Highland Fitness and Wellness

Fantastic experience: It's been a blast getting started at this personal training gym with Matt. Everyone here, both staff & other clients, are friendly and fun. Place has all the equipment you can imagine and space for numerous activities off the equipment. Extremely clean and bright. I'm excited to continue this new journey towards a better me!

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym with friendly, knowledgeable instructors. I’m enjoying my training sessions with Matt, always upbeat and changing exercises. Routines are well thought out, perfectly challenging so I’m only moderately sore the next day. Also looking forward to golf fitness classes coming up in February.

Fantastic experience: I just discovered Highland Fitness in November 2024 when I came to a boxing class. I was blown away by the genuine enthusiasm of the co-owner Matt. The gym has a friendly atmosphere with smiling clients working out. The boxing classes have been terrific. The instructor Chris is great and gives encouraging feedback to participants. I can’t recommend Highland Fitness enough! It is a gem in Scarborough!

Fantastic experience: Highland fit is a very unique place to go to for a workout, it’s such a warm and friendly place to get fit and healthy. Sometimes there are great discussions, debates, sharing information and laughs. I’ve been there almost 3 years, my kids were shocked I went back a second week, did not like exercise. I definitely wouldn’t have been going to a regular gym for a week let alone 3 years, and I still love it. I started with Allison and she had a lot of challenges with me. My balance was really bad when I started, it has improved so much and I credit HF for most of the improvements, my family and friends do as well. Thank HF team. Kristi and Matt have put a great team of trainers together, they all bring something different to the team and they’re all friendly . There is no other place where everybody knows your name

Fantastic experience: Loving the personal, tailored approach of Highland Fitness. Having scheduled times keeps me on track, and trainer Matt is helping me to progress towards my goals. Friendly and welcoming environment.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful trainers. I been with Eric for 10+ years and have had great success. My both sons been training with him as well since they were 9 and 12yrs old and are now teenagers..I honestly wouldn't pick any other gym to train. Matt has been also motivated me and my kids to keep working hard. Excellent staff, excellent results.

Fantastic experience: Matt was very knowledgeable, welcoming and is community based, five stars

Fantastic experience: I've been doing personal training here and also have taken the cardio dance classes. It's a really welcoming place for people of all abilities. The cardio dance class is super fun, reminds me of old school aerobics.

Fantastic experience: I have found Highland Fitness to be a great place to workout in. The team is knowledgeable and enjoys what they do which makes it easier to achieve your fitness goals. They also have a nutrition specialist which compliments your workout plan and gets you better results! Give them a try, you won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: This gym has my highest recommendation. Excellent trainers, welcoming atmosphere, inclusive of all body types, ages and abilities. If you are committed to making fitness/ lifestyle changes, you want this team on your side.

Fantastic experience: Went for my first class and everyone there was super nice and made me feel so welcome! The gym itself looks great and well maintained. Looking forward to coming in more often!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this location! Welcoming vibes, excellent amenities, and fantastic staff. For me, this location is 10/10. If you're planning to get the best trainer, ask for Matt. He's not only a great professional but also a wonderful person. You'll feel like you're training with a friend.

Fantastic experience: I joined Highland Fitness and Wellness about 3 months ago. I am very happy with the experience and the focus of my personal trainer, Jake. The staff is very professional and committed to their work; the facility is well equipped and with sufficient room.

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing. Amazing trainers, always looking out for one another. They help you become motivated. They are like a family. All the trainers are experienced, and will make sure your health goals and needs are met. Amazing for athletes of all ages. Recommend everyone to set up a class with one of their trainers. You'll find your in a whole new world and will become a better version of yourself.

Fantastic experience: I definitely recommend Highland Fit! This gym is always very clean, has amazing staff and a friendly, relaxed ambience. Boxing with Christian is a great choice as with his extensive knowledge and experience in the field, he teaches you both offensive and defensive skills. You leave each class feeling like a champ! Spin class with Anisah is also such a fun experience as she creates a comfortable, lively environment. Anisah’s classes are beginner-friendly and the combination of LED party lights and energetic music makes each class a party! I’ve also been attempting the yoga pose Crow Pose for a couple of weeks and could never properly hold the position. After mentioning this to Matt he gave me a complimentary 30-minute training session where we went over multiple strength training exercises. After my session with Matt I can now successfully hold this difficult yoga pose for a few seconds!

