Anytime Fitness Oak Cliff is the PLACE. I've been walking here to work out here for two years (I live in an Exxir property down the road), and working out at this Anytime Fitness is easily the second best part of my day. My post-workout Chipotle run takes the cake for best part. The owners, Jacqui and Renee, are personable and attentive, the equipment is plentiful (they have three cable machines!), and the coaches are great. I've had workouts go 20 minutes longer than intended because Coach Sergio and I are debating over-tourism in the Greek Isles. And I don't even pay for coaching! He's just chill like that. If you live nearby, joining up is a no brainer. Way cheaper than the area's class based gyms like Jungle, Oak Cliff Pilates, or F45, and you'll be just as (if not more) healthy if you do some basic research first or work with their coaches. read more

Anytime Fitness - Myself and Fiancée at Anytime Fitness Bishop Arts. - Gyms Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Nice club, pretty spacious and a good variety of machines. They could use more leg and arm stations, there's a ton cardio machines, too many. Gyms think they need 24 cardio machines, not a good balance. The parking lot situation is problematic. You have to validate as soon as you set foot in the gym and there are break ins often, you'll see broken glass at every other parking space, not even exaggerating. Not the safest part of town. read more

Anytime Fitness - Parking lot with broken glass. - Gyms Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Great Place!. Small, extremely well maintained boutique gym. Owners are very involved, and you are greeted by name when entering. Membership gives you 24hr access to any of their gyms. Highly recommended! read more

This Anytime Fitness has a LOT of cool machines that I've never seen before. Super quiet with some old outdated machines, you know this place has been loved and used. Great and clean gym for being in Bishop Arts. read more

I was a member here for about seven years. Only quit because we moved from the area. Great little gym, clean, and well managed. The owners did a great job keeping it open through COVID and are often in themselves interacting with members. I primarily used weightlifting equipment and was happy with what they have. Great gym! read more

I see signs asking me to pay to park. Already paid my gym membership sorry; needs to be included. Lots of other gyms with free parking thanks but no thanks. read more

Great facility and everyone is nice. But the parking is absolutely horrible sometimes and that can be really frustrating.

UPDATE - So after weeks of trying to get help I had a great conversation with Renee. My concerns were valid, and the contract was not clear. We worked thru the contract questions and resolved the communication issues as well. We have a solution that both parties can live with. read more

Great gym, the fact that is always open is a big plus, my work doesn't allow me to have a normal schedule so a gym like this is my only solution, so I love that about this gym. Also I love the people working here, very positive all if them, always ready for action, always pushing you to be more than the best you can be. read more

I gave 4 instead of 5 stars because I had signed up online for a 7 day pass but when I showed up at the gym the owner and zach the front agent told me there is no 7 day pass and its only 1 day. But the pass not only prominently shows up on their website, it shows up prominently on their Yelp page as well and it is a current promotion. I really hope I wasnt the victim of racism. The people (and businesses) can be so slick with it out here in Dallas. My review is below: ________________________________________________ Today I visited this gym. I was impressed. It's a secure facility. The equipment is all brand new. I met with Zach the front agent and he was friendly and easy to speak with. There were no high pressure sales tactics. I also met the owner Renee and she was nice as well. The best part about this gym are the private restrooms and showers. There are no stalls like in other gyms. You can close and lock the door behind you and you have complete privacy. There are three of these and when I entered the other two were unoccupied so I dont think there's usually a rush. I really liked the treadmills. You can watch videos and television on them. I've been to many gyms and this is my first time seeing this. I thought it was awesome that the treadmills come with inspirational workout stories and documentaries already programmed into them and those I watched were very interesting. One of the documentaries featured a young man who became a distance runner. He was in Paraguay in the mountains and training. He spoke of his life and the struggle and the views of the mountains were just amazing. Another video featured a distance runner on Route 66. I think that's in Arizona. He spoke of his struggles and how running helped him. This documentary was also put together very well. It was very professionally done. Overall the environment at this gym is very laid back and comfortable. I also liked the size of the gym. It was a nice size with everything in close reach. I've had memberships at other gyms that were so large. A few of them were two stories in buildings that were huge. A gym really doesnt need to be that large. I have some of my best workouts in small spaces. Another plus for this location on Bishop is the ample parking. The parking lot is a nice size and the walk is not far from car to front door. There are wall sized windows going around the building and from most places in the gym you can look outside and see your vehicle. The gym is also near many popular eateries with one of the most popular, Lockhart Smokehouse, being right around the corner. Literally walking distance away. The gym is located in a trendy part of Oakcliff in a community known as 'Bishop Arts'. This location has so many pluses compared to other, larger, gyms or just other gyms period. The one thing I found surprising was the fact that I had selected a free 7 day pass online and its routed to the gym's owner who is Renee but when I made it to the gym there was no 7 day pass. Only a 1 day courtesy pass and the owner explained to me that the gyms are franchised and they make their own rules. Its weird that on their Yelp page it again says free 7 day pass and this is featured prominently on their page at the top. Yelp needs to remove this because this isn't true. It also says this on their website it says this on their Yelp page as well but in person its .. 'nope.. only one day. I would say this location is definately worth the money if you're looking for a nice, quiet, comfortable place to workout with great, state of the art equipment. read more

