Good place to work out
I've been going to this gym for the last 6 years and have used the daycare. My son made lots of friends and really like going here. I love how the childcare staff show how much they are compassionate and caring at the kids. I can't thank Nusrat and Humaira enough for what they do. They are very easy to deal with ,very kind people. I hope they stay here longer as I have seen a lot of great people leave. I'm glad you have them at this gym I go to. I feel that my son is safe at all times.
If you plan on dealing with this gym make sure you have a good lawyer. Dispite never signing up with this gym and never stepping foot in this gym they claim I owe them nearly $400. They make their money through shady business practices like buying people from other gyms signing them up for years without informing them. They are after me for bills I've never seen and contracts I've never signed.
Favorite location in Saskatoon. Staff is hardworking, welcoming and friendly. Facility is always clean and equipment is all in good working order and condition if anything is faulty or broken it is repaired quickly. Requests to improve the gym are always strongly considered and typically implemented if possible. Great management as well, James is always willing to go the extra mile to ensure members of the gym are content.
Ryan is awesome!! Very encouraging and friendly, easy to talk to about my fitness goals and he strives to ensure I am challenging myself during my workouts. Love the staff and overall friendly atmosphere of this place, everyone says hi and goes out of their way to learn your name. Highly recommend Ryan if you are looking for a trainer to meet your goals.
Great gym, great staff, great trainers. Very clean!
i rocommend this fitness centre staffs are very approachable and friendly
I would recommend the blairmore location! I’ve been a member of motion fitness since I moved back to Saskatoon in September 2018. I’ve went to all the locations in Saskatoon since then and I have found that the blairmore location in comparison to the others is my favourite. What makes it my favourite is the incredible staff, all the trainers and front desk staff never fail to say “hi, good morning; have a good night” every time I am entering or exiting. I signed up for a personal trainer in April 2019, Jessica is my trainer and she is the best, overall great person, she gives advise that she implements in her own life and workouts. She takes the time to check in prior to the workouts to see how I’m feeling. I’ve built so much muscle, lost fat and gained a lot of confidence during my time with her. I would highly recommend Jessica as a trainer. The layout of this location is also well thought out, I find my works can flow.
The gym is nice but closing at 10 on weekends is straight junk. Needs to be 24/7 for people who don't have an 8 hour work day, I Don't even have time to work out after work on Friday - Sunday here
Great place to work out! Clean and the staff is friendly!
Just need WiFi to be perfect. Wifi for the members just life Brighton.
If there’s a choice for 0 star. I’ll do it. They keep taking money from my bank even I called to cancel my membership ! So I need to call my bank to stop them taking money! And now sent my info to collection!! Even in their record it’ll show I never show up and use their gym.NEVER sign up for a contract with motion fitness!! You’ll never get away with them!
Great atmosphere! I’m new to the gym and fairly new to fitness, I signed up with a trainer and my experience has been awesome. Ryan Di Valerio is the name of my trainer and he is very understanding, encouraging and patient with teaching me the how-to’s of the gym, where I am at in my fitness journey, and encouraging me to really push myself. Five stars Ryan, and 5 stars to the Blairmore location.
Simply the best! High Quality, Diverse Classes and Awesome Equipments.
Everything’s good. If I were to say one thing, it would be the weights are never on the right place
Nice but no maintenance on the tanning beds.
I have been to many gyms around Saskatoon, recently switched from good life. I have never been to a place where the staff actually interacts with the customer. From the friendly front desk staff, to the trainers who are walking the floor, motion fitness is hands down, the best place to train and I recommend it to everybody.
What makes Blairmore location one of my favourites is James at the front desk. He made the process of signing up so easy and makes us feel welcomed whether we are new or returning to the gym. He is very knowledgable and will take the time to get to know everyone who comes to the gym.
The general manager James was super helpful when I came to cancel my membership since I’m moving away. Canceling gym memberships is usually a hustle, and I had bad experiences with the other motion locations when I tried canceling. He addressed the problems I ran into professionally, and I got everything I wanted stress free.
Blairmore has such a friendly staff that welcomes you as soon as you walk through the doors. The facility is very clean and this gym has everything you need for a gym! Would definitely recommend!!
Great gym, affordable membership fee, professional and friendly staff????
There is always friendly staff welcoming you when you come through the doors.
