Grindhouse Athletics

Fantastic experience: I can’t even begin to say enough good words about Aaron and Joey. They have helped me through so much not only mentally but physically as well. Aaron takes the time to listen to my goals and will make a plan accordingly. The effort Aaron has put in to motivate me and keep me on track is unmatched. He has gone above and beyond as a trainer building my strength and confidence in the gym. I started boxing with Joey after wanting to for a really long time and he has helped bring another level of fitness into my life. He explains things in such a simple yet effective way that makes sense. Joey has such a positive attitude that is so contagious. He has made me progress so fast and fall in love with boxing. These two have also helped me through a pretty serious injury and kept me positive throughout the entire recovery. I can not thank them both enough. I 10/10 recommend

Fantastic experience: Finding a quality personal training gym was no easy task. I met with a handful of trainers from gyms in downtown and east van. Grindhouse was easily the best. The facility is top notch and it's been just my trainer and I in there for almost all of my sessions (which is pretty cool). The owner, Diana, has been easy to communicate with and was extremely helpful in figuring out the right package and trainer for my needs. Aaron, my trainer, is super down to earth and receptive to tailoring sessions to reach my psrsonal goals. It's very clear he has made fitness his passion. After a few awesome sessions, my partner decided to join me going forward - Diana made it easy to convert my plan to accommodate this. 10/10 would reccomend for anyone looking to get serious about their health.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Joey for almost 2 years. He knows his stuff! He catches the little tweeks that need to be made to really get the most out of your pad session . He makes you work hard, but it feels like you're training with someone you've known forever! There's always laughs, and of course, his horrible dance moves. You get what you pay for in an industry like his, and he is definitely worth it. If you're not coming to your session ready to work hard, stay home. You Rock Joey!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Joey is an incredible boxing coach. Pays such close attention to details and is very motivating. 10/10. Would highly recommend booking and training at this awesome facility. The entire grindhouse team is awesome.

Fantastic experience: I started kickboxing with Joey with no fundamentals and no knowledge on this sport. It’s been a few months with joey now and he posses a unique ability to build you as a fighter whether you’re training to compete or training to stay fit. If you’re looking to compete there’s no other coach that pays closer attention to detail than Joey and he’ll level you up to your true potential. If you’re looking for a killer workout these rounds will leave you feeling accomplished. Hands down best coach and rounds you can find in the city

Fantastic experience: Great staff for personal sessions! Convenient spot

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Love this gym - started here 2 years ago, a few months after giving birth. I thought I would feel out of place because strength training was new to me, but the staff and chill atmosphere put me at ease right away and I’ve been loving it since.

Fantastic experience: Grindhouse is hands down the best private training gym in all of Vancouver. I've been training and doing boxing lessons at Grindhouse since the start of this year. After trying out several different gyms, and fitness classes, I can safely say I've finally found a home! The most important thing that stood out to me was how welcomed and at home I felt from day one. The community atmosphere and culture that Naz and Dee have created is unparalleled (they are both so amazing). Everyone is so inclusive, kind and welcoming. Aaron has been amazing with my weight training and has really helped support me in achieving my goals. He is extremely attentive and is always challenging me in new ways. Joey has been phenomenal with his boxing sessions. As a beginner to boxing, he was so patient with me and really emphasized the quality of training with his attention to detail and technique. I've recommended so many friends and family to come and experience Grindhouse like I have. I can't say enough good things about this facility and can't wait to see it grow! Thank you guys.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I have had the pleasure of working with Aaron (Ryan) over the last 6 months on a weekly basis. Aaron is knowledgeable, patient and motivating. My physical strength has increased significantly and I look forward to my twice weekly sessions. I would highly recommend him if you are looking for a Personal Trainer.

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Not intimidating as other gyms can be. No worries about what you're wearing, who's watching, what others are doing, or who you know; in fact, there's only respect for working hard and making your health a priority. You get to know the regulars - btw, that's who you want to become - a regular . Coaches/trainers are courteous, knowledgeable, kind and much more; it's always fun! I'm never worried about working hard or concerned of injury as they offer much support to your specific needs and demo all exercises for form and posture, without fail! I'm very happy with the location, the service, the training and especially for Naz and Diana's unconditional support to my health! I highly recommend you come and give it a try, you will not regret it!

Fantastic experience: This is one of the best gyms in Vancouver! It’s in an easy to find area and most importantly with a lot of street parking. Everyone is so friendly and positive here. I’ve been coming to Grindhouse for a few months now and still look forward to every training session. Joey has such great knowledge for boxing and shares it with so much passion. He truly loves what he does and it shows. I’ve noticed so much improvement with my technique, strength and confidence. Naz and Diana are such wonderful people too, they have the best energy.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at Grindhouse for almost a year, four times a week. I’m in love with the process of my fitness journey. The Owners truly stand behind their approach to fitness and have created an environment that does not exist anywhere else. I actually look forward to going to Grindhouse and have never felt stronger or had more energy. Aaron my trainer, is amazing - he is highly motivating and holds me accountable to push myself. Every workout is intense but every workout is also different. My overall happiness and well being is the most important part of my progress and Grindhouse has exceeded that!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism Love working with the Grindhouse staff. They are very knowledgeable and personable to tailor what training I need. Thank you Grindhouse!

