I believe this facility is only accessible through a personal trainer. When you walk in there's an area to leave your outdoor footwear, seating as well as a counter that sells water and coffee. The change room has lockers, weigh scale, showers as well as washroom facilities. There's even bottles of lotion by the sink! From a glance around the gym there's all the usual equipment that you'll find at any gym as well as some that I've never seen before. The ground level has two sections of weight lifting equipment and the upper floor has cardio machines, TRX, dumbbells and mats. Can't wait to see what my trainer has in store for me.

Lets leave the stretching portion of this review alone for a second and get into some cardio to warm up... I've been a Goodlife member for about 4 years now, and have been using the Aurora location for little over 2 years. It's located on Bayview Ave in Aurora just north of Wellington (in the Cineplex/Sobeys plaza). Its a new-ish location and the staff has done a pretty fair job at maintaining both the equipment and the facilities. Speaking of the staff, I find the staff here to be #1 in terms of friendly and informative. Any question or concern I have ever had has always been addressed and answered in little to no time and with a smile. "Pant pant pant pant".... Gasp... Ok, (swallow) so now that we're warmed up were gonna start to hit this review pretty hard with some power sets where we are gonna look at the facilities and the classes. As I mentioned above the facilities here are really well kept, although my one MAJOR complaint is the small size and related number of facilities/machines available. On a busy night you cannot get a proper work out in as many of the machines are occupied by people who like to "look" like they work out and spend 1/2 their time posing on the machine and flexing in the mirror. Also, many other Goodlife locations offer amenities such as hot yoga or a swimming pool - this location has neither. I feel like in planning this location they didn't plan it out very well at all. Moving into the classes, Goodlife does offer a full schedule of classes for different people at different levels. I recommend starting with Body Pump, its a great full body work out in under 1 hour and you are sore and tired by the end BUT it teaches you the basic moves and body areas to focus on when you are ready to hit the floor on your own. One note is that I've never been able to take part in a spinning class because again their is a lack of available space for new comers (the regulars have the bikes all booked up). GRUNNNNNTTTTT----STRAAAIIIINNNNNN----YARRGGGHHHH!!! Great power set, PHEW, well now were just gonna start to cool down now, let me tell you about a few other things this location offers that are kinda cool. Personal trainers - some are great while others have been not so good, I recommend Dave or Dan, they've been at this location awhile and these two guys are tops in my books Child care - while there are no little Kris U.'s running around at this time I know that many busy parents take full advantage of the child care centre here - a great service offered so Mom and Dad can stay in shape. Other - They also have tanning booths, saunas and a pretty decent selection of Protein shakes and drinks for purchase at the front desk. Well, thanks for working out with me today guys and gals, I think we made some serious progress, but until next time .... Keep fit and have fun :)

The instructors for the spin classes are very motivating. I like most of the musical selection that they play. The flywheels are on the bikes are a bit gritty so my one criticism is that the bikes should be better maintained. There are certain time slots where the classes fill up quickly which requires you to show up 30 minutes early in order to sign up. I wish there was a way to call instead of having to show up so early. I've done a few bodypump classes and a few body flow classes as well they are good. I find the environment fairly relaxed there and not intimidating.

Be wary of the staff trying to sell you a personal training sessions, these aren't cheap. I've come at a few different times during the day and find that the only time there aren't a ton of people is very early in the morning. Otherwise you'll be hard pressed to find a machine or weights to use. There's staff constantly cleaning and I haven't noticed any cleanliness issues other than gym members not wiping down machines when they're done using them.

Terrible experience at LA Aurora that has left me quite frustrated. It was a cold, snowy Saturday…read moremorning on this Februray when I arrived at LA Aurora as a premium member, accompanied by a guest who was there for a dance class. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any parking spots, and since my guest was running late for the class, I decided to temporarily park in front of the entrance to accompany her inside first. After I scanned my barcode using the app, I planned to head back out and search for parking again. However, when I returned, my guest told me that Faye, the assistant manager of membership, had tried to stop her and threatened to cancel her membership. I was really shocked to hear this, especially since my guest hadn't been disrespectful at all; she was simply a bit unpatient about the class starting. Then, the following Monday, I received an email stating that my membership had been canceled, without any prior notice or communication. I found this extremely aggressive and unprofessional. When I asked Faye why my membership was canceled, she claimed it was because I didn't work out alongside my guest. I tried to explain my parking situation, but she didn't seem to care. I even asked for clarification on whether there's a policy about returning to your car for necessary items, but I didn't get any clear answer. It felt like she was abusing her authority to cancel memberships without valid reasons. I then reached out to the membership manager, hoping to resolve this issue. However, it seemed like there's a significant lack of accountability in their team. The manager said they see over a thousand members every day and are trying to prevent unauthorized access. But this wasn't my situation at all, and he seemed not interested in my concerns. When I requested a refund for my last month's deposit, the remaining balance on my annual membership (which has over nine months left), and the unused days of the canceled month, I felt like my concerns were being kicked around and they treat me like a fool. Because of all this, I have to file formal complaints with Consumer Ontario and the Better Business Bureau, but I still haven't received any refund. The most ridiculous part that the feedback from the organization claimed I used my membership too frequently, and that was their excuse for denying my refund LOL At this point, I'm feeling quite lost and unsure about how to get my money back. I would really appreciate any assistance or guidance anyone can provide.

I dropped by to try a class, but instead encountered blatant discrimination from the receptionist…read more As I was registering for the class at the front desk, she saw my Ukrainian last name. As soon as I confirmed that I was indeed Ukrainian she stressed that the first class is free since I'm new to the gym, but I have to pay next time I come in. Frankly, I wasn't even aware of that the first class was free - I was happy to pay. She then proceeded telling me how "all these Ukrainians" take advantage and "think they can just sneak into free classes without paying". I was extremely offended by such blatant generalizations. Needless to say, I walked out immediately as I feared that a person of my nationality would be unwelcome there. And based on a quick look around the place, it felt like a dungeon and the equipment was dated. I wouldn't recommend it.

Great selection of quality cardio equipment. The gym is a little small but in my one month of membership I have not had to wait for any equipment (although I typically work out past 8PM - rush hour might be different.) Seems to have a good selection of class offerings although I haven't attended any. Facility is very clean and extremely pleasing aesthetically. There is always somebody walking around cleaning. Age group 18 and up and members have solid gym etiquette; practically all weights are always in the right place. The weekend hours could be better. It's open till 11pm on Friday, 7pm on Saturday /Sunday, and midnight on weekdays. Overall 4.5/5, very solid gym, extended hours would make it 5/5 for me.
