GoodLife Fitness St Catharines Bunting and Carlton

Expérience fantastique: Does people know this is goodlife premium？！This goodlife has a pool, hot tub, hot yoga room, and cardio and strength training areas separated? And a women’s only area! People should appreciate how good this is for the price. I pay the exact same price but the goodlife in my city is just a little bit bigger than the women’s only area. And if I want a gym with pool I’ll have to go to luxury gyms..

Expérience négative: TVs STILL not working? In November the satellite cords were “cut” and they hoped to have them fixed by Christmas. It is now nearing the end of February. Very embarrassing to be adding all these extra amenities to the club though half the gym is taped off with plastic wrap and no working tvs.

Expérience négative: EXTREMELY pushy personal trainers trying to make you sign up for the extra services and over priced. Gave me a very aggravating and uncomfortable experience.

Expérience fantastique: lots of high quality equipment and kris is a great pt, highly recommend !

Expérience négative: Overall, I like this gym.The trainers and staff are friendly, and the environment is good. However, the gym asks members to leave outdoor shoes at the entrance for cleanliness, but this area is not secure.My almost new Sorel Winter boots were taken, and a more worn, different style pair was left instead. I pay a high amount for the membership and personal training, yet when personal property goes missing, there is no accountability.If the gym is not responsible for stolen, swapped, or damaged items, this should be clearly stated on the sign at the shoe are. ( I fully understand that the gym is not responsible for items lost in the lockers rooms, which is why I always lock my locker.) Posting this as a factual warning for other members to be cautious.

Expérience négative: New Hyrox class might be the most inconsiderate thing the gym could’ve possibly put together. Runs at peak times and uses the entire turf for a maximum of 5 class participants. Individuals like myself can only come at 5pm. The turf area is huge part of routines, especially for rehab, mobility and cardio. The private training turf is perfectly suited for the class. Or split it right down the middle and allow other members to use 1 half. At peak hours, there can be upwards and 15 members using the area at once, while having regard for others by using a responsible amount of space. Somehow this class can’t do that with 5 people (which is a generous amount - there’s typically only 3/4 people in each 5pm class) Also the music is ridiculously loud. I don’t even mind the EDM music personally but with my own headphones at a loud level I can still hear the music where the old turf used to be. I’m not typically someone who writes reviews, but for the last 2 weeks I’ve been annoyed dealing with this and if you observe others members body language, you can tell they are too. I feel like this is an easy issue to fix. Splitting the space in 1/2 or using the PT section are very realistic solutions. If changes are made I’ll remember to delete this review

Expérience fantastique: We will provide all services.

Expérience positive: Invest in a better sauna for the guys. Other than that it's the best goodlife in Canada

Expérience négative: At 6:30 a.m. this morning, many members were starting their day and relying on a consistent morning routine. Instead, we were met with widespread disappointment due to loud music from a HYROX group class being held in the main gym area rather than a designated group fitness space. Members reasonably expect a quieter, focused environment during early these hours. This morning’s disruption undermined that experience and caused frustration among many members, myself included. Loyal members training during off-peak hours should not feel displaced. Today, it felt as though those members—the majority—came second to the HYROX class. Despite the foregoing, I hope management takes this feedback into consideration and reconsiders how early-morning group classes are scheduled so the broader membership can train comfortably.

Expérience positive: I love the variety this gym offers, but today, the ladies change room was absolutely filthy!!! Hair and garbage all over the floors, no soap in most of the dispensers at the sinks, and the toilet paper unaccessible in the toilets. Toilet paper all over the floors, just gross filth in every once of the change room. Very disappointing. Makes u wonder how clean the gym floor and equipment is. As the paper towel dispensers in the women's party of the gym were empty. So no way to wipe the machines down.Yet there seems to always be 10 people standing behind the front desk , doing nothing? The staff is very friendly always, love them and love the offerings, but please clean up the change room! It's gross. Zero excuse with the amount of staff in this place. Refill your soap and paper towels. Clean up!

Expérience négative: planning to cancel and come back to planet fitness soon No hot water? No parking? No machines available? Not enough towels? A plastic tarp for a roof? Disgusting showers, dirty bathroom? Old machines? Cold pool water? Get your act together, terrible business model and management Your cheaper competitors accross the street are doing much better than you.