I travel a lot, so I am at different Anytime locations. I found myself without my fob, and Devon, at this location, helped me out asap. I was in and workout without issue. She was friendly and helpful. It was a very welcoming experience. I enjoyed this location as they have plenty of equipment and a good bit of variety. No waiting for a machine or weights at all. read more

Like Chrystal S., I am leaving a review to complain about the absolutely ridiculous process of cancelling my membership with Anytime Fitness. The physical space of the gym is clean, the two or three trainers I've worked with are AMAZING human beings, and it's an extremely convenient place to get to, no matter the time of day. I called in December (the 17th, apparently) to cancel my membership after many months of not working out. I had been a faithful member, attending the group classes on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings, until I took an international trip, got a new job, and was then never able to return to my routine. In the new year, I absolutely could not afford to pay for a membership I didn't use, so I called the gym and spoke with a man. His voice was unfamiliar, and I suspect he was a newer hire or one of the trainers with whom I'd never worked. I don't recall his name, but I think it was something generic like...Scott? Anyhow, he assured me that my membership would be cancelled as of January 15. January 15th just passed, and I had a charge from Anytime Fitness. So it became clear that I needed to investigate and advocate for myself, because this mysterious person on the other end of a month-old phone call had NOT followed through on our conversation. Because I work all the darn time, my partner called to resolve the issue. They asked if I had any written proof of cancellation. Of course not, because I had trusted the integrity of the wonderful owners and trainers I had met in the past. So my partner had to go to the gym and demand they officially cancel my membership. Apparently, they had a written record of my cancellation on their end, but planned to continue charging me until I did something about it? I mean, I heard all of this secondhand from my partner, but it seems...pretty egregious. Lesson learned, and I will be requesting a written record of any other cancelled memberships for any possible membership in the future. read more

Had to put in a review. This gym is close to me and I thought of switching from my current gym. Signed up for the free 7 day pass....got an email confirming my pass. Was bombarded by texts to scheduled a tour....I did and was ready to work out.... I was told ....no, we dont honor the 7 day pass. I have to pay to work out for a week. I clearly said I have an email stating I have the pass. Nope, its an independent franchise and there was some fine print that says it might not be honored. This is bait and switch and its illegal. Im sure you have some legal fine print which covers you a$$ but I wont do business with anyone that operates like this. Shady. read more

Gym is clean and there is a lot of workout equipment. But if you pay $600 a month for group trainings and personal training, you would expect the trainers to want to be there and serve all the members. Unfortunately, some members are catered to and some are treated as an annoyance. read more

A nice, very well equipped and clean fittness center with very nice owners and staff. We stayed for few days in the area and bought access for one week. I personally liked most the functional area and free weight area but there is a very good selection of rowing machines, cross trainers, assault bikes, watt bikes, ski ergs, treadmills as well. Definitely worth of all recommendations! read more

