I was looking for something new to mix up my workout schedule - I am not a diehard fitness freak…read morebut I have been looking for ways to stay healthy and motivated. A friend of mine had been going here for about 6 months and invited me to come along and try them out. Because I am timid about new things I've never done, I opted to try the Intro to Spin class first. They showed me how to properly set up my bike and I found the instructors and staff really helpful and friendly - no pretentious attitudes at all which you sometimes get at fitness facilities. Ive continued attending various classes for a few months now. They have a great range of instructors and class types so you can really find the right person/schedule/style to fit your goals and preferences. They also have a cool movie night on Fridays where you can ride and watch a movie. Its a great way to kick off the weekend. Facilities are clean, modern and the shoes and towels are a nice convenience. Location is easy to get to and I've never had a problem with evening or weekend parking. The team there are always up for giving pointers, suggestions and are very motivating. It really is a well run place!

If you're considering this gym, just go to Barry's Bootcamp or Crush Camp instead - similar concept and great facilities that won't turn you away!

This October will be my 24th month at OTF Kensington. It has been a huge transformation for me…read more Excellent Coaches and Staff have helped me achieve significant weight loss and fitness goals. This location is absolutely fantastic - everyone is friendly and helpful. Coaches are knowledgeable and encouraging. The facilities themselves are better than most places I've gone with large, individual showers that allow me to get ready for work before leaving the gym. The equipment is excellent - and, of course, the workouts are the OTF standard HIIT templates - which you can find many reviews of online. I began by waking in the treadmill and am now running. Oh - also - I've lost 60lbs - so there's that. Highly recommended.

Imagine an abyssal darkness surrounding you. Within that abyssal darkness, imagine a spark of…read moreiridescent light. That light is Elizabeth, who works at the front counter. Elizabeth is always nice to me, and has gotten me to start going back to gyms after a 2 year hiatus to pursue calisthenics. When Shakespeare wrote of the transcendental beauty of Olivia in Twelfth Night, it was highly likely the mental image he conjured up was that of Elizabeth. I get sad when I don't get to see Elizabeth. In fact, the customer service she has provided has been second to none. If I was an employer, I would model my entire employee training structure around how well she handles customers. Frankly, I would be surprised if Elizabeth did not find herself rapidly ascending the ranks of MNP and taking on a very high level position. It would be a discredit to MNP if that did not happen. Elizabeth is absolutely 100% amazing. The GOAT. I think Michael Jordan writes Elizabeth fan mail. I could go on. But I won't. But I could. You get the picture. You BETTER get the picture. Elizabeth -- you are the freaking coolest, and if you read this I hope you know that seeing you really is a highlight of my week.

After having a wicked time at Bungee Workout for a Yelp event, my friends and I finally managed to…read morebook ourselves in for a full session last night. Man this is SO fun! Not to mention a hell of a workout! The staff is so friendly and welcoming, which is awesome. After signing a waiver, you're given a pair of neoprene long shorts to put on over your clothes for extra padding. Then you enter the room and get harnessed up and attached to a spring on the ceiling. And then the fun begins! You're taught how to take a step back to stretch the Bungee to use more kinetic energy so you can really fly! This is a total full body workout, which is surprising, but there's lots of arm work to go with the leg work. It's really not that hard and you don't need to be terribly coordinated - trust me, if I can do it then so can you! I've never smiled through an entire workout before (actually I've never smiled while working out cuz I'm not someone who works out for fun).

I visited the Team Smandych gym while on a business trip because I thought why not get some…read moretraining in while visiting Calgary. First impressions of the gym was that it is pretty small but clean. There are gloves for visitors to use. The class before the one I attended probably had around 20 students and it looked very cramped. The class I attended had about 10 and it was definitely more manageable with space. The instructor, Gabe, was nice and clearly had great technique. I wish there was more feedback during the class but I understand that there was ~10 students so it's impossible to give a lot of personal feedback but I wish there was just a bit more. I would like to visit one more time to check out the advanced class to see if there is more focus on technique.

Great gym on 14th Street near Kensington…read more I've been a member since the beginning and I've tried some classes and personal training sessions. The classes are good, especially pilates! I love my trainer Wendy... she's a machine! The equipment is great, and machines feel high end. Plus, from what I have seen so far, there is a minimal amount of douchy gym rats there! ;) Very nice change rooms and a couple of large showers. I guess the only down side is the size of the classroom, which limits the number of people who can take the classes. I see that as a good thing, because I prefer smaller classes, but it may get crowded.

Okay listen aside from the kind of, well, very high pressure sales tactics they used to get me in…read morehere, nothing they said was invalid and at the end of the day, they were mostly right about everything and I've been 100% happy with my experience. Every gym employs these same sales tactics so, at this point it's nothing new. And besides, if you didn't have someone telling you to get your butt to the gym you probably wouldn't go to start with. My story: I have a triple curve scoliosis in my spine. I've been living with back pain my whole adult life and it was starting to make me very miserable, chronic pain all the time. After chatting about this with my sales consultant they recommended Josh Deck as my personal trainer to address this issue and also my weight loss goals albeit they're the lesser of the two issues. I will say this, the small price I've paid to see him 12 times has resolved my daily back pain 100%. He's got me working hard but also being realistic about what I can manage in my day to day life and routine. It's been so helpful in fact I'm going to keep training with him for as long as I can. I cant say enough great things about Josh as a trainer but I am a special case, training may not be useful for everyone but certainly useful if you've got goals, timelines or a special case injury. The facility: has everything you need and the group classes are included in your very basic monthly membership and they have a very rich schedule to suit everyone's needs. Things are clean and there is always a cardio machine even at 5PM! ALSO - If you have kids, they have a day care facility right in the gym for a tiny little $4 fee for 2 hours. I came to this same Worldhealth in 2005 and left because at the time it was very male centric and desperately needed renos. Which now, the renos are great, layout is functional, they replace broken things quickly, change rooms are nice and honestly the staff know my name and are super helpful and friendly to me all the time. The price is competitive. The location is easy to get to. Free no hassle parking. All girls room which is nice for those awkward times. The demographic is also completely mixed in age, gender and body types. I'm happy and would recommend it to friends for sure :)

Please stay far FAR away from this gym…read more they have super deceptive business practices especially against young adults that will lock you into contracts and coaching you do NOT need. I had no idea what i was getting into years ago when i signed up for this gym, i thought i was getting a good deal on coaching and the place looks nice, but the payments will drown you. If you ever think about canceling, good luck. They will only freeze your account, and force you to pay the full years long term + some extra hidden fees. Save yourself the stress and go to literally any other gym in Calgary, hands down this is the worst one I've ever went to throughout my whole life.