Expérience négative: Showers have been cold for over a month now

Expérience positive: One of the biggest gym i ever visited! Super clean and a million tons of equipments. Staffs are friendly, totally worth for the money!

Expérience fantastique: Sue's RPM spin class is awesome ! She is very motivating, engaging and makes the class so much fun ! Her classes are by far, my favorite - she is the reason I continue to go to spin classes. Thanks for the fun AND the great workout Sue !

Expérience positive: I go to this gym with my wife. Not a bad gym, has everything you need. One of the few gyms in the city that has everything, unless you go to LA fitness in the falls or White Oaks. Change rooms could be a little cleaner but always a hit or miss. Has a lot of machines and then the squat racks / smith machines are all organized and tuck in one corner. Has studio and pool for classes.

Expérience fantastique: I can highly recommend, the new regymen hitt classes . It may look daunting! But it’s really, fulfilling and fun . Take your fitness to a new level . The instructors are amazing , knowledgeable and terrific coaches!!!

Expérience fantastique: Fantastic gym! Tons of amenities!

Expérience négative: Don’t believe the 24 hours. Many nights I have got there to it being closed and money lost for gas or uber UPDATE. -again closed for now reason this place is ridiculous and should not be able to advertise 24 hr service. They are not.

Expérience négative: You can't use all equipment even with max plan.

Expérience fantastique: Beautiful facility, Pool, lots of Weights, lots of Machines but 37+ $ Bi-weekly is quite steep, unfortunately out of my price range to Just starting. *Updated* Thanks for reaching out, perhaps later in my fitness journey, I'll sign up if attend more than 4-6 times a week. But I'm just starting out as of right now.

Expérience positive: great gym, and energy, just sucks that majority of the staff tend to go into the recovery room on their breaks and take up amenities that we’re paying for. Would love to be able to actually use what I intended to use.

Expérience fantastique: A session with Trainer June Centino was really helpful to get an insight how much my body needs proper care and a routine.. she was very keen on listening and understanding and helped to get an idea of how each exercise or stretch should be carefully executed. Thank you June, looking forward to the boot camp.

Expérience fantastique: I am impressed with June’s knowledge and her dedication to my results. This is my first time joining a gym and she made me feel comfortable from the very start and always takes the time to answer my questions even outside of our sessions. June built a plan that fits my goals and hectic schedule, she helps me feel more confident each time I come in. I also really enjoy her women’s bootcamp and meeting other women who share similar goals! I love that the gym has a women's section and a sauna. Overall, great experience at this gym and I am looking forward to trying out the Regymen class this week.

Expérience fantastique: One of the best GoodLife fitness gym’s even better than gyms in GTA

Expérience fantastique: Spacious with all the necessary equipments to have a really good workout. Staffs are super helpful and knowledgeable!

Expérience fantastique: Today I had my consultation with June, one of the personal trainers at GoodLife, and she was absolutely incredible. The knowledge she shared was so helpful, and it was clear how passionate she is about her work. She took the time to demonstrate proper exercise form, showed me different warm-up variations, and explained why each one is important. She was so professional, approachable, and genuinely invested in helping me to succeed and reach my goals. I could not recommend her enough to anyone considering personal training.

Expérience fantastique: I have been going to GoodLife for ten months and have a personal trainer by the name of June that is so knowledgeable and motivating that at the age of 67 I am working towards my first body building competition! She has helped me strengthen and gain mobility in a knee that had sustained an injury. June is extremely talented and I would highly recommend her if you are looking for an experienced personal trainer.

Expérience fantastique: 10000/10. Best gym in town.

