Expérience fantastique: I can’t recommend Denman Athletics enough! This place is amazing!!! Excellent equipment!! Coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and always take time to explain proper technique. I always get out of each class feeling amazing and energized! Whole staff is super friendly and have built a real community which I’m glad to be a part of!

Expérience fantastique: Denman Athletics is a uniquely welcoming gym. Excellent personalized coaching and thoughtfully designed classes, all in a friendly community. It’s clean, well organized, and the atmosphere is caring and truly motivating. If I could give it six stars, I would! Best gym I’ve ever been to. We are so lucky to have Denman Athletics in the west end.

Expérience fantastique: How can I explain the importance of this place and the people who work there? I can share this is the first time I have been waking up before my alarm, and that's because I am super excited about my exercise routine at Denman Athletics. Everything is great: the equipment is awesome, the space is always super clean and organized, and the people there are extraordinary. Thank you, guys, for your amazing work to keep this community always motivated, I hope to be working on my best version with you for a long time :D

Expérience fantastique: Don’t wonder why everyone’s giving this place 5 stars. I don’t know if this is normal for a gym because I’m new in town, but this place has nailed, “community”. I feel like I’m in a community with the staff and gym goers. It’s small and intimate. Our group sessions are max 10 people, which allows the instructor/trainer to pay close attention to me, something I appreciate since I’m returning to working out for the first time since popping two kids out. Everyone is so down to earth. I love the post workout laughs on the way out. I love the first name greeting when I walk in. I love the quick email responses. I love the personal workout station fully equipped with what feels like top notch equipment. It’s clean, like CLEAN.

Expérience fantastique: Excellent facility and coaches. Top of the range machines and equipment. Hospitality is amazing. Friendly, fun and diligent coaches. Gym is always clean. Fun challenging workouts. Semi private classes that have plenty of variety for all your goals like strenght, conditioning, and cardio. Completed a 4 week challenge recently and put on 5lbs of muscle and lost 5% body fat. Tried out their 1:1 personal training which I was very impressed by in terms of the quality of programming and coaching. I wanted training specific for soccer which inlcuded pkyometrics and high intensity cardio which Maeve did not fail to provide. Most reasonable price you will find for semi private coaching. Keep up the great work guys!

Expérience fantastique: Hands down to the best training facility out there. Let’s start by saying that the place is spotless, you have all the equipment you can think of, and very well maintained. The aesthetics of the place is amazing, with cool murals, visually stunning. All the coaches are super knowledgeable, they teach you proper technique and posture to lift heavy and to avoid injuries. 10/10

Expérience fantastique: Simply an incredible gym. There's a reason why the reviews are so good. When you go to Denman Athletics you're more than working out, you're training. I've been attending the structured courses here for 3 months and I've gotten more results than randomly lifting weights by myself for over a year. Technique, form, and workout structure matters -- and that's exactly what you get here. On top of that, it's just a pleasure to see David and Aimee and the rest of the team every week, I always leave feeling energized and refreshed. Invest in your health and come train at Denman Athletics :)

Expérience fantastique: I have been attending the group training at DA for that past year and must say the staff are incredible. David and his team really do invest everything they can into their clients. great community feel around the gym. This place has all you need and more to hit your goals from personal and group training, in body scans, high quality equipment and technology, nutrition plans. weather your a beginner, recovering from injury or well experience athlete there is something here to suit all abilities.

Expérience fantastique: I would highly recommend Denman Athletics to everybody. I have been training with David for years now and he is the absolute best at what he does! Always so positive, supportive and encouraging. The gym has everything you would need. It is a lovely space, always clean with the best equipment. All of the staff are so friendly and welcoming. The coaching staff are very knowledgeable, always ready to help and listen to you. The smaller group classes provide a challenging but very effective workout, and they are always different, so it keeps them interesting. The gym also promotes a great community spirit and often has social events for the members. I couldn’t recommend Denman Athletics highly enough!

