Best Gym near Fort-worth, Texas

This place is AMAZING!!! The pottery studio is fantastic. I took a wheel throwing class with Melinda Randall, and I can’t recommend her enough. Her class is incredibly informative while also being very relaxed. You learn the basic skills, and then she guides you on projects you want to learn. She is a fantastic teacher - very kind and encouraging and very good at making complex skills easy to understand. The membership is also unbeatable. The pricing is phenomenal, especially when you compare pricing to other studios around town and what the membership gives you access to. If you’re looking to learn pottery throwing, don’t wait!

We enjoy our son Saturday mornings at this location. They need to add on more parking because they don't want us to park across the street. However there's no way that they will be able to hold all of the attendees and their current parking structure

Haven't been here since I was a kid back when it was GDRA. I was invited to the gem, mineral and glass club monthly meeting by their silver Ssmith. They have a shop set-up worth visiting.

Gabriella, the event coordinator, has been incredibly helpful since our first meeting. She showed us the Trinity Room, and we were impressed by how spacious and modern it is. Her recommendations and tips regarding setup were invaluable. We chose this venue based on a strong recommendation from a friend who has catered numerous events here. We’re looking forward to celebrating our wedding at CERA!

Great gym. they are open everyday. I work there at I9 every Sat

I've been going here ~weekly for a couple years and love it. Class with Alex this week was so fun- he even used a song I requested. He's got the most upbeat, encouraging personality! Honestly, I enjoy all the instructors- so many different personalities. This place is a safe space and doesn't judge. Class is mostly in very low lighting and to music and you can adjust intensity to your own level that day. You can feel comfortable no matter your size, age, or level.

I tried one free class and that was all I needed to be drawn in for purchasing a monthly unlimited pass. Since I’ve been coming here I’ve dropped 30lbs and I feel amazing. Definitely at my goal weight but this is my safe haven and keeps me going! I feel like family. Started end of Nov and consistently since December 😮‍💨🫶🏾👏🏽 All the instructors are awesome!!!

I have loved every single class at Waterside. The instructors have incredible energy and are all very welcoming. I go to Alex’s classes a lot because I’m basically his number one fan lol love his music choices and energy. I feel better after every single one of his classes. But you literally can’t go wrong with any class or any instructor - they work for any level of fitness. Don’t get me wrong, it’s challenging. But that’s what helps you grow. Love this space. 🤍✨

Truly incredible! Katie is an absolute superstar on that bike! Her classes are engaging, challenging, and SO MUCH FUN!!! The community at Cyclebar Waterside is unmatched! From the front desk staff, to the instructors, to the fellow riders, this place ROCKS!

Loved Jessica! Coming back to working out after having a baby was so intimidating and she was amazing! She was motivational to your OWN goals and didn’t push you beyond your limits

I love this OTF gym so much. It has truly become an integral part of my day and the coaches have helped me to make huge strides in my physical and mental fitness. I am so grateful to the coaches and the staff. Absolutely phenomenal on a daily basis!

I’ve been a member for a year now and I always look forward to my orange theory class! The workouts are constantly varied and fun! The coaches are great, and the music is great. I love that I can just show up and get a great workout with no planning on my part. Thanks OTF CAMP BOWIE!

Amazing gym full of awesome people, both members and staff. Scared to try? Feel self conscious? Think I'm not one of “those people”? Worried you’ll be judged for your body size or lack of athletic ability? Come give them a try. Extremely accepting and inclusive environment. Come do this thing you think you can’t do…. So then you can do all the other things you’ve been telling yourself are impossible or out of your reach.

Been coming here for 4 years! I love the workouts they continue to challenge me. The people are awesome at the studio. I’ve made so many friends from all walks of life here. The coaches are wonderful!

Been going here for a few years and love this gym and the coaches here!

Could NOT have had a better experience at this gym. Lost a ton of weight, gained a TON of muscle, made some great friends, and have pushed myself to be my best self. The trainers here are friendly and tough and help motivate you to give it your all. What a great investment and a great time. Just wish I had a better life/professional schedule to do this all year around!

The Apec gym has elevated my sons football training more than any camp or combine. Would highly recommend the training AND APEC Med for PT

I’ve waited a long time to find a place like this. Instantly you know for certain the staff cares you’re there and care about your goals. I went with the plan of just using the open gym due to poor group experiences in the past but figured let’s give it a shot. The group leaders recognized I was new, introduced themselves, and actually used my name when coaching me…and remembered me a couple days later. Seriously - this place sets the bar. Next level training and customer care. I also use the showers so I can go to work right after my workout and they have always been extremely clean.

