What can I say? OTF is the best think that ever happened to my husband and me. We discovered OTF…read moreprior to their "soft" opening in December 2015 and had no idea what it was all about. Let me tell you. We have never looked back. Combined with better eating habits, we have lost weight, dropped a ton of body fat (I am at my lowest since I started measuring 20 years ago) but best of all my husband was able to drop all his cholesterol medication and I am down from 2 prescription to the minimum does available (which I am hoping to shed within the next few months). OTF Waterloo is my "other" family The workouts are exhausting yet exhilarating. We rarely miss a day because the trainers are just awesome. They all make sure that you give your best and a little extra to ensure that you keep progressing. We are currently on vacation and every time I see an OTF post I am reminded that I will be able to get back soon. Thank you OTF for changing our lives !

I was able to lose 4% body fat, but also maintain all of my lean muscle mass. Eden, my accountability coach, was very kind and helpful.

If you want to get pushed hard, go to Josh's classes! He will kill you (in a good way). If you want to work hard to some good tunes, go to Jen's classes! I am now a member! :D I'm actually surprised there are bad reviews on here. I was never pressured to buy anything weird like vitamins or whatever that one person said. Everyone there has been fun and easygoing! If you've been wanting to start something but didn't know what, just join a challenge. Coming to the gym and eating well will quickly become habit. You will love coming here!

Everyone is so helpful and honest! Before I tried the 21 day challenge i felt like there was no…read morebeginning. I joined because my friend had told me that I needed to try it, i was hesitant but thought if John's team cant help then no one can. I have learned so much in just 21 days both emotionally and physically. I have met great and became friends with some great girls and we helped motivate each other through each workout and the support i was lacking i found. The challenge was difficult to get the eating down, eating 6 times a days was hard to get in but with the support of the team and Mia kicking me into gear it went off and i felt so much better and stronger. Now seeing the results I feel stronger and like I can be a role model for my teen daughter and feel sexy for my wife. If i had to tell a friend about my experience i would tell them, if you are feeling like you are there is nothing left you can do your wrong. Working with the staff and members will change your life, staff with tell you like it is no excuses and the members will help motivate and keep you motivated. You will not regret taking advantage of the next challenge!!! Try it what's the worst that can happen, you will be leaner and more fit than you ever have!!

The club started great but sadly, the management there is terrible. The management has no idea how…read moreto manage and sadly, they will manage it into the ground. They literally know nothing except "it's corporate policy." There is no membership loyalty there and they do nothing to maintain or try to help their existing members. They don't even try. Take that in. Don't even try! Even though I have been going there a couple years, my price increase this year is $263 plus tax! I was paying annually so I didn't have to worry about payment more that once/year. They have my money upfront to earn them interest for the year but It worked for me. Yet I get penalized for it. It was already expensive but they just priced themselves out of the market. I understand that everything in this world is more expensive, but wow! A gym membership is a luxury and they just don't understand that people won't be able to afford that kind of increase. They got many new members (greater than 100) after a gym in the area closed and they had a special to recruit them. If they can do that for them, why not for existing members? They managed to get that through "corporate." No customer retention period. Even the monthly payments are going up (according to their member experience supervisor) yet they claim that if you pay monthly or bi-weekly, your payments will stay the same. Say one thing, do another. Exactly what happened to me. Also, they aren't keeping up with little things there. The womens gym has had to tred mills broken for 3-4 months now claiming waiting for parts. One of the tred mills has buttons so hard to get to work everyone avoids it. They took 3 TV's out of the womens gym. Why? The pool is down for maintenace frequently. Black spots on the ceiling in the womens shower area...black mold? Just all the little things that are accumulating. Some of their class instrctors are amazing...I mean AMAZING! They go around the room and make sure you have good form so you don't injure yourself, are cheerful and interactive with the class, change up the class a bit each day so it doesn't get boring, move at a pace that isn't so fast members aren't at risk of injury from the shear speed they want us to move, show options and have fun with the people in the class. Others instructors get up infront of the room and just get a good workout themselves.They don't show what we should be doing, don't show different options (ie: easy, mid and harder) or correct if there are poor body mechanics or interact with the class. One of them claims there isn't enough room to move around the room but she claims corporate policy says they have to allow that many people in the class. Again, corporate policy and metrics following without forethought into actual member safety. So sad because it was a great place. Now they are just corporate machines that act without keeping in mind the customer experience counts for far more than they realize.

