My personal Muay Thai lessons are complimented by a comprehensive Bootcamp program. My instructor, Daniel, provided a structured curriculum that keeps my progress on track and my workouts progressive and intense. Whether we are working on Muay Thai or I am going through a Bootcamp session- I am always challenged physically and mentally... and just when I think I have nothing left, somehow manage to do more. I believe this is a direct result of the work that Daniel has put into my program. As a busy professional, it is key that every minute in the gym is spent wisely and with purpose. I achieve this consistently with Health and Body Revolution. Highly recommended!

Teaching level and atmosphere: If like me, you have been subjected to weird or crazy coaches (I have been training martial arts for 13 years), Professor Shah Franco is a total breath of fresh air: you can tell he knows his stuff inside out and yet, he does not take himself too seriously. In the last year, since I've joined, I got to learn and practice a variety of styles (different kinds of stand up, ground work, BJJ, wrestling, self-defence) while having a ton of fun. Training is intense, but the atmosphere is jovial and everyone works hard without any ego flaring. There is a wide range of people training there from professionals to recreational but levels remains fairly high. Instructor attention to class: I have been injured many times in the past because other people could not understand the principle of sparring, and would go full out. No such thing happens here because Prof. Shah monitors sparring sessions (and every class) at all times, and he even spars and rolls with us most of the time (which is pretty amazing, considering how coaches are usually too broken to do so). In one word, Innercity is a gem. If you want to train the real stuff, while having fun, it is the place for you.

InnerCity MMA is a fantastic place to learn and train in a variety of martial arts all at once but,…read moremore than that, it's an amazing place to grow - both as an athlete and as a person. Professor Shah Franco is an incredibly knowledgeable martial artist and he's simply one of the most patient, impassioned coaches I've ever had the pleasure to train under. He brings joy to his life's work and can effortlessly put a smile on our faces, regardless of how much sweat is happily pouring off of everyone (natural side note: the facility itself is kept super clean and is beautifully designed!). The gym has a great atmosphere to train in and all the students are wonderful at giving back. I learn a lot just by working through drills and techniques with my training partners, who double as role models and friends. They always take the time to slow things down and make helpful suggestions, which makes the culture at the gym one of giving...even when "giving" becomes "giving you the fight of your life", it's a ton of fun. With long hours at work, I always look forward to training to switch gears. The fact that the schedule is flexible allows me to do a quick weight workout myself when I can't stay for the next martial arts class. Overall, InnerCity MMA is a home away from home where I can stay fit with friends. My only complaint is that I can't fix the rest of my life to get more time at the gym! Knowledge. Fun. Challenges. This place is hard to beat.

Honestly, locking in a regular training schedule with Anton has been the best fitness decision I've ever made. Anton is hands-down the most dedicated and disciplined person I know, which sets him apart from other trainers I've seen. He keeps you accountable and makes sure you get your money's worth every single week. If you're consistent, you will absolutely start seeing results after just a few sessions. If you are looking for a committed personal trainer and want to learn boxing, do yourself a favor and book Anton. You won't regret it!

Definitely a great place for a beginner who is looking to shed some lbs and is bored of the traditional gym, but definitely not a fight gym. Or if it is a fight gym they need to re evaluate their levels for classes. Very little technique but more about warm up, and cheesey burn out at the end. If the 90 min class maybe 30 min was actual pad work and it was beginner stuff. 3 punch combo with push kick. Would have got a better work out on a heavy bag at a local YMCA.

Cons: - You really do need to buy gloves, even if it's a trial class because the equipment (spare gloves) smells really awful. And no, it's not the smell of sweat, it's a scent that's rather indescribable. - The claim for TKMT is that no one is judgemental however the instructor said I looked horrible. I don't think she meant it to be offensive, but I was embarrassed since the whole Level 1 class turned their heads to look at me. I think the word was just a negative connotation is all. I suggest you bring a friend for the first trial for a comfortable experience.