The front office staff is simply top tier !!
Amazing staff, very welcoming! I definitely recommend.
This place is perfect i have no complaints at all, the staff is wonderful, comforting, nice and friendly. The staff make my day so much better, they always put a smile on my face. All the trainers are fantastic and very professional. You will definitely see results, they push you beyond your limits. Everything in the gym is nice and clean and very spaced out for social distancing. There is a variety of machines to pick from so you'll always have something to do. I would 100% recommend this gym, they are the best!
Had issues with the maintenance fee payments of other family members for the family membership due to COVID, but Mandeep was able to solve my problems in a very professional manner. I was going to take a loss and cancel for good, but Mandeep tried her best to make the situation right and I was able to figure out my own personal payments separately. Super happy she went above and beyond to fix the situation. Will definitely come back once things are back to normal as I now have a peace of mind when it comes with to payments. Thank you so much!!
I've been coming here for a little over two years, and I love the sense of community of this gym. The staff are super friendly and engaging, there's lots to equipment to choose from, and it's very clean (especially right now during a pandemic). I'll be continuing to attend this facility for a long time!
Good clean gym, nice staff
Been coming here for just over a year now and everybody’s been really helpful and friendly!
Great work environment, always amazing to come in and get greeted by the staff and also the others in the gym!
I would definitely recommend this location. The staff is friendly and professional, the individual training is extremely helpful (personal thanks to Britanny). Their steaming room and women's section for work out make a difference ;)
Its really good service
Staff always goes above and beyond to answer any questions, keep the gym looking pristine and also do their best to remember your name and greet you as you enter and leave the gym. The staff at Blairmore are the reason I go to this location over others in the city!
Great gym, all the workers are very nice and gym is always clean!
I love working out at motion fitness, everything is so clean and spaced properly. I never have a problem finding space to workout. Also the staff are fantastic ????!
Beautiful facility, I had a discrepancy with a billing error and Mandeep the supervisor handled it very professionally . Would definitely go here if I lived on this side of town.
Nice place. Customer service people are a nightmare to deal with. Stay far away.
Great place for fitness lovers with all type of gym equipments. Staff is so friendly. Additionally they have a nice daycare facility which is fabulous. My son loves to go and play. Daycare has great staff to care your kids. Five stars.
I signed up because of the "no contract" angle. The cost was $170.00 with monthly payments of $40+ I moved back to Calgary, phoned to cancel, only to find out about the hidden 60 day cancellation fee. This means that while there are no motion fitness locations near me, I still have to make 4 more membership payment's. I discourage anyone from joining this gym, because of the hidden fees and dishonest sales people.
Peter is hot, James is dad, and the gym is home
Have been trying to cancel this account for months and they still keep it open. Which has resulted in alot of overdue charges that I don't see fair. I would recommend maybe trying another gym if possible. FYI, it has been months since I have tried to cancel this. Before Xmas 2020 sometime. It's very frustrating that this company keeps trying to get more and more money for services that we don't use.
Great place to work out. Front desk people are very nice and approachable as well as the other staff.
Absolutely love working out at this gym. They keep their facilities clean! James and staff are absolute beauties!
UPDATE: So I made this review a week ago and I walk into Motion yesterday and they placed a new Hack Squat machine, and you can tell it was brand new bought. Thanks guys! Don’t listen to the bad reviews for this place. Everything is stated/in contract before people sign up and often time people give this place bad review because of their negligence of things they were informed of prior. With that being said, this place is absolutely amazing. It’s always kept clean and fresh and the atmosphere is great. The people that come to workout here are amazing and you will always find people willing to help you if needed. In fact whenever some of the personal trainers are off-duty, they tend to still help you if you kindly ask. The staff is great, the equipment is well taken care of and there is always lots of parking even in the busiest time. You will not regret joining Motion Fitness Blairmore and in the worst case scenario, if Blairmore location isn’t convenient for you, you easily have 3 other Motion Fitness Locations to choose from. A few suggestions I would make is to add more mirrors in the gaps in fromt of the bench press so that people can practice their form on the other sides of the cables. I would also recommend bringing the hack squat machine that other Motion Fitness locations have. Lastly, please bring back the lotions in the change rooms as they made a huge difference for me as a consumer. Thanks!
Some of the best staff I’ve dealt with at a gym!!
