Fitness & Gyms near Franklin Square, NY

“Be sure to check out this intimate, semi-private gym. What really sets it apart is the level of personal attention and genuine care the coaches provide. Every session is tailored to individual goals, strengths, and areas that need improvement. Instead of being just another face in a crowded class, you will feel seen, supported, and guided.

The semi-private setup creates the perfect balance—there’s enough space and attention to work on technique and growth, but still the motivation and energy that comes from training alongside others. The coaches are incredibly focused, consistently offering feedback, encouragement, and adjustments to help progress safely and effectively.”

“Comfortable and clean, rarely long wait times for equipment. Only complaint is the difficulty I have had canceling my month-to-month membership which was due to relocating out of the area.”

“I had not been in a gym for a VERY long time when I came to RAF. From the first moment, I felt welcome and challenged. They met me where I was, and pushed me just far enough to help me see what I was capable of. Everyone I've met is on their own journey, and everyone has been supportive and encouraging. Highly recommend!”

“This Orange Theory location is excellent! Daniela provides outstanding service and always follows up with care, and Coach Grace runs the best classes with amazing workouts, energy, and music. Great team and experience overall!”

“I love ye. The trainers, workouts, challenges, the vibe, the music all comes together to make an unforgettable workout. When I first started ye I’m not gonna lie I was intimidated, but the more I came I immediately felt my endurance building, I felt stronger, and my myzones numbers were amazing. I’m burning almost 600-900 calories in just one class. Trust, I definitely recommend, ye is the spot no matter what prior experience you have.”

“Five months ago, after a bone density test, I was told that if I wanted to continue living a healthy and active life, I needed to make some changes. One of those changes absolutely terrified me — joining a gym. I had never been part of a gym before, and the idea of making my body do things I believed were impossible felt overwhelming.

After a lot of research and a few disappointments, Coach Daniel appeared on an Instagram post. Something about it made me visit, and I decided to give it a try. It turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time.

The support, encouragement, and genuine care from Coach Daniel — along with the kindness of the other members — have made such a difference in my life. I feel stronger, more confident, and more hopeful about my health and my future.

Thank you so much. Gloria”

“I've been to several OTF locations, including out of state, and I've never had a bad experience, but this particular location is special. The SA's are always lovely and the coaches here are great. Alyssa, Nikki, Robyn and Shaina are my favorites. They are motivating without being overbearing. I'm still a beginner and can't physically do all of the movements on the floor or hit all of the recommended speeds or inclines on the tread (YET!) and I find the coaches to be encouraging without making me feel ashamed or self conscious. In just the few months that I've been consistently showing up, I see so much improvement in my strength and endurance, but more importantly, maybe, is the improvement in my mental health. If you're thinking about coming for a class and are afraid, don't be. I let so much time pass because I didn't think I could do it. Don't be like me. The first class is free, come give it a try.”

“Was looking for a great gym with experts who also allow you to scale workouts to fit your needs and abilities! Never pressured to go heavier than I need or want and always welcomed with a smile! Was there for eight months and I’m in amazing shape only leaving due to moving for a bit ! Mike and Mark are class acts and so are the members !”

“I started the Guaranteed Weight Loss Program at Peak Performance Fitness in June 2025. To date I have lost 32 lbs and 6% body fat! Titus has been my trainer and has played a big role in keeping me consistent and accountable. He adjusts my workouts and nutrition based on my progress and goals. The gym is a friendly place with a real sense of community. I feel stronger, more confident and happier since starting the program and working with Titus. I would recommend this program to everyone looking to make a positive change in their life.”

“I was in town for work and joined the gym as my main spot to work out which was convenient as I was playing tennis next door.

Facility - Excellent. Clean with plenty of equipment and a turf area for many different activities.

Staff - Friendly & Helpful.

Membership was very easy to freeze / cancel. They are on top of communication which from my experience many gyms tend to be horrible at. I dread having to jump through 300 hoops to have a gym stop charging me. P10 just needs a single email which they promptly respond to.

