Nice community center where I come to play badminton during the weekends. It costs $4 to play from…read more3 pm to 5 pm, which is an awesome price, considering many other places charge anywhere from $6 to $8. There are 3 courts for badminton, and the same space is used for other sports. There is also a running track upstairs where you can run 19 laps, which is equivalent to 1 mile. There's also a nice swimming pool, along with an area for ping pong. I heard there is a workout room somewhere, but I have still yet to explore the rest of the facility. Just today I discovered some music rooms downstairs!!!! This community center keeps surprising me with new discoveries lol. The quality of this place is not too new, but it's not falling apart either. It is nicely maintained. The best part.... free parking lol.

This centre is a hub in the community. The staff are helpful and down to earth and costs are very…read morefair, given its a city centre. There's a small but smart weight room, great pool, gym with a new floor and lots of multipurpose and studio space. For new parents, families new to the area, or anyone who wants to get or stay active, it's the perfect place. My only criticism ever was with the kids karate instructor. He seems to like to make kids cry, seems to have a chip on his shoulder and in general isn't that good at karate. That's one minus in 3 years of pluses, so whatever.

We use this facility for the pool with the kids, and the library…read more The pool is not very big but decent, the instructors are very professional and experienced, nice with the kids. Family changing room is always crowded, there is almost no place to put your things (4 working lockers for any amount of kids at the time), not too clean. Note that while you are waiting for your child, there will be nowhere to sit so some parents have to wait in the car. The library is very small, open 4 days a weeks for a couple of hours.

This place has picked up in the cleaning, and last time i visited I enjoyed it…read more The pool is small but available to adult swimming almost everyday regular hours . if half of the chlorine were used , it would be exellent the gym equipment is updated . nice place to work out if you don't want a year expensive membership at regular health clubs. before 5pm and after 5pm prices vary, not much classes are offered in the afternoon for the afternoon visitors just early am classes, most good classes are for after 5pm prime price , a lot of concentration is put on children programs. love the big free parking lot space just for visitor and members only. you get an odd nutty woman with a baby in the car who just yells at people in the parking as wanneh be parking police lot but that is just the area or maybe xmas stress so have your earplugs mp3 player on your ears but good thing you don't see the stressed parents type with kids in the gym area where is more calm and serine place to work out.

THE POOL DECK IS HEATED, the pool itself is also very warm, quite large, and has a slide! Staff are…read morevery kind. Decor: friendly orange blobs painted on the white cinder block walls. Favourite time: Sunday nights from 6:30-9 they do a women and girls only swim. Very comfortable so long as you don't mind swimming freestyle plaid/thread-the-needle laps around kids playing ring toss and old ladies with flutterboards. Caveat: I have *never* successfully swum straight laps here for more than about 10 minutes at a time, and once an old lady spat on the floor in the shower.

Gym is clean, spacious and a great value. I think it was re-done a couple of years ago. As long…read moreas it meets your needs, its a great value. At the City of Toronto prices, I'm considering using it as a gym to do certain things, and go elsewhere for classes. As long as you sign up for at least 3 months, I think its about $35-40 per month. (This review is for the gym only, but the Rec Centre is a huge complex with lots available). - Good amount of free weights and machines. Well organized. - Good instructional info posted on the wall as to how to do exercises - Decent selection of cardio equipment that runs well... although if you are planning to come after work I'd check out how the crowd is before committing. - Washrooms are reasonably clean although change area is small. - Access to certain times in pool. - Little/no classes. - You're not inundated with ads everywhere. - No initiation, pay all at once (may be required). - Staff is not too involved - Don't know if personal training is available. - Not sure if there is towel service (don't think so).

This community centre is a busy one! Whenever I've been inside there is always a tangible bustle…read morethat gives great insight into the area and its diversity. I have swam in both the indoor and outdoor pools and they are among my favourites. The indoor one has interesting sight lines with windows on both the Dundas street side and the opposite side with its unique wedge shape. The outdoor pool is one of the old style gigantic ones where you can almost get lost in the middle of it due to the length. The library is a great place to hang out with floor to ceiling windows lining the side that faces Dundas and adjacent to the street market which popped up in the last couple of years. Winter time is fun too with one rink for public skating (no boards) and the other rink has boards and is used for ice hockey in the winter and inline ball hockey in the summer. Ryerson Public School neighbours the community centre and has a large treed field with paved areas near the school useful for playing ball or tennis against the wall. These type of community centers are what help make Toronto a great place to live!

For people living in the Dundas and Bathurst area, I would recommend checking this community centre…read moreout. For a nominal annual membership fee you have access to ESL classes, settlement courses for new Canadians, early morning Tai Chi, computer classes, cooking classes, and loads of fun stuff for kids (science club, youth volleyball, basketball drop-in, ball hockey, creative puppet making). They also offer really important services like "Emergency and Occasional Child Care" which has fees based on a sliding scale depending on family income, a peer nutrition program and parenting support for new parents. For other (still small) additional fees you can use the indoor pool and play other adult sports (badminton, weight training). Oh, and are you feeling hungry but only have $2 on you? The Greenhouse Cafe in the reception area offers a $2 menu everyday (with lots of good healthy stuff to choose from).

So we will only be two topics Pool and staff so lets go! POOL: Alright so right off the bat. my visits. there was a kid who threw up 2 times different times and different days. And that was couple of days after it just opened. now its like what. but the rest of the times. it was good. Its very cold for cold weather. but if hot. it could be amazing. like amazing amazing. in case of babys bathrooms or shower. There are shower rooms that have showers then a dressing room (sometimes its locked sometimes its not) it just depends. but back to the topic there is a bathroom. now A QUICK WARNING. because people are going to need it. if you are a boy. who needs to use the washroom. if you go to the boys shower room and head to the bathroom. there is only one stall. now if you head to the unviersal. there is multiple. and the showers are the same only 4 for all shower rooms. there is a office for FIRST AID and more. STAFF: Now this one is going to be pretty short unlike the pool one. because well there isnt much things to say. some staff are nice some are not. and thats kind what sums it. as there really isnt nothing else to say expect most of the staff are nice. SHOULD YOU GO TO THIS POOL: Yea! Its peaceful sometimes. can get a bit crowed but if you are near mcgregor and want to go do a quick swim. this is your place! - Ethan K.

I remember spending 13 days in four different Toronto community centres including this one from 24-Dec-2013 to 04-Jan-2014. The North American event was called the 2013 Toronto Ice Storm locally. So much of this city was impacted by the significant severe winter weather storm that included a crippling blanket of ice that forced Toronto to open up a number of community centres as emergency shelters. I even celebrated my birthday here during a midnight shift, complete with a cake that another volunteer bought and then totally surprised me with! The staff here were terrific, then and now. What great memories about what these functional community centre are when times were really tough, and when I'm only here to freely exercise my democratic right to Vote!