Expérience positive: Good gym. Lots of machines, love the pool and hot tub. The hours are true 24/7. I do find too many members keeping their big bags on the gym floor. No big deal right? Well it becomes a tripping hazard, looks kinda sloppy and made me think the gym might be rampant with theft. They post deep cleaning in the men's change room asking members to use a smaller change room during the hours of 1:30am - 2:30am. I think that's great! Clean and sanitized daily and an alternate offered. BUT many members telling me there is no deep cleaning. This was confirmed when bandaids and litter were pointed out as being in the same spot untouched days later. Machines out of order seem to get fixed quickly; a cup holder without a bottom that I didn't notice (that needs repairing) caused an embarrassing moment when my Gatorade fell through and got on someone's duffle bag. That was an embarrassing moment that shouldn't have happened. This, and every Goodlife with saunas (but it was particularly noticable here) has to post better rules outlining proper hygiene/showering with soap and water before bathing. Colognes and scents in the sauna made the relaxing anxiety inducing - (lack of)respect and hygiene between bathers was shocking. This may seem picky, but for a very busy GoodLife and membership fees, it should be prestine. I pay an extra premium and it didn't feel served here. It's passable to pretty good. The actual weights, machines and gym itself was good to great, but the amenities and extras that GoodLife should be proud to offer was lacking here. Looking forward to another visit in the future to see if this was just the month I was visiting the area; but compared to the Kanata GoodLife, this was B level I'm sorry to say. Potential for improvement. Hope to amend to a better review in the future.

Expérience négative: Very aggressively trying to sell my wife personal trainer packages even after she explicitly said no. She just wants to go to the gym to stay active and they claimed “she didn’t have any goals and it was only a 1000 bucks a month”. Get real, dude. I’ll be convincing her to take her business elsewhere.

Expérience fantastique: June (personal trainer) is incredible! She is positive, supportive and exceptionally committed to achieving your personal goals. I was super hesitant at first going into the club, and by stroke of luck tripped on June. Her energy, spirit and obvious passion for her work is exactly what I needed and I hope others experience working with her. Five stars hardly says enough! Highly highly recommend.

Expérience positive: Probably the best GoodLife I’ve been to - especially after the recent renos. Massive facility with relatively new equipment and everything from a pool and hot tub to hot yoga and a spin room. Every GoodLife should be like this. Nice to see they didn’t remove any of the facilities Premier Fitness had before they went bankrupt.

Expérience fantastique: Good place

Expérience fantastique: I recently signed up with a professional trainer a couple of months ago. June. She has been incredibly wonderful. She has taken my goals to heart as I told her that I wanted to loose some of the weight I had gained earlier this year and I have managed to loose weight but in the process keeping on building muscle, improving performance, and physique. She has not only been a trainer to me but a friend as well that cheers me on every time I'm in the gym. Her training sessions I have consider as moments of self growth, confidence, and the chance to recollect myself from my every day routine. She has made me laugh, support, and has filled me with more inspiration every day. I cannot wait to continue my program with her and get closer to the super hero I want to become. Thank you!

Expérience négative: This Rating is not for the Gym facilities, it is for the the personal trainer Ryan Naar. About 2 months ago my husband and I were at the GoodLife gym in St.Catharine’s and we were approached by him. He asked if we wanted personal training and we declined, he then asked if we would like to receive weekly newsletters. We both gave our emails to him. I have been receiving those weekly newsletters every week, not my husband. I have unsubscribed every time and Ryan continues to send them. Today, I have received an Instagram notification from a personal account from Ryan Naar requesting to follow me. I have never given my full name, especially my new married name. No requests have been sent to my husband. This behaviour is unprofessional and creepy.

Expérience positive: Nice gym… it’s clean as far as I’ve seen (I’ve only been in the woman’s only area) I have to say though it’s ALWAYS packed. Especially the woman’s area. Given it’s the only GoodLife in the Niagara region…. I’ve went at many different times (9am,10,11,12,1pm, 12-1am) and it seems to only be NOT busy at 12-1am ‍‍‍ I can’t imagine what it’s like at peak times (3-8pm)…

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been visiting GoodLife this branch for the past two nights, and I had the pleasure of meeting trainer Dan. From the moment we spoke, he was incredibly friendly, approachable, and genuinely eager to help. He went out of his way to help me through my training that really made a difference. His positive energy and professionalism made my workout experience so much better. Trainers like Dan are the reason people feel motivated to come back he truly cares about helping members succeed. Highly recommend training with him!