Expérience fantastique: Denman Athletics is a first rate, group and personal training gym. I’ve been going since moving to the Westend - and there’s nothing else like it in this neighbourhood. The coaches are fantastic, the programming is consistent, and there’s a lot of instruction and coaching in the group classes. David and Aimee (and all of the coaches!) are also just first rate people, and have cultivated an incredible space and gym community. I highly recommend this gym to anyone - from beginners looking to improve their training programs and lifting, to experienced lifters - there’s something for everyone here at Denman Athletics.

Expérience fantastique: Joining Denman Athletics has been a game-changer for me. Not only are the workouts top-notch, but the sense of community here is unparalleled. From the supportive instructors who push you to your limits to the friendly faces sweating it out beside you, it feels like one big family. Each session is not just a workout; it's an experience filled with encouragement, motivation, and camaraderie. If you're looking for more than just a place to exercise, this DA is where you belong.

Expérience fantastique: I highly recommend training at Denman Athletics! David and Aimee have built such an amazing facility, with a such a warm and welcoming community/atmosphere. I have been training with David for over 5 years, and value his coaching so much. As someone who found gyms to be intimating initially, David and his team have built my confidence up by showing proper technique, answering questions and pushing me when they know I’m capable. The classes are never overcrowded, and you always feel supported throughout. The gym is spotlessly clean, and they make constant upgrades to equipment/set ups - it always feels like you’re getting the best of the best!

Expérience fantastique: Great classes and coaches! They pay close attention to detail, ensuring you get maximum benefits from every workout!

Expérience fantastique: So happy to be apart of Denman Athletics, I’ve learned so much about strength training thanks to all of the amazing coaches who manage to make training enjoyable! Couldn’t recommend this gym enough :)

Expérience fantastique: Since joining Denman Athletics in October 2023, I felt welcomed by the friendly staff and the vibrant atmosphere. My experience with both personal training sessions and group classes has been exceptional. The trainers are knowledgeable, the facility is spotless, and the sense of community is unbeatable.

Expérience fantastique: The best gym around! A great variety of classes, excellent equipment and the most welcoming, encouraging and knowledgeable coaches! I would highly recommend DA to anyone!!

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been training at Denman athletics for three years and it’s one of my favourite places to go. The coaches are top notch, the facility is immaculate and the equipment is excellent. They really are expert trainers and run it very professionally. Highly recommend.

Expérience fantastique: After 8 years of searching for a gym that I love in Vancouver, I finally found Denman Athletics and since then I have enjoyed my training so much more. It is without a doubt the best gym I have been a part of in the city and I have tried many. The small group training classes are excellent, small enough that each member is watched closely and coached individually but big enough to provide great group energy, to me it is the perfect environment to train in. Denman also offers a great variety of classes and they are well scheduled All the staff and coaches at Denman make the experience a very personal one every time you walk in the door. The coaching provided in both group settings and PT is amazing and the focus on good form and safety is constant. Denman is always investing in new equipment so there is never a dull moment when it comes to learning new movements and training with state of the art machinery. I couldn’t recommend Denman Athletics more. If you are nervous about joining a gym or group classes, you will feel safe and welcome at Denman so give it a try!

Expérience fantastique: Great space and great people.

Expérience fantastique: Amazing, community-building type of gym! Very supportive, safe, friendly, and you feel like a strong af badass after every class

Expérience fantastique: I have been going to Denman Athletics for about 8 months now. There is lots of variety in the types of classes offered. No two sessions are ever the same, so it never feels repetitive. And all the coaches take lots of time with each person to make sure they understand every exercise- which removes so much of the anxiety of going to the gym. I feel like I have learnt do much about sustainable and realistic lifestyle changes, and the team have helped me to where I’ve become much more mindful when it comes to exercise and food. Thank you to all the DA team!

