GoodLife Fitness North York Yonge and Finch

Expérience négative: Two days ago, I visited this gym for the second time. After signing up for classes to keep my body active, I was offered a free session with a personal trainer. This was my second experience talking to a personal trainer at this gym. Unfortunately, both experiences left me feeling uncomfortable because the main goal seemed to be encouraging me to buy personal training packages. Instead, what I received was a large dose of body shaming and food shaming. Despite being at my ideal weight—and even three kilograms under it—I was repeatedly told I needed to lose weight. Both trainers emphasized that I should use certain machines to “enhance my glute size” because, apparently, this is something “very important” for women. I’m writing this review to highlight a few points: 1. Body shaming should never be part of this gym’s approach. There are women with higher body weights who have strong muscles, healthy bones, and overall good health. They shouldn’t be made to feel ashamed of their bodies. Upgrade your information about sexism and body shaming! This is 2024!!! 2. Food shaming is outdated and harmful. Telling someone to feel guilty about eating is based on flawed psychology. Eating a slice of cake or ice cream occasionally doesn’t harm the body, but living with guilt and shame over every bite certainly does. 3. Not all women are obsessed with enhancing their glute/hip size. The trainers I spoke with need to understand that this kind of assumption is offensive and inaccurate. Recommending machines with the claim that “all women want this” is wrong and unprofessional. I hope this feedback helps the gym reconsider its approach, as these experiences were disappointing and left a negative impression.

Expérience négative: The Yonge and Finch location has significant issues with cleanliness and air quality, compounded by the poor state of the ventilation system. Unfortunately, this results in an unpleasant atmosphere, as some individuals visiting the location exhibit strong odors. Addressing the ventilation and overall maintenance would greatly improve the experience for everyone. This approach keeps it critical but tactful. Let me know if you’d like further adjustments!

Expérience fantastique: Always welcoming and great help from the front desk and all staff in this location . Lillian, Isgander, and Joseph were absolutely amazing and helpful. Keep up guys

Expérience fantastique: Lucy runs the BEST boot camp class, definitely worth checking out if you want to get your sweat on

Expérience négative: Review: 1 Star I’ve been a member of GoodLife Fitness for quite a while, but the air conditioning (AC) has not been working properly for almost a year now, and it’s become unbearable to exercise in such a hot environment. It gets way too hot and stuffy inside, making it uncomfortable and even dangerous for members trying to work out. For the amount we pay for membership, we deserve a comfortable and safe environment to exercise in. Very disappointing!

Expérience fantastique: I have training with Ajay for two years. he’s an excellent trainer and really pay attention to my posture during training. I highly recommend him.

Expérience fantastique: I’m almost at the end of my personal training program, and I’m super happy with the progress! Not just lifting more but learning the right form too. Big shout-out to my trainer Ayhan—he always goes above and beyond. He even made his own app so each client gets their own account to track progress, which has been so helpful. Plus, he’s super friendly, hardworking, and really knows his stuff. If you’re thinking about getting a trainer, definitely reach out to him! Gym is spacious, all the equipment you need.

Expérience fantastique: George is an amazing pt. Def recommend training with him!

Expérience fantastique: I like this gym specifically and have been going to this location for a while even though it’s not as convenient to get to as other locations because the facilities are clean, staff are always helpful and friendly, most class instructors lead in a motivating fun way, and the women’s change room recently renovated the sauna In addition to all of that I finally decided to invest in training to progress toward personal goals I could never quite reach sustainably myself. My outlook and how I approach my health journey has been changing for the better because of my trainer, George. In a short period of time he has managed to train me in a way that is encouraging, caring, skillful, and fun. As a result I’ve gotten stronger, I look and feel better, my posture has improved, I am without a doubt healthier and making better choices outside of the gym too, and have even managed to gain more mobility and rid myself of some chronic pain that I had been arrested to for years because I’ve started training with him. I’d say given all the skills, experience, and knowledge he has, he’s been able to put me on a path to understand how to attain my goals in a sustainable and delightful way. I do realize it is my ass doing the heavy lifting and gym work outs but from the get go he pointed me towards success by trying to understand what I needed, where I was at, what I wanted, and from there at every session provided me with skills and guidance to get me closer to my fitness and health goals. I’ve learned a lot from him and have grown more confident in my abilities training because he knows exactly what I should focus on to help me improve and when. He genuinely does his best to be prepared and to help me every session, also cares enough to equip me with the knowledge I’m missing too. Even on busy gym days when equipment/machines are being used by others or on days when I feel blah, he’ll have the know how to be flexible and improvise alternative workouts to make my time at the gym actually feel fruitful, like I had accomplished a proper workout with good form and challenging but still enjoyable. On this new fitness path I’m on, I covet my time at the gym and that’s a testament to how much I really enjoy training now, thanks to George. Outside of being knowledgeable, punctual, aware, encouraging, and communicative, he cares enough to welcome feedback and is professional yet light hearted—which helps on days when life responsibilities have me down and all I want to do is sit around and eat a plate of nachos. All this to say, he’s been an excellent coach and could do a lot to actually help anyone reach their fitness goals at any level.. as long as you’re willing to put in the work and eat enough protein

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been training with Ajay at Goodlife Fitness in Finch for a few months, and the experience has been amazing! Ajay is incredibly knowledgeable, motivating, and attentive to my fitness goals. Every session is challenging yet enjoyable, and I’ve seen great progress in both my strength and overall fitness. Whether you're a beginner or more experienced, Ajay tailors the workouts to your needs, ensuring you feel confident and supported. If you're looking for a dedicated and professional trainer who will push you to your best, I highly recommend Ajay!