Expérience fantastique: By far the best Good Life I’ve ever been to this is like a flagship so much room worked out so many different areas, such a huge diversity of machines, free weights super clean simply amazing place to work out! Wish I lived in Saint Catherine’s just to work out at this Good Life

Expérience fantastique: Fantastic gym. Clean, tons of machines, great class offerings…for me it’s 100% the best option in the region at this price point.

Expérience fantastique: The cleanest gym around, friendly staff and now newly renovated!

Expérience fantastique: One of the best Goodlife locations I have been to with amenities such as sauna, pool, hot tub, fitness classes, hot yoga, special massage chairs and hydro-massage. Always generally clean with a good mix of people with the goal of getting fit / staying fit and healthy. The location is huge and has been renovated and expanded widely since the Fit4less next door closed.

Expérience fantastique: Great place , clean and friendly stuff.

Expérience fantastique: Goodlife Team, I would like to express a heartfelt thank you that I was paired with such a phenomenal trainer over the past six months. As I close this chapter of our training journey, I’m honestly overwhelmed with gratitude. These past six months with June have meant more to me than words can fully express. What started as a goal to lose weight after giving birth, became a journey of healing. And June was there for all of it. Postpartum was a tender, vulnerable season for me. I wasn’t just trying to feel strong again; I was trying to find myself again. She didn’t just help me rebuild my body. She helped me reconnect with who I am beneath the fatigue, the doubts, and the changes. June showed me support, patience, and encouragement at a time when I truly needed it. Our sessions became more than workouts. They became safe spaces where I could breathe, release, and feel seen. June reminded me that I was still capable, still powerful, and still me, even as I adjusted to this new season of life. I’ll never forget the way June showed up. Not just as a trainer, but as a friend. She met me with compassion on the hard days and cheered me on through every win, no matter how small. I didn’t just get stronger—I healed. And I couldn’t have done it without her. I was placed with someone who didn't just train me. She walked with me through one of the most transformative seasons of my life. My trainer became a steady source of strength, motivation, and even friendship. I'm genuinely so grateful. I want to thank June for how she showed up for me. Not just with workouts and plans, but with kindness, encouragement and genuine care. It's hard to express how much this experience has changed me, but I know this: I'm leaving this journey not just healthier, but more confident, motivated, and proud of how far I've come — and that's because of her.

Expérience fantastique: We visited GoodLife Fitness today for the teen summer program and the experience was absolutely wonderful. The staff was so welcoming and kind from the moment we walked in. Stephanie gave us a full tour of the gym and explained everything clearly. She was patient, friendly, and made my daughter feel completely comfortable. At the front desk, Bianca was also amazing. She explained all the details of the program so well and answered all of our questions with a smile. Thank you to the team for making our first visit such a positive one. My daughter is excited to start her fitness journey here this summer.

Expérience positive: The gym is great and all but little too expensive I hope they could reduce the price

Expérience fantastique: Best place I never visited

Expérience fantastique: Great gym with friendly staff, for trainer Brad!

Expérience fantastique: This place is magnificent Highest end gear, you could imagine absolutely beautifully kept gym Change rooms are always clean Showers are always clean And all the staff is just vibrant I go daily and the highlight is working out, but one of the best things is walking through the door and seeing the smiles on everybody in a warm greeting It’s a really really nice gym and a great atmosphere so I don’t know how anybody could leave this less than five stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Expérience positive: I wish I brought my swimming trunks , the pool looks amazing. The photos online do not do it justice. Lots of cardio equipment but the turf and weight area are very small.

Expérience fantastique: I was away from this gym for a year. Just returned back. The staff is friendly, and welcoming. facility is clean. many reasons to stay!

Expérience fantastique: Really enjoy this good life location. I primarily use the pool, sauna, and hydro pool. The exercise areas also seem great, looking to try out the turf area.

Expérience positive: Decent sized gym. Only gripe is that Weightroom equipment/machines are close to each other. During busy times, it makes the place feel extra crowded.

Expérience négative: I attended the Yin Yoga class at 6 PM on Thursday, but the experience wasn’t great. The instructor was on her phone the entire time and even started telling jokes about her dog in the middle of the session. It completely ruined the atmosphere.