Fantastic experience: I have had the pleasure of working with Mikayla for the past two months and it has been such a great experience. From day one, she took the time to understand my fitness goals and created a personalized plan that helped me achieve the best results. Mikayla is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and the sweetest trainer ever! :)

Fantastic experience: I was looking for a new gym and dropped into see Matt Mcewan at Highland Creek Wellness and Fitness. What a great experience. Clean and bright with a really personal feel. I worked specifically on golf fitness and my game has really improved. Thanks Matt for helping me reach my goals!!!

Fantastic experience: Friendly, nice, clean, non-judgmental atmosphere for any body type or ability. Kristi and Jake are my trainers, and Matt and everyone else is always happy to see you when you come inside. Your mood changes when you walk through the doors, even if you know there is a workout waiting for you. Personal one on one training is full body training, and they let you know how you are doing and encourage you with positive affirmations. They push you to your limit without harming your body, working with you and taking you to your best self. The location is fantastic, in the heart of the Highland Creek Village. Glad I made the decision to join, I look forward to my training sessions and don't feel like it is a chore I have to complete. I feel so great about myself and the progress I have made with them, just in the first month of training. Looking forward to the future with them! Debbie

Fantastic experience: Highland Fitness is a clean, well-maintained personal fitness facility that offers in-person sessions with a trainer who tailors your program to what you want to accomplish. In addition to training, they help you with discussions of total wellness - nutrition coaching, health coaching, sleep/stress management, your outside activities, etc. Everyone chooses their own schedule - time, day of week, frequency (once/twice/three times weekly) depending on different schedules/needs. I enjoy frequently seeing people I recognize. The trainers and other customers make everybody feel like we all belong. There are also various group fitness classes and an in-house osteopath (Jason) available to all. I joined with a specific short term goal in mind, which they helped me plan for and was accomplished successfully. I have continued there for maintenance purposes, which they have also helped me accomplish successfully. Highland Fitness is not just a collection of equipment left alone in a large warehouse - it is a personal training studio. All in all, a great addition to both my health and life.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been with Highland Fitness for about a year and just recently came back to the gym after needing to take some time away. Here’s why I would only come here: 1) genuine, authentic trainers who care about your health - not just the routines but you, your health and helping you feel better and stronger; 2) flexibility - they make it work for you and your schedule; 3) no “airs” or pretence at the gym - welcoming, relaxed and comfortable. The community that Matt, Kristi and the team have developed is tremendous. I always come out feeling better and stronger than when I went in.

Fantastic experience: I've been dedicated to my fitness journey for over a decade, but working with a personal trainer has truly been a game-changer. Since joining Highland Creek Fitness in July 2021, I've had the pleasure of working with the amazing individuals, Mat and Kristi. Their personalized approach, friendliness, and kindness have made a significant impact on my fitness routine. Having such a quality fitness center in Highland Creek is undoubtedly an asset.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with friendly staff. The trainers are very knowledgeable and encouraging. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a good gym with with great community!

Fantastic experience: Highland Fitness and Wellness Gym is an amazing Gym! The trainers here are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. If you're looking for personal training to reach any goals, while staying motivated and having a great time. I highly recommend checking this place out!

Fantastic experience: Steve and Matt are great! I had a great experience working with them for the past 3 months. They are very receptive towards my schedule and hearing my goals. Through the months I was able to see a change in my fitness and health.

