good environment byt doesnt havr all the equipment i might need. Good place though

I originally had a consultation with Fernwood Penrith for Hypoxi weight loss. The expense was out of my budget and the consultant suggested I sign… Read more

up to the fitness area of the club. I looked at the cost and considered it was doable even though I am on a carers pension as I am full time carer of my 90 year old mum with dementia. A couple of weeks into the fitness program my mum needed more of my time and also I was in urgent need of dental work. I deferred my program with Fernwood and was not charged a fee. However, the dental work and the needs for my mum was considerably more than expected. Fernwood advised that they will continue charging me plus a cancellation fee. I advised them that I was very low in funds but Fernwood took money out of my account leaving me with $12.00 until my next carers allowance 10 days later. As of this date I advised Fernwood that I would need to contact my bank to stop the direct debits. The lack of empathy and compassion is very disappointing and sad and leaves a very bad taste in my mouth as I have been upfront with them about my financial situation and the reasons I am not able to continue with the program.

Be very careful, pricing is vague and will catch you out! I took advantage of the advertised $99 intro offer I saw on Facebook (50% off) but was… Read more

charged $198. I queried this and sent them a screenshot of the advertised pricing on their website which states I would get to use 2 pieces of equipment, the massage suit and a bike, in the session. I was told the intro offer was only for use of one piece of equipment and because I used 2 pieces of equipment I pay double. This was never once explained to me or a choice offered during my 3 visits. I was only offered a choice of a lay down or an upright bike. I did argue this point and the very next day was sent a screen shot of the NEW website wording that they had obviously changed after my complaint!! They could clearly see the confusion and promptly acted, no offer of a refund or an apology, in fact denying the words had been changed just to insult me more. If this was a 50% deal then it's a very very expensive activity. In my final session I was not even hooked up to a heart rate monitor. If you plan to try it make sure prices are explained CLEARLY before you start. I have attached a screenshot of the website wording on 12/11/25 and then the new wording on 14/11/25 after my complaint about the price confusion.

G.A. Review – I have been coming to the GA for several years now, its like one big family. There is heaps of equipment, the staff are wonderful and I made a lot of new friends. Love it.

Xclusive Female Fitness – Xclusive Female Fitness Club is an absolute gem! From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with warmth and positivity. The environment here is so… Read more

Her passion for fitness and dedication to her members shine through in every aspect of the club. Whether you're a beginner or a fitness freak, Paula ensures you feel supported and motivated every step of the way. I couldn't recommend Xclusive Female Fitness Club enough – it's truly a five-star experience!

Very easy to use with many options to go to! An affordable option to benefit your health.

I had my first try at hot Yoga today …. Extremely enjoyable ALISON the instructor was fantastic, cannot wit for my next session. Also on my arrival Ky was so welcoming and showed me around, great service with a lovely attitude.

I have been a member of this gym for a number of years now. The ladies section has 2 pilates machines which I absolutely love. There have been some… Read more

issues with the machines but everytime I have enquired about this there has always been follow up. Love the fact that management responds to all negative reviews and have full details regarding the people who have submitted them who are/have done something dodgy. Reception is fine they are busy so understand that they don't really have the time to greet every single person walking in and out of the place. Have never found any issues. You can just go about your business and do your workout and leave which I love.

Awesome Personal Training – Highly recommend Idealbody4life! Serge is really a great trainer. He's very knowledgeable and careful to make sure you're doing the exercises… Read more

correctly to avoid any chance of injury.

He makes sure the sessions are varied so it doesn't get boring and tailors the program to suit your individual fitness goals.

He really goes above and beyond - checks in on you between sessions to keep you motivated.

He's passionate about what he does and he's just a genuinely nice guy.

Serge trains me and my two friends. It's always really fun and we have a laugh and it's a great, energetic way to start the weekend.

hand over money.

I was in Sydney for a month so used this as my gym. When signing up to the contract, I was told that the fob payment is refundable when you bring it back (30AUD - see screenshots). To be sure that everything was to go smoothly as I was flying out of town, I sent an email to the gym to ask about fob return to make it easier for them. No response - even though it was 13 days before the end of contract. The staffed gym hours are untrue, when I went to return my fob on two occasions before my contract ended there was nobody there for my whole hour long workout both times. When I went to the gym most recently to return the fob there was nobody on the desk for 30 minutes and just a scrappy sheet of paper asking to call a mobile number if nobody is about, without an Aussie number I couldn’t call so had to wait. As soon as the old man working there finally came back I was met with an aggressive response to requesting the fob refund and told that the fob return rules were made clear to me - apparently (and not in writing) you must return the fob with an active membership in order to receive your fob return money. I’ve included the contract that Broadway Gym use below which states nothing about the fob return policy, so this is how they make an extra bit of cash from members. It is only 30AUD, but the behaviour of the older man working there was quite shocking.