Expérience fantastique: Denman Athletics is a fantastic gym and training facility. I started attending a few months ago and I was made feel so welcome from day one. It’s the first time I actually enjoy getting up at 6am to get a work out in! If you are considering joining, do it. You won’t regret it ☺️

Expérience fantastique: Everyone at DA is simply amazing, great coaches and impeccable humans! Every group class is very well structured and because it’s only 10 people per you get super personalized approach from your coach! Gyms can be a pretty intimidating place, especially when you’re at the beginning of your journey but coaches at DA are super encouraging and will hype you up :) they always make sure your form is proper so you can perform exercises safely. Their pricing is very reasonable and it’s a workout you’ll be excited to go to! They run monthly challenges and packages include InBody scans to track your progress as well as customized diet and nutrition handouts. They go well above and beyond to help you meet your goals, so no more excuses and book your first class! Thank you DA Team for the amazing community you’ve built!

Expérience fantastique: A little over a year at Denman Athletics, really good facilities and equipments! The trainers are great at customizing and adapting workouts to your needs, and very good at keeping up with your progress!

Expérience fantastique: Denman Athletics is a lovely, welcoming, inclusive gym with stellar staff. I have been a client since 2021 and have worked 1:1 with several trainers here, as well as enjoying many classes over the last 3 years. I am someone who was intimidated by a gym atmosphere at first, but David and his staff made me feel comfortable, confident and that I always belonged in any class. I love that the trainers take time to show proper technique, answer questions, and help you succeed. The gym is such a positive atmosphere and I can’t recommend it highly enough!

Expérience fantastique: I love working out at Denman Athletics! Everyone is so nice, helpful, welcoming and encouraging! It’s a boost of confidence and positive energy every time I’m there. My personal trainer Darian is simply amazing!

Expérience fantastique: Awesome gym focused on building muscle and strength. Top equipment (rogue) and top trainers (Darien). Female focused approach to building muscle and improving body composition that is approachable, engaging and you learn as you go. Availability and flexibility that works around my busy work schedule. Really reasonable pricing that allows for me to maximize sessions with my coach and get incredible value!

Expérience fantastique: I can't say enough positive things about Denman Athletics! From the moment I joined, I've been consistently impressed by the quality of service and facilities. The gym is always immaculately clean, and the equipment is top-notch. What truly sets this gym apart, though, is the trainers. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure members have a great experience. The variety of classes offered is fantastic, and the trainers are passionate, engaging and always make the hardest of workouts fun. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned gym-goer, DA has something for everyone. I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for a supportive and motivating environment to achieve their fitness goals!

Expérience fantastique: Exactly what I was looking for in a gym.

Expérience fantastique: I've been going here about a month, and the people are great. The coaches are fantastic, the workouts are scaled to eb accessible and challenging (as you like), and the vibe is welcoming and inclusive. Coming here feels like a nice little community where everybody can fit in, get a good sweat, and leave smiling and congratulating each other.

Expérience fantastique: I couldn’t be happier giving Denman Athletics five stars! Everyone working there is very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I am on my fourth or fifth ‘monthly challenge’ now and I don’t see any time I’ll be stopping. I participate in the ‘strength’ class, 3-4 days a week. The sessions are well planned out and the instructors have time, with the small class setting, to work and assist with each person individually. They have very new equipment and they certainly take care of it. The ‘in-body’ scan they use is really great, it helps keep you on track. They make a personalized nutrition program, from the results and your future body goal, to get you where you want to be. I highly recommend Denman Athletics as your West End gym.

Expérience fantastique: I can’t recommend DA enough!!! The gym itself is a great space with all the equipment you need. The coaches are absolutely brilliant. They’re welcoming, encouraging and full of knowledge. The classes are excellent and really help build your confidence in the gym.

Expérience fantastique: Denman Athletics is a fantastic gym with complete and clean facilities! The trainers are nice and take an interest in you, regardless of your fitness level. Niall and Darién are very great and passionate trainers, they provide tips and tricks to get the most out of every workout. Their dedication to their clients' well-being is commendable, maintaining high energy and high expectations and creating a positive training environment! I highly recommend this gym for anyone looking to achieve their fitness goals!