Fantastic experience: My first time experience was great! I went with a friend of mine who goes their couple times a week and joined her session. Her trainer Eric (not with a K) was super friendly and made the workout very fun, informative, and motivating as a first timer working with a trainer. Definitely would recommend this centre! I like the size of the space and how all the equipment is provided like leg bands. 10/10 would crab walk here again

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, great trainers, and great location

Fantastic experience: Joining this gym has been one of the best decisions I have ever made for myself! Kristi and Matt have done an excellent job at creating an inclusive, healthy environment for clients to share their goals and make the lifestyle changes needed to achieve them. I constantly tell them they are very blessed to have this set of trainers as it is your people who make you. I have never entered or left that gym without having a big greeting from Matt, seeing Kristi’s million dollar smile or having laughed my core out with Mikayla, Rob, Steve, Connor, Eric or Jamie. You can be sure to end your workout off with good company. I was introduced to Steve Williams (@stevedubyah) my favourite personal trainer at this gym, who changed the game for me in terms of my health and fitness goals. I have been working with him for over a year and have never regretted a single session (despite the complaining I do during sessions ). Steve has helped me lose 40 pounds and counting, his approach is fairly simple as he believes in substance not frills. He is an athlete and trains athletes for a living, if you are not an athlete do not worry Steve is excellent at making workouts fun all while giving you the push you need. He creates the best workout plans I have seen. He helped me burn fat, build muscle all while building my confidence making me stronger physically and mentally. I know Steve has a bright future ahead of him and will possibly end up training some of the finest hockey players, if you can get a chance to workout with him take it! I am appreciative of all of the other trainers I have worked with as every single one at this gym has incredible potential and skills, I got introduced to Muay Thai via Christian a Subject Matter Expert who even trained a world champion! If you are remotely interested into doing anything related to MMA talk to him! I also had the pleasure of working with Rob (@robbrowne25) who is the most sophisticated and knowledgeable trainer at the gym, he has a similar approach to Steve. Rob is an experienced professional and any opportunity to work with him should be taken, you will not regret it! Another trainer I am currently working with is Connor (@cds_training) who is a well rounded athlete, he is the glute master and has helped me obtain gains all while incorporating mobility workouts. Connor is a key trainer at this gym and I highly recommend him If you are thinking about the gym, give it a try as there is no contract or gym fee (you pay per session per trainer) so you can schedule sessions with different trainers to see who is the best fit for you, this flexibility will buy you the chance to test out the waters and commit to the right trainer.

Fantastic experience: Highland fitness is a great gym with hardworking trainers. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Matt for 5 years now. I find Highland Fitness to be a friendly but professional gym. My sessions have increased my strength and flexibility. As a senior, I think it is important to keep muscles strong to maintain mobility. I now try to do 3 sessions a week to maximize my benefits.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Highland Fitness since Nov 2021. I work with Matt, and love the flexible nature of our sessions. Matt not only works with me, but collaborates with the other health professionals I see to help me re-claim proper movement patterns, reduce pain in training, gain strength and improve my body composition. What I really love about Highland Fitness is their welcoming, community-centric vibes. It's grown so much since I started (they have classes now!) and I can't wait to see how it grows in the future. So happy that Highland Creek has this little gem.

Fantastic experience: I used to go to other bigger gyms and never got results. I felt intimidated and worried about judgement and afraid to ask questions. I found this perfect little gym in highland creek and I’ve been in love ever since. My trainer makes me feel comfortable and tailors my workouts perfectly. I have so much fun when I’m there and love the happy and friendly atmosphere. For the first time ever, I miss working out when I'm not there. If you’re looking for results and a fun atmosphere that feels like family, this is the place to be!

Fantastic experience: Kristi is a great coach. She assessed my fitness level and goals before designing customize training to suit me. Training sessions are challenging without overdoing it. I always feel good the next day because my body is responding but not in pain. She tweaks the movements so I have good form.

Fantastic experience: Kristi, head trainer, has been a constant and motivating force since before Covid. Her fresh, innovative and functionally targeted exercise routines have helped me with strength, balance and coordination. Her optimism and cheerful personality plus the bright and spacious facility I couldn’t ask for a more supportive environment

Fantastic experience: This is a great gym. The team of trainers are friendly & very knowledgeable. Our trainer Kristi keeps our sessions creative and challenging and is mindful of our needs. When I tore my meniscus Kristi managed to keep me coming to the gym & with her expertise she modified exercises to help me with my recovery. I highly recommend Highland Fitness.