Expérience positive: I’ve been a member here for years - they updated the women’s section which is nice as the equipment was always broken & they seem to have updated most cardio machines. I’ve been going back and fourth whether to make a review for a long time now - My biggest complaint that is getting unbearably frustrating is these personal trainers taking up several machines and space where others are trying to work out. There is a dedicated area for personal training, yet they use the women’s section which is already small with limited space . With one lack of space and using several machines at a time, having their belongings spread out, it really limits others. It’s interesting the trainers seem to have no etiquette & will come within metres of where you are working, almost feels to get you out of the space threat they may need. I feel like this needs to be reviewed & use the dedicated personal training area, as the rest of the public is unable to use that area. The tri pod recording is also another annoyance, people bringing their tri pods during busy hours when others are in the shot, taking up space and people’s comfortability. Besides these issues it is a nice gym, and with the new renovations, and equipment. Hours are good. I do know the issues mentioned really have detoured a few people I know.

Expérience fantastique: Great location, jacuzzi, sauna, massage chairs etc, spacious gym, 24 hours!

Expérience négative: honestly, I came to the gym and was very excited to start my fitness journey. I was convinced by Javy to do The personal training session with successions that came up to almost about $300. I had my personal trainer June who is honestly a sweetheart, but all she would do is talk about JB her boyfriend, the manager who works there. Conflict of interest you would think right? I got really sick with pneumonia and bronchitis and I have decided to move back home because I need support to feel well. I asked June if I could get a refund and she told me to contact our manager Kim Jory. Kim said that there was nothing she could do as this was out of her hands and they do not offer refunds. She then also wanted to explain to me that I only had one session left after I was told I had two and then she explained to me that one of my sessions were cancelled and got a late charge to them because I did not show up for it. I never got of call from my trainer saying hey, are you coming into the group into a session today or anything like that? She just decided to cancel my thing which is very upsetting. long story short, I will be disputing the charging with my bank because this is totally unacceptable. I will not be attending those two sessions because I am literally sick and have been hospitalized. This gym does not care about your health or your well-being. They only care about their selves, their money, and clearly the relationship happening behind closed doors.

Expérience fantastique: Lovely stuff and beautiful members specially girls

Expérience fantastique: Great place!

Expérience fantastique: Friendly staff

Expérience négative: Family day Monday the gym was supposed to open at 7am. We along with multiple other people waited in our car for an hour until 8am and the gym never opened. I understand that people call in sick but at some point shouldn’t it be managements responsibility to make sure the club opens? Especially when the hours are already altered for a later start. We drive from out of town to attend this gym and this was hugely disappointing from staff and management.

Expérience fantastique: Lots of space, and has all the equipment needed

Expérience fantastique: I spent most of my time in the recovery room, i have never felt so relaxed, i saw jv and trevor so professionaly showing potential new members around, very professional and informative, when i was out on floor i loved seeing how engaged katherine was in making sure the club was clean...very plesant! Great overall experience...top notch!

Expérience fantastique: The RPM classes Monday and Wednesday evenings with instructor Sue are fantastic. The energy and the fun she brings to the class is amazing while getting a great workout.

Expérience fantastique: This gym has everything to achieve your fitness goals! I can't say enough great things about Sue and her incredible RPM class! From the very first session, I was hooked. Sue’s energy, motivation, and expertise have completely transformed my fitness journey. Her classes push me to new limits while making every ride fun and exhilarating. She knows exactly how to challenge you while keeping the class uplifting and inspiring. All thanks to Sue’s encouragement and engaging coaching style that my endurance has improved. I’m so grateful to have found this amazing class and such a dedicated instructor. If you’re looking high-energy, results-driven workout, Sue’s RPM (indoor cycling) session is a must-try! ‍♀️

Expérience négative: Came to GoodLife to seek information on their prices and other fees. When I asked the front desk I was told to wait. After waiting i was told someone will come out soon. After waiting some more another individual came in and asked the same question to the same person and for some reason they started talking about membership prices etc etc!! So why am I standing there having my time wasted waiting for my questions to be answered when I could’ve been taken care of FIRST!! I said forget this and walked out. Possibly a good move considering I witnessed how I’m treated before signing all their membership agreements. Business taken elsewhere…………….