Anytime Fitness - Gyms Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Let me first explain the 1 star. The one star has nothing to do with the gym cleanliness, experience, or employees. Most times that I have come into the gyms, they have cleaning supplies and a fairly clean facility. Rather, this review is my overall experience with the company, as well as my experience with: 1. Cancelling my gym membership 2. The process of what I have had to go through when I have dealt with management over any issue. Kathy was my initial experience with Anytime fitness at the Custer Pkwy location in Richardson. She was very informative, very accommodating, and explained things to me about what the fees entailed at the gym. I was very happy when I signed up even though it was slightly more expensive than other gyms such as Planet Fitness. This was two years ago in January of 2015. I agreed to sign up for 2 years and did not breach my contract. Everything was fine, until after a financial hardship I needed to cancel my membership. Here's where things get beyond weird and scamming started occurring. When I called the original store manager, Kathy, to cancel she told me that my gym had been switched to the Bishop Arts Center location and told me to call that store. Being that she asked about praying for my financial situation, and she obviously seemed nice, I told her that she could. Assuming that she was saying that she would send up a silent prayer for me. ...she sent a text prayer to my phone. Along with more uncomfortable 'trust in him sister' messages. That was the most bizarre experience and most uncomfortable I have ever felt in my entire life. It was highly unprofessional and cringe-worthy. But to be fair, I had assumed wrong and therefore opened the gateway for her religious viewpoints to be expressed to me. So after calling and leaving a message with the Bishop Art location, the gym manager (a woman) called me back. After fidgeting around on her computer while I was holding on the line, she explained that I was not coming up in her system and added in that 'This normally doesn't happen' and 'sorry that it is taking so long' After waiting for several minutes, she became nervous and told me to call ABC Financial in order to cancel my membership since she could not 'locate my information'. She wished me 'good luck, babygirl' and hung up the phone. But this 'babygirl' had no luck, and running out of chill very fast. I was a little flustered, however, I told her that I would call and cancel via phone. When I called, they put me through to a person that after waiting for 20 minutes on the phone, and taking all of my information, explained that I cannot cancel my membership over the phone. When I expressed from the start of the call that is what I wanted to do. So thank you, ABC Financial for not training your employees properly to begin with. Or maybe you did so the company could bleed out another $42.22 from my bank account. At this point being more than a little upset, I called and left a voicemail that I would cancel my card and they needed to call me back to cancel my membership or I would report their company. The woman did call me back, but I had hit a point that I no longer wanted to talk with anyone and looked up my options online. I learned that I could send certified mail to their location, would still be charged an additional 30 days for cancellation, and that was how it was going to have to be done. So here we are, 4 employees and 1 month and 5 days later, they will finally cancel my account. I will never, ever, sign up for Anytime Fitness again. read more

Gym is very clean. The wipes actually work well. (I was a member at life time for a few years and the wipes don't work for sh*t. You get a really cool heart rate monitor before your fitness assessment. It's really fun to compete with the other members of the gym. They have everything you need. Staff is super helpful and friendly. I like that for the most part, people respect the head phone rule. Great equipment. read more

Absolutely poor professionalism business etiquette and customer service. I called ahead to schedule an appointment to join the gym I was left outside disregarded for about 15-17 minutes I rang the bell over and over and I called the number to no avail I even knocked on the window for a Gym representative to acknowledge me and still nothing it wasn't until she was walking out somebody else that I finally had to yell for her attention and make her aware that I was there to join the gym After finally being let in I had mentioned that I was a member of Gympass a gym membership through my insurance after confirming I was eligible however I would not be afforded a key fob and that I would only be able to work during business hours with an employee there keep in mind I had to stand outside for 15 to 17 minutes ringing the doorbell knocking on the glass just to be able to get let in. With the gym pass I have an app and it gives details information about the membership in it it clearly states that I would have to pay a five dollar fee in order to obtain a key fob. I showed her the print and again was denied stating that the fob is 40 dollars. I then proceeded to say that i have a previous key fob from anytime fitness and she again denied that. I offered to buy a new on she denied that as well. As a member of the neighbors community i never felt more judged and offended i feel this was borderline racist. Saying i have to only workout when you have a staff member and would not be able to work outside of my work hours ? This was truly saddening and upsetting i have had access to many other anytime fitness gyms with no issues via my insurance plan but never have i ever faced an issue such as this. I will be communicating this through the corporate chain read more

Anytime Fitness - Gyms Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I did quite a bit of research on gyms near or around Oak Cliff before deciding to join Anytime Fitness. When walking in for the first time, I was greeted by the co-owner, Jacqui Bliss and given a full tour of the facility, introduced to the equipment- the normal gym stuff. As you walk in, you realize that it is indeed a small facility, but packed full of great quality equipment and with a large classroom that includes Expresso bikes (for more on those- http://fitnessblog.dallasnews.com/archives/2008/04/post-14.html), yoga mats, bands, balls, etc. All the cardio equipment comes equipped with a flat panel tv monitor that has full access to expanded digital cable/music. I was introduced to the security alarm necklaces that make the gym safe to be in 24 hours a day. That's right folks, this gym is actually open 24/7- unlike 24 hour fitness! Post tour, there was no hard sell, just a review of the specials currently being offered, price scales, personal trainers, etc. My partner and I were lucky enough to join when they were running a special that included a 6 week membership and 6 personal training sessions for a set fee. For both of us, we felt immediately at ease in the gym. Every time we walk in, we're greeted by either one of the owners or a staff member. The equipment is always super clean, in perfect working condition, and normally available with little to no wait. The gym offers either 3 or 4 bathrooms that each are equipped with a shower- and one of them is handicap accessible. While I haven't been to any of them yet, classes currently offered are Boot Camp Yoga Zumba There may be more I just have noticed yet. For some classes there is a fee- Zumba and Boot Camp come to mind, but some are also free- Yoga. While you are there, you will see a few people with their personal trainers. Unlike the training at some gyms I've experienced, I've noticed that every person they train has a different/customized workout. The list of certifications their trainers hold is pretty impressive- lots of acronyms that I've been told mean that they have more than just good test taking skills. As part of full disclosure, I've worked out with Jacqui- my partner with Juan, so we are perhaps a bit biased. One thing I like that most, some people might not value- this gym isn't just about the equipment, but about the people using the equipment. You're likely to run into your neighbor, the server at the pizza place, or that person you keep seeing in all of your favorite restaurants. People are likely to talk to you while you work out, but are cordial enough to leave you alone if you're curt or evidently out of breath. In closing, this gym and its members represent everything that's great with Oak Cliff- and a great way to burn off the taco's/cocktails! read more