Expérience fantastique: I started Denman Athletics in January doing PT sessions with Niall who got me set up and ready for the group classes! A month later, I felt ready to move to the group classes being trained by both David and Darién and honestly, starting in this gym was the best decision I've ever made! Between the amazing welcome you get when you walk in through the door, the fact that everyone who works there remembers who you are and actually ask you about your day or week, the instructors taking time on each person in the class and zoning in on areas you might need to improve whilst being mindful of injuries and accommodating of certain workouts if needed, and the overall friendly vibe of the gym, it's been the most enjoyable experience I've ever had in a gym! I personally would not be a comfortable person in gyms but after starting in Denman Athletics, it has definitely changed my mindset and made working out more of an enjoyable pastime, even at 6am.

Expérience fantastique: I have been training at Denman Athletics for nearly a year now, and I have to say it's an absolute beautiful facility, one of the best gyms I have ever trained at. Their attention to detail is impeccable. It's an absolute credit to David, Ami and the whole team down there. Cant reccomend it enough. Would give it 10 stars if I could. Will continue to train here for as long as they let will have me. Very welcoming place for newcomers as well, my fiance was very nervous but David made her feel very comfortable in her abilities. 10/10. Top notch.

Expérience fantastique: I'm very happy to find this place:) I took personal training and group class several times. At first, I was a little nervous about joining a group class. However, the trainer carefully explained everything to me, so I gradually became confident enough to participate. All my experiences have been wonderful:) Thank you team for wonderful work!!

Expérience fantastique: Hands down the BEST gym in the city. I’ve taken almost 40 classes over the past 6 months and am seeing fantastic results. Trainers are knowledgeable, focused and inspiring. The community of people are equally as great. Would recommend (for beginners and those who want to push themselves!).

Expérience fantastique: Fantastic class and guidance. The environment is welcoming and great motivation throughout the session.

Expérience fantastique: Not your average gym/studio. This is by far the best gym around. Very friendly non intimating atmosphere that makes you want to come back. The equipment is top notch and they're always adding new things which is fun. I've been training with Niall for 6 months. Cant say enough good things, work outs are always challenging and never repetitive. He is super knowledgeable and focuses on good form and not just rushing you through a set. Also nice to find a fellow Dub in the city. You will not regret coming here.

Expérience fantastique: Great gym, fun atmosphere and loads of equipment available so you’re never stuck for anything. You know you’re guaranteed a great workout and you’re out of there in 1 hour. Really nice community feel all around! Trainers are all so friendly and attentive, form is monitored throughout all the classes so you’re never second guessing what you’re doing. Programming is top class and there’s no room for fluffy sets! Cannot recommend highly enough

Expérience fantastique: David is a phenomenal professional, and Denman Athletics is a fantastic space and community. Highly recommended if you do a lot of strength training but don't jive with CrossFit - Dave's programming is much smarter and more accessible to all levels. Can't recommend this place highly enough. Denman Athletics has been a boon to my fitness regimen.

Expérience fantastique: Excellent coaching in an incredibly clean space. Staff is friendly and you feel welcome and valued as a class member. Strength classes emphasize good form and safe progression. The best!

Expérience fantastique: The coaching and classes here are brilliant. David and the team are great, so much focus in each class. Would highly recommend for someone who is thinking of starting this type of training.

Expérience fantastique: I’m so glad I found this gem in west end! I felt welcomed the moment I walked into DA. I’ve been taking personal training sessions with coach Niall for a month now and I couldn’t be happier. I wasn’t sure how much I could do considering my knee issues BUT Niall has been so great at modifying workouts but still keeping them challenging enough for me to get stronger. I can already see and feel the difference. Staff is so nice and welcoming and I love my chit chats with Aimee, she’s great :)

Expérience fantastique: Excellent coaching in a friendly and environment and beautiful space!

Expérience fantastique: Very friendly vibe and pristine, well-equipped, well-organized gym. Appreciate the effort and energy put into every single class here!