Expérience fantastique: I can’t emphasize enough how professional and precise Ayhan is. He significantly improved my frozen shoulder issue. The movement in my right arm was restricted, but I felt noticeable positive changes with each session, and the pain in my arm disappeared. Ayhan is not only meticulous in his work as a personal trainer but also highly professional, positive, and respectful in his behavior. Throughout all the sessions I had with him, he was very attentive—not only to my right arm but also to my posture and muscle strengthening. I believe the exercises he gave me even improved my walking and standing posture.

Expérience fantastique: George has been an excellent personal trainer. Before I met him, I had to quit weightlifting at the gym due to back and neck injuries. Now, thanks to George’s skills and well-designed workout program, I’m improving and feeling much better. My mornings are brighter, and I feel great!

Expérience fantastique: Great Goodlife location. Personal training program is going very well, my trainer Ajay is very accommodating, professional and helped me reach my goals, really appreciate his hardwork!!

Expérience fantastique: I’ve had George as my PT for 5 weeks - super friendly, really quick to respond and flexible. He’s attentive to answer any question you have and helped me get over my nervousness in the gym as a newbie . He’s built a great foundation in knowledge and base strength that I’ll be able to continue to build by myself even when the PT sessions end - definitely recommend George if you’re looking for a trainer!

Expérience fantastique: I can’t express enough how transformative my experience with Mui has been. From the very first session, it was clear that her passion for fitness and helping others is truly unparalleled. She doesn't just go through the motions; she genuinely cares about each client's journey, making every workout feel personal and tailored to my unique goals and strengths/weakness. One of the standout qualities of Mui is her kindness. No matter how challenging the workout, she always greets with encouraging words. This friendly demeanor creates an environment where I feel comfortable pushing my limits. I’ve never felt judged or overwhelmed—only supported and highly inspired. Patience is another virtue that Mui embodies. she takes the time to explain each exercise, ensuring I understand the proper form and technique. Whenever I hit a plateau or struggle, Mui remains calm and encourages me to keep trying, reminding me that progress takes time. This approach has not only improved my physical fitness but has also fostered a deeper mental resilience. What truly sets Mui apart is her motivational spirit. She has a remarkable ability to push me beyond what I thought I was capable of, instilling a sense of belief in myself that I never had before. Each session leaves me feeling absolutely accomplished and excited for what’s to come. In just a few months, my life has changed in ways I never expected. I’m not only stronger physically, but I’ve also developed a healthier mindset and a newfound love for myself. I owe so much of this progress to Mui. I feel that she genuinely cares about my success.

Expérience fantastique: I have taken Sunday 8 AM Bodystep class at this club for a few months, and happily found out how it has become easier for me to walk up and down stairs at home. Natalie is an amazing instructor and a great inspiring role model on my fitness journey. I am so grateful for the classes she gives us.

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been working with George for a while now, and I can’t say enough good things about him! His programs are truly top-notch and perfectly tailored to my goals. From the first session, he took the time to understand what I wanted to achieve and designed a plan that fits my needs and constantly challenging me to push my limits. If you want a trainer who truly cares and creates effective programs, George is the one. I've seen great results and can't wait for what’s next!

Expérience fantastique: George is an awesome trainer! He is very personable and knowledgeable. His infectious optimism makes exercise fun.You are patient, friendly and encouraging. I may never love working out, but you make the experience much more enjoyable. Thank you for helping me get into a new and healthier lifestyle!

Expérience positive: Air conditioning is not working there. It's very hot. The treadmill fans are not working.

Expérience fantastique: Thank to Ghazel :-) She's very kind and beautiful. I've had trouble registering many times but she was handled it very well so now I'm working out well in the Good Life thanks to her.

Expérience fantastique: Jin Park is an excellent motivator and a trainer with extensive knowledge of nutrition. Thanks to his training, I could feel a stronger pump in my muscles, my posture improved, and I noticed rapid muscle growth. I am grateful for his knowledge and dedication.

Expérience positive: The gym facilities are okay, but some of the staff really are the best part. I trained with Personal Trainer Mui Tang for almost a year and it was a great experience. She is incredibly knowledgeable and a great motivator for days when you're not feeling your best. Training with Mui really has changed the way I look at exercising and has made me feel stronger and better with my body! It's certainly worth it!

Expérience négative: Okay, but gym is always overcrowded. Even at 10 p.m. all the equipment will be hogged, making workouts take several times longer than they should.

Expérience fantastique: I was there to get some general information about gym and Joseph there was of great help. He was aware of what he's doing and answered all my questions. A very good experience.

Expérience fantastique: The variety of of machines and equipment available at the gym really enhances my training experience and helps keep things fresh. And I really happy to have Maral as my personal trainer, she has been incredibly motivating, professional, and attentive to my fitness goals. Her positive attitude and encouragement make every workout enjoyable! I am really grateful to have met her and I am excited about next sessions

Expérience fantastique: I just want to give a shoutout to Joseph at GoodLife on Young and Finch. He’s always funny and makes the gym a lot more enjoyable. On top of that, he gets things done quickly and efficiently.

