Church Fitness

Fantastic experience: Excellent fitness studio! The classes are challenging and engaging. The STRide class is super unique with 1/2 kettlebell strength, 1/2 spin… must try! The instructors are very motivating and bring great energy to every workout. The front desk staff are friendly and welcoming. Highly highly recommend this studio.

Fantastic experience: I have been to many group fitness studios in my life, but there is something so special about Church. The class format is perfect; I only have about 1-2 days a week that I can take a class and theirs are incredible. They have included all muscle groups plus cardio to ensure a full body workout every time. The studio is clean, spacious and welcoming. Everyone who works there is so friendly, and they remember my name even though I only get there a few times a week. Amazing gym all around, there’s a reason the classes fill so quickly!!!

Fantastic experience: I was looking for a change after working out in my basement for the last few years. A good friend recommend Church and boy am I glad she did. The workouts are challenging, the instructors are knowledgeable, motivating and friendly. It doesn’t matter where you are in your fitness journey, they will meet you there. The energy in the room is amazing. From start to finish I’m never bored, I’m always pushing myself even when I don’t think I want to and I find myself getting stronger with each class. If you are looking for a great workout in a fun, friendly, supportive environment, I highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Church fitness. The classes are challenging, but the instructors are motivating and make working out enjoyable. The energy in each class is amazing! I love Amie’s classes. She always greets you by name and really makes you feel like you’re part of the community!

Fantastic experience: Church is such a great and unique way to workout! Amie is such a great instructor who is not only knowledgeable but also so sweet and greets you with your name! So personable and makes you feel so welcomed. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Church made me enjoy working out again. I absolutely love the staff and the classes are so enjoyable. Thank you to the Church team for making my experience so wonderful!

Fantastic experience: This place is a game changer! The coaches are inspirational. The workouts are painfully great with tons of variety so you will never be bored. They welcome everyone with open arms and make you feel part of their community. Lastly I enjoy the challenges that they have. It keeps you motivated and coming back for more!!!

Fantastic experience: Bought a class pass in December as I had always wanted to try it out. Went to a Strength class one morning with Amy and couldn't walk for a few days lol it was a good thing! and also tried out one of the stretch classes (hips don't lie) and it was magical.

Fantastic experience: The energy at Church Fitness is contagious! I left my classes feeling motivated and ready for my day ahead!

Fantastic experience: This place is great! Different from other gym locations I have used. Classes are short but enough for my needs. Instructors are very helpful and professional.

Fantastic experience: I started going to Church Fitness in January as the first step in restarting my fitness journey after a surprise divorce, and I couldn’t have asked for a better place to begin. The space itself is unique and immersive—dark lighting, incredible music, and an atmosphere that makes every workout feel like an experience. No two classes are the same, so there’s always an element of excitement and variety. I’ve done both the strength and circuit classes, and they’ve all been challenging, fun, and engaging. One of the standout features for me has been the plunge room, which is a game-changer. It’s so convenient, especially since there aren’t many places in the area that offer cold tubs. It truly makes for a holistic wellness experience. But what really sets Church Fitness apart is the people. The coaches are unbelievably kind, motivating, and supportive. One time, I forgot my shoes, and Mara actually offered me hers—such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture. Another time, I had a last-minute work meeting come up and couldn’t make class. I called to let them know, and the owner, Sunny, answered. She not only thanked me for calling ahead but also waived the late cancellation fee, saying that everyone deserved a chance. That level of understanding and kindness is rare, and it speaks volumes about the community. I’ve seen people of all ages and abilities in class, which makes it a truly inclusive space. If you’re looking for a gym that offers great workouts, an amazing atmosphere, and a supportive community, I couldn’t recommend Church Fitness more highly.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Church Fitness. For anyone looking to get back into a fitness routine, this is the perfect place to start. After not maintaining a fitness regime for the past 4+ years, I signed up for and completed the newbie challenge this January. When I bought the passes I thought it was a great deal thinking that even if I went 10x it was a steal. After going to my first few classes I found that I was genuinely enjoying the experience, which is something I have never said about working out in the past. I decided to challenge myself to complete the 20 classes, and not only did I, but I exceeded it and completed 21 classes! I’ve just signed up for a year long membership and I am looking forward to focusing on my wellbeing this year! I want to thank the Church team for creating an incredible space. I feel so fortunate to have found such a positive and inclusive community that has already provided me with the support I need to prioritize myself. Each of the team members have been kind, compassionate, motivating and empowering whether it be the lovely ladies checking me in or the line up of phenomenal instructors cheering me on. I look forward to coming in and sweating it out each day.