They keep on deleting my reviews because they don’t want people to see how bad their customer service is and how they are trying to make me pay because of an employer screw up. Canceled my account few months ago and they keep charging me and I finally had someone answer the phone to talk to after leaving tons of voicemails and was told not to worry and that I don’t know anything. I got an email from a Hayley Friesen omg Member services and she had said I owe them 4 payments which is $117 and they tried taking money out of my account 3 times in the last two weeks each time causing me an NSF fee from the bank as I was guaranteed there will be nothing I owe. No one seems to do what they say and instead I get someone new to deal with and tel them the situation again and nothing gets done. They had tried taking $196 from me yesterday that I had no idea about and Have no idea what for. I had emailed her I will not be paying them anything cause of an untrained employee and that I will be expecting them to pay me for banks fees which add up to $144 or I will keep writing to them and giving them horrible reviews and make sure people are aware motion fitness screws people over. Because they don’t seem to care about my money and if they cause any issues after I was told this wouldn’t happen.
One of the best gyms is Saskatoon!
Have been going to this gym for about three years, and I have nothing to complain about it. The staff are very accommodating and the place is well-kept. Great place to work out! I have been training with Jai Patel for more than a year and I can testify that he is one of the most experienced and committed trainer around. He has a wide variety of techniques and will keep you motivated at all times. If you are looking for a personal trainer around the area, I highly recommend Jai!
Everything from my 1st phone call with the gym owner has been great. Just all round Love the staff and facility. Everyone is so friendly and the gym is spotless.... Love It !!! Thank you !
Peter works here
Went to this gym for over a year. Was a decent gym but pretty expensive. That being said I went to cancel my membership her and they told me it was all done and canceled. Then proceeded to try and charge me for the next 3+ months. I know others this has happened to aswell. Shady business
Clean, friendly and well run. Been working with JJ, he is awesome. Inspired me and both my sons!
It goes down to one star. I have been a member since 2014. This is how I got treated: 1. Signed up for family member - smooth transactions. 2. Downsize to single member - need to submit 60 days notice. Did that. 3. 60 days later still being charged for Family membership. 4. Upon asking, why, I was told that I need to sign a new Membership form. 5. My question: When I am cancelling, the rep should walk you through the proper process? I am sure you all will agree. 6. Brittany Thompson (who I believe is no longer there) never helped. She was the General manager. 7. Member Support team - Super slow, and always prompt to respond when they think member is at fault. When they dig in and find own faults. It is painfully slow. 8. After going down to single membership 7 months later, I am charged double again. 9. Member Support - So & So is on your file. 10. Waste my time to collect my agreement and send it to them. 11. No apolgies takes two week for Joelle Thiessen at member support to realize they were wrong. 12. End Result I was charged again. OUTCOME: ANYTIME FITNESS has just opened a brand new location in Confed and it is a big GYM as well!! MY REVIEW COUPLE YEARS AGO: Gym goers will appreciate how clean they keep the gym. They offer towel service, which is a major plus for me, less laundry for me. You will appreciate how quickly they fix things when they go down. Steam room is also well maintained and is one of the best that I have used.
The cleanliness of the gym and the friendliness of its staff motivated me to often come to the gym. One thing that I never found in any gym where I previously go to.
Great place to work out. Very clean. Awesome customer service. All the trainers are very helpful and friendly.
I love this gym as it is always clean and people are very friendly. The childcare staff are very helpful and takes care of the kids very well. My son loves them!
Great place to workout
The only thing I would change is maybe lowering the family bundle price by 5$ but other then that loving motion fitness right now
Over priced and hidden charges
Was told this was a good gym and priced reasonably. I went to join but there was an unjustified $100 "Joining Fee". Was also told that if I wanted to pay cash (which I did), I would have to pay for 2 months PLUS the $100 fee, so it came out to $199.99! For 2 months membership to the gym! My friend said they joined early 2016 and never had to pay such a fee when they joined and the receptionist nor I can seem to justify this steep price tag. "That's jut our prices," said the receptionist. I don't like the Shaw Centre too much, but I'd rather keep going there where its reasonably priced and no one tries to gouge me before they even have a chance to welcome me.
Saw an add online and surely would be joing soon! This place looks Wow :)
I love coming to this gym this staff is so wonderful the classes are amazing and everybody is very kind. Plus it’s so nice and clean.