Can be super intense if you push yourself. When I went it was 4-5 rounds of almost 11 stations, whatever fits into an hour-long workout depending on the number of people. The instructor Jason is super passionate about fighting and training for fighting. I really enjoyed the community-like atmosphere he created. As a first-timer I felt welcomed by him and others in the class. Not for beginners or the weak. I had a hard time with the tire flip and there was no modification for that one; you just have to flip that tire even though it's bigger than you! I still could do it just slower. In the Paleolithic era, if there was a tire in the woods and no man to flip it, would it flip itself? No way! Flip it yourself, girl! Hopefully with more time I will get stronger and be able to flip a giant tire without a problem. I don't blame them for not having a lighter tire to flip, it's the caveman workout, just a warning that it's heavy and if you don't do it right you could throw out your back. There were other women there who seemed to flip the tire without any issues so chances are you'll be fine. They're on Class Pass! Definitely worth checking it out, especially if you haven't done workouts like this before. As the instructor was saying, you need to do different workouts so your body doesn't get used to the same thing. This is definitely different than what I usually do. Looking forward to going again.

I went to try this gym once for fun because I know Kiian from another gym and came on a holiday. I…read morebelieve it was called the Fight Fit class and he was the instructor. It was a good mix of resistance work along with cardio and some basic kickboxing conditioning. It was essentially a HIIT class but literally everything mixed in. Abs, core, kicks, punches, legs, arms, etc. In addition to being a great workout, it was a lot of fun too. What was nice is that the owner (Jason) participated in the class as well, and it's good to see that kind of support. At the end of class, when everyone is exhausted, he said "anyone want to join for a 1 km run?" A few of us did. I live quite a ways away from this gym, but if you're in the area, I'd definitely recommend it and you should check them out (classes are great and they have all the equipment you need).

Overall the workout was fine and I did like the energy of the coach (Shaheed) but I think some…read morethings could be improved for the overall gym atmosphere. Firstly they don't have any front desk staff, so it was a bit confusing to locate the change area in the very back of the studio. There weren't any actual change room stalls, you just have to change in the tiny toilet stall which didn't feel that sanitary (uncovered plumber just sitting on the tile floor, no hooks for clothes inside the toilet stall, etc). Next, at the workout, the instructor just told us to grab a "light, medium and heavy weight" from all the dumbbells. Without any additional context it was hard to discern what an appropriate weight was - he should have given examples of the exercises we would be doing with each weight so we can judge what is appropriate. Furthermore the class was PACKED - I counted 22+ people attending, and you were basically shoulder to shoulder doing stuff like side lunges which meant you had to watch where you were stepping. Shaheed did do a good job of giving form corrections given how many people there were, but overall it still felt a little too crowded for the space. There was a huge variation of age ranges and body types in the class. Maybe for this reason the class seems a little bit more geared towards mobility and longevity than hypertrophy - we were doing some movements that I thought were strange (dumbbell curls while balancing on one leg). I can see the benefit for those that need work on their balance but for the average person it didn't seem that optimal for building muscle. Overall the rest of the studio (other than the bathroom) was open and clean, and the intensity of the workout was fine. Because of the negative points I mentioned in my review I don't think I'd come back, but I do see the benefits of this gym especially for those that have mobility concerns.

This was a great group physical activity and I enjoyed the concept of working out together under the guise of a staff member of Ferris360. Ferris360 is an indoor fitness space located in midtown Toronto on Yonge Street just before Davisville and across from Davisville subway station. They have been operating since 2012 and have different workouts catered to different strengths and target areas like HIIT, Pilates, barbell, and strength training. On this snowy, freezing raining Sunday 11 a.m., we had a private class (that's not listed on the roster). It was an one-hour class. We started with some alternating warm-ups: about 1 minute of cardio on any machine to get the heart going (you could choose between the treadmill, the rowing machine, stair climber, bicycle, or one machine there you pulled down using both arms) and then a minute of mat work. There were two major circuits we did which also involved alternating between cardio work and work on the mat with three different level weights. We did chest openers and presses on the floor with the weights. We alternated leg lifts with the weights in our arms. We then did three rounds of 10 weighted squats, 10 squat presses, 10 sit-ups, and 40 shoulder taps with each round alternated with a different cardio activity of our choice. We finished off with a cooling session: child's pose, downward dog, and pigeon pose. The hour of class flew by. The instructor explained all of the different activities thoroughly, but I wish he stayed in front of the room and continued to demonstrate them while we were doing them so I could reference how to do some properly. Nevertheless, it was a fruitful and good workout. The next day, I definitely felt my armpit and connecting arm areas sore from doing the "fly" chest openers. Ferris360 has gendered change rooms and washrooms on site as well as water for purchase. Their collection of varied cardio machines is impressive.