Expérience fantastique: Great classes and atmosphere!! Really enjoy coming to DA every week!

Expérience fantastique: I cannot recommend Denman Athletics enough! It has truly reignited my motivation and passion for keeping fit, which I had lost moving to Vancouver. I look forward to every single class and can feel the friendly and high energy atmosphere the minute I walk into the space! You will never regret joining the Denman crew!!!

Expérience fantastique: A true fitness community nurtured by a caring, professional team. Each class exciting, challenging, and adapted for every individual as required. Personal attention every time. PT and monthly challenges bring even more focus for the fitness journey. I wish I could give 10 stars.

Expérience fantastique: Recently moved to Vancouver and had been looking for a gym. Denman immediately made me feel welcome and part of the their community. Highly recommend to anyone that’s look for a solid gym that truly focuses on the importance of form and functional movements.

Expérience fantastique: Outstanding strength training classes. Highly motivating for working hard, yet friendly, chill atmosphere!

Expérience fantastique: Best gym. Instructors who care and are committed. Friendly, welcoming, inspiring environment. I love Denman Athletics!

Expérience fantastique: Cannot recommend the gym enough! I love that it is a class based gym that allows you to work at your own station and choose your own weights. Everyone is so friendly & the class times & variety are great.

Expérience fantastique: You really get to challenge yourself in the classes and you leave feeling so good! So happy I joined DA and couldn’t recommend it enough!

Expérience fantastique: Denman is an amazing gym with friendly and welcoming staff. I have been going on and off for a few years and love the atmosphere and dedication the staff have towards the clients. Would highly recommend going!!

Expérience fantastique: It seems like everywhere you turn, someone is trying to get something from you. It becomes hard to be trusting and open to new experiences. I've never been impressed by my time through various gyms, so I was extremely reluctant. However, I'm so glad I decided to give DA a try. This gym will take from you, but in an unexpected way. For me, it took my insecurity and doubt. The training I did made me so much more aware of my own body, and it gave me a feeling of confidence about who I am and what I can achieve. If you have the privilege to work with David, you will meet an incredibly knowledgeable trainer and a wonderful friend. His positive energy is so contagious that it's hard not to feel inspired. He somehow always makes you feel like smiling, even when you feel like you're dying from challenging yourself to the last breath. You can tell that the owners care and that they're constantly working on making the space the best it can be. The gym is always in top shape and it's a wonderful and inviting space to be a part of. DA is a gem and I highly recommend it. The owners are awesome and the gym makes a positive impact on the community. 10 stars.

Expérience fantastique: Really enjoy going to Denman Athletics. It's a great community, great focus on strength and health over looks/weight, keeps me motivated and am actually seeing results

Expérience fantastique: This facility is one of the better studios in the city. David and Aimee are amazing. The gym is very well put together and always immaculately clean. The staff is very friendly and are always helpful. They have great trainers that are knowledgeable when it come to helping u reach you fitness goals.I would definitely recommend trying the classes her and if u need help with motivation or training this is the place to go

Expérience fantastique: Excellent experience at Denman Athletics! Friendly atmosphere where everyone goes at their own pace. The variety of classes is a good addition and the coaches are all great!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing gym and trainers. They are encouraging throughout the sessions and care about getting to know you and knowing your personal goals. I love all the classes, the strength class is really different to anything else I have ever tried before. You will not regret visiting this gym!!

Expérience fantastique: Denman Athletic's trifecta of expert coaches, thoughtful workout plans, and well-maintained equipment works incredibly well. It also helps that the coaches are not just knowledgeable, but helpful, friendly, and caring too. Work out here long enough and you'll realize they take your individual strengths, weaknesses, and pain points into account, and motivate you to do better with every passing session. Even in a group session, you'll get a tailored experience and attention from the trainer leading it. The owners are meticulously hands-on with the place, so rest assured, they constantly strive to improve the experience and aren't content to rest on their laurels. If you're looking to improve your health and/or get into better shape, you owe it to yourself to give DA a chance. You won't be disappointed!