This is a fantastic gym!! All the trainers are super nice and take an interest in you no matter what fitness level you’re at. Motion fitness has been awesome to me. Their staff are exceptional, the overall vibe is great and I have had nothing but good experiences. I definitely recommend them to my friends and family and anyone who is trying to go to a family friendly gym. If you are looking for private gym vibes, then try going at night.
Great gym! Very convenient location and hours.
Absolutely amazing gym, whenever James is at the front desk or on the floor, he always greets me with a smile and asks how I am . The staff in general is absolutely amazing and makes me feel comfortable! The gym itself is amazing as well, you can tell the equipment is well taken care of and well cleaned due to COVID. I absolutely love this gym since it’s also close to home!
This gym is always very neat and organized. The staff here really care about the people. They don't only show up to work but to also contribute to the positive atmosphere. I really enjoy working out here.
I've been working out here since 2016. Love the staff, love the equipment, and super convenient for where I live
Definantly the best gym I've been to!
Likely one of the most expensive gyms in the city for no justifiable reason. $31.49 after taxes nets you 14 days at the gym; however they will also randomly hit you with hidden “maintenance fees” of $51.45 on-top of your membership fees costing you well over $100 for 1 month of membership at times. They have significantly cut hours at this location from the advertised 24 hours, as well as Stonebridge and Lawson, with no update for over a year now as to when they will return; yet Brighton location manages to fulfill the 24 hour promise as advertised. No towel service at any location. Vague, non-descript and poorly enforced guidelines regarding Covid-19 health measures. All of these pain points and they still indiscriminately hit you with over $100/month of fees so you can have access to an understaffed and poorly maintained gym. Honestly just go to GoodLife or Snap Fitness, no hidden fees and they are transparent about their hours and guidelines with no false advertising. The only star earned here is that the staff are pretty friendly.
good place for workout
I highly recommend Motion Fitness. The staff is kind and helpful and the gym is clean. If there is a problem the staff is quick to help you fix it. It's a great community to become a part of.
Anyone who likes to work out at a clean gym would appreciate the Blairmore Motion Fitness. Heavy weights, nice steam room, convenient location!
One of my favourite locations to go to! Always super clean. The staff here is amazing, honestly come here because of the staff!
The gym has plenty of equipment but I find each location has a bit different selection. I use to go to Goodlife and it was nice because they had everything you need in 1 place and so many more squat racks etc. And the employees Arnt very welcoming at motion. I always felt so welcomed every time I entered Goodlife. Switched gymed because I moved. ????♀️
Have been with the gym for only 4 months and have spent 813.68 on family membership so far, Raised membership pricing with out notice. I will be canceling my membership asap. Can get the same if not more access to facilities with a for fit for less and leisure center pass, only difference is people are dressed better.
Equipment is way too close together. There's also not enough equipment. No decline bench and not enough bars for all the benches. The Brighton location is set up much better. Out of all the Saskatoon locations this one is the dirtiest. I only come to this one sometimes cause it's closer to my house. I will gladly drive farther to go to any other location. Tried to give this gym another chance but they don't enforce proper mask wearing. The other location they have a trainer walking around telling people to pull their mask up.
This gym is the best gym around. Makes me feel like family here
Motion fitness seems to take money from your bank account as they please. Pay up front or be surprised with hidden fees, upwards of 100$ without notice or warning.
Over priced and hidden charges every quarter.
The Staff was Friendly, I got talked into a Personal Trainer. Fine, but had issues with payments so I had to cancel. they didn't accept me canceling and decided I should have $8000 in collections to pay for the personal training sessions I didn't even get...
Was In town for weekend, could have used gym I already have access to from my home town, motion was beside hotel, thought we would try out. Had no issues with being able to drop in during covid . Front staff was professional an quick to get us in. Gym was very clean an huge ! All the equipment I needed was available for my workouts . No egos in the gym just all good people ! Highly recommend !!
Great staff. ALWAYS HELPFUL AND NICE
Kids love it,very warm,lots of activities,caregivers are very nice and the place is clean
I’m giving Motion fitness in Blairmore 3 stars because they do NO maintenance on the tanning beds. The lights are always half burnt out and the dust covering the bulbs tells me they never change them. A lot of the gym equipment are in the stupidest spots (though Lawson motion fitness is the worst for this) And like all motion fitness’s in Saskatoon they are way way to busy.