Truly an amazing facility, gives you a wide range of equipments to utilize. The trainers are knowledgeable and dedicated to their craft and actually want you to excel. They do a great job when it comes to answering questions and providing needed information. An extremely welcoming bunch, would definitely recommend!

One of the best places around for elite fitness and sport focused athletic development, recovery and injury prevention. The programs are effective and meet you where you are with your level of intensity and athletic development. They run programs for professional athletes all the way down to elementary age programs for children. The facility is first class with many hydraulics, free weights, athletic apparatuses, and a 60 m running track for short, bursting speed development. They also offer sport focused physical therapy and treatment.

Great facility. Very kind people. I was visiting Fort Worth to attend an anime convention. I paid my drop-in fee online and had a great training session. It was so much fun that I purchased two more sessions. I'm planning on attending the same convention next year, and I know exactly where I'm training. When in Fort Worth, you should train there too.

Excellent coaching. Chris has a wealth of knowledge and can ensure you are adapted based on your skill level.

What I appreciate most about Chris is his personalized approach to coaching. He takes the time to get to know his clients and their individual needs and tailors his coaching style to each person. I never felt like just another face in the crowd - he really took the time to understand my strengths and weaknesses and continues to help me work on areas where I need improvement. Overall, I can't recommend Chris Lofland and BlueWave Weightlifting gym enough. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, experienced, and motivating coach who will help you achieve your weightlifting goals, look no further. Plus it's a fun environment and a great group of people overall!

Best weightlifting club in DFW! Coach Chris is very knowledgeable about injury prevention, gymnastics progressions, Olympic weightlifting, general fitness, health, and more.

I have joined BlueWave recently and love the atmosphere here. Chris does an amazing job tailoring workouts to fit any need. I have been impressed at how he programs movements to protect his athletes as well as build strength and flexibility. Overall this is a great gym to call home.

beautiful trails and parks to ride or walk through. great place to bring kids kids and have fun, many playgrounds and /pavilion areas

for the people who don’t want to workout inside or at a public gym, this is your answer. nothing like being with nature

absolutely love this idea and the fact that maintain it and clean it regularly.

terrible

Truly a place you can spend your entire day! The gym offers a variety of experiences, from getting in a great workout to enjoying a meal at the café. There’s so much to do—whether it’s playing pickleball, swimming in one of the three pools, or even treating yourself at the LifeSpa with a massage, wax, or a fresh haircut and nails. One of my favorite things is having access to the studio when classes aren’t running—perfect for stretching without feeling self-conscious about some of the poses. And if you're looking for a relaxed end to your day, there's even a bar on-site. What’s really impressive is their Recovery Center. It offers dynamic stretches, cryolounges, hydro massages, and compression systems, making it an excellent option for post-workout recovery. The trainers at this gym are also very knowledgeable, and I would highly recommend making use of the one free session that comes with the membership. For families, the kids' center is amazing! My nephews absolutely love it, especially the tumbling classes. They also have specail dates for "parents night out" when the kids center stays open later than normal. They’ve also had all their swim lessons at Lifetime, starting when they were just 1 year old. There are so many pros to this place, but there are some downsides too—mainly the cost. If you’re not using the full range of amenities, the membership might not feel worth the price. I was lucky to join when it was $115 a month, but newer members are paying about $200. Keep in mind that this gym has membership tiers, and access to one location doesn’t guarantee access to others. As someone who travels frequently, I’ve run into this issue. However, you can call ahead and arrange up to 3-day access at different locations, which is helpful. Overall, Lifetime Fitness Keller is a fantastic facility with tons to offer—just be prepared for the cost if you’re not fully utilizing it!

I had a membership at this location for over a year. I was mostly disappointed because of the little amenities & lack of sanitation for paying $200 a month. The locker room and showers were not always clean and the one time I forgot my shower shoes and showered without I got a wart on my foot! That shows they don’t properly clean their facilities. The workout classes were nice but most of the time I was less then a foot away from the person next to me because there were lots of people (specifically barre and yoga). The Pilates instructor never reached out after I told them I was interested in doing classes. There were also not many weight machines for being a “gym” and a lot more cardio machines. I just don’t think for the price you’re getting what you pay for.

Been coming to this gym since it opened in Ft Worth/Keller area. Has excellent facilities and services just like a mini resort. Great healthy food selection at the cafe (with bar)and love having spa massages and hair services every now and then. All the staff are friendly. The instructors for the classes are very engaging and motivated. My kids love the facilities as well specially the pool area. If I could get all my friends to join this health club I would. Highly recommended to everyone!

I cannot speak highly enough about the wonderful experience my daughter has had with Presley at Life Time Gym’s kids’ area. Presley’s kindness, patience, and genuine care shine through in every interaction she has. My daughter always leaves with a big smile and countless stories about how much fun she had. Thank you, Presley, for making the kids’ program such a standout part of the Life Time experience! You are truly a gem!

