GoodLife Fitness Pickering Ridge - Pickering, Ontario

Walk in at opening and the gym is a mess. Weights are everywhere and tons of blanks spaces and benches haven't been cleared off equipment on the floor. it's painfully obvious that the Saturday night staff and the Sunday morning staff did nothing to make this gym presentable. Toilets are a mess ( I will save you that photo!) @Goodlife you need to so better! ( thanks Joey Swoll)

If you enjoy paying premium prices for subpar facilities and empty promises, GoodLife Fitness is the place for you. For over three months, the steam room at my location has been out of service, and despite numerous complaints from members, the company has done absolutely nothing to fix it.

Management’s response? A mix of generic apologies, excuses, and vague assurances that it will be repaired “soon.” Meanwhile, we continue paying full membership fees for amenities that don’t work. It’s laughable that a fitness chain this large can’t manage basic maintenance. Either they lack the competence to hire proper repair services, or they simply don’t care about their paying customers.

GoodLife markets itself as a premium gym, but when it comes to actually delivering on that promise, they fall embarrassingly short. If they can’t even fix a steam room in three months, what does that say about their commitment to members? Save your money and go somewhere that respects its clientele.

At 62, I needed to change up my exercise routine. Fast-paced sports and running just weren’t working for me anymore. My “menopause middle”and crappy back issues needed a new approach. Post-menopausal women need to eat a ton of protein and lift heavy weight - neither of which has ever been part of my wheelhouse … and I hate lifting weights😂 So I needed to engage someone with the knowledge to help me tackle these goals properly so as not to injure myself. I started training with Amber early January. She is awesome!! Knowledgeable, caring, detailed, supportive, easy-going but pushes me to be better. Amber has a warm professionalism about her, she’s open and hungry to learn more herself. She makes it fun, we laugh, and she motivates me. It’s a new fitness journey I’m really enjoying and I look forward to feeling and looking the best I can be for many years to come thanks to Amber's help!!

I've been a loyal member of GoodLife, but I'm beyond frustrated with the lack of maintenance and accountability at this location. The steam room has been broken since December 2024, and despite multiple assurances that it would be fixed, nothing has been done.

I signed up expecting full access to the amenities that I’m paying for, and at this point, I don’t feel like I’m getting my money’s worth. If GoodLife isn’t going to maintain its facilities properly, they should at least offer compensation or discounts for the services that are unavailable.

If you're considering joining, be aware that maintenance issues seem to drag on indefinitely. Very disappointing.

I absolutely love the Pickering Ridge location. It is always kept tidy, and they have all the equipment I need. There is a great environment here, everyone (including the members) are so friendly and are here to support you. Definitely recommend giving this location a try.

CJ is just amazing! I had my on-boarding and he has great customer service skills , is very welcoming and friendly. Definitely he’s helping GoodLife fitness increase their memberships and enroll people like me year after year for the last 6 years! Cheers guys!

I absolutely love going to this club. I love the layout of the space and most of all the staff. They have great events, which make everyone feel welcome and included. I have an open membership where I can go to all clubs however, I always find myself back at this one.

I'm a regular at this Goodlife location, primarily because of their pool facilities, which are a crucial part of my exercise routine given my medical conditions. Having this facility so close to my home is incredibly convenient. For over a year now, I've been attending Aqua Fit classes led by Lynn H, and I often find myself wishing there were more of her classes available. Lynn is an exceptional instructor who never fails to challenge everyone in the class. She also brings a sense of fun to the workouts, and her choice of music is consistently uplifting. I wholeheartedly recommend Lynn as an instructor – she's truly outstanding!