The front desk staff is very helpful. Always welcoming and friendly. Nice gym. Definitely recommend this location.
Good gym staff is friendly but the mangers aren’t nice at all. You think they would be more friendly for being in the fitness industry.
I joined Motion Fitness Blairmore on June 13,2020 after working out at a "discount gym" for over 5 years, all I can say is that you get what you pay for. Motion Fitness and its employees are second to none.The facilities are awesome, well maintained and cleaning staff do a great job of keeping it clean. Also a week after I joined they had a promo of a free membership until October 2020 which I wasn't aware off until one of the friendly staff members mentioned it to me and informed me that I would not have to pay any fees until October. So if you haven't yet joined a gym, I highly recommend checking out Motion Fitness, you'll be happy you did. And its free until October 2020.
This is a great gym. Been going to it since they opened this location. Friendly staff and clean, makes it enjoyable to go to. The complaints about contracts are stupid so ignore them. I’ve managed gyms before it’s no different than any other club in this city people just don’t read their contracts or forget what they read. It’s standard for any contract at any gym to end its term to go month to month until you cancel.
Excellent service and nice environment and also childcare lady is very friendly and caring person my daughter love to go there ❤
staffs are very friendly specially the girl at the front =)
People and staff are amazing, gym is awesome!! no complaints
I love everything about the Blairmore daycare facility. My kids have been going there since my eldest was 6 weeks old, he's now 10. The women that work there are so great with the kids. The room is very cleanly and bright, which I love. I have nothing but positive feedback for the blairmore facility.
I went in to cancel my membership because i am moving, The "superviser" there at the time was very hostile. even tho i am leaving your service i would expect professional courtesy through the whole process. I know about the cancelation policy and am fine with it, I had no issues. I was only there to cancel very simple process. but she handled the situation poorly and very unprofessional. You should treat all customers the same no matter if they are joining or leaving. New review. You say to email but yet the email you gave doesn't even exist and the emails just bounce back. nice to see customer satisfaction doesn't hold a spot in your company.
Love how clean the gym is and the staff is phenomenal. Thanks.
Nice gym. Friendly staff and kept fairly clean. Lots of room to park.
Froze my membership when I had to go to another city for work, then I tried to cancel later on. Had multiple conversations on the phone trying to sort it out (management is terrible to deal with). Now a year later I get a call from collections, apparently I owe them $300. After being a loyal member over 4 years and only cancelling because I moved away this is unbelievable. They blame me for not giving them proper notice but they won't go back and find the multiple phone calls I had with them giving them PLENTY of notice.
(Translated) black shop (Original) 黑店
This place is such a scam... or should i say the people working there. i came and asked how much a gym membership was and they told me 100$ and i told them there insane if they think anyone is gonna pay that then i asked for a drop in and that’s as 20$. I later then say a advertising sign saying it’s around 24$. So the girl working was trying to scam me.
Peter is the best after me
Staff is very helpful and facility is a great place to work out!
Co worker and I working in area for 3 days tried to do a walkin at a cost understood. Manager would not compromise wanted us to by a 99$ membership. When we explained we just wanted to do a walkin he said he could not as it was a covid policy. Yet if we paid the 99$ we could go right in. Very poor customer service. Staff should be terminated. If money is walking out the door, they are over charging their members.
James at Blairmore stonebridge was extremely helpful. He took initiative to help me with my issue today. It’s staff like James that allows me to feel good about my yearly membership at motion fitness. Thank you
The personal trainers here are awesome.
After year membership was finished they still keep taking money out of your account. Since I moved away they told me I needed to send them photo ID and a cancellation form in. Who the hell has a scanner? Then after all of that you must give them a 31-day cancelation so they can scam another month of membership fees out of you. Decent gym, scum bag management.
Enjoy challenging myself at this gym. With the guidance of Ryan Di Valerio I am discovering my own strength. There have been a few aches along the way, but Ryan ensures I am safe to carry on. At 59, he takes care of me, gently building my confidence and always cheering me on. He is kind, genuine, always professional and loves to chat…i think more to distract me as he pushes me further. Motion fitness Blairmore provides a great atmosphere, great staff, who are always friendly and go beyond to make that early morning workout where you want to be.