Expérience fantastique: Hamed is my number one go-to trainer when it comes to professional training. You'll be astounded by how hard he tries to keep himself up-to-date and implement his knowledge into helping his clients reach their goals. I came there with a horrible pain in my knee and back but with his support, the pain vanished in less than a month. Having such responsible, approachable and understanding trainer in this gym is a blessing. With his presence, this location is highly recommended.

Expérience fantastique: I had my program training with Roud and I wanna say that Im really happy with the results it was just two months but I seen my changes pretty fast. He cares about my position when I was training always were enthusiastic given me so many advices and bringing me motivation too was a great job

Expérience positive: I like the zumba class and the location. But feels a bit crowded in the gym. It also need to go around ups and downs to get to washrooms and classrooms etc.

Expérience fantastique: The staff are so nice and encouraging. Would definitely recommend this gym to all people who are looking for a fitness club, it's worth the prices. My mom and I just literally enjoyed our 1st gym sessions.

Expérience positive: been going this gym for about a year now and it’s really great. There’s great number of different machines and the staff are friendly. Tons of cardio options as well. Changing room is decent, although the ceiling hasn’t been repaired since I started going here. My other complaint would be having only one Pec Deck and Smith Machine, as I feel like they’re the staple. Overall, it’s a great gym for an experienced lifter like me.

Expérience fantastique: Lillian is so sweet , she made me feel so relaxed with her nice energy after the hard workout that I had . David and Joseph was so helpful as well

Expérience fantastique: Signed up today with this location. Had a really positive experience. MJ (Marinel) was super helpful. Made sure all my questions were addressed, signed me up for free assessment, and I also received 3 free 'hot yoga' trial sessions with my new membership. Thank you, MJ and the staff at GL - Yonge and Finch. I look forward to working out at your facility!

Expérience fantastique: Been going to this gym for 2 years. Love the staff and trainers . Very respectful and always looking to help the members. Special shout out to Joseph that works at the front has been welcoming and always performs his duties to the best possible standards and always keeps the members motivated to come to gym everyday.

Expérience négative: My experience with this location of goodlife, as well as the organisation as a whole, has been very bad I enrolled in the personal trainer program. While the trainers are very helpful, the management/administration is horrible. I canceled my personal trainer program for personal reasons. There were about 13 paid sessions which were pending, and after cancelation, only 3 were left. Here is the sequence of events First, the FM first gave me incorrect information during cancelation, and I got overcharged. For that, I wrote to the FM and in response, he just responded that he cant help. I had a chat online with one of the associates, who was somewhat helpful in clarifying the details after almost 30 mins of chat, wherein I shared the pdf of email communications with the FM. I eventually got the pending amount credited back, when I visited the center and inquired. Second, all my pending sessions, which I paid for, and verified during cancelation (about 10 amounting to 700 CAD) just vanished after cancelation. I reached out to the FM again, the same response - I cant help, contact head office. I contacted online agent, who responded pretty quickly that they cant help, and its handled by the center. When I provided the email pdf of communications by FM asking me to contact headoffice, the agent pretty adamantly chose to not read it, and kept asking me to forward the email to the customer service. When I did, and also requested to read the pdf I attached, the agent pushed back saying that another associate will get back once verified. From this kind of experience, you can easily judge without a doubt that this center is very unfriendly if you have some issues. At the same time, the goodlife fitness corporate is also no good, as there isnt any hope there to get back my 700 CAD. So, my recommendations- think twice before enrolling. They would be very friendly during enrolling but once you are in, its over. I wish there was a 0 star.

Expérience fantastique: I had an issue with billing on my account and Lillian at the front desk was exceptionally helpful and courteous. In an age where there’s fine print everywhere and everything is a recurring fee, Lillian’s understanding and delicate care of my situation alone makes this membership worth it. Goodlife Yonge and Finch, not just a gym when you have fantastic people like her working here.

Expérience fantastique: I wish I could give more stars. Joseph pleasantly surprised me with the friendliness and eagerness to assist. Clean and well organized, making it easy to navigate

Expérience fantastique: Amazing yoga teacher Luda. The gym isn't great and is a bit of a dungeon. But Luda the yoga teacher is a gem.

Expérience fantastique: I checked this place out a few days ago and the gentleman at the front desk, Joseph, was super helpful. He was very patient, respectful, knowledgeable, professional and brithghtened my day with his smile and greatcustomerservice. I recommend this place and kudos to Joseph and the rest of the staff for doing a great job.

Expérience fantastique: I started my journey with personal training program at this location. Gym is good! Staff is helpful. Special shoutout to my personal trainer Roud. I have been training with him from almost 4 months now and counting! He is very professional! He has been great about sharing his knowledge of exercises, nutrition habits, stress management and much more. If anyone looking for PT i would strongly recommend to go with Roud!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing experience at GoodLife Fitness! The gym itself is great, but what truly sets it apart is the exceptional customer service. Joseph at the front desk is an absolute gem! He’s always friendly, helpful, and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone feels welcome. His positive attitude is contagious and makes coming to the gym a pleasure. GoodLife is lucky to have such a fantastic employee!