Expérience fantastique: I couldn’t recommend this gym enough! After moving over to Vancouver, I found myself really lacking in getting back into my fitness routine until I signed up to David’s class back in April. The monthly challenges were a great way to keep on track and achieve my goals. David and the whole team keeping me accountable throughout but in such a way a great way! I cant wait to get back after my summer holidays.

Expérience fantastique: Fantastic gym, fantastic staff, fantastic equipment and “fun”tastic vibe! The classes, especially the Saturday Sweat are heaps of fun, tough, motivating, and challenging. The team do a great job with variety and mixing things up. DA all the way!

Expérience fantastique: Top notch trainers, varied programs, excellent equipment and space and overall a really friendly and inclusive community. I am extremely pleased since I started doing strength classes at Denman Athletics a couple of months ago. Thanks!

Expérience fantastique: The best gym in Vancouver! David and Aimee have created an amazing space to workout and achieve your fitness goals. David’s coaching style is encouraging and motivating. The gym itself has amazing equipment and is always immaculate.

Expérience fantastique: I have been working out in gyms for almost 30 years and I can honestly say that Denman Athletics is one of the best gyms I've ever worked out in. The facility is amazing as is the owner, David Henderson and his wife Aimee, and all of the trainers! David is meticulous about providing proper form for every class as are all of the trainers. There is great comradery among all of the gym members. People support one another and everyone always leaves the gym happier than they arrived. Each session is carefully thought out. The warm up that he does before each session is unique to the workout that he has created. David thinks about what muscle groups are going to be used and what needs to be done to prepare them for the exercises. He makes sure that the muscles are ready for the moves ahead. He explains this to the class so they learn for themselves about how to structure a workout (if you are interested in that). Because the class size is kept small, 10 people max, it is possible to give people individual instruction when needed. And the trainers know the gym members well and know their injuries and are able to provide alternative exercises when necessary. The set up is fantastic. Everyone has their own station with a barbell, access to plenty of plates and a variety of dumbbells. The equipment is new and kept very clean. There is a water cooler with lovely cool, room temperature, or warm water. They also sell a few protein powders and merchandise. If I could give this gym 10 stars I would **********.

Expérience fantastique: Hi, my name is Chelsea and I'm a couch pierogi. Or, I used to be. Now DA's teaching me how to lift PROPERLY in a pretentious-free environment that's been a game-changer after many, many (many) years away from training. PT, strength, conditioning, rehab, nutrition support, wellbeing, holy man - they're there for you (and yep, I've needed all listed above). Oh, and then there's kettlebells... never loved hating anything more in my entire life. I'd classify my transition as something that resembles a solid combo of the Hulk and Wonder Woman, right guys?

Expérience fantastique: Exceptional coaches, top notch equipment. David has helped me turn my body around and put it on a path of health and fitness.

Expérience fantastique: I originally started to train in Denman doing PT sessions with my partner and working with Dave. These were absolutely fantastic and each session was catered for each of our goals. The gains we felt in such a short time working out under their direction was unbelievable. We have both now been doing group sessions for around 3 years, and we love the friendly community environment that the gym offers as well as top notch training. The convenience of coming into a full equipped gym with a specific work out plan is absolutely perfect. There's no waiting for any weights or equipment. You get an efficient hard hitting work out every time. In the last 3 years iv had 2 sports related injuries from winter activities. Each of the trainers have helped so much in the course of my rehabilitation, they checked in the start of each class and tailored exercises to ensure I was strengthening and protecting my injuries, to get me back on the roght path and back to my original strength and working forward. Without them taking the time and their knowledge my rehab would have been so much longer. The atmosphere and personality of this gym is second to none, I genuinely couldn't imagine training anywhere else now. If you have the opportunity, definitely drop in and talk to the knowledgeable trainers and try out a class.

Expérience fantastique: Always great time spent!