This is an easy 5/5 from me. Look forwarding to coming back if I am in the area again.”

“I am a virtual client/member of Kfit gym and it has been the best decision I've made for myself in a very long time. The classes are challenging and engaging and the schedule is more than accommodating. More importantly, the coaches are AMAZING. The kindness, support and genuine concern for my wellbeing is unparalleled, especially since I have never met any of them in person. Karina and her team have made me feel a part of this community even from far away (I'm about an hour from the actual gym). I could not be happier or more grateful to have found Kfit.”

“Carle Place OT is great. I workout at a lot of locations but the workout Playlist is the best when Gina is the coach. I strongly recommend this location. Great vibes, super clean and great coaches.”

“Hollywood Health Club in Long Beach has become one of my favorite gyms because it offers everything you need without feeling overwhelming. The facility is spacious, well maintained, and has a great variety of equipment for all types of training. Whether you're focused on strength training, cardio, endurance work, or simply staying active, it's easy to build a consistent routine here.

A special shoutout to Margarita and Freddy, who are always welcoming, helpful, and genuinely make the gym a better place to be. The club stays clean, the atmosphere is motivating, and the members are there to train seriously without creating an intimidating environment.

One of the biggest advantages is the range of recovery and wellness options, including both traditional and infrared saunas, as well as a cold plunge. The outdoor training area is fantastic during the warmer months and adds even more flexibility to your workouts. Whether you're a powerlifter, runner, Hyrox athlete, CrossFit enthusiast, bodybuilder, yoga lover, or Pilates fan, this gym has something for you. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a complete fitness facility with a great community.”

“Amazing workouts, great coaches and peers. You will not be disappointed. I have lost 15 pounds in the two months that I have been there, one hour in the morning, fast, furious, fun and effective. Come on and give The Sanctuary a try.”

“I took my first class very early one morning, so it was just me and one other person. This made the class feel very personal, and the instructor was able to train us on a better level. It was a 30 minute class that consisted of using the climber machine half the time and then doing light weight lifting the other half. I wasn't crazy about the machine because it was a bit too intense for me, but I enjoyed the other half of the class. The instructor was awesome and kept pushing us beyond what we thought we could handle. I don't think this is the type of studio I would buy a membership at, but I would buy some drop in classes.”

“Joining CrossFit Seize the Day in 2024 has honestly been one of the best decisions for me and my family. From day one, Coach Jeff and his wife Kathy have been incredibly welcoming not just to me, but to my husband, our kids, and even our friends who’ve come along.

What really sets this gym apart is the sense of community. It’s not just a place to work out it’s a place where you feel supported, encouraged, and genuinely cared for. Whether you’re new or experienced, everyone is made to feel like they belong.

The coaching is top-notch, the environment is motivating, and the people make it special. So grateful to be part of this community!??”

“I had THE BEST experience at this gym! I came in for a power snatch seminar with coach Ryan and coach Dom. They made this newbie feel so confident! I’ve never been able to do a power snatch before and they were so detailed and so patient. Coach Ryan videotaped me to help with my form, and Coach Dom was the perfect motivation buddy on that day. I’m not a member there, but they treated me like family. Will be back!”

“My go-to studio!! I discovered this location over a year ago, and I’ve been lucky enough to recommend it to some close friends and now we’re here every single week. Literally!! Every!! Single!! Week!! Every coach is extremely motivating. They correct your form, push you to work harder, and also remind you to take a break when needed. I really love the encouragement each coach provides. I’ve had the privilege of taking classes with almost every coach, and every single one has gone above and beyond to take care of us. No one ever feels left out.
Matt at the front desk is always a pleasure!! He makes checking in super easy and takes the time to explain any questions I have.
I work with Jacqueline every Monday and Tuesday, and she is incredibly encouraging. My friends and I even take double classes with her because she’s just that amazing. (While I’ve taken most of my classes with her, every coach I’ve worked with has been just as great.) Lead coaches Eddie and soon-to-be Bridget (congrats!!!!!) have also been nothing but the best. My splat points are always insanely high in their classes!!