Expérience fantastique: First time going to this GoodLife location. I have been training with Roud for 5 months. He was very helpful in touring me around. He explained everything I needed to know. I had pain in my neck and back for more than 3 years but now I feel better. Training with Roud is best experience for me. I extremely recommended.

Expérience fantastique: It's been almost three months since I started my fitness journey. I've been training with Coach Ayhan and hands down to him as it's been a challenging, fun, and motivating journey. Being a beginner, I was really hesitant and scared. I had some concerns about my lower back pain and shoulder stiffness. Coach Ayhan luckily specializes in the area of my concerns. His expertise and careful attention to detail guided me from the beginning by making sure that I could gradually do the exercises safely and correctly each session considering my back and shoulder condition. He sure is knowledgeable in the field, communicates and listens well, and shows genuine care and guidance to his clients. In a short time, I can already feel some overall improvement (less lower back pain and shoulder stiffness, more strength) thanks to Coach Ayhan's expertise and unwavering dedication. He continues to push me beyond my limits. For this, I'm really thankful for having him as my personal trainer and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional, dedicated, knowledgeable, and supportive personal trainer that can help you achieve your fitness goals!

Expérience fantastique: I had an incredible experience at this gym. The staff went above and beyond when I accidentally dropped my AirPod under the treadmill. They were super helpful and friendly, making sure I got my AirPod back safely. I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for a welcoming and supportive fitness environment. Thank you to Hershey and Kim.

Expérience fantastique: I was in Toronto for a short period of time and wanted to join a good gym, And then I found goodlife fitness and bought one month ultimate membership and my experience jn the gym was very good, the machines were good and the place was clean too. Also the staff was very helpful and sweet, Especially the manager (Kim).

Expérience fantastique: This location is always clean and well maintained. Visiting from the states Lilian went out of her way to help me connect my 24 Hour Fitness pass so I would be able to workout while in visiting Toronto.

Expérience positive: Bought pt lessons. Trainer Hamed and AK are nice, patient and knowledgeable people. AK records training progress carefully on cell phone during each session. Sales person Su is enthusiastic and speaks Mandarin, yay!

Expérience fantastique: just tried personal training for the first time, got assigned to a trainer Jin who has the same native background as me which made it more comfortable and encouraging to go to the gym. his extensive knowledge about fitness is very eye opening allowing me to gain more knowledge on how I could reach my goal. I am very thankful to have met Jin, great job on the gym. five stars

Expérience positive: Many say good, and many not so. Personally, my experience with this gym was not bad. Always clean and always someone to chat with. A huge number of exercise machines that were in my gym were in perfect condition. Of the minuses, I would say that the price in the gyms varies. For some reason, for me, the price in my gym, without the right to use other gyms, was higher than that of my friend who had full access to all the gyms and additional services, and another unpleasant moment when I moved and canceled the subscription, they took money from me for two weeks and said that they would take it for the next two, supposedly this is their insurance against cancellation of the subscription, as for me, this is a money pump.

Expérience fantastique: If you want a gym with caring and friendly staff, great equipment layout, endless classes held by welcoming people, this is the gym. After four years of trying gyms out, this was the clear winner by a landslide. I have stayed with Goodlife at Yonge and Finch the longest and have no intentions on leaving. If you find another gym run by God himself then by all means, but this is pretty much the best you’ll get besides that. Thank you Luda for making Yoga so welcoming/fun and yet challenging. Thank you to Kim and Luis for always addressing needs, and to Abbas for his tips and suggestions. Great staff and great atmosphere. A no brainer to pick this location.

Expérience fantastique: I have been to many goodlife locations for many years and especially the yonge and finch location have the friendliest staff and trainers. They are welcoming to beginners and experienced lifters. So far I have not witnessed any fights between users and everyone is respectful and courteous to each other. Not intimidating for new members and it will always be my favorite place to workout. Equipment are always cleaned by both staff and members. Kim is fabulous manager, answering all my questions and concerns.

Expérience fantastique: Great Gym to work out. Clean and organized facilities. Great machines. Not too crowded. Shout out for my trainer Roud. He is great creating plans for you to reach goals. Really enjoyed his assistance and appreciate he pushing me in a friendly manner.

Expérience négative: One of the absolute worst gyms and managements I've seen in my life. The equipment is decrepit, the air is suffocating, and the smell is unbearable. The overcrowding is hazardous, and the place is a blatant rip-off. The staff is indifferent, and the trainers harass you at all hours, relentlessly pushing sessions though phone calls. The management, especially their corporate office, is a nightmare. I have never encountered such appalling conditions. I refuse to degrade myself by continuing to go there. I'm done. Avoid this place at all costs.

Expérience positive: I've been coming to this loc more than one year. I've found lot's of good friends because of the great atmosphere at the gym. However, as the weather gets hotter, the problem of heating the gym becomes more apparent‍♂️which is realy annoying. The club gets more crowded during the summer though!