Fantastic experience: Church Fitness has truly got it right! From the welcoming community to the perfect balance of challenge and support, every workout feels purposeful. The trainers are knowledgeable, Sunny is incredible, motivating, and genuinely cares about your progress. The space is inclusive, making it easy to show up and push yourself, no matter your fitness level. They say “A FITNESS EXPERIENCE THAT WILL MOVE YOUR BODY, INSPIRE YOUR SOUL & CHANGE YOU FROM THE INSIDE OUT.” I moved. I’m inspired. And I can’t wait to keep coming back for change. If you're looking for a place that combines, fitness, community, and support this is it!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love Church! They offer top-notch strength training and spin classes that challenge you in the best way possible. Every instructor is incredibly motivating and knows how to push you while keeping the energy high. No matter which class you take, you’ll leave feeling stronger and accomplished. If you’re looking for a place that kicks your butt in the best way and keeps you coming back for more, this is it! Highly recommend to anyone wanting to take their fitness to the next level.

Fantastic experience: Other than the fact that it's a fantastic one stop shop for all things self care - from HIIT workouts, cardio, yoga, and stretch. The people at Church have become like family. They look out for you like family, they check on you, and care about you. Thanks guys for being there for me through the absolute toughest years of my life (so far). Im getting closer to who I used to be before my mental health and life stress tore me away from myself. Thank you so much. I can not begin to explain what you guys have done for me. Looking forward to a great year with you guys watching my back ;) Sally S

Fantastic experience: Professional and friendly staff, clean and beautiful space, positive and fun atmosphere. Excited to continue!

Fantastic experience: Joining CHURCH Fitness has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From day one, I’ve felt welcomed and supported by this incredible fitness community. It’s a place where I’ve grown stronger physically, mentally, and emotionally. One of the most unexpected and rewarding parts of this journey has been the friendships I’ve made here. The sense of camaraderie and support is unmatched, and I’ve connected with so many amazing people who inspire me daily. The trainers and members are truly incredible, always encouraging me to push past my limits while celebrating every win, big or small. The workouts are challenging yet so rewarding, and the positive energy in the studio is contagious. I’m so grateful to be a part of this amazing community that has had such a positive impact on my life. CHURCH Fitness has become my second home, and I can’t recommend it enough to anyone looking for more than just a workout. It’s a lifestyle, a family, and a place where you’ll find strength in every way.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this gym! From the moment I walk in, I always feel so welcome. The front desk staff are friendly and warm, and all the teachers are incredible! Every class feels like part of a supportive and motivating community. The workouts are challenging but fun, and the instructors know how to push you to do your best. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great workout

Fantastic experience: This review is very overdue! I moved back to Calgary last December and joined the January 20-class challenge in hopes to get moving again. What I have gotten in return has been so much more than physical fitness! The community is the best part that has had me coming back consistently for the last 9 months. The studio is always thinking of new challenges (with great prizes) to keep it exciting. They host social events throughout the year and they’re always encouraging you to chat with new people. I’ve made some amazing new friends from joining Church (shoutout to the J Crew!!) It’s a very welcoming space and all instructors are sooo friendly. I was completely new to spin and never felt shame in my journey to get stronger, both mentally and physically. Sunny & team have made Church Fitness into such an incredible safe space that has meant so much to me during a transitional time of my life! <3 I highly encourage coming in to try a few classes!! You’ll be hooked!

Fantastic experience: Church is an incredible spot to start or continue your fitness journey. I’ve been going here for 10 months now, averaging 10-12 classes a month. Since opening last November they’ve added more class times and a great variety of strength, circuit, mobility and spin. The aesthetic is super cool, change rooms are clean and spacious, and the instructors are top notch. As a physio I’m always aware of how strength programs are put together and how things are taught. Group fitness will always be different than 1:1 personal training, but I’m so happy with the variety and quality of exercises used in classes here. There’s a structure to each type of class, but nothing ever feels repetitive. And the music is loud and fun as hell. 100% recommend trying this fantastic small business with a huge heart.

