Someone stole my $30 water bottle at this location in the change room, and the staff won't do…read moreanything to ask anyone who took my bottle and call out the behavior that this is a crime, the staff keep saying its misplaced, but where is the one thats exactly the same, and why will this person take home a bottle when he didnt bring one in the first place. This place is so dumb and full of excuse and wont admit theft when as mentioned in other review dozens thef has already happened here this year and they should put posters with counts of theft reported to warn people never bring anything that has any value. And they tried to shut me up to tell people what happened to me. So disgusting. never again. Please be aware that people steal your stuff at YMCA. Just imagine how disgusting it is that you are in the same room with thieves. Worst waste of money and headach instead of having fun. Also please be aware that some people's locker got cut in the change room. They do nothing to prevent that from happening. I would suggest to go someplace with better security measures. Don't think it won't happen to you. By the way, the staff were lying to me, at first they said they will contact me if they found my stuff. But later when I confronted them about camera footage, they said I need to file a report to the police about theft. And they were making fun of me reporting 30 dollar, as if that's not a lot of money to lose and I really like the bottle and this is the second time i lost a bottle there. Ymca should fire those staff. Apparently there are a lot of fake reviews added by the management. They've also blocked me for telling the truth in their social media, which violated my freedom of speach. Hope they go bankrupt soon! If you want to get your valuables stolen, feel free to go at your own risk

This is a place where people are supposed to feel a sense of community and safe, especially…read morechildren. This location absolutely does not live up to those standards. My 13 year old daughter was using the gym there when a grown male began harassing her. Here are the facts to what happened and what the management's response was. I dropped my daughter off to do her work out at this location. Unfortunately, my wife and I were both in the middle of a project so was not able to stay with her but we were not worried as we felt that she was SAFE there. Near the end of her work out, she was approached by an adult male who asked her how long she was going to be. During her work out, she took a snap of herself to send to a friend as children do these days. She may have inadvertently got this male in the background. He became angry and asked her if she was taking pictures of him. When she tried to explain, he wasn't listening to her. He took his phone out and started recording her. It is unclear if it was at this point or later on when other members got involved the he called her fat and said she has a fat stomach. When he started recording her she Very Loudly told him Stop recording her and asked him WHY he was recording her. Her being loud is what drew the attention of the other members. 2 male members came to her aid as well as a female member. He became very belligerent towards the other member, tell them .... off. I was actually on the phone with my daughter at this point because she called me and I can hear this in the background. When I get there, she was already in the office with the female adult which aided her and some staff members. Shortly after I arrived, a Sergeant from Peel Region Police arrived to investigate. The Sergeant spoke with myself, the Female witness, at lease one of the male witnesses and the staff as well as the Adult male in question (once they were able to find him). No charges were able to be laid as there was not physical contact made. That is what we were told . I was told by the staff that there would be an incident noted on his file. That was not acceptable to me and I demanded that he be banned from the YMCA. I wanted him banned because not only did my daughter NOT feel safe and was afraid to go back because she might run into him again but I didn't want any other young people to possibly have a similar experience . They told me that only the program director or general manager would be able to do that. I sent the general manager an email that day (Saturday). Monday morning I called the center to speak with the Program Director who was not in. I left my information for him to call me back when he was to get in in the afternoon. After waiting and not getting any type contact by the management team, I called him back and was told that he was in a meeting. I was then informed that the General Manager would be dealing with this. I received an email later from her asking that we afford her some time to speak to her staff and investigate. I told her I appreciated her taking this matter seriously and told her about the 2 men and 1 lady who intervened on my 13 year old daughters behalf. I also told her that they spoke to her staff and that her staff on duty that day should have their information and that I would await her review. To recap the timeline, this incident happened on Saturday, I sent an email Saturday. Monday I had to contact the center instead of them contacting me. The General Manager asked me for a few day to review on Monday. Thursday afternoon just before 3pm, I had still not heard back from anyone so I sent another email to ask about the status. Just before 7pm she finally responded to me by tell me that she could call me "tomorrow" and to reply to her directly with a good time to call. I'm not sure as to why she had to say directly as my communication was directly to her unless she didn't want me to continue to tag the CEO of YMCA in the emails as well. She calls me the next day and tells me that my daughter won't have to worry about running into him "in the near future". I asked her what that means. I tell her that I assumed that means that he is suspended and not banned outright. She told me that she reviewed the footage and spoke with 2 witnesses and she said that they didn't hear anything prior to to my daughter very loudly saying "Why are you recording me? Stop recording me!" That is when they stepped in. She didn't speak to the lady as she deemed that she wouldn't have any information because she wasn't standing directly next to them. I pointed out the fact that that just because she wasn't STANDING right next to them doesn't mean that she didn't hear anything or wasn't observing from a distance. She then tells me that there are procedures that they have to follow. She tells me that in the footage, he wasn't any closer that 5 feet from her, like that is supposed to make any difference. Basically, they aren't going to do anything.