Fantastic experience: thank you lisa and Josh for helping me to exchange my short :)))) nice quick and friendly place

Fantastic experience: The owners were very helpful with all my questions, and were quick to reply. Myself and my friend are on the two on one program, and I love the direct attention we get. I always worry "am I doing it right?!" when I work out as a group, but with this level of attention, and the immediate feedback and correction, it's amazing. The gym itself is perfect- has everything you need for a great session, and their products are great quality (my boxing gloves are from here). The coaches- are THE BEST. I also won't tell you who my coaches are cause I don't want to share them. haha. . I think we are life-ers here. Thanks to this team.

Fantastic experience: I was welcomed with open arms at Grindhouse! The staff were friendly, polite and they have a full range of equipment to get me in shape and a well rounded staff to suit my fitness and boxing needs.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Love coming here every week to train with my boxing coach. All the trainers here are very welcoming, knowledgeable and professional. I’ve been to many boutique gyms and they are definitely one that will keep you focused and inspired on making progress and reaching your goals.

Fantastic experience: I came across this gym on Instagram. Boy, am I glad I found this place! I started training with Joey twice a week. He’s one of the best boxing trainers I’ve had. He is knowledgeable, experienced, professional, and patient. In addition to boxing training I was also interested in strength training and weight loss. Joey suggested I speak to Aaron, who is one of the other trainers at Grindhouse. Today was my 3rd session with Aaron and let me tell you (as someone who has tried many apps/ exercise programs/ personal trainers over the last decade) he is by far the best personal trainer I’ve had!!! Everyone says they will write a program just for you and they really don’t. BUT, Aaron really listens to you and works with you. Grindhouse is very lucky to have two very solid trainers! If you are in need of a personal trainer or a boxing coach contact them immediately. The gym overall is very clean, the prices are fantastic, the staff is professional, and although I haven’t met the owner in person, all of my email interactions with them has been great.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Professional , welcoming staff.I really enjoy my sessions with Joey

Fantastic experience: Great full body work outs that are different each time. Instructors know their stuff and push you along.

Fantastic experience: An amazing gym with top-notch trainers and a great community of folks at different fitness levels.

Fantastic experience: The trainers are great and the space is perfect.

Fantastic experience: Very knowledgeable head coach. Also very humble, not at all intimidating. One of the very few places you find in Vancouver that really care about your form and teaching proper way of training with reasoning behind it. Highly recommend it! For anyone in all fitness levels

Fantastic experience: The trainers at Grindhouse are amazing- they are welcoming, motivating, and extremely knowledgeable. If you are living with injuries, this is the place to come- the trainers are all accommodating about and educated in working with your physical limitations. Dee and the staff run numerous classes throughout the day and evening, ensuring I can stop in at any time that works for my schedule. This is not at all an intimidating space- Grindhouse very accessible and welcoming. I highly recommend this gym to anyone, at any age or fitness level.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Grindhouse classes now for more than six months and have never experienced a duplicate class! The trainers are all so experienced and the classes provide a variety of challenges for the whole body. All levels of users are factored in to every class so I am consistently challenged and pushed to work harder than I ever would on my own. In addition to that, the staff are super friendly, welcoming and create a fun environment. They are building a true community - I love it!

Fantastic experience: So glad to found this place! Good equipment and great instructors.

Fantastic experience: Such a good work out!

Fantastic experience: I have been going to grindhouse classes for over 8 months now. The classes vary from. Cardio to kickboxing to strength. The strength ones are my favourite as they challenge me and I am getting the results I want. Dee is a fantastic trainer with so much knowledge. Never did I think I would be Olympic lifting but Dee and Naz are great motivators. I recommend these classes to anyone looking for a change in their routine and for anyone stuck in an exercise Rut with no results. Grindhouse will change your outlook on yourself for the better!

Fantastic experience: Grindhouse has been amazing for me! I have trained with other trainers but never got results! With Diana and Naz I now have great results! They are extremely knowledgeable from cross fit training, weights to diets and rehabilitation Diana went out of her way to help me get results, between Diana and Naz I am feeling and looking stronger! Love them!

Fantastic experience: Diana and Naz are very helpful and highly knowledgeable about what they do. No matter how unique your fitness needs are they want to know about it. They are diligent in meeting your needs. Their program is science based designed to increase your strength. And they are so much fun. Being fit is fun at Grindhouse.

Fantastic experience: I have been trained by Dee for many years now and she has helped me reach many of my fitness goals. Dee and Naz make a great team and motivate me to work hard and push myself. Grindhouse is a welcoming environment with excellent classes for any fitness levels. I recommend their classes to everyone.

Fantastic experience: Great classes, and Dee is a great instructor. Each class brings with it, an immense amount of knowledge that can be incorporated into a persons fitness plan, whatever that may be. Personally, I like to lift heavy, and like all who lift heavy, I hit a plateau. I went to Dee's class at Grindhouse, and was able to shatter previous personal records. This was due to full body conditioning, improved cardio, and lessons learned regarding various techniques. I highly recommend Grindhouse Fitness to anyone who seeks to improve their physical health, no matter their physical capacity. This well priced no bull approach is exactly what you need to enter a new plane of fitness and physical well bieng.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Grind House for several months. I recommend it to everyone, from beginner to advanced, everyone can enjoy workouts there. A great way to get an all-around workout with everything from traditional powerlifting to bodyweight and cardio. Check them out, you can get a free trial class!