Expérience fantastique: Perfect! The pool is beautiful and largely set with a wading section for new swimmers. The jacuzzi jets are just right! This location has recently renovated and made a recovery room! It is a piece of heaven for me who swims and enjoys the massage chairs in the recovery room. It is my way of living with arthritis; how I wish this gym was closer to my everyday grind. Staff are lovely here and I just love it here ❤️

Expérience fantastique: Best gym around (Only my personal opinion) and I've been working hard to get one more kick at the can and find a girlfriend.

Expérience négative: Garbage place full of liars. Trying to scam you with calls your family has joined.

Expérience fantastique: I want to make a shout out to Dawn Oscvirk Parliament and her fun, energetic, challenging workouts!! Ive been going to her classes for many years starting in NF then following her to St. Catharines. Dawn knows all the members in her class and makes a point of chatting it up and making it a more personal experience. She's helpful if you have any questions and challenges you to always do your best!!!!! From beginner to a lifer, you will be in good hands!!!!

Expérience positive: Nicest gym in the region by far! Staff is friendly and the gym has a pool, recovery room and they have new additions coming soon! However, if a sauna is one of your main concerns, I recommend staying away from GoodLife! I get chilly in their sauna as it rarely passes 70 degrees due to the glass door design. It is often left inoperable as members try to up the heat by blocking the door cracks with towels. This has been an ongoing issue for years and doubt it will ever get an upgrade. World gym has a far superior sauna that easily reaches 80+ degrees and they have near same weight equipment at a fraction of the price. Apart from that, great place to enjoy a workout!

Expérience fantastique: I had a great experience in Dawn’s body pump class. Dawn was very motivational and fun. I am looking forward to the core class now.

Expérience fantastique: I love my sessions with my personal trainer Rooz, I been training with him for 18 months and I keep on getting stronger and motivated, I compliment my workouts with regular classes. The instructor guide us and encourage us to do our best and push our limits. I worked out with Dawn for 10 years and she has taught me to challenge myself through her teaching. She teaches pump class and Core previous also taught spin . Her voice is friendly vibrant and she is a great example of determination , self confidence .Dawn empowers the class and makes it fun Thank you to all instructors of pump core and spin The gym is clean tidy and organized. The towel always clean

Expérience fantastique: Dawn is an amazing instructor always encouraging, supportive and professional. She truly is an inspiration and very appreciative to what she brings to having a Good Life!

Expérience fantastique: Love this gym! Great facilities, the pool and hot tub is a great place to unwind after a body pump class. I absolutely loved the trainer Dawn P, she really helped me get back into workouts and made me feel strong and capable again.

Expérience fantastique: Excellent gym and I especially love my mornings with Dawn at bodypump. It’s a perfect blend of awareness how not to get injured and still pushing myself to achieve all I can, I find Dawn to instruct that so well. Follow that with a swim and sauna and it’s a great day

Expérience positive: Could be cleaner, best gym in Niagara at their price point though.

Expérience fantastique: Amazing gym and great staff! The facilities are always so clean thanks to the Colombian family that is there every single morning. They keep the place spotless but besides from the great job they do work wise, they are the friendliest people and make a 3am workout all the better. Jimmy is always cheering me on which motivates me to lift heavier. 10/10 both as cleaning professionals and human beings!