Fantastic experience: Church is hands down the best fitness facility I’ve ever attended. The community and classes are compared to none! I’m actually excited to workout, even after the hardest of days - which is completely new for me. There’s no question that what they’ve built is incredible and I’m so grateful to be part of this community

Fantastic experience: I never thought I would find another work out studio that felt like home until I started going to Church fitness. Trying different studios across Calgary, last year nothing felt quite like the right fit. I told my fiancé “ I’m never going to find a place I like again”. I went to a couple classes when it opened and once I did a 20 class challenge I was hooked. From the minute you walk in you feel welcome. The instructors are knowledgeable and friendly. The studio is inclusive for people across fitness journeys. I had never lifted a weight before going to church and now I LOVE attending the strength classes. There is a community that is being built there and I have made quite a few friends at the studio. There are different challenges throughout the months that are motivating and exciting. I would encourage anyone to check out this space. I feel healthier than ever physically. Also the parking is free!

Fantastic experience: I began at Church Fitness in February after a six-month hiatus from working out. What started as a 10-class intro offer quickly evolved into a 20-class challenge and eventually became my regular fitness routine. From the moment you step through the doors, you’re greeted with warm smiles and a personal hello, always remembering everyone’s name, which is impressive! The workouts are challenging yet incredibly rewarding, pushing you out of your comfort zone and yielding noticeable results. With a diverse range of participants and an exceptional team led by Sunny, Church Fitness has cultivated a supportive community that I’m thrilled to be a part of. I’m genuinely happy to have found these amazing people and a place I look forward to going to.

Fantastic experience: Sunny and her team at Church Fitness are incredibly motivational! The classes are always welcoming, and I leave feeling stronger and accomplished after every workout. The strength classes are my favourite, but there's truly something for everyone. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I truly can’t say enough about this team, space, programming and community. The space is beautiful and simple and well thought out. They call it a sanctuary and it could not be more accurate. The weight of your day carried into the space is seamlessly left at the door - with the welcome from one of the wonderful church team. The programming is what I’ve so deeply needed (and quieted all those non experts that argue cardio vs strength on your feed - go to a signature STRENGTH class and you’ll find the answer ) in my fitness journey. My strength and cardio has improved, but I’ve done it with the support of a routine and a community I love - which has done wonders for my mental health (the most important health IMO). On that note - feeling blue/anxious? Jump it the plunge 1-2x a week for a month and you will see a beautiful improvement. Check out this gym. It might just save ya’ (it sure has for me!)

Fantastic experience: Love the Church classes and instructors. Perfect balance for me with spin, strength and yoga. Very welcoming, I never feel uncomfortable going at my own pace or modifying if I need to. I LOVE the music and darker studio spaces. Have not tried the cold plunge/infrared sauna yet…working up to that

Fantastic experience: Church has become a huge part of my fitness routine! The classes are so much fun have been very effective, challenging, and rewarding for me. Class times work well with my crazy busy work and mom-ing schedule too. The instructors are absolutely fantastic, each with their own unique style. They really encourage you to step out of your comfort zone, which has been great for us shy/quiet folk :) The space is clean, luxurious and beautiful and the staff at the front desk are always very welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Love the format of the spin, circuit and strength classes. Offer a lot of opportunities for community building and engagement (challenges, contests, social events)

Fantastic experience: Church Fitness has helped me get back into working out again after a long break. The staff are all warm and welcoming and the workouts are challenging but really fun. I love seeing a range of ages and abilities in each class. It’s overall a great atmosphere!

Fantastic experience: This fitness studio is life changing! Amazing instructors, HARD workouts and just the coolest space! I actually never could say I truly enjoyed a spin class until I came here !

Fantastic experience: Excellent classes and something for everyone and everyday! Great staff!!