Expérience fantastique: Love DA! Have done 1:2 personal training and small group classes. Love it. They take the time to get to know you, help you and provide personalized coaching every session. Highly recommend DA!!

Expérience fantastique: Incredible gym with unbeatable coaching

Expérience fantastique: Such a friendly gym. The staff at Denman really make you feel welcome from day one and you feel a part of a lovely, supportive community. Really appreciated how knowledgeable the coaches are, it truly feels like they care about the progress and seeing improvement in each and every person in a class. Would highly recommend this gym to everyone.

Expérience fantastique: It was such a great experience, the coach is very motivating and they challenge you a lot to reach out your goals

Expérience fantastique: Denman Athletics is amazing. Staff are super friendly and welcoming and the space is immaculately kept with top of the line equipment. The strength classes have a great balance of strength work/power work as well as incorporating exercises for mobility and stability. I cannot say enough good things about this place!

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been to so many gyms in Vancouver. Many left me feeling defeated. Unfortunately, gyms sometimes do a very bad job of making everyone feel welcome and comfortable. Not Denman Athletics! Instantly I felt welcomed. The owners are AMAZING humans who do a fantastic job ensuring everyone feels like they are part of the gym, no matter what you’re doing, personal training or group fitness. The staff are friendly and super knowledgeable. I initially signed up for personal training. I was very nervous to sign up for the group classes they offer. In the past, at other gyms, I left these classes feeling worse about myself. I worked with my trainer Allison for 10 sessions. She encouraged me to try the group fitness classes and promised me it would be great and that everyone would be super welcoming. I had a blast! Not only is it fun, but the instructors go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable. All exercises are demonstrated in detail, and the instructors are quick to offer support to those who need help. Anyone new to the class is introduced to everyone. Love this! Everyone said hello. I felt super welcomed. Everyone was encouraging, not once have I felt judged at this gym. Very happy I walked into this gym. I recommend Denman Athletics to anyone that wants to get in shape with great people!

Expérience fantastique: Phenomenal gym, fitness and weight room. Great instructors and classes.

Expérience fantastique: Try it and get hooked on it . Challenging fun!

Expérience fantastique: I’ve never felt more welcome in a gym and have never enjoyed going to the gym more than I have in this past year. The whole team creates an incredible atmosphere that is approachable and fun - it’s something that you will feel from the first moment you step into the gym. All of the coaches are professional, knowledgeable and are always focused on setting everyone in the class up for success regardless of their fitness level. It’s a little gem of a gym in the West End and I could not recommend this place more.

Expérience fantastique: Denman Athletics is a wonderful gym. David and the trainers and extremely knowledgeable and friendly, they will help you with every step of your journey. It is such a lovely community in DA. Everyone is supportive and you will leave every workout with a smile on your face. I cannot recommend this gym highly enough.

Expérience fantastique: One of my personal shockers of 2022 was doing planks in a gym. That is something I never would have predicted. I've been attending small classes focused on strength training 2-3 times a week for a few months. It has a been a journey of sweat and effort but I am a long ways from the first class, when I wanted to run out of the room and was almost crying, feeling so out of shape and out of place. Since then, David and his crew have been gentle with their coaching when needed, encouraging at all times, helpful, motivating and fun. I feel much more energetic, stronger, more flexible, and happier with myself. It's still not easy, but when I found myself feeling tortured and thinking "I'd rather do planks" I had to smile. The classes are mixed, and as a 60+ post-menopausal woman carrying extra weight, both physical and emotional, it hasn't really taken that long to feel comfortable. That is thanks to David and the crew at Denman Athletics. The energy in the class is always positive. I still don't know what all the machines do or what an exercise is by it's name, but I'm stronger, happier and slowly it is the weights I benchpress that is going up, not my own. Thanks David and Denman Athletics!

Expérience fantastique: I've been doing some form of group training for the last 10 years and this gym has the best all around coaches/instruction. Each one of them are professional on all levels. This is a great place to get started or continue your training.