Expérience fantastique: Nicely equipped gym with very good staff! I want to give a shoutout to one of the front desk staff, Tobi. I came for my workout today as usual, but I saw a guy who was obviously high, doing all sorts of strange things in the gym. He was tweaking, slamming the machines, talking to himself, blasting his music, and a lot of members were very concerned. I tried to find a manager, but it was a Sunday… Luckily, Tobi stepped up and handled the situation really well. Despite being a big guy himself, Tobi didn’t just forcefully ask the member to leave. He approached him in a very friendly manner and simply talked to him. I don’t know exactly what Tobi said, but he managed to de-escalate the situation and didn’t make the member feel bad while escorting him out. I even saw them fist-bumping as the guy left. Tobi handled it like a pro. This guy deserves a raise! However, it is not my first time seeing high members at the gym. I do hope the gym can improve its screening process before signing up members, so situations like this can be avoided in the future.

Expérience négative: Don’t bother going to this location since you will end up waiting for 40 mins to use a machine! This location only has one hip thrust machine and a lady was using it for 40 mins. When I informed the staff that I have been waiting for so long they asked the lady to share the machine which she did NOT. I shouldn’t pay $60 a month to wait for 40 mins to use a machine. GoodLife finch and Yonge location should really consider their policies for the fees they’re charging. I have never experienced this issue at other locations or at other gyms.

Expérience fantastique: It's been two months I've been working out here. I came here without knowing anyone but I met soooo many good people here. I met some friends here too. I was welcomed by officer whose name is Luis, and some people in the gym greeted me even though it was first time for them to see me. The trainer Su helped me enroll this gym and I always appreciate Isgandar for his kindness. Happy to be a member of a Good life fitness at Younge-Finch.

Expérience fantastique: I have been going to GoodLife for one year and this location is my favourite. I normally go to the Sunday 8am Body Pump class. Lilian at the front desk always greets me with a smile and asks me how the group class on my way out. Body Pump class instructor Natalie calls me out when I don’t do it correct and I really appreciate her attention. Maybeline is a great dance instructor and I go to her classes often as well. Great customer service and group class at this location.

Expérience fantastique: Just want to comment on a post a few days ago about someone upset with mike asking someone to stop talking on her phone in the middle of a spin class. Mike did an excellent job handling this situation- she was quite disruptive in the class. There are just some common sense things that people should simply know and not have to be told not to - this is one of them. It is simple - stay off your phone in the middle of a group class

Expérience fantastique: Love this location. Ayhan, my personal trainer, is amazing! I was able to reach my goals with his help and professionalism. Highly recommend

Expérience négative: Is good place for exercise but ((((((((((((((( Mike p in your class RPM ))))))I had a bad experience today May 6 at 5/30 to 6/30 pm And I don’t like your attitude I don’t know what is the rules of your class but if you have a rules it’s better share with us at first before class start or if one of your students do something wrong is better to call them and after class talk with them , its not important you told me don’t use phone just for 30 second emergency call ,the way that you choose was so bad so bad , it’s not good to give bad feeling to people in front of everyone After your class i decided to cancel my pass and just leave there but your manager changed my mind ❤️ Thankyou

Expérience fantastique: I've really enjoyed my 6-month journey with my personal trainer, Jin Park. He's incredibly knowledgeable and experienced. This was my first time ever in a gym, and he kindly helped me start from scratch, guiding me through weight training. Being a beginner, I had concerns about injuries, but his careful attention ensured I could exercise safely. Whether you're just starting out or already enjoy working out, I believe Jin would be the perfect trainer for you. He's simply the best! 진쌤 짱~

Expérience fantastique: Very nice Gym with a nice Sauna! The staff are always very polite and nice! Big thank you to my coach Milad for pushing me to my limits and helping me achieve my fitness goals! Thank you! I am grateful for your motivation and encouragement during my workouts!

Expérience fantastique: I like the gym for its location and staff, I attend different classes and super happy about the vibe of those. Always greeted warmly at the desk, Ghazal always so nice to me (she was the one who got me enrolled). Lillian is always very helpful Love yoga class with Luda (come 3-4 times a week), HIIT/Body Attack with Nima and RPM with Ricardo. Thank you folks!

Expérience fantastique: I joined this gym back in July 2023, and for the past 7 months, I feel very fortunate to work with Ayhan as my personal trainer. To put this into perspective, when I first started training with Ayhan, I was unable to do 1 proper squat. I had never done a proper squat before. Fast forward to the present, I'm able to barbell squat 1 plate. His patience, his motivation, and his commitment to push me past barriers I've never thought I've push past before, allowed me to be more confident, more motivated, and most of all be accountable. I look forward to continue working with Ayhan and the wonderful folks at Goodlife Yonge and Finch.

Expérience négative: Very unfortunate that I was unable to bring in a guest with me to try out the gym. I've been a member for quite a while and have brought in customers for Goodlife by bringing guests to try out the gym. My friend came all the way from Guelph and they denied him access because i hadn't filled out an online form 24 hours ahead of time. I have never heard of such a thing before that day. I've brought multiple guests to different locations and they never had me do this. As long as it was my guests first time visiting, they were able to come in by filling out a form with a piece of id and try out the facilities. This location and the girl who was supposedly "helping" us (Ghazal) were incapable of doing their job right, which was very ironic because she was telling me other locations were not. I had just had my pre workout and had caffeine running through my veins ready to workout, for them to tell me that my friend who came all the way from Guelph needs to pay a $25 fee for a day pass instead of letting him try out the gym for the day. Disappointing and embarrassing. And yes, I definitely decided to be that girl today and leave this completely petty review because honestly, I'm just returning the energy they gave me and my guest.