Really a horrible place. Everyone knows that dealing with the fitness industry is slightly akin to dealing with Mafioso. This gym is no different. First, it's setup strangely with the small individual bathrooms with showers. Unfortunately, the small bathrooms are "dumping grounds"...if you catch my drift...which with their poor circulation and low ceilings provide quite the olfactory experience on the way to the locker area. Frankly, it's a challenge to use the facilities if you require a place to change and shower before work, for instance. It's especially bad in the morning, when nearly every trainer seemingly waits until they get to work to have their morning oblutions. Second, it's the usual problems dealing with gyms and finances. I was very skeptical about a gym membership because of the various ways they deceive and try to keep the memberships running in perpetuity. When I got the membership, I explained I work contract jobs and am occasionally subject to my income drying up overnight. At the time, it was "no big deal...We can freeze your account in those times." When the need arose, actually getting the assistance required some considerable effort as suddenly the "freeze" wasn't the simple matter it was described to be. They actually auto renewed my contract while my account was "frozen." I understand the need to run a business with predictable income where possible, but sadly this gym...like so many in its industry...is happy to deceive you where possible to inside you to join. Don't make the mistake I did and allow these folks to pull their payments directly from your checking account. If you're in doubt at all, don't join. Find a nice YMCA near you or a gym that offers more to its customers. Your nose and pocketbook will appreciate it. read more

If you require a gym in Oak Cliff, Anytime Fitness would be a good choice... Because let's be honest... it's almost the only choice. If you are flexible in your gym location I would explore other options. Mainly, I was told that I would either need to sign up for a year at $55/month or two years for $45/month. Go down the road and you can find a plethora of other gyms that you can get for $25/month on a month-to-month membership. Also, their 7 Day Pass is a joke. You have to come in during their "business hours" to work out and their which is somewhere around 8am-7pm M-R, 9-2pm F, and some other odd hours on the weekends. This review is nothing against their staff or customer service. It just seems very inconvenient and not the best deal for someone looking for a gym. But, if you would like to pay 2x the normal rates for a gym, the facilities looked pretty decent. read more

Love this gym!! The staff is very friendly, the gym and equipment is always clean and you're never elbow to elbow trying to get a workout in! I train with Bambi and she is great!! She is extremely knowledgable, works with me to modify exercises due to an injury and is a great motivator! read more

I have been working out at Anytime Fitness for a year now, and have no complaints whatsoever. The staff are friendly and helpful, the equipment is clean and new, and the gym users are courteous and friendly. I have been using their personal training sessions to amazing satisfaction, and highly recommend this gym to anyone in the area. read more

Most people's concerns when it comes to a gym is the quality of the equipment, the trainers and followed by the cleanliness of the gym. I give Anytime an A+ on all of the above. Go see Jacqui, you won't be disappointed. read more

I cancelled my membership back in march or april and was informed that it would NOT auto renew and would be cancelled. I checked my account and I have been charged monthly since that time period. They required me to go in person to cancel, which I did. Now they have informed me that they do not have any notes regarding my cancellation. read more

Anytime Fitness in the Bishop Arts District of Oak Cliff is Awesome! The facilities are clean, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable, the equipment is first rate and as the name indicates, the gym is open 24/7/365. So no matter when you need to go the facilities are available. Before work, at lunch or after work. Even later at night, you can hit the weights and get your cardio workout in a safe and secure environment. read more

I have frequented various gyms (from well known to apartment gyms). This Anytime Fitness located conveniently off Bishop Ave is and is closest to me. The staff here is helpful and fantastic and willing to help with technique and new skills whenever. There are plenty of cardio equipment and enough free weights for all. I love to use their various ropes, step ups, and even their included tanning services! Most importantly, it's open all day, everyday! Even on snow days. It's all controlled access with your own personal fob. Oh! And personal restrooms with private showers. This place is a great fit! read more

