The only place that makes me excited to workout at 6am. Everyone is always so friendly and welcoming, the leaders will kick your butt, all while keeping you smiling and motivated through the entire class. Can't say enough about it, Annex is my favourite place to start the day!

Fantastic experience: Annex has completely changed the way I think about working out. The classes are the best part of my day, and never feel like a chore. I love having the option of doing spin, barre or strength, as I tend to get bored easily if I always do the same type of workout. The free coffee after morning classes is a nice touch as well! The instructors and staff are so lovely and it really feels like a community. The space is stunning and immaculately clean, and I can't wait to use the spa-like showers again once covid is over. I really can't say enough good things about Annex. I'm so grateful they opened their doors in Victoria almost a year ago!

Fantastic experience: Awesome facility and instructors.

Fantastic experience: The staff are so welcoming!

Fantastic experience: Amazing facility and amazing instructors. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Beautiful new gym downtown, with amazing staff!

Fantastic experience: My favourite place to be!! The space is beautiful, classes are challenging, instructors are very motivational, and the “hype team” is very warm and welcoming. Love the coffee after the morning classes!

Fantastic experience: What an awesome workout and Emily (Definitely try one of her classes!!) was so sweet and helpful! First time going to Annex fitness and it was totally not what I was expecting -- it was way better! It is challenging for sure, but that is what I liked about it -- it is a super unique workout and I definitely felt muscles working that I haven't felt for a while! One thing that I really loved is that during my first class was that Emily was very attentive to me and always watching out for me. There was another trainer taking the class (I didn't catch her name) but she was also right there when I needed her. They made sure I okay at all times and so encouraging!!

Fantastic experience: This gym is awesome! All you need to do is show up and they have everything set up for you and ready to go (no walking around the gym trying to figure out what to do!). They push you to get your best workout every time and it's a really positive socal environment where I always leave in a great mood... plus there's awesome showers and free coffee which makes for a great mornig routine! Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: When I think of Annex I think of how my body is as sore as my face...from smiling so hard. The inclusive community, motivating knowledge and inspiring leaders are unlike any studio I’ve ever attended. Annex has something for everyone. I’ve worked out all over Western Canada and I can honestly say Annex stands out from every other studio in all the right ways.

Fantastic experience: Not to get too into this review, but Annex is so much more than just a place to workout. It’s a community. A place to meet likeminded, motivated and inspired individuals who share the same passion for life. Beyond the coffee after class and beautiful amenities that make getting ready after an amazing sweat sesh effortless and fun, it’s a space to be you through and through and to encourage others to be the same. Grateful for you, Annex and all you bring to Victoria.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love working out at Annex!! It’s so nice being able to do a variety of workout styles all in one gorgeous space!! And the staff are so friendly!! Couldn’t be happier with my new gym ♥️♥️

Fantastic experience: Have been going to Annex for the last few weeks and am loving it! It’s great being able to switch between the types of classes to keep the body from getting stuck in one movement. Also, the free coffee in the morning is

Fantastic experience: the most amazing fitness studio and community. Annex is 100% inclusive of all people, they are a family and make you feel so welcomed. Every time I walk through the door I leave feeling better than I came. The team of leaders truly are the best role models. I can't say enough positive things about annex! SO MUCH FUN

Fantastic experience: Love this space! The classes are challenging but rewarding. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable about how to get the best workout for your body. Hot coffee in the morning and a smoothie service makes getting up for a 6am class easy! This place makes supporting local business effortless :)

Fantastic experience: This is one of the most welcoming spaces I have ever been too! The classes are fun and engaging, while still being tough. You are able to adapt any class to fit your needs and the instructors are always coming up with new ideas to challenge you even more. You will leave Annex as part of a community! You will be able to focus on your physical health, as well as mental. I highly recommend Annex if you are looking to bring a burst of positivity into your day. I am very grateful for Annex!

Fantastic experience: Stunning space, friendly staff and killer workouts. What else could you ask for? Highly recommend checking our this chic and friendly community gym! Lots of classes to choose from regardless of fitness level. Thank you Annex for creating a beautiful community!

Fantastic experience: Group fitness classes usually make me very anxious but i have nothing but positive things to say about Annex! From the beautiful facility to the amazing staff and community this place is awesome :)