Expérience fantastique: I've been attending Goodlife Fitness on Finch for the past year, where I had the good fortune of meeting one of their personal trainers, Roud, and the experience has been transformative. Roud's approach to personal training is exceptionally detailed and tailored to my specific physical needs. He expertly identified imbalances and potential injuries in my body and created a focused plan to address them. This personalized attention has made a substantial difference not only in my general fitness but also in my performance in kung fu, where I've seen significant improvements in strength, mobility, and balance. Since I started training with Roud at Goodlife Fitness, I have seen a remarkable progress in my sport performance, so much so that both my coach and teammates have repeatedly noted it, whereas previously, despite frequently training on my own at the gym, I saw no progress in the specific challenges I faced in my sport. Roud continuously updates his skills with seminars and brings the latest fitness techniques to our sessions. His dedication is evident in the results I've achieved. His own previous experiences as a professional athlete also play a role in his knowledge. I highly recommend Roud to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and committed personal trainer.

Expérience fantastique: Excellent Personal Training Experience I had a fantastic experience with Roud at Good life his personalized approach, expert guidance, and motivating workouts helped me achieve great results. Highly recommend!

Expérience fantastique: The gym is good, they owe me a shake but Roumen makes it more than worth it. I've been training with Roumen for the past nine months, and I can confidently say it's been a transformative journey. His wealth of knowledge is apparent from the get-go, and he tailors each session with techniques that prioritize not just isolated muscle groups, but my overall movement and functionality. What sets Roumen apart is his unwavering dedication to his clients. He makes every session not only productive but genuinely enjoyable. His friendly demeanor and his unmatched energy encourage me to push my limits. Speaking of pushing limits, Roumen doesn't shy away from challenging me. He pushes me beyond what I thought possible, consistently driving me to work harder and surpass my expectations. Unlike other trainers I've encountered, he inspires me to strive for excellence and he is committed towards achieving your goals. In these nine months, I've witnessed significant improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall health, all thanks to Roumen's guidance and expertise. If you want to unleash your full potential, training under this Sensie is your best bet!

Expérience positive: Although my friend and I ultimately decided not to enroll at GoodLife Fitness North York, I wanted to acknowledge the excellent service we received during our visit. The girl(Mery) who showed us around was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely interested in helping us find the right fitness solution. She answered all our questions and gave us a thorough tour of the facilities, making us feel welcome and valued as potential members. While we didn't join this time, we were impressed by the customer service and would recommend this gym based on our experience.

Expérience fantastique: An excellent gym. Well maintained equipment, friendly staff, knowledgeable personal trainers and clean facilities. Impressive variety and amount of machines aswell as tools to assist anyone seeking fitness and health. The staff always go above and beyond for their members. The personal trainers at this location are all very capable and clearly explain workouts to clients to maximize results. The gym is well maintained and taken care of by its attendants, which is clearly visible in the prime condition that everything within the gym is in. I've been going to this gym for the past few weeks, and in my short time here I have had a wonderful time working out, interacting with employees and members.

Expérience négative: The terrible gym I had ever met. They prioritized their profit more than costumer's convenience. If you're planning to go this gym, you should be care that some unexpected or emergency situations do not happen. Their communication skills to customers were so disappointed. However, I left this review with my hope or feedback this gym will be better. It is definitely at a place easily accessible, so I hope them having a better customer treating skills.

Expérience négative: This gym operates under different rules for each customer. Some customers can cancel without any cancellation fees as the manager wishes, while others cannot. It's just a gym where the manager does whatever he want.

Expérience fantastique: Great gym especially the spin classes. Mike and Ricardo are great instructors! Love the steam room as an added bonus

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in the area! Helpful and happy staff, I always look forward to coming in for an amazing workout. Kim the manager is fantastic, very helpful. The front desk staff Hershey … awesome name! This gym is our second home. I’m very happy here!!

Expérience fantastique: I've been hitting up this gym for about six months now, and I'm already head over heels for it! The vibe here is just so chill and relaxing, it's like stepping into a time warp where all your worries melt away. The staff are the best .. Super friendly and always ready to lend a hand. Shoutout to my trainer, Elshad – seriously, this guy is a game-changer. He's hands down the best trainer I've had in ages, and I've been around the block when it comes to working out. Let's not forget about Kim, the manager. She's an absolute gem and special to me. She is always there to help out and keep things running smoothly.

Expérience fantastique: Really good gym, a lot of equipments , I usually never do classes but Kim the manager recommended some to me and I really enjoy them. I use the gym often, the employees are friendly and I feel motivated to work out.

Expérience fantastique: I've been doing personal training with Rei for 6 months and I got a better result than I expected. I gained 2.5 kg but my muscle mass increased and my body fat dropped from 28 to 17.1%!!! It's so much different and I feel so much better about myself. Rei is an enthusiastic, patient and professional trainer. She helped to set my target and explained so clearly to me because I started with zero knowledge about gym and workouts. She designed my workout process, also gave me so much good advice (nutrients, diet ) to help me reach my goal faster. I’m so grateful for doing with Rei!!! Really highly recommend if u need a personal trainer

Expérience fantastique: This is the only GoodLife where I see the manager, Kim, going about examining the facility, making sure things are right and the club is functioning properly. She’s friendly and always ready to answer questions and assist with any ongoing issues.

