“The Transformation Station lives up to its name in every way. Once you enter the facility, you are surrounded by highly motivated people who want to follow a healthier path to living. The leadership is solid, the environment is friendly and non-judgemental, the workouts are invigorating and adaptable to your specific needs. Coach Christina, the owner, is very knowledgeable in the areas of physical health and nutrition.”

“I was debating on whether to join a gym or CrossFit, and after talking with a friend who is a member at Insight I decided to give it a try. I’m so glad I did. The coaches are fantastic, they really encourage you, and help you to perform the exercises correctly. There is a nice community, the members are very welcoming and supportive. All the workouts can be scaled to your ability, so no matter your fitness level you can feel a sense of accomplishment at the end of the workout.”

“Anytime Fitness Barrie has been fantastic! I have been a member for nearly two years. The facilitates are always clean and they have more than enough exercise machines to meet whatever gym needs I’ve had. The location of the gym is super convenient, so glad the location is where it is.

The staff and owner are very welcoming and proactive in being present on sight.

Special shoutout to Megan and other staff that run the social media. A big part of why I signed up for AF was because of how active the instagram was(and still is) and seeing so many women at the forefront of it. Knowing that the site was being managed by other women made the experience of signing up and working out weekly less intimating.”

“I have been going Orangetheory Barrie For three years and absolutely love it. I first started out when I was training for a new job and it got me through to be successful in obtaining my goal. More recently I’ve just had my first baby. I attended Orangetheory all throughout to ensure a healthy pregnancy and delivery. Most recently I am enjoying the new maximizing movement classes to help with my body postpartum. It is truly a gym that can help during all seasons of life.”

“I currently have a membership paying $15/month at the purple and yellow place (you know which one) and for various reasons I wanted to try something different and better suited to me. I bought a day pass to AK and Amy at the front desk was pleasant and answered all my questions and was happy to help. When I first walked onto the workout floor I couldn't help but feel really intimidated by all the machines and intermediate gym goers (and I'm not a newby at a gym but I'm also not the bodybuilder type either) just to put things into perspective. That feeling wore off pretty quickly as I got acclimated to the new/better vibe and environment. I must say that I was super impressed about the cleanliness of the gym and the men's lockerroom, better than any other gym I've been to.

The only gripe I have and reason why I rated it a 4 star instead of 5 is obviously due to the price of $100/month with no other membership level to choose from. I do understand it is a business and it's obvious the membership prices reflect the quality of amenities and machines, I just wished you guys had a lower level option that didn't include, say, towel service and tanning for example and making the bi-weekly fee $35 (or even $75 monthly). A lot of pros for sure but I'd love to see more membership options with less amenities included. I asked about getting a few friends together and joining AK to see if that would lower the cost but apparently it changed and that discount is now only for people who live at the same residence now.

All in all, it's a top notch gym and community I'd love to be a member at someday, I just hope there will be a promotion in the near future to be able to join. Keep up the good work AK!”

“Did two drop-in classes and it was great! Very welcoming people and the coaches pay really good attention to technique. I have been doing CrossFit for over three years but I picked up some new stuff here! Highly recommend!.”

“Hands down, joining HB Fitness was one of the best decisions I have ever made! I've joined many gyms in my past, but I have never found one like HB Fitness. The workouts are SO FUN and the trainers/coaches are truly inspiring. The workouts/classes are led by personal trainers who give hands on instant feedback and adjustments/modfications during workouts/classes. The music is blaring and the entire atmosphere is inclusive, energetic, and exciting. I've always been super apprehensive when it comes to a gym setting. However, all of the trainers/coaches have made me feel super comfortable, capable, and confident.I recommend attending Caley's classes! Caley is personable, always so upbeat, motivating, and extremely knowledgable. Since day one, Caley has offered me tons of support and encouragement during my fitness journey. Everyday she provides me with guidance and support in helping me achieve my fitness potential and goals. I really like how she give me tips and tricks to get the most out of every workout. My favourite class is spinning - Sweat, Vibe, and Ride! Caley provides the class with different workouts (you will never do the same workout twice). She has high energy, a killer playlist, and she will always push you to your limits! Everyday, I look forward to walking through the doors because she makes me feel so welcomed and comfortable.I’ve been attending HB Fitness for six months and I am already seeing a big change in my energy levels and body. It’s great! 10/10 recommend!”

“I called LA Fitness because my son who drove in severely bad weather and didn’t check in with me. As a concerned mother I was beside myself worrying. I called and a wonderful, attentive employee named Emma answered the call. I admitted I was beyond concerned and apologized for asking her to check if he was there. She walked the gym and found him, told him to call me and he did! A lot of employees wouldn’t be bothered to care or bother to go above and beyond as Emma did. I also talked to her manager Lock ( not sure the spelling) and he was lovely and happy knowing his employee was so diligent and empathetic. Thank you Emma and I appreciate you taking the time to help calm my anxiety. Happy New Year and Thank you ?”

“Shout out to Andy and Harshil! Just started to come to this location and have been greeted with amazing customer service. The gym is clean and equipment/weights are in their allocated spots.”

“One of the best places to train especially if you're a college student. Has all the necessary equipment aimed towards most individuals fitness goals.

Has two huge spaces dedicated to weights and stretching with ample accessory equipment to aid athletic training.

The basketball court is HUGE providing space for other sports such as badminton with routine organization of various competitions encouraging sport and movement.”

“A great place , love the manager, Libby, they all say good morning and have a great day when I leave . I had a small issue , and it was resolved before I left. Keep up the great work .”

“LA Fitness South Barrie is overall a solid gym and does a lot of things right.

The treadmills are excellent — plenty of them, well-maintained, and rarely out of service. The equipment selection is strong across cardio and weights, and I rarely feel limited in my workouts. The swimming pool is another big plus: clean, spacious, and well-managed. On top of that, the Aqua Fit group classes are well-run and consistently popular, which says a lot about their quality.

That said, the men’s sauna has been closed for over a year, and that’s the only reason this isn’t a 5-star gym. Staff keep saying it’s being worked on, but there has been no visible progress. If you look at online reviews, people have been complaining about this for a long time now. At this point, it honestly feels like management has decided it’s not worth repairing due to the cost — which is disappointing given the membership fees.

If the sauna issue were resolved, this would easily be a top-tier gym in the area. Until then, still a very good facility, just not perfect.”

“I only gave 4 stars because of the hours. They are no longer 24 hours. The classes are definitely not for Beginners lol. And one of the machines that I really like has been broken for quite some time. The rest of the services are great!!”

“A really good gym. Has everything you would expect plus a few extras like massage chair and tanning booth. The staff is really friendly and helpful, a Canadian company, and the lowest price you will find.”