I enjoy the positive, clean environment at Anytime Fitness, where everyone knows your name. It's a very positive & motivating experience every time I am there & when I'm not I get the same attention via text or phone, asking if I'm well & letting me know that I am being missed. I'm not just another member at the gym. My personal weight loss goal is just as much their mission as it is mine. read more

Anytime Fitness - Gyms Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Bills itself as a 'private club' but is crowded as any gym you can compare it to during peak afternoon and evening times. Parking sucks due to the heavy restaurant traffic. (Gloria's/Cafe Brazil/Bishop Arts area...not anyone's fault, its just a beating) The 24 hour key fob access is basically what you're paying for as compared to other chains, but its hard to imagine making back that value with a 1am or 3am workout. Billing was the worst of the worst case scenarios here, specifically cancellations. They really only offer long term membership options with a 1 month offer thrown in that was too much, so you ultimately are doing a long term contract. The billing company they use is ABC Financial so half my angst should be directed their direction I suppose, but from what I understand according to others, waiting 3 or 4 months for action after you think you've cancelled with them is standard operating procedure. Not the most knowledgeable staff ever assembled. Better options are Verandah club with more parking and tennis or Clairevista on Sylvan Ave. with no long term contract, all they do is monthly :) and access to Belmont Hotel Pool read more

Best gym ever!! First of all, Renee and Jacqui, the gym owners are fantastic! They are very active and involved in the gym. They have created a nice neighborhood gym environment that is convivial and friendly. I have been a member for 5+ years. The free evening classes are fun. The equipment is always in top operating condition. The gym and equipment are all very clean - no nasty smells. Plenty of sanitizing wipes to clean equipment after use. The gym is not oversold, so there isn't usually a wait on any of the equipment (even at 5pm!) Personal trainers are available and are eager to give coaching and advise. No hard selling to purchase personal training, like some places I've been to. I like being able to go anytime 24/7 and the gym is less than 1 mile from my house :) read more

Love this gym. Pleasant people. Clean equipment! Great location right in the middle of bishop arts. The employees are always around and not to mention friendly! My husband and I have been there for almost two years and don't plan to go anywhere! Tanning beds and bathrooms easily accessible and clean! read more

The gym is great! It is well equipped and clean. But if you have any type of chemical sensitivities, do not come here! The smell is way too strong and they don't have a a fragrance free environment as some gyms are starting to do. You will walk out with a migraine. read more

First time trying anytime fitness. They were on class pass for the burn class with Sergio and it was super intense. I was the only one to show up so I had one on one training. The class usually only has 3-4 people though. It's a high intensity circuit training and it was a great workout. Sergio kept me motivated and was very encouraging. I would definitely return. read more

Still loving Anytime Fitness in Bishop Arts! The trainers are great! I take lots of fun classes with Bambi and she is fantastic! I have been taking the base, build and burn classes they are making a huge difference in my fitness! I highly recommend it! Fun trainer, fun people and great classes = great gym! read more

Very friendly owners and mostly all you need for your workout. The only thing is parking can be tough and space is limited when they have classes. read more

This gym is great! The owners and trainers are very personable and knowledgeable. Positive, friendly. and focused atmosphere.

Slick sales go into this money making machine. Beware of getting locked into a 2 year contract at 50+ a month plus overly high startup fees. I joined for the convenience and because they are nationwide and I travel for work. I've found they seem to exist more in small cities and rural areas. If you travel to mostly major cities, join a different gym. This is the nicest/cleanest Anytime Fitness I've been in and staff is totally cool, but I still think it's overpriced for what you get. I give this gym a higher rating than I think the company deserves. read more

I've been a member for several years. It's very convenient to come in on my unpredictable schedule and also to feel safe there late at night. read more

Amazing atmosphere! I live in Mesquite, there is one down the street from me, BUT absolutely nothing compares to the energy of Bishop Arts Anytime Fitness! Management and staff are super friendly! read more

This is one of the nicest gyms I've been to. Since the day I joined 6 years ago, the gym has consistently been maintained in top top shape. They've even taken it through a complete remodel! The owners are hands-on and if you ever have a question or issue, they are attentive and very responsive. They, and their employees, take the time to try and know all the members by name. I also work out with one of their personal trainers, Jacqui, who is the best trainer I've ever had. The owners require trainers to have certification and also support them with ongoing education opportunities. I can recommend this gym with no hesitation to anyone looking for a great place to exercise! read more