Fantastic experience: I joined CHURCH when a friend suggested taking part in a newcomers challenge and it has been nothing short of amazing!!! There is a variety of classes, from strength, yoga, circuit, and spin. Not to mention the charity classes too!! The classes are always high energy and challenging with options to take it down a notch when you don't feel like giving it your all. I have bounced around from a few fitness studios over the years and CHURCH is by far the MOST inclusive. Everytime I come to CHURCH I leave feeling re-energized. 10/10 would recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Church is amazing offering a variation of classes and what you’re feeling that day, they have it! If you’re looking for a new studio or somewhere to try something new this is the place! A 10/10 bougie studio with 10/10 staff :)

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about Church! The staff is exceptionally friendly and supportive, and create a welcoming environment where you instantly feel at home. The variety of classes keeps things fresh and the sense of community is unmatched. This is the first fitness routine I've consistently followed in years and I actually look forward to my workouts. I highly recommend Church to anyone who wants to commit to their fitness journey!

Fantastic experience: Excellent classes and great space. Highly

Fantastic experience: Church is amazing! I always hated going to the gym but I had one class at Church and fell in love! Staff are very friendly and classes are fun and exciting! I would recommend church to anyone, especially if you struggle having motivation to workout!

Fantastic experience: Amazing instructors and super friendly community to be apart of!

Fantastic experience: Church is a great gym! You don't typically find boutique gyms like this, with this quality, outside of the city's core. Sunny has great classes. Loads of parking. Highly recommended!

Negative experience: As an avid spin, f45’er and Pilates person, I was truly hoping to fall in love with this place. The overall aesthetic was cool, but the classes I took did not live up to the hype. I found the circuit class I took seemed more self-guided in a sense of figuring out the movement/form and motivation to go heavy. As for the spin class, I honestly did not feel the vibe at all. It’s very unmotivating when the instructor is on and off the bike throughout the class, which I have never experienced in the years attending spin throughout the city. After my 2 experiences, my friend and I decided that we would cancel the rest of our trial classes as it wasn’t the studio for us. Which to my surprise, I was charged a no-show fee. When I contacted the studio, I was told there was no history record of my class cancellation, but I had mentioned I cancelled 2 others that week too, which they didn’t see the record of that either. There was definitely an issue with their app, which I had asked for rectification for. Unfortunately, despite expressing my unhappiness with the classes I took, they only offered a $20 credit, knowing I had no intention of returning. When I expressed this, I was never replied to. 2 stars reflects the aesthetic and the reset room that I did not try so cannot speak to. **added note: they graciously provided free week trials for a goodie bag that was for an educator wellness event when asked if they could provide a prize for the event. This aspect of their business is great to promote wellness causes but does not discredit the unfortunate experience that was experienced. Each google reviewer is allowed to share their opinion on a studio and their classes in true honesty and to not feel shamed in doing so!

Fantastic experience: Recently my wife suggested that I go with her to a circuit class at Church Fitness. I was reluctant at first because I’ve never done circuit or spin before and honestly it’s been a while since doing any workouts. We did a class and it was exactly what I needed. It was challenging, high energy and I pushed myself way more than I have in a long time (maybe ever)! After a couple classes I signed up for the May 20 class challenge and now I’m hooked! I would recommend Church to anyone looking for a place to motivate and encourage you on your health journey.

Fantastic experience: I have never been one to consistently workout, but I took a leap and went to a few classes and it did not disappoint. Not only are the classes amazing and the space stunning, Sunny and her team leave you feeling motivated and inspired each and every class. The community that Church has created in such a short time is incredible. I’ve completed 50 classes and I cannot wait to keep up the momentum that Church has inspired!

Fantastic experience: Sunny and her crew are absolutely amazing! I usually go to Sunny, Mara, and Amie’s classes. This gym is a nurturing and supportive environment. When you walk into the entrance, you’re greeted with a smile and positive energy, to the workouts that are energizing and challenging at the same time. The aesthetic of this place is modern and is a plus! But the most important quality is the community it has built. Everyone, including the members, is so friendly and welcoming. It’s just a vibe, truly a must!

Fantastic experience: Church is the place to be - any day and any time. Amazing and accessible parking, great front desk staff, amazing trainers, fabulous classes (love that there are some in the evening Fridays!), and the space is absolutely gorgeous. Take me to CHURCH! :)

Fantastic experience: Great energy of the staff when you first walk in. Great environment and the classes are challenging and fun.