Expérience fantastique: Exceptional Personal Training Experience! I've had numerous experiences with different gyms and trainers, but AK stands out as my personal trainer, and he's truly the best! His energy, support, and motivation push me to new limits. Highly recommend for an exceptional training journey!!

Expérience fantastique: I had an exceptional experience with AK as my personal trainer. His extensive knowledge, unwavering support, boundless energy, genuine care, and invaluable guidance have been instrumental in my fitness journey. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a dedicated and effective fitness trainer. In addition to his exceptional qualities, my personal trainer maintains a clean training area, providing a hygienic and organized space for workouts. The fitness machines they incorporate are top-notch, enhancing the overall training experience. It's a testament to his commitment to creating a positive and effective fitness environment. You are the best AK.

Expérience négative: I used to come to this gym pre-pandemic and I loved it here. However, last year I started going back for yoga and spin classes and found the classes were good but the environment is not good at all. The yoga studio is always dirty no matter when you have session there. I used to go to evening and noon classes so I thought that was the reason but I also went to a 9AM class several times and the floor was still a dusty. This is concerning especially since I have a dust mite allergy, and I have to lie on the most of the yoga sessions. I hope this issue with cleanliness will be resolved sooner rather than later.

Expérience fantastique: I've been working out from this location for 3 months. I love the ambiance, and the staff are approachable and friendly. I would like to say thank you to my personal trainer, Raud. He is really knowledgeable and an expert in terms of training and lifting. I would recommend him to all beginners planning to go to the gym, as he is friendly, will give you some tips, and will motivate you with your gym journey.

Expérience fantastique: This gym is located in a very convenient place and all staff are so much well welcoming , they motivates and encourage you in your fitness journey . They have professional staff and trainers, especially Mr. Roud who is a very friendly and professional personal trainer , he motivated me and i had perfect experience doing workout sessions with him , i can say he is the best personal trainer i have seen yet.

Expérience négative: The gym is a good motivating place to be, but honestly, how, in, the, heck, can, the ,steam, room, in, every, goodlife BE BROKEN NONSTOPPPPPPPPP! I literally have gotten injured once due to expecting the resource im paying for to be available and it quite literally never is. In 4 months of being at this (and other goodlife) gym, I've had the luxury of using the steam-room TWICE. It is amazing, but never works! The changeroom is fairly clean, especially when compared to the goodlife on highway7 and yonge, but the showers stink and there is never any gosh darn shampoo or conditioner in all of the showers... why is it a part of my routine to search a suitable shower just to utilize, once again, what I'm paying for? WHY IS YOUR MUSIC SO LOUD! I can hear it through my noise canceling earbuds sometimes or it's so quiet im just confused lol. otherwise the equipment is alright with the exception of one or more treadmills speed decrease buttons literally not working when I was almost at my limit... bad time to find out, but fortunately I've been active for so long that I could adapt, but imagine a new gym goer attempts something and cant reliably decrease their speed in a timely manner! thats crazy dude. i like the free parking though, but thats not goodlife thats the building in tandem with them who provides the nice clean free fun awesome good convenient parking so thanksssss. seriously, dont pay money to go here and revoke your memberships as protest to the ineffectual resources this gym "provides". *sticks tongue out*

Expérience fantastique: Good gym, good customer service, great people. It’s just I wish it was the 24 hr one considering it is at one of the major intersections. Other than that no complaints

Expérience fantastique: Today was my assessment at the gym, George took the time to get me familiar with some toning and abs excersizes. He is friendly and motivational. This is so helpful if you're setting a goal. Like in my case its getting rid of belly fat. George put all points on my strengths/weaknesses and health . The workout got me feeling so refreshed . Thanks George!

Expérience fantastique: I've been with Rie for 6 months and she has helped me build a healthier lifestyle. Rie is super professional and supportive, customizes diet and training plans according to my personal condition, and provides numerous suggestions, I'm a person with limited discipline but she help me to achieve my goal without much pain. Instead of a trainer, she's more like a friend. Recommended if you're looking for a personal trainer :)

Expérience fantastique: This gym is at a very convenient location and has a clean facility. There is a variety of different group classes if you are interested in one of those. I also tried the free personal training session with Linda. Linda was very friendly and knowledgeable. She listened to my workout history - or lack thereof - and my concerns very attentively. She taught me a few stretches and exercises that were tailored to my needs. It has been a few days but I can already feel my body getting stronger. Thanks, Linda! *Linda is also fluent in Korean if anyone is looking for a personal trainer who can speak Korean.

Expérience fantastique: This is a great GoodLife location, always kept very clean and organized and the staff are consistently friendly. Kim the manager is very personable and ready and willing to help with anything going on in the gym!

Expérience positive: Been going to this gym for 10 years. Love the staff and trainers . Very respectful and always looking to help the members. Joseph that works at the front has been welcoming and always performs his duties to the best possible standards. The only reason I did not give it a 5 star is because there are room for improvements , maintenance of equipments takes longer than expected.