I use this gym 5-7 times a week for the past 6 months. I enjoy lifetime as a gym and I pay for my wife and daughter to use the gym as well. I fell that the gym can be cleaner and the locker room areas can be improved. The showers have at least 2/3 out of order and they are definitely not always clean. I would suggest you get someone cleaning them every hour on the hour like buccees. The parking lot needs security or cameras as several people cars have been stolen and broken into. This is worrying for such a large facility and company. The staff are great and they work their tails off. Either they need more help in the locker rooms or they need someone full time cleaning stalls and showers. Take note from buccees. You are a huge company, you can afford this.The clients deserve this for the membership fees we pay. If we wanted average sub par service and amenities we would have joined planet fitness.

3 times a week and agent buddy of mine (Ken Bird) and I have been pumping iron and keeping our energy up. This is the best gym I have been to for a quick work-out. They have a 30min full body work out room that is an amazing place to get started. We are rarely there for more than an hour and always feel great as a result. Hope to see you there.

This is one of the best locations I have been to... nationwide. Members seemed to know to clean the machines after use, staff was friendly, the gym itself was very clean and organized. I'm impressed 👍

This location is very nice and the machines are rarely out of order. I actually live closer to the Saginaw location, but I drive out of my way to this location because it is better. I came in this morning on Christmas Eve, and Eddie met me at the door and gave me a big, friendly greeting as I walked in. Samford was also very nice, and we had a quick, friendly chat as I scammed in. The staff is always very nice and friendly!

I love this place. No, I’m not a fitness guru. Honestly I’m not in the best shape. But I walk in and the staff treats me like a real human. They call me by name. Most days I walk in just to use the massage chair. There truly is no judgement. The staff asks me how many minutes and when I am done the day “see you tomorrow hope!” Great place.

I started coming here when my Blink Fitness location filed for bankruptcy and abruptly ended my membership. The gym is huge and there is almost always equipment available. The Black Card membership gives me and my guests access to the spa, which is my favorite part.

I have been a member of otf Alliance for a year and I love this style of workout. The coaches are energetic and knowledgeable. I enjoy the challenges and benchmarks that help you see your growth. Overall I recommend anyone who likes group fitness to give orange theory a try.

Joined a little over a month ago just to get up my endurance for a Spartan race and have absolutely loved it! Shout out to my bestie Heather for encouraging me to join and working out with me!

I have been a member of this gym since 2/2023 and recently there have been many changes. The way that this organization treats their coaches is unacceptable. They fired a coach in the middle of a class because they were closing the studio that she worked at. Another coach, they didn't pay according to their pay schedule then fired her while she was at her son's military bootcamp graduation. Both of these coaches were my favorites and absolutely did not deserve to be treated this way. I requested cancellation of my membership ($170/mo) and was not told that they would be charging my card again next month. Apparently they require a 30 day cancellation notice but they neglected to tell me this when i cancelled. I cancelled as i do not want to give my $$ to a business who treats their employees so poorly. There are many other gyms in the area that i would much rather support. It is very sad to see all of these changes to a gym that i loved. After seeing how poor the coaches are treated here, i cannot fathom continuing to support this business. I have sent an email regarding these issues, as have many other unhappy members; but none of us receive responses back so hoping that this review is seen by upper management.

I stopped in for a class on October 4th while traveling through the area. It was awesome! Joey was the coach. He had an awesome playlist and was very on point with the timing of the class! Front desk person was super nice too and I wish I remembered their name. Studio was clean and had good AC! I even used the shower after class and left feeling great. If I lived in the area I’d definitely want to join this studio and take more of Joey’s classes! Highly recommend!

Just moved to the area and this is now my new home gym! I could not be happier! Everyone is so friendly, the trainers are all amazing, and class is just as great! Def recommend!

Great CycleBar all the instructors are amazing. I have my favorites as I like there style, would recommend talking all of them! Love my classes here. You should give them a try!

Shout out to the team over at Cyclebar North Fort Worth!! Kelvin and Paris had all the answers and worked with me to get my first class scheduled. When I finally went in for my class, Christina definitely made me put in the work! High energy, great atmosphere, professional team. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for a new group workout environment.

Everyone here is so sweet! Paris helped me sign up today and she was great. Instructors are also very welcoming :)

CycleBar North Fort Worth brings straight joy to my soul - everything about this space is uplifting, encouraging and inclusive. Come get your sweat on and enjoy the magic with us!!

All the instructors are so kind and inviting! Everyone has a different style in the way they do classes so you're sure to find an instructor that fits you!