Expérience positive: Overall, my experience has been really good. I love the gym itself, it's clean everyone is friendly. However, I do not recommend booking with their personal trainers. Please think extremely carefully before booking with Kari. If you want to be pushed past your limits and that's what you're going for great good for you, kudos. I have 0 fitness goal, i do not want a rock hard body. I go to the gym for mental health. When i explained to Kari that I have no fitness goal, that my only goal is to come to the gym consistently everyday. Whether that's to actually workout or to just to use the fun stuff, hot sauna, jacuzzi, the pool, etc. I explained to Kari that I have really bad knees, i hurt them earlier that week, Doing the stairmaster. After a 45 minute conversation about how i'm not athletic, i don't want to be athletic, i wouldn't mind knowing how to use some of the machines properly. She then took me over to training area, had me do 2 sets of 12. For every exercise. That included : lunges, squat, inclined push ups, running on a inclined treadmill. Throwing a 15 lbs ball around. After coming down from the treadmill after a minute in a half. I'm out of breath and trying to take a minute, In this time she jokes about how she made her last client throw up. She explained to me that we should be taking 60 second break in between sets. But would only give me maybe 10. So after working me extremely hard, making jokes about how she made her last one, throw up. Pushing me past my limits. Which before I say what i'm about to say, I understand that a fitness trainer is meant, to sometimes push you beyond what you're capable of. A fitness trainer is someone who shows you how to do workouts, In order to get the body or the results that you would like. My appointment was December 20th. I was immobile and unable to stop crying due to the pain until December 24th I have two small children, it was christmas, i had obligations to make that christmas for my two small children. By christmas I was distraught, i could barely walk up-and-down my stairs, i couldn't sit on the toilet without help. I was completely immobilized. Now I didn't want to make a post because I understand a part of this is just her job... But I did not go in there. Asking for a rock hard body, asking for an extreme workout, asking for unrealistic expectations. My only goal is to go to the gym and be there everyday. On the following monday December 23rd I grounded up as much energy as I could to go and sit in the jacuzzi, and the hot sauna and tried to recover on the massage beds. Which I will say helped so much, i was finally able to stop crying from how much pain I was in. I felt like my christmas was a complete disaster Because I was in so much pain. After talking to many family members, they all expressed that I should be sharing my experience with Kari. Because if she makes jokes about making her last client, throw up. I am not the only person who she is abusing in her position. Personally, i'm gonna take some time to think if I really want to go back to this specific goodlife. There's one over in grimsby I'd be more than willing to drive to. Even though I live on one block away from THIS GYM. AND THIS IS WHY I SIGNED UP FOR THIS GYM. BUT NOW I FEEL USED AND ABUSED. IF YOU'RE GOING TO BOOK WITH A PERSONAL TRAINER A) dont book with Kari. B) you can Google ANYTHING... You don't need someone to push you past your limits. And not let you have the proper break in-between sets and ALSO not let you drink water. If you're just starting out and you're really just trying to get a feel for things. Ask other people at the gym, everyone whom i've had to ask for help has been extremely helpful, extremely friendly and extremely understanding. Or Google it! YouTube has videos! Do not pay to have someone abuse you. I finally am able to walk up and down the stairs today (decemeber 31st) It's taken me almost 2 weeks to recover from one session. Please Keep this in mind when booking for a personal trainer.

Expérience fantastique: Best gym this side of the province .

Expérience fantastique: Clean facility, great organization, offers everything included with the ultimate membership.

Expérience fantastique: Personal training. Tom B. Tom is very knowledgeable and able to tailor a program for many situations ie older clients with specific medical histories or a client looking to compete in body building shows. He can cover every need. On a personal note he was a good humoured socially adept individual. The gym itself I found well run clean. The reception staff alway bright and cheery.

Expérience fantastique: Good gym, always clean and well kept. Personal trainer Tom is a good professional and he has helped me change my mentality towards fitness and nutrition and I'm seeing the difference in my body. Always is friendly and able to adjust according to my schedule.

Expérience fantastique: Place is very clean. All family from Colombia works there. Thanks to them . Very friendly people .

Expérience négative: As a member of GoodLife Fitness, I've experienced a range of services and facilities that promise a premium fitness experience. However, after spending some time at the gym, I feel compelled to share my concerns regarding several key issues that impact the overall environment and member satisfaction. From maintenance delays to safety hazards, there are areas in dire need of attention. Here’s an overview of the pressing concerns that need to be addressed to enhance the experience for all members. Key Concerns: 1. Maintenance Issues: - Slow response to problems, insufficient follow-up from GM Derek. 2. Wi-Fi Access: - Need for reliable Wi-Fi for members, correlating with premium fees. 3. Safety Concerns: - Urgent repairs needed, hazardous equipment locations, unaddressed broken equipment. 4.

Expérience négative: This gym, specifically Kim the manager for personal training, has refused to cancel and reimburse my father who has a BRAIN TUMOUR for his personal training sessions that he can’t use. On top they want to charge him an additional $179 for “early cancellation”. Does it count as early cancellation when you have an incurable brain tumour??? Since I am not able to respond to the reply “from the owner” let me say I HAVE called that number already and was told there was nothing they could do. In fact the person I spoke with agreed with me that this company is disgusting since they wouldn’t let her help me after she contacted the location.