Expérience fantastique: I love this gym I have been going there for some time, it has a very friendly staff and it’s a cosy place . I like training with George he is the best trainer very friendly and polite , he showed me all I need to work on and he’s been a great trainer and I am really benefiting from him in my journey of weight loss .

Expérience fantastique: Su and George were amazing people. They were very friendly and the personal training packages were way cheaper than la fitness. If you would like to be ripped up by paying 100 an hour for 25 mins of training go to la .

Expérience fantastique: I have been training at this location for 6 months and I really love it. It has all the equipment needed, different areas (turf, stretching, boxing), a sauna. The stuff is very friendly. Have been training with Davide and it's been a blessing. He is very knowledgeable with over 20 years of experience. He helped me improve my techniques, mobility, get rid of joint pains, and digestive system issues. You can tell he is dedicated to provide as much value as possible to his clients. I definitely recommend.

Expérience négative: So …. It’s been a month now the steam room has been broken and it’s now covered with brown paper which means they are gonna take it out . Not only that four massage chairs are broken . The soap dispensers are now lying leaking on the floors . The-gym is full of people all the time and you can’t tell me there is no budget to get these things repaired , they should be lowering the cost of memberships not increasing them . The job of the manager is to walk around the gym first thing in the morning and note the problems . Not sit at a desk as soon as you walk in and for months nothing is done . The gym is always hot, none of the fans are ever turned on and the outlets don’t work . The massage chairs are always broken. The showers have no soap or conditioner ever and if they do they are broken too . The men’s change rooms are filthy and towels every where . The internet doesn’t work and you have to keep turning of your wifi to use your own data. The cheap hair dryers are also broken and the outlets don’t work . There is no use complaining cause no one does anything . Don’t claim to be the best gym in Canada I have no idea what my dues are going to ! Last time I used a towel I broke out with a reaction all over my body and face .

Expérience fantastique: I started going to this gym just a couple weeks ago and I can say this place is very welcoming. I booked a free visit and workout, Mari was super friendly and showed me around the place. I trained with the guidance of Davide and I had an amazing experience, he's knowledgeable, experienced, patient and gave me his full attention, he asked me what my goals are and together we built a plan to achieve those goals. In just 6 sessions, he helped me correcting my form, giving me tips on how to make the best out of my workouts and I already can see a big difference from my first squat to my latest. As a beginner, I highly recommend having him as a trainer. Awesome place!

Expérience fantastique: Love this location--staff is really friendly and I actually enjoy going to the gym now (maybe for the first time ever). I'm training with George and it's been truly amazing! He's fabulous. Over the last 5 weeks of training, I've seen significant changes in my strength and endurance. Workouts are both fun and work and I always look forward to our sessions. He's really easy to work with, made me feel comfortable from our first meeting, and knows just how much to push me to get max results! Definitely worth it.

Expérience fantastique: Had a great time training at the club. Good equipments and friendly staff. My PT is Davide who helped me restart my training post-Covid. I was able to rebuild my strength and balance. A good side benefit was improved golf performance, I guess a result of better coordination now.

Expérience négative: I recently had an unfortunate experience with this gym that I feel compelled to share. When I initially inquired about membership, the staff, particularly Alex, assured me that I could pay for just two weeks. Trusting this information, I agreed and started my membership. To my dismay, I discovered that the gym had charged my account for two months instead of the agreed-upon two weeks. When I questioned this discrepancy, I was told that a contract had been signed, despite my explicit conversation with Alex about the short-term membership. This miscommunication left me frustrated and disappointed. Not only was I misled about the payment period, but the staff's inability to rectify the situation in Alex's absence added to my dissatisfaction. I believe clear communication is paramount, especially in service-oriented businesses like gyms. My experience here has left me questioning the integrity of their practices and the reliability of their staff. I hope others are cautious when dealing with membership agreements at this gym to avoid similar misunderstandings.

Expérience positive: Here's how I go to the gym for free. Take full advantage of your goal. To get healthier. Connect as many micro-goals, to the primary goal. To get healthier. I like the slogan on the wall, next to the free weights. At this location. 19 points to the person whom post the quote. My membership is approximately $100 per month. I go six times per week. (Don't start with this goal. Build up to it.) $100 divided by 24 visits is about $4.17 per visit. I walk three times per week, approximately 9 miles . Which is also a micro-goal. To enjoy nature and collect my thoughts . Catching up on phone calls, or listening to a positive pod cast. Plus warming up, prior to the gym. I drive 3 times per week. Parking is free. If you validate your card , at the friendly front desk. I am saving approximately $45 , with free parking. Micro-goal, there are so many fantastical independent Asian restuarants, within walking distance. Finally, the amenities. Refer to picture. I help myself to a massage , at least 3 time per week. Which would cost me approximately $30 at the mall. Micro-goal meditation, reward myself. I conclude my work out , by going to the steam room. Between the amount of water I drink and the amount I sweat. It is like going to the spa. Rejuvenation, meditation and relaxation. Approximately saving, hundreds. With the right attitude going to the gym will save you money. Be the best version of yourselves and create loving memories. Only feedback. The men's steam room and showers can use a good cleaning, more frequently. Common guys, we can do better:) * since I made these comments. The men's steamroom and showers have been renovated. Great job!