Just signed up for a one month gym membership to try out River Grove before I commit to a longer…read moremembership. The fitness facility has gone under renovations previously so that's why I chose this community centre over the other dated locations. All of the equipment is pretty new and there's a variety of cardio machines, free weights, and resistance machines. I would assume that the facility would be more crowded during rush hours but luckily I usually go during the afternoons. They also have a group fitness room and several squash courts below. I definitely have to say that River Grove offers much more for a cheaper price than Anytime Fitness. Another plus is that they have several membership options if you can't commit to a year. The con so far is the uncleanliness of the change room. So far I'm liking this fitness centre for the price I am paying.

This place is a well kept community centre. There are a lot of equipment available on the second…read morefloor. It's split in 3 sections. One for cardio, which is full of treadmills, elliptical, biking station, and stair master. TVs are station in front so you can keep yourself occupied if you didn't bring your own music. Two is the lifting area. There's squat racks and plenty of room for barbell exercises. There's a number of workout benches for dumbbell workout routines. Problem is that after dinner on a weekday, this place is full. High school and university swarm this place around 8:00pm to 10pm, so avoid it if you can otherwise you'll be waiting forever. Three is the class area. They have yoga and step class here. I've attended the step class twice before and it is intense. This location has a lot of other things to offer, such as a swimming pool and classes. You'll have to look it up ahead of time and register. I don't see myself going to another gym any time soon.

First time trying Pilates here and I got the 15% new member discount, so it was worth trying out…read more They have plenty of lockers, changing rooms, washrooms, and a drinking water fountain. The lockers don't have password locks though. They also have a lululemon section inside, but I didn't have much time to look since the next class was about to start. The space is open-concept without partitions between the class area and the clothing section. The studio is very spacious and the class size is small with a maximum of 6 people. The instructor was attentive and helped adjust everyone's form and positions based on their needs. The beginner class was good for beginners, but even if you've done Pilates before and just haven't tried it in Canada yet like me, it's still a good place to check out.

In terms of value, this was the BEST option for me as a replacement gym. Post-Pandemic, my old gym…read moreincreased their prices 3Xs and didn't bother to honour my membership cost as a client of many years, so I had to take my business elsewhere! Looking at the gyms within a 10 - max 15min - drive, there weren't many options for me. The nearby chain gyms were just way too crowded/younger, bro crowd and the other box gyms were CrossFit places which wasn't what I was looking for. So weighing my options, I decided to sign up at my local community centre. Despite being an older centre, this place basically has everything INCLUDING group classes like yoga, Zumba, and a bunch of other things. The centre itself has a pool, skating rink, courts for pickleball, basketball, and a weight room. Outside, there's a skate park, basketball court, beach volleyball court, & various soccer fields. Of course, it's surrounded by various parks, trails, and there's even a private tennis club around the back. So far, so good, people at the front desk seem very nice. Of course the experience of the classes will vary depending on the instructor. And right now, the fitness classes aren't in a stellar studio due to kids Summer camps taking over the entire place! So hopefully that'll change once the kiddos are back to school. Membership prices are MORE than reasonable and they even include the fitness classes which is an absolute bonus! Weight room is small, but every time that I've walked by, it is almost empty. No one filming themselves or annoyingly flexing in the mirror to check if the few pumps of iron has made their arms grow! It's an older crowd, but at this point, I welcome that as opposed to the former gym bro crowd. There is also a discount for Seniors AND if another family member signs up!

I DO NOT recommend due to poor Supervisor / Management and Organization skills We completed our first season with Making Waves and really enjoyed the coaches, however, we enrolled our kids in advance for a second season based on the coaches feedback from each session and our observations every week. We came to Making Waves from the Community Center and it was difficult to translate the levels. We signed our son up for Big Wave 1/2 and he was promoted from 1 to 2 on the 2nd class. He continued to perform all exercises at level 2; coaches suggesting he's doing amazing each class, so we enrolled him for Big Wave 3/4 to ensure our spot with no friction. Making Waves cancelled our child's enrolment for 3/4 last minute with the only option to repeat a level at which my child is excelling (1/2). Conveniently the space disappeared online so it feels they needed to make room for another child (Making Waves eliminated Big Wave 3/4 likely creating a ton of friction). Making Waves wants him to repeat level 2. This will not challenge my child to progress, is unfortunate and disappointing. Especially given my child is also asking for harder classes. We won't be going back and recommend parents looking for good management and continued learning growth for their child to seek an alternative school.