Expérience négative: Not an actual 24/7 Gym, recent closures and holiday hours don’t align with most 24/7 models, and notification of change of hours is only Done on their message “Messageboard” in the gym instead of email notification, which I find personally frustrating. Considering I receive dozens of emails a month, trying to get me to sign up for a personal trainer. On the positive it is a clean facility.

Expérience fantastique: Love it there I got my membership there over the summer for free since Im 13 and about 2 weeks ago i got the essential membership the staff are really nice they always greet me when i walk in and one day i was doing improper form on deadlift and one of the staff came over and pointed it out to me and showed me proper form which is so nice the only downside is its pretty expensive but its worth the price there are hot yoga rooms specialized classes the pool personal trainers and a recovery room all in all its very worth it 11/10

Expérience négative: They force you to use direct deposit banking, there is no option to use a traditional credit card. They do this to ensure they get paid as long as possible and the cancelation process is as complex as possible. Go to White Oaks instead, this gym is a joke.

Expérience fantastique: For my limite living time in St Catharines, GoodLife Fitness and Personal Trainer Aric is most impressive memories for me. Aric is so much professional and not like other coaches that would like you always finish those sessions ASAP and get some more but he always train in a patient way but still in a efficiency way to make you achieve your goal in a better way. I lost my weight 10 kg in one and half months with Aric's help.

Expérience fantastique: Nice gym, clean & kind staff.. very busy tho and has to wait for a lot of the machines

Expérience négative: overall pretty decent gym. decent quality equipment, amenities and is pretty clean. however it is pretty disappointing when you pay 1000+ annually for a membership when all the personal trainers are using all the equipment and multiple at a time despite having a designated pt sections regular members dont have access to. if we can access their section, they should not be entitled to ours.

Expérience fantastique: Amazing

Expérience fantastique: Best Fitness Club in Canada

Expérience fantastique: The only GoodLife in the Niagara region. Good deal.

Expérience positive: I think is the best gym in the region. The pool is amazing

Expérience fantastique: Amazing facility. The best group classes. Love the pool, hot tub and sauna! I also highly recommend my PT Kanan Patel. She’s the best personal trainer I’ve ever had. So knowledgeable and keeps me on track. Highly recommend.

Expérience fantastique: The best gym I have had the pleasure of having a membership at. Always clean and well kept. Staff are extremely kind and helpful. Every patron is respectful and all weights are where they should be. I love the sauna and am excited to try out some group classes down the road once I build up some confidence. All in all 10/10

Expérience négative: Used to love this gym. Unfortunately the management proves to be scummy in how they approach the business. Whether it’s treating staff poorly (getting staff to do personal errands, having a bad day and taking it out on staff or members) , being non responsive to complaints (i.e. the continuous debacle with the pool or sauna), or more recently, not allowing old staff (in good standing!) to participate in charity events, management continues to prove they don’t care about customer service and appropriate leadership. I have witnessed on multiple occasions management ignoring complaints of male maintenance being in the women’s only section without letting members know (aka if you have any religious or personal reason to work in this area, prepare to be ignored). I continue to be disappointed in the service aspect of this gym, despite it being one of the cleanest corporate gyms in the area. Corporate needs to revisit how Kim specifically approaches conflict, as I have heard many times outside of my own experience how little she seems to care in being professional and courteous to others.

Expérience fantastique: Best gym ever. Everyone that works there always greets you and is cheerful and helpful. If I could give it 6 stars I would.

Expérience négative: These guys are SCAMMERS ! I had a membership I paused it for a couple months ,they told me if I didn’t use it MY ACCOUNT WOULD BE CANCELLED .So I never bothered going to look at my emails seeing that they said they would cancel my account . I payed for my membership for the full year in advance so l called head office they told me that they can’t do anything about it. SO I LOOSE MY MONEY !! They told me they will ONLY CALL YOU IF OWE THEM MONEY !! WHAT A SCAM . Be VERY careful with these guys !!!