Expérience fantastique: Always enjoy the classes at Denman Athletics. Brilliant atmosphere there - pushed to achieve your goals and have a laugh along the way. The most genuine and dedicated team running the show.

Expérience fantastique: Top notch gym. Cleanest I've ever been in. Brand new Rogue equipment throughout. A wide variety of classes - strength, kettlebell, etc. I've been enjoying personal training myself.

Expérience fantastique: I cannot recommend this gym enough. I have been going to David's classes for almost 3 years and have never enjoyed any gym like I do Denman Athletics. David, Aimee and the team are so welcoming and professional. They provide a really fun and safe environment to work out and learn in and it's a great community to be part of! The gym has the highest quality equipment and every trainor listens to all individuals to try to help them achieve their goals. They are always so professional and enthusiastic. Best gym in Vancouver!!

Expérience fantastique: I joined Denman almost 2 years ago and I am very glad I did. The classes are always a great workout. You always meet both new gym goers and experienced gym goers at they gym, everyone gets a workout to meet their needs. Very welcoming environment.

Expérience fantastique: I always have a good time when I go to the classes here, the coaches are friendly and absolute experts, they make it easy to make progress!

Expérience fantastique: Denman Athletics is a fantastic facility with top class trainers and equipment. I've been attending the gym for over 3 months and personally have seen great results. I've partaken in the 'Monthly Challenge' and this gave me massive motivation to push myself through consistent training and correct nutrition (they give nutrition talks too!). A huge standout is how personable all the trainers are. Dave and his team all make huge efforts to get to know each person and make you feel welcome! They push you in each class while giving you realistic goals which I feel I don't get from other similar gyms. I've recently got the opportunity to work with Aoife in 1 to 1 PT sessions and the detail she gives is second to none, I've no doubt it'll take my training to the next level. Definitely a 5 star facility.

Expérience fantastique: I decided to join Denman Athletics in September this year and I have not looked back. I lost my way with fitness during the pandemic and David and the team have definitely got me back on track. Prior to joining Denman I used to dread going to the gym and now I look forward to every workout. I have more focus, I feel stronger than ever and I’m always encouraged to improve. David is so passionate about what he does and he makes time for everybody, he is so approachable and is always on hand to answer any questions or correct any bad habits. He has each and every clients best interests at heart and has built a great little fitness community in Denman Athletics. Aoife and Clíodhna are fantastic additions and their classes are equally amazing! They push everyone to their limits. Every class is different, it does not get boring or repetitive. If you are looking to start or improve your fitness journey then look no further than Denman Athletics. I highly recommend this place, my experience has been top notch.

Expérience fantastique: I've been working out in Denman Athletics since August and I couldn't recommend it enough. I love the structure of each class and how professional are the trainers. They focus on every detail and make you feel part of the community. They are warm, kind and always encouraging you to do your best. What's more, the facilities are always clean and the equipment is top of the range. I always end up with a huge smile after every class.

Expérience fantastique: This is a great gym with great trainers who really care for their clients, such a welcoming environment from the very start. Would highly recommend Dave and team at DA!

Expérience fantastique: Such a great workout! You get your own squat rack, which means no competing like you do at other gyms. The instructors offer personalized recommendations if dealing with injury. Honestly, could not recommend a better gym.

Expérience fantastique: David and the trainers at Denman Athletics are a team of incredibly knowledgeable, motivating and down to earth people. The classes are awesome - set up in such a way that you can cater to your personal fitness level while working toward your goals. Personal Training with Aoife is amazing - she makes sure you're practicing the movements with proper form which you can further practice in the class settings. All around, an excellent space!

Expérience fantastique: Great facility, Well structured classes and the friendly knowledgeable trainers really hustle to make sure you are getting the most out of your class! Bring your dog!

Expérience fantastique: This is a very well run gym. The team go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The workouts are designed to stretch you and get results, all in a supportive environment. The gym is always spotlessly clean too. I've tried a lot of gyms in Van and I highly recommend.
