Best Gym near Orlando, Florida

My daughter takes classes here and loves it! She was a gymnast all growing up but needed a change. The coaches and classmates have made this a terrific transition for her. Love's going. Brags about all her skills. Cannot recommend enough.

I am visiting ehen out of town. This studio feels like home. Everyone is welcoming and supportive. It is kept neat and clean and the equipment is very well maintained and checked regularly for safety. The staff is the most knowledgeable I have experienced. I love how the teachers explain and break down skills in a way thats easy and accessible. I appreciate the fact there is a skill syllabus to follow for linear progression but not with so much ridgid structure (I have heard of in other studios) that the student feels stuck if they struggle with one skill. I cannot reccomended Orlando Aerial Arts highly enough.

I've been training here for over 10 years in silks, hammock and lyra! Love the challenge it provides me, fitness, community, and awesome instructors! I never step into a a gym anymore and I am stronger for it! Love the performance opportunities as well.

Amazing! The instructors and the students here are absolutely wonderful! OAA is welcoming to all, from beginners to seasoned performers. I look forward to my classes, and only wish I had time for more!

My 10 year old had a birthday party at the OEA school and it was phenomenal. The girls had so much fun, the instructors were professional and attentive. We had a party room that they provided cute table set up for and even customized music and hulla hoop games after the aerial arts lesson. I was able to decorate the room and bring food/beverages of my choice. It is a unique way to celebrate especially for the bday girl who is a competitive gymnast and her friends were eager to try the activity. Highly recommend this as a party venue. The school owner Jennifer was responsive and easy to coordinate with! Thank you for everything ❤️

Am not gonna recommend going here. It's not clean overall and the bathrooms for men and women, especially men, are disgusting, and soilage is presently seen. I told the manager Roger, and he gave the facial expression of "o well, that's nice" and continued to work on his computer without a reply to my question and concerns. There is some Colombian bakery inside selling little cakes at the door, at fitness center

Honestly, I do read the comments and most of them are accurate, but I have time and time again seen the staff re-rack the weights and sweep. Sometimes you will see some members with bunch of dumbbell in front of them and do not bother to put it in correct order. I can’t blame the staff for that, it’s just people do not have proper etiquettes. We are all adults, there’s no reason why a staff member have to pick up used wipes after you, but here we are. I have been to many LA fitness, and it’s almost all the same, except for some few that really do go after members dirtying the gym. I honestly, go there, get my workout and leave. It’s a commercial gym where I have to share with people and I know most people lack discipline and maturity to clean after themselves.

The staff is very nice. Too bad the handicapped shower has been out of order for three months with nothing but excuses. Now the bar that holds the lift to the hot tub has snapped off, looks like due to rust. Now the pool heater is broken. What a shame because this used to be a great gym.

For the amount of money that we pay and that gym is full all the time there are hole in the rugs, dust everywhere, old equipment. I would think they would have a better customer service. And when I say customer service is that the gym is clean and ready for it's customers to use.

Gym wasn’t closed (Friday, Jan 3rd, 2024, 8:55pm) and they shut lights off had to go down the stairs, almost fell. A lot of other people were still working out. That’s not right, they should advise people to leave instead of trying to rush and force people out by shutting the lights off, jeopardizing the safety of everyone.

We take our daughter to this gymnastics place, and overall, we are very happy with the experience. The environment is nice and welcoming, and the prices are quite reasonable. Our daughter loves attending and gets excited every Sunday morning. However, we’ve noticed that some instructors sometimes seem to forget that 3- and 4-year-olds are naturally curious and want to explore. They can’t always follow every instruction perfectly or stay in the same station for too long, especially when they are neurodivergent and need more flexibility and understanding in their learning process. Despite that, our daughter enjoys it a lot and always looks forward to her next class. We definitely recommend this place!

My kids absolutely love this place. They enjoyed a couple weeks of summer camp T Reflex and loved every minute of it. We loved that they were exhausted when they came home especially compress to the other summer camps they have participated. They beg me to sign them up for classes but between their busy schedules and mine it hasn’t worked out. But I do also sign them up periodically for the Sunday open gym. Which they love! They have also done the one day camp during School holidays which works for my work schedule. For the first time this past weekend they did Parents Night Out and they loved it! And I loved getting a night out as well. I do like how they do theirs on the weekend vs. Friday like most other places Overall an amazing place for a busy working mom to drop her kids off and know they will Enjoy themselves. Great staff and very helpful!!