It is clear why this is one of the cheapest gym in Sydney, staff are never there and the gym is left to manage itself, but I just want others to be aware of this scam so this gym doesn’t extract extra cash from future or current members.

Best decision I made in a long time – KAOS Theory is not just a diet plan and workout routines, it is a way of life. It helps us to make better decisions to live healthier lives. It… Read more

focuses on the mental aspect of your lifestyle to help you to get healthier. It is curtailed in such a way that you can adjust it to everyday life. Not everyone can live in a gym and have the perfect food plan because we live in the real world. This is where KAOS steps in and lays the road map for success. However, it takes personal discipline and determination for anything to work. This is a relationship and like all relationships, both sides have to be willing to work for it. We don’t get out of shape over night , so don’t expect results over night. Work hard, disciplined and steady; the success will come. Joining KAOS Theory has been one of the best decisions I have ever made.

Jetts O'Connor. Amazing no pressure environment. Management excellent. Personal training on customer request James, All the best mate.

Funlife Best gym in the northern suburbs – I have to give another Big shout out to Funlife Fitness Centre. I suffered an injury and could not do any gym work for over 2 months. I thought this… Read more

would impact my membership, however raising the issue with team member Sarah, she instantly resolved my problem there and then. Sarah's customer service in my opinion went well above and beyond what I expected. So again a huge Thank you to Sarah and the team at Funlife 10/10.

Dishonest Billing Practices and No Accountability - Avoid South Pacific Health Club – I strongly advise against signing up with South Pacific Health Clubs due to their unethical billing practices and complete lack of accountability. I… Read more

was incorrectly charged for two personal training sessions that I never attended, yet despite multiple follow-ups, South Pacific has refused to correct their mistake. After providing clear proof of the incorrect charges—including bank statements—they continued to dodge responsibility, claiming they "couldn’t confirm" whether they actually owed me money.

To make matters worse, even after cancelling my membership, they continued to debit my account. When I raised this issue, I was met with the same dismissive attitude and lack of action.

This gym's management clearly prioritizes squeezing extra dollars out of unsuspecting customers over ethical business practices. If you sign up, be prepared for billing "errors" that they will refuse to fix.

There are plenty of reputable gyms out there—do yourself a favour and stay far away from this one.

Absolutely love this gym – Can’t say enough good things about this gym. The staff are amazing. Nothing is too much trouble. Helen is amazing at the group over 50s sessions. She… Read more

keeps everyone motivated. Always friendly and helpful. She also took me through each machine giving me a great program to follow. The young male trainers are excellent too. I am 68 and feel like I have a new lease in life. The value is incredible giving seniors 20% off a fortnight. I am so happy I joined this gym as I live a 20+minute drive away but was wrapped to see a gym that caters for all ages. Couldn’t find one close to home that catered for my age. Also love being able to rock up anytime night or day using my free fob.

them and it’s not too difficult to find a free one. Just wish more people understood treadmill etiquette and didn’t get on right next to you when there’s enough free machines to leave a machine free between users.

The facility could benefit from getting a couple of big fans for airflow, particularly going into to Summer as it gets quite humid.

account was three time the amount agreed ($169) What makes it worst nobody seems to even pick up the phone when I called to clarify the situation. I regret signing with this gym

I’ve been coming to this gym for years and absolutely love it. The classes, instructors, and staff are all exceptional—always supportive, welcoming, and incredibly understanding. It truly feels like a community. Highly recommend!

argument trying to tell me there qualified doctors knowing my history what's exempt. I'm currently working full time with the medical documentation I have there telling me I'm not exempt so disgusted felt humiliated in front of customers. mind you been a member for 7 years at this gym. poor customer service also phoned the gym prior to visiting it was told its ok with my medical documentation I have.

Best way to work out. The trainer comes to your home with the equipment.

says I am good to go and I will be back at the classes post surgery. The pool is kept pristine and warm and there’s also the outdoor pool for sunbaking in summer. It’s like my own personal resort.

payment of $430 despite their having ongoing system problems preventing members from gaining access for several days many times over the last few weeks. This rejection from a multinational company (Viva Leisure) who have many gyms Australia wide.

due to acc and returning to work. I asked to finish and would pay what was owing but due to my situation things got forgotten and not one person contacted me from any of the agencies concerned. That is healthy inspirations or debit success about 3 months later i got hit with a bill for 1,899.00 from them. Trying to sort this out has left me very angry as no one wants to know about it debit success passed buck back to healthy inspirations ive tried several times to get it sorted to no avail. No one wants to know me basically. Very sad. As to cost weekly which is roughly 30 odd dollars not value for money.

excellent teamwork and trainers', lovely community and workout sessions, I completely recommend!!!
