Joining was easy. The locker room is spacious. Plenty of showers. The steam room and sauna have plenty of seating. The place is very clean inside and out. I have been in the pool about five times and there are always 2-3 lifeguards. The gym had plenty of gym stuff, but I LOVE the pool! So happy I joined!

Overall a good gym, not great. The membership fees increase but the quality has declined. As of…read morethe first week of March 2025, the steam room is out of service. Let's see how long it takes for them to fix it. In September 2025, it was also out of service for nearly three weeks to replace light bulbs. The sauna gets full; especially before it closes. The pool is well maintained and the weights and exercise equipment is good. However don't go on Mondays bc everyone seems to go to the gym.

The Canarsie Blinks gym definitely deserves better…read more It's one of the few gyms in the area with a significant number of Black women, which is important because cardio equipment, in particular, is lacking and outdated compared to gyms in other neighborhoods, even ones just miles away. For example, the Blink Fitness at 2166 Nostrand Ave, near the intersection of Nostrand Avenue and Junction Road, is much better than this location. Additionally, the Blink Fitness at 81 E 98th St in Brownsville offers a better experience with updated equipment and a more accommodating atmosphere. The equipment at this Canarsie location, on the other hand, feels worn out--loose, light, and ineffective. Some of the treadmills and step climbers are either broken or overcrowded, and there just aren't enough machines to meet the demand. This gym serves a lot of Black women in a predominantly Black neighborhood who depend on reliable cardio equipment, but I've noticed many of them are forced to go elsewhere. It's frustrating because a good gym location should serve the people in the community well, and this one doesn't seem to. I also had a strange experience in the locker room: there was a guy with a leaf blower drying the floor, and when I walked past, he yelled at me for walking on the wet floor. This was really off-putting. I understand he wanted the floor dry, but using a leaf blower seems like an ineffective and unprofessional method for a gym. I've never seen anyone use a leaf blower in a gym, and as someone who worked as a custodian before, I can tell that a mop or towel would be much more effective. It just added to the overall sense that this location isn't up to par. On a positive note, the lifting equipment is fine if you're into weight training, and the staff downstairs is friendly. If you're looking for something quick to drink, there's a dollar store nearby that sells energy drinks and water. I also like the smoothie and bowl shop across the street. It's frustrating because, with all the great supporting stores around, there's no reason why the equipment here can't be updated to better serve the community.

Great job guys! The solution for cleaning the machines is a bit too diluted, but thats all of PFs.

I've never felt so uncomfortable at a gym. Every time I come here, I'm made to feel as if I don't…read morebelong here. People will block machines while not using them, and dare I ask to use the machine they're blocking, I get an attitude. And it's ridiculously clear why I'm treated this way here. Also, gym-goers will occupy a machine in the circuit workout and talk on their phones, blocking the entire purpose of the circuit and none of the staff will ever inform them if the purpose of the circuit workout. I asked one woman who was just sitting around on a machine if I can use it and she told me that there's a similar machine at the other end of the gym. NO $#!* Sherlock! Staff don't care enough to say anything (or maybe just don't know, either). Really wishing I had never joined this particular location.

I heard about this place through a friend who was learning how to swim. As I am ending my 1st level…read moreof swim, I can say that I enjoy this very much. My swim instructor, Michael R, has been supportive and kind throughout the whole process and very patient with dramatics. If you would like to learn to swim, even at your big age, I would encourage you to check this facility out. There are so many activities for all ages to engage in. Tell a friend, tell a friend, tell a friend. The only complaint I have is the number of classes in one pool. It can be annoying to bump into another class space, especially when you are nearing the deep end of the pool.

From the basic commands to leash walking, I'm literally so freaking grateful cuz I don't think we could have done it on our own tbh lol We've learned so much and Theo is so well trained and behaved.

Which made it so easy for me to incorporate into my one-on-one sessions with Lionel. If this is what Martin can help folks accomplish virtually, I can only imagine how much you'll be able to do with in person classes. if you're looking for someone to change your pup's life for the better, go with Martin!!!