I can’t say enough amazing things about reflex and their after care especially! Jessica has turned their aftercare into something the kids not only enjoy because of the gymnastics but because of the coaches! My daughter was nervous to ride the bus to reflex after school but now she gets upset if she doesn’t take the bus to there after school (you can drop off for aftercare if not riding the bus). During aftercare, the kids are evaluated on their skill level the first couple of weeks then they are split up based on level. So you child is getting a true gymnastics class that fits them (beginner, intermediate, and advanced). My daughter has now started pre-team and 2 days a week goes into that class during aftercare. My daughter was doing champions at her school 2 days a week but begged to do 5 days at reflex. So we do 5 days a week! The coaches are amazing and have quiet time to allow kids to work on homework. Some of the older kids even help my daughter with her sight words! You feel like family when you’re at reflex and I am so lucky we found this for our energetic daughter (who the reflex coaches Jessica and Alejandra have basically adopted)! Don’t let the craziness of the gym scare you, it is the most organized chaos I’ve ever seen. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Great programs -- we like the gymnastics and ninja a lot! My kids learn skills and are challenged. Reflex is great with make up classes and allows you to get all of them in. Texting is super easy and they are quick to respond. Would love to do this again.

Update. I was very upset about this situation but i appreciate the manager reaching out to me swiftly and rectifying the situation! We’ve been with reflex for a few years and my daughter enjoys it! Wanted to avoid posting a google review however i have asked for a manager to contact me and no one ever reached out. My daughter’s been in attendance here since 2021. I’ve paid for camps for both of my children etc. the way that the front staff spoke to me last Thursday over a late payment is disgusting. We all fall on hard times. My daughter loves this place and i fight very hard to make sure she can stay here but decent customer service goes a long way. Speaking to people with respect goes a long way. Parking here is a nightmare but instructors are very great.

Champion Athletics has been AMAZING!!! The quality of education, skill set of the coaches, positive atmosphere, and strong team camaraderie has made for an awesome experience for our daughter! She has grown so much in her tumbling and performance technique since starting with this gym for their inaugural year. I cannot say enough good things and am so grateful we made the decision to switch gyms and join CA! We are looking forward to our child continuing to pursue her cheer passion and be a part of the CA vision for many years to come!

The Champion Athletics cheer program has been such a blessing!! The instruction & coaching is fantastic, the precision and focus on skills & technique is the best and above all, I know my daughter is making life-long friends and having positive, character building experiences consistently. The fact that they’re located close to home in Lake Nona is icing on the cake!! We can’t wait to watch our daughter grow in the coming year and are so excited for competition season. CA All Day!! ❤️🖤

Champion is a new exciting cheer and tumbling gym. My daughter loves it. The coaches are wonderful. They truly are teaching kids to work hard at their sport and to be dedicated! My daughter has been very happy with the practices and coaching, and the smiles I see are all the proof I need that we are at the right place .

Champion Athletics is an amazing gym that not only push our girls to excel in cheer but they emphasize in being a champion in life skills. From the coaches, to the tumbling and the friendships being made there is nothing more we could ask for. They are very military friendly, gives back to the community, helps build character and responsibility in our athletes. I could not have picked a better gym to start our 3rd year. I highly recommend CA!

We decided to take a leap of faith at the beginning of Summer and make the switch to Champion Athletics. Best decision ever. The staff truly cares about the kids. The families are warm. The vibe is great! If you’re in the CFL area looking for a fresh start or just looking do All Star Cheer. Champion Athletics is the place. You won’t regret it!

I have been going to this location since April 2024. They have great staffs and clean facility. The only thing that disappoints me is a long time to replace damage pad. I have reported the damage pad for this abs equipment before Thanksgiving of 2024. It is Jan, 2025 now and it’s still not fixed!! I came back today, Jan 30th, 2025, after taking 2 weeks off and it’s still not fixed. Please see the attached pic that I took this morning.

I’ve come here for years but cannot any longer. I reached out to Planet Fitness about a concern I have over a month ago now, and I have not heard back. For a few months, I’ve been noticing an increase in suspicious persons at the gym. First of all, I’m not talking about the homeless persons who come in to use the showers; they're not breaking any laws, so there’s zero issue with it. What I am talking about is actual suspicious persons: people who do not appear to be wearing proper gym attire, footwear no less, and they are either on the machines dillydallying (feigning use), looking around, or standing around. Many of them have backpacks. On one day, the day I reported the observation, a young man was dressed in all white business-casual attire and intermittently raised his shirt to reveal a white band around his chest (appeared like a medical wrap, although he did not behave as though he was injured or hurt in any way). This has caused a great deal of unease for me and likely anyone else who is alert in these times. We don’t know if they’re there to properly exercise or conduct surveillance for a future event. It used to be where terror attacks were planned on a large scale, but tactics are changing. Small scale attacks tend to throw a culture off more and create a sense of unrest, and this is where it seems things are going. All public places have a responsibility to ensure the safety of their patrons, and not only will this facility not reply to my concern, they do not even have cameras. I urge everyone to please be vigilant in the times in which we are living and to report all suspicious persons to the employees. I’ve been coming to Planet Fitness for years and have thought all of the staff are very nice. Unfortunately, we no longer have the luxury of a safe homeland, and we can no longer expect attacks to be solely on a large scale (and therefore not happen to us).