Carrie was so unbelievably rude! I went in to get a new card. I did not have a mask on because I…read morewas born with a heart condition and cannot wear a mask (Unless I want to collapse) Movati says everyone has to wear a mask. Clearly discrimination is ok at that gym. I asked Carrie to provide me with a mask. She said we don't have masks for our clients and refused to help me. Working out has kept me going and is great for my heart. Her tone of voice was belittling! I can't believe she works in customer service. When I came back in with a mask... she disappeared so she wouldn't have to deal with me. Carrie with short blonde hair needs to be retrained! And needs manners when dealing with people! She could have handled this situation much better! Perhaps a factory job would be a better fit... no customer service. Go into the gym with a mask... get onto a machine and take the mask off. Finish on the machine and put the mask on. After a cardio workout... your body needs oxygen. I canceled my membership after 7 years. This place is a disgrace. Plus staff who work at a gym shouldn't be overweight... that shows a bad message!

It wasn't my first Nia class…read more In fact, I'd done a lot of Nia with great teachers, and even took my white belt training (which at the time, was the teacher training) for Nia. Nia is amazing, and each teacher brings their own energy to the practice. In fact, if you have tried Nia and didn't love it, I recommend trying another teacher or more. It's more about the right fit for you than it is about "good" and "bad" teachers. So, Jenn Hicks. She's amazing. She's not shy about sharing her personal story online and the struggles that lead her to Nia. She has a passion for mental health and celebrating the bodies we have. Jenn understands and loves it when you take care of yourself, so there is no pressure to keep up or do anything that doesn't feel right. If I need to slow a move down, or take a break, I know that Jenn respects and encourages that. I feel like she creates a safe place where I can show up, as I am, and dance from there. All of me is welcome here. You can be gentle. That said, if I wanted to pump things up and really work it, there is no one better than Jenn Hicks. That girl has more energy than anyone I know. She has a blast while she teaches and her enthusiasm is contagious. If you want a great workout that rocks your cardio while being kind to your body, this is the class. If I could describe her classes in two words, sexy and sweaty come to mind. The kind of sexy that is barefoot and strong. I often laugh out loud in her classes as well. And I love the music she chooses. It's all over the place, but always fun. Jenn is super playful but don't be fooled -- that woman is a powerhouse of wisdom. You'll be in good hands, and likely leave loving your body a little more.

I too, did not know what to expect. But, having taken Zumba classes at the Joy of Dance (and loved…read morethem), and it being 5 mins away from my home, I wanted to try it. Just a few minutes into my first class, I found myself loving it. It's a great addition to my work out routine. The no pressure, feel-good approach works for me, and yet I still get a great workout. Jenn's positive attitude and warm personality just adds to the overall feeling of enjoyment. I will continue with Nia and hope to reap the benefits for a long time to come.

I've been to several GoodLife's in Toronto, and thought that the one Downtown (informally known as…read morethe flagship) would be as good as it gets, at least in terms of amenities. But this gym in Waterloo beats them all! It's absolutely huge with two floors and a women's area (separately equipped with several squat racks). Classes are numerous and varied - they also offer hot yoga. Best of all, I'm not sure if it's because I always go in the morning, but the place is NEVER CROWDED. After my first time here, I was so surprised at the emptiness of the gym that I asked the girl at the front if this was a one-off thing, and she told me that no, this was actually considered "pretty busy". Well, guess I can't complain :) The service here is also exceptional - the staff members are so friendly and nice! You would certainly never be greeted going out the door and told to have a nice day at a GoodLife downtown!

The facility is clean, well stocked. I hate it when some places don't replenish paper towel on time, never want to leave a sweaty gym bench to the next person. Equipments are nicely spaced out, so you are not budding into each other. Lots of weights and cardio machines. Last thing and the best part, it opens 24 hours!!
