From Our Members
We love to share when our members have a great experience! Read what they have to say about our trainers, instructors and the facilities.
Women’s Health Club
“I am so very pleased with the renovations. It is such a clean and bright refreshing space with the brand new showers. Also, the countertops in the women’s washroom offer a very modern, sleek look. I particularly like the floors in the workout area …It looks so much better! I appreciate having the bathing suit dryer – what an added bonus! And I absolutely love, love, love the sauna!! Thank you for all of your hard work that went into making this happen for women who attend Columbus Centre. I look forward to continuing to use the facility.”
– Carmelina M.
“Thank you to all the people who have recreated the Women’s Health Club atmosphere from an ordinary place to a refreshing open space. When I walked into the Women’s Health Club today, I felt the open spaces and the organization of the equipment were well designed for the members. I was totally relaxed in the shower and sauna area. As a member, I feel that I will be able to benefit from these improvements.”
– Mary G.
Men’s Health Club
“The new cold plunge and updated sauna are amazing. I wasn’t sure I’d be into the cold plunge at first, but now I’m hooked — it’s the perfect way to cool down and reset after a tough workout. And the sauna? Total upgrade. Way more comfortable and relaxing than before. You can tell they put real effort into making the space better for members. It’s made a huge difference in my routine — I actually look forward to recovery time now.”
– S.M.
Personal Trainer – Julia N.