The staff Paul and Ernesto are very professional and go above and beyond. I would give 5 stars if it wasn't so cold in the women's locker room. Please turn up air it's set in the mid to low 60's. Up to 70's.

Employees are helpful and kind and the equipment cleaned regularly. I feel welcomed and accepted even though I'm still trying to learn a way around. I recommended my sisters join and 2 of the 3 have done so at other facilities. It is a safe, free zone to exercise.

I consistently have great experiences at the Orlando (Chickasaw) Location. It is aways clean, well equipped, and the staff, lead by Dreysen, is always professional, friendly, and fun to talk to. Andrew and Ski are so much fun. I always feel welcomed and like family. I travel all year and visit 45 PF clubs throughout the U.S. and this one is absolutely my favorite.

Amazing place! Is more than just a place to workout, great people and wonderful coaches that make you enjoy every minute you spend there. Big family with greatest members!

This gym is a great place to be. I’ve always felt comfortable and welcomed since the first day. The coaches truly care and they are willing to help you improve your health and strength with patience and dedication. Everyone in this gym have a great sense of community and I think this is why I love it so much.

I’ve been working out here about 2 years. Love this place!! It always feels like family. There is a variety of classes and recovery. The owners are friendly and take pride in the appearance of the gym

The owners and people who run this gym are absolutely pathetic and do not care about their customers. We received the worst service and also the people who run this gym do not care about the environment that is present in this gym on a day to day basis. I am absolutely flabbergasted how anybody could be a member here. If you are thinking about joining a Crossfit Gym, please avoid this place like a plague. Please join another gym do not give money to Andrea or David Rincones, both of them are absolutely terrible.

Best gym in town! Owner/Coach Dave constantly goes above and beyond for his members. He has motivated and helped my husband numerous times throughout the years to be healthy and staying moving. He genuinely cares about people and not about just making money. We have been with this gym for 5 years. All of coaches are really good and the vibe is hype and fun, even at a 6am class! You won’t regret signing up. This is the place to be at.

This is a review for the Homeschool class D1 offers Monday and Wednesday at 1. My kids ages 7 and 9 love it !!!! It’s a great exercise program that translates to any sport !! Highly recommend!!! The coaches hold the kids accountable to high performance and it’s the right amount of structure and difficulty.

Nothing but good things to say about the gym and staff; they were worth the wait. Whatever your niche they can help you improve. Started with one kid going to class there, soon after my youngest was begging to join, and I even took a class. Great environment and the coaches really understand the athlete and their unique needs.

My son has been training with Rusty one of the D1 managers for a couple of months. Rusty has been one the coaches who is able to increase performance, endurance, speed and strength to my son’s game. Rusty is leader in the soccer discipline and able to get the best out my kid because he understood the assignment from day one. He is a professional in what he does, and it is a blessing to have him around. Congrats! We deserved Rusty!

The professionals are wonderful, personalized service, controlled environment. My daughter's development after she started doing D1 was huge. The owners usually give you attention, I recommend that you take a trial class.

I think this place is great! Especially for kids to stay active and learn how to stay in shape or work on their sports. It's nice and clean. Unfortunately my daughter wasn't cut out for it, good thing you can try before you buy.

Zumba Instructor. GUADALUPE BARRERAS one of the most inspiring instructors to dance with. She brings energy, a welcoming smile to the dance floor on every class. Guadalupe brings people together and the people follow her wherever she instructs.

This gym smells funny as soon as you walk in It’s like a moldy smell The girl that was cleaning the machines was using black water … I watched her for a bit to see if she would change the water but nope - she never did When we tour the bathrooms- it’s just very very nasty see pictures for yourself I didn’t take pictures of the bathrooms because honestly I think the showers speak for everything else. So disappointing I wonder what do they do with the $59 anual membership fee??? The gym is located in such nice area Unfortunately it’s so disgusting

This gym is closer to my apartment and I love the environment around it, it prompts me to achieve my healthier lifestyle and goals. I did have an instance where I was followed by one of the personal trainers to my car which I did not feel comfortable with especially since in any other esporta I feel safe to be alone. Other than that, id say this gym is good and can be busy most mornings I come but I don’t mind too much.