Fantastic experience: Excellent facility! So clean, so new, amazing style and vibe! Tons of easy access parking out front. Front staff are professional, helpful and attentive. Trainers are all there because they love to help people and are passionate about health and fitness. It is rare to find a collective group of people who all work hard to support each individual who comes through their doors and joins their community! Definitely check this place out if you are interested in Spin, strength, yoga, ice baths and red light therapy. Very inviting.

Fantastic experience: Church is the most welcoming, fun, inspiring place to workout. The classes are phenomenal, what you get out of each class all depends what you put into it - and the instructors are there to make sure you give everything you've got. This place brightens my mood every time I'm here. I'm pushed to new levels each time and have never had so much fun being inspired. There's no place like Church.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this place, after a much anticipated opening this fall it did not disappoint!! The space is so inspiring and well designed, you will not feel out of place or uncomfortable for a second. The strength classes are my favourite and every instructor has been so amazing. Can’t wait to try the cold plunge and red light therapy! Highly recommend , you will be hooked after your first class.

Fantastic experience: I walked into church not knowing what to expect. Intimidated. Lacking Self confidence and feeling like I wouldn't fit in..I had to talk myself into showing up. The girls were quick to show me around, teach me what I needed for each class, and reassured me that you just had to start somewhere. It's been a month of going to this gym and it's so much more than that. Its community, Its self confidence building, Its supportive, its motivating, its challenging, its rewarding and it quickly becomes addictive. Its good for your body, brain and heart. There is something magical about this place. The owner Sunny is constantly looking for feedback, improving anything she can for its members, and is supportive as they come. There are so many options for classes everyday, I would encourage everyone to try it- regardless of what you're afraid of.

Fantastic experience: Church is a gorgeous space with a lot of options for folks that are interested in fun fitness classes. I have done spin and strength classes since they opened and enjoyed them all. The strength classes with Amie are my favorite. Easy parking is a massive bonus.

Fantastic experience: The staff are so welcoming Classes are unbelievable Love the strength one !!!!!

Fantastic experience: This place seriously exceeds the standard of Calgary's fitness studio scene. Great coaches, clean facility, and a welcoming/motivating vibe. Exactly what the NW needed (and more)! Extra love for the strength classes! 10/10 recommend.

Fantastic experience: Love the assortment of different classes offered in the same location. They ran a great January promotion to get people inspired to work out and try the offerings. Good vibes too.

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing place to go. Everyone is welcoming and friendly. I look forward to my workouts now!!

Fantastic experience: I’m obsessed with this place! Beautiful location, amazing staff! The classes are challenging, and the instructors create a fun atmosphere. 10/10 would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely LOVE Church Fitness. Friendly, fun, good selection of classes and Great instructors....even at 6am in freezing cold weather :)

Fantastic experience: Love that there are so many different classes here: strength, yoga, spin, movement! Great coaches and great vibe. Appreciate the push from the challenges they host too. I always leave super sweaty and feeling great. They certainly cultivate an energy and care for each other.

Fantastic experience: My new second home! I have tried a lot of fitness places over the past few years and nothing has really connected with me until I entered Church for the first time. The staff is so friendly and helpful, no matter the class type, and the facility itself is beautiful. I feel like i get a full mind, body, and soul workout every time i enter. Definitely go if you’ve been considering!

Fantastic experience: Such a welcoming community:) Love the warm room for yoga and the strength and spin classes are challenging and fun. The 50 minutes fly by and I love the mood of the room. Church - any day of the week :)

Fantastic experience: I love that the studio offers spin, yoga & strength! Attended my first spin class and it’s not like any other spin class I’ve been to!

Fantastic experience: CHURCH is no joke! I have never felt more welcomed into a space & extremely comfortable to enter each and every room, no matter if it’s yoga, strength, or spin. Their customer service is next to none in the fitness industry & I absolutely love having this space in the NW also, so close to home! If you haven’t tried out/checked out this space yet, DON’T WAIT. YOUR MISSING OUT!!

Fantastic experience: I had my first yoga class here and as a beginner I felt SO comfortable and relaxed. Such a welcoming environment & all of the staff are so kind ❤️

Fantastic experience: Brand new in nw! Great vibes and I love the energy of the moody lighting for working out on the bike and on the floor!

Fantastic experience: This place is incredible. Such a vibe and incredible customer service. Sunny’s spin class isn’t just a spin class, it’s a 50 minute inspirational therapy session. 10 stars!