Thank you all for being so amazing. This studio is truly a breath of fresh air; full of motivation and encouragement. I look forward to each and every session!”

“I love BBB. The instructors are friendly, energetic and most importantly motivating. The facility is always clean. The desk people are incredibly helpful and welcoming. The BBB experience is fun, rewarding and challenging.”

“This is going to sound cliche, but Lurie Fit University has been game-changing for me. Life has only gotten more and more stressful and busy as I got older, and, unfortunately, I used that as an excuse to drop off the bandwagon on taking care of myself. Enter Tyler. A free trial class and three+ years of training has given me a new appreciation for being active. I feel much more fulfilled, energetic...before this gym, something was missing. I'm grateful to have found that missing piece. I don't do a lot for myself, but I encourage anyone to try the class, you'll be happy you did.”

“I love this gym better than the city gyms. Staff is nice. Machines and weights are great. Never have a problem with parking. For those that complain about parking I am guessing they just don’t want to walk a little further from the back to the front ?? Kind of defeats the purpose of going to a gym if that’s your only complaint .”

“Interactive, engaging, clean and friendly. Very good place to stay motivated to stay fit. This gym would be a reason for me to live in NYC. Love all the instructors. They know what they are aiming for and each station is planned according to your strength. I LOVE GOING THERE.”

“If you’re looking for a one to one trainer experience and don’t know where to start, look no further. The trainers at Plasse Strength are all friendly and professional. Each session with my trainer is tailored to me and my goals. It’s never overcrowded. The gym is fully equipped with all sorts of machines and free weights. It’s doesn’t fall short on playing music to keep you motivated. Strongly recommend whether you’re a newbie or haven’t gone back to the gym in a while.”

“I was just looking for a gym to Jumpstart my fitness for 30 days and then planned to run outside and lift at home BUT the staff, classes, energy, music and environment hooked me. This is a great workout and community. OTF Oceanside is fantastic”

“Been coming almost a year. Great classes and instructors! I wish the instructors wouldn't call on the class members to lead routines. It is a great opportunity to boost self confidence, yes, but these instances should be limited to 1-2 songs MAX per class. I prefer the energy of the instructors.”

“My name is Maria Bard and I have been a Healthtrax member at the Garden City facility, for some time. I have only words of gratitude for all the people working there. Everyone is nice, helpful and professional. My life has changed for the better since I go to the gym. Especially, I would like to commend Mary, our excellent instructor in Aqua Fitness Therapy Pool on Mondays and Thursdays at 6 pm. Mary is also in charge of Aqua Tabata Cool Pool on Tuesdays at 6 pm. Mary’s classes are fabulous, she is an outstanding trainer, we follow a pre-choreographed routine with an incredible good selected music. She explains the reasoning behind the exercises and corrects our posture to avoid injury. Mary has been an inspiration to me, after her classes I feel at the same time full of energy and relaxed. Thanks to Mary I feel confident that my workout at her classes has increased my equilibrium and the strength to be able to perform all the exercises. I highly recommend joining Mary’s classes to everyone.”

“I dropped in at Saturday morning
And the coach get me in a warmly welcome
The Box are fantastic with a lot of machines plates bars and more
I wish I could stay for another train
Thanks from Israel 🙏🏽”

“I have been going to Ken for a few months now and I feel stronger and better all around. He keeps the workouts interesting and always does something different each time while making sure you are being safe and using proper form. I would highly recommend him as a trainer.”

“An amazing gym. For my menopausal mama’s strength training is paramount for long term health and bone density! Come down you will not regret it! You will be comfortable and well taken care of. No previous gym experience needed. Ask for MAX!!!”

“Fly High Fit is an amazing studio. The personal training is incredibly rewarding and truly tailored to individual goals. The trainers are supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in your progress. I’ve also seen the aerial classes, and they look fun, exciting, and well-structured in a welcoming environment. Highly recommend Fly High Fit for anyone looking for personalized training or something unique and energizing.”