Me and my boyfriend Nick have been coming to this gym for almost 2 years now. I take my son to the kids club and pool, he loves it! We have been to a few la fitness across Florida they offer more than most. They have a cafe, sauna, pool, hot tub, basketball court, kids club, not every la fitness has all these things. I love that they do. The staff is amazing! Always so nice and laid back. I love the vibe. Although I do notice there is sometimes new faces. I have been to a la fitness that had towel service which was so nice. But this one doesn’t. I wish they did. Also another la fitness has an indoor playground and slide in the kids club my son loves. Wish they had it at this one. Also the cafe is different hours than the gym. But that doesn’t bother me much anymore since I stopped buying smoothies to save money. I wish they had a reward system like buy 2 smoothies get one free. I would probably start buying them again. But more than anything I wish the kids club was open more. I would love to be able to work out in the afternoons fri, sat, and sun when I have my son a lot of the times. My bf Nick loves going to the gym on the weekends and then comes home to watch my son so I can go if I want. But I would love to be able to go with him. It’s too bad the kids club isn’t open even for a few hours 4-7 or 5-7 would be amazing I would pay an extra few dollars for it if they offered it. I do love that this locations kids club has more space for the kids to run around than all the others. We love this gym!

Absolutely love the fitness classes. Love all the zumba instructors. Body works and abs with Cathy is AMAZING. She is so inspiring. Marjorie is fabulous too. Everyone is so motivating. Been coming to la fitness for years. This gym ROCKS!!!

Nice equipment. Helpful female staff. Poor cleaning service in women's bathrooms. Also the quick circuit area is never enforced despite signs and cameras saying it will be. The male workers have not been helpful with these issues.

Amazing Experience at Planet Fitness Waterford Lakes! I’ve been consistently impressed with my experience at the Planet Fitness in Waterford Lakes, Orlando, and it’s largely thanks to Nathaniel! He’s always so helpful and knowledgeable. Recently, he answered all my questions about the Black Card benefits and explained everything clearly, from scheduling and access to the tanning beds, massage chairs, HydroMassage, and the Total Body Enhancement system. His expertise really made me feel comfortable with all the options available. What makes Nathaniel stand out is his warm personality. He’s always quick to say hello, happy to assist, and genuinely makes me feel welcome every time I walk in. Planet Fitness is lucky to have such a dedicated team member, and I’m grateful for his help! Highly recommend this gym for its great facilities and exceptional staff. Thank you so much for bringing such an awesome gym to our community! And also, I want to thank Nathaniel for all his hard work, dedication, and attention to detail. Please do all you can to retain him as an employee because good help like that is EXTREMELY hard to come by. He truly is a gem! 💎 Cheers! -Freddy

Disappointed with Follow-Up on Cleanliness Concerns I was recently contacted by Planet Fitness in Waterford Lakes to provide feedback on their services. During the survey, I brought up a specific concern regarding the cleanliness of the men's bathroom counters around the faucets. Despite acknowledging my concern, the staff made no effort to address the issue. When I followed up directly with the staff and management, their response was dismissive and unprofessional, with an attempt to shift the blame instead of taking accountability. This is especially frustrating given that they reached out to me for feedback, which I assumed was meant to improve the experience for members. After reviewing other comments online, it’s clear that I’m not alone in being disappointed by the cleanliness standards. Unfortunately, this experience fell far short of what I expect from a gym that promotes a welcoming and clean environment. Update 1/15/2024: The reply to my review is a generic copy-and-paste response, which shows they don’t even take the time to read and understand customer concerns. If they had, they’d know I already spoke with management. This only adds to the frustration—it’s more gaslighting from their staff and management. Cleanliness and customer feedback should be taken seriously, but unfortunately, that’s not the case here.

All of the cable machines need to be oiled. I've been attending this location for weeks now and it has not been done. Please care for the machines more consistently. The abductor machines also need to be cleaned.

I love the gym. It’s clean and very relaxing!! There’s a young man at the desk ; his name is Noah. He is kind , warm and gives outstanding customer service! He’s an asset to the company! Promoting him and compensating him for his outstanding customer service will be to your benefit!

