I have been a member of this gym for the last few months. I also signed up for personal training…read moresessions which I have absolutely loved. My trainer Craig is very Professional, helpful and supportive. He gives me a variety of exercises to work through which are challenging and have been helping make me stronger. The gym is very clean and the staff do a great job of supporting the members through their concerns. I had a concern about members not cleaning the machines and the staff took this on right away and worked to rectify the issue. The equipment is in good repair and there has been new equipment added to the gym since I joined. Love this gym and would definitely recommend it to others which I have been doing!

When I first joined The Northwood Club I had limited knowledge or experience with strength training…read moreand was intimidated by much of the strength equipment. Since my initial Fitness Assessment with Luke (co-owner) I have had the absolute pleasure of training with personal trainer Mattias for the past 2 years. Mattias - every staff member, in fact - helped by demonstrating technique or by offering a smile and encouraging word. Mattias has always been a huge motivation for me in not only reaching, but going above and beyond my personal fitness goals. He not only encouraged and "trained" me, but he helped me realize a level of pride that I never had before. I absolutely endorse the personal training program offered at The Northwood Club and of course Mattias for anyone at any stage in their fitness journey. I am very proud to call The Northwood Club my second home!

Gym space is nice. It's a small boutique gym, and the equipment is sufficient. The interior is…read moreinteresting compared to regular gyms. The service is a little shotty however. I was in town for a week, and went to the gym 4 times. 2 of the 4 times I had an issue with some staff member. I honestly even suspected at one point it might even be a race issue because of how absurd the entire process was (which i'm still on the fence about). Needless to say, I think this is a nice boutique gym, but next time i'm in town for a week, i'll be working out at another gym.

I am a new "weekender" in Collingwood- just bought a great condo!!!…read moreCopper Blues was recommended to me by a friend who went there a couple of years ago. You know when you have the feeling that a gym is about to go bankrupt? That's the feeling I got. The staff wanted my money, but I could see the place was in dire need of cleaning and it was EMPTY. The two machines I like to work out on were out of order and they had cobwebs on them...LOL!!!! They didn't have a full schedule...(once again...leaving soon anyone?) Anyway- my main complaint is the fact that I was asked to leave my shoes at the door....ewwww..... and someone stole them!!!!!!!!!! Not the staff's fault, but they did not seem to care a bit. When I finally got the attention of the girl on the phone, (painting her nails), she just shrugged her shoulders. I asked to speak with a manager and she said "he's out". This is a prospective customer!!!! I have been ripped off before by gyms that have shut down, and I can see the warning signs. They have obviously decided to fire the cleaners and the maintenance staff, so I will not join!

UPDATE: I just had their 5 Star review that magically popped up removed, via YELP. This shows you…read morethe kind of people I was dealing with. Although the underpaid staff are great people, the owners and management of this place are horrendously terrible to deal with. I had a disagreement with them and they canceled my membership. I am still waiting for the refund as I paid a year in advance. At this point, I am having to start a court proceeding to get my money back. I would have done a lower rating but one was the lowest available choice. Below you will see a response from this business. They have paraphrased things that I have said and they have fabricated things that I have done. There is a lawsuit pending and when it is completed I will be sure to share all the gory details with everybody. You might also note that the anytime fitness representative uses my full name. This is a breach of confidentiality. This gives you an idea of what I am dealing with! There is more but it won't fit. Suffice it to say, DON'T do business here.

I am relatively new to the Collingwood area and after not being motivated enough to kick my own…read morebutt, I decided to give CrossFit a try. I was incredibly nervous when I started, as I had absolutely NO idea what I was doing! I was also incredibly intimidated, being the girly girl that I am. After a few short one on one sessions with Steph, the head coach, I was on my way. She taught me the basics and made me feel at ease. She and Stouty (another awesome coach) also kept an eye on me during those first few weeks and helped me through movements that I wasn't quite getting. I was also pleasantly surprised to see people of all ages, shapes and sizes. I always thought CrossFit would be a bunch of ripped people carrying around their protein shakes and flexing their muscles at each other, but it was nothing like that. (This is why breaking down stereotypes is so important). What REALLY impressed me is how they adapted to the situation that Covid-19 caused. I started CrossFit just a few weeks before the gym had to be closed down. I was disappointed because I had just gotten started! Well, within a week these guys got Zoom classes up and running. I felt nervous again because it was unfamiliar and I didn't know if I could adapt with random equipment and objects around the house. They thought of EVERYTHING! Their focus on our form and execution was just as good, if not better, than when we were in the gym. Also, whenever I had any technical difficulties (and I had quite a few), Jen was on point to help me within seconds of me reaching out to her. I like to call her "The Problem Solver". Finally, the team at Indestri is incredibly adaptive to each person's individual needs. I had a roller skating wipe out that left me with a bum knee for 4 weeks and I thought that I would have to take a break from CrossFit. Nope. Stouty, Neal and Steph modified workouts each day to accommodate me, just like they do with many others with other varying injures. I'd highly recommend Indestri to a newbie like myself or a seasoned athlete who is looking to be challenged. Regardless of who you are, you will be welcomed into the inclusive family and be challenged to be your personal best.