My son had his 6th birthday party at MyGym this past weekend. Coach Emma and Coach Rheanna were absolutely amazing with the kids and took care of everything from set up to serving food and breakdown taking alot of stress off my plate. All the parents raved at how amazing both coaches were and the kids didn’t want to leave. Most importantly, the coaches made the kids who struggle with socializing feel safe to interact and enjoy the company of the other kids. Thank you, Emma and Rheanna!

I’ve been coming to my gym with my 2 year old for almost 6 months. The staff are all so friendly and care so much about all the kids. Owen has learned so much like “how old are you” skills, sharing and it’s a good safe environment for him to see other kids since he’s an only child. Most of all it’s definitely age appropriate and they make sure to keep the kids attention the full 45 minutes. I highly recommend My Gym!

My Gym is the best! My daughter was so shy and timid around others and we have seen a HUGE difference. She’s very social and independent now. The coaches do a really great job of making her feel comfortable. My Gym is her favorite part of her week!

My kids just attended a party here and we were all amazed by Ms. Emma, she was the best party host! Her energy was great for the kids as well as the adults, so very professional but also loaded with personality. Emma rocks! Thanks for the fantastic party!!

We celebrated my daughter's birthday with her friends and it was a very pleasant experience. They played a lot of games with the guests and they were very attentive. Especially Austin

I’ve tried all the class formats now and it is amazing! The coach said I picked the hard day to try the traditional 60 but it was really fun and motivating for me as a non runner! Joey and RJ have the BEST energy. Everyone is so nice

:I absolutely love Orange Theory! The workouts are challenging yet fun, and the trainers are fantastic – they motivate you to push past your limits while keeping it engaging. Each session feels like a complete workout, combining cardio and strength in a way that keeps things interesting. The sense of community and energy in the classes is unbeatable. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a fitness program that really works!

Updated equipment vs other studios I've been too (including my home one). Bigger/better weight selection, more comfortable dumbbells than the normal steel ones that tear up your hands. Good coaches and mostly convenient location. I go here whenever I travel to Orlando!

Always a great experience and an awesome workout!

Emily and Kenzie were so inviting and helpful for my first time at orange theory. They were really knowledgeable and friendly about the entire process. The coach checked in on me and corrected a posture I had for a workout I was struggling with to help me accomplish it. Wonderful experience! 2 month update: the classes are not only extremely fun, but they also have themes on certain days along with personal benchmark achievements. This place allows you to see non-scale victories and challenges you to improve yourself through small increments at your pace! Love it!!

if you’re looking for a new workout spot, this is it. I love the intensity of each workout, and how fun the instructors (especially Mike) make the classes. I think that’s what kept bringing me back. I tend to be gym shy and I didn’t feel anxious coming in! I love how every workout is laid out for you and you don’t need to do the thinking, you just get straight to it. I did have to stop my membership though, because I wasn’t coming in as much due to traveling and mom duties. I couldn’t justify the price when I could only commit a few days. HOWEVER, if you’re planning on going to the gym every day and committing, then I do think it’s worth the money. I recently went on a journey to find another instructional gym/studio/class that would fit my schedule better but I realized nothing really compares to ISI! 🙂

Thankful for ISI and the awesome community they have built! Each workout is challenging and there are supportive coaches making sure you’re on the right track. I’ve learned a lot about form, nutrition and being consistent to see results. Happy to be part of this community! 💪🏼💚

I first tried ISI back in October using ClassPass. Immediately after my first class at ISI, I cancelled my ClassPass trial and signed up for a membership here and have been a member since. Coach Fallon and Coach Mike are super professional and create a really welcoming environment, whether it's your first class or 100th. The classes are great for all levels and adjustments are always offered to make the workout work for you. The facility is kept clean, there are convenient lockers available, and the community is really supportive. It is expensive, but if there is one thing worth spending your money on, it is investing in your health. I highly recommend trying a free first class if you're thinking about it and letting the workout and environment speak for itself!

If you are looking for an amazing workout with a welcoming atmosphere that challenges you every time you step in the door...and is done in an hour, then ISI Orlando is for you. Regardless of your fitness level, the workouts at ISI will push you to be better, faster, and stronger than you thought you could be.

I have been in the Health and Fitness industry for 25 years. Owned and operated 2 gyms, and this gym is, by far, the worst ran facility that I've ever been apart of. Fallon, one of the owners is very unprofessional. She doesn't return phone calls or emails. The services don't match the price they are charging. They allow members to come in and workout sick, which is very unsafe for everybody else. If you're a new member, be prepared to not get modifications if you can't do the workout. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND spending $170/mo at a facility where you'll actually continue to get results instead of hitting a plateau after 8 weeks of training there.