I joined Blairmore Motion Fitness in October of 2020, I have joined gyms before but found it difficult to stay committed. Terrified of being the one who didnt know what she was doing, the one who ran out of breath on the treadmill, the one who would sweat when barely doing anything. I decided when I joined this time I would get a coach/trainer to keep me accountable ... I met with the manager James and he paired me up with a brand new coach/trainer JJ for 6 months, and what a life changing experience it has been. JJ from the get go showed he was in this field to help his clients get the results they want, always there for extra help when needed, always pushing you for that extra rep. My goals are being met and I am doing more at the gym then I ever imagined. I was nervous as heck, but all the staff from James, the front desk staff, the people working to keep the gym safe and clean, and JJ always made me feel like I was apart of a new found family. 8 months later and I am still working with JJ, I love the hellos, have a good day and all the other encouragement from everyone at Blairmore Motion Fitness, staff and other gym goers... can not imagine my life without the Gym, thank you everyone at Blairmore for helping this girl ease into and fantastic new lifestyle! -- Cheers
I used to work at a gym part time and got a free membership, but paid to go here. I moved across the city and still drive across town to workout here. I believe that says something. The front desk is always there with smiles and great customer service when you come in. Most of all my trainer Jai. He has worked me from 300lbs to almost another milestone of below 200lbs. Not only does he work with my on physical activity, but also the mental and nutritional part of my journey. I would not be the heathy more confident version of myself today without him. Put a price on that....you can’t. If you are ready to start your journey I highly recommend starting it with Jai.
Very clean and nice gym with a really good environment
I really like the staff here, they are very nice and helpful. Excellent communication skills, always making everyone feel welcomed. All the machines are in good condition and if you don’t know how to do a certain exercise, the staff is awesome and they help you out happily!
I joined Motion some two years ago at Blairmore location Saskatoon. I was very impressed by the quality of free weights, cables, machines, and motivating climate that stimulates focused workouts. The staff and management are nice to everyone. However, I briefly decided to cancel my membership to explore other possible gyms, only to discover motion is superior. So I re-activated my motion fitness membership plan today because it’s the best gym in town...
Worst gum you could ever go rude staff tissues were here and there
Worst gym ever!!! Don't signup for membership!!!!!
Best company I have ever worked at!
Clean and friendly environment the child care staff always available for my daughter,,,,my daughter never wants to leave i usually have to drag her out my 7 year old still enjoying coming to which is bonus ????
I love this gym!!! Yeah buddy- DJ JoeyD
Best gym in saskatoon with the best staff! I think of this place as my second home
Nice gym, friendly staff
I have been working at motion fitness blairmore for 6 years , and the childcare is amazing all the childcare staff have been amazing to my girls always taking care of them good, especially humaira she always pays alot of attention to all the children and makes sure they have a lot of fun and alot of love. Would definitely recommend this childcare to anyone looking for a fun and positive environment for there children .best gym childcare hands down!
Very good gym, nice clean equipment :)
I have to say massage chair was unbelievable. I will be going back.
I have been training with Ryan at Blairmore Motion fitness for the past year and a half and would highly recommend him! I always get a great workout, he is flexible on training time and gives me information on nutrition and how to stay motivated at the gym. If you need a trainer ask for him, you will be sure to get the results you want.
Best location, not as busy as others and has the best staff out of any other location
Old worn down equipment. Tried 3 different treadmills before giving up and leaving. The belts fold up which is a major safety issue.
amazing place with alots of equipments for workout. They have seprate place for women which is very comfortable for women who just started their workout. And these days they follow all the procedure to make that place safe and clean for their customer which is excellent. Moreover, their staff is very helpful. Their personal trainers also always helpful.
I have been a member for just over a year the only complaint I have is I was never told of the increase in fees but with that being said I feel it meets my expectations and more ,clean ,lots of equipment and friendly staff ????
Everyone is kind and very professional. Jj really knows his stuff and my personal training has stepped up to the next level.
Clean, friendly, organized and services are great.
I've been a member for a couple years and I used one of the massage chairs for the first time...something bit me on my arm !! Twice !! Like a dust mite or..God forbid a bedbug. I alerted the desk staff, haven't heard anything more about it, but needless to say I won't be using those ever again !! ????
The experience of training at the Betts ave location has been amazing so far , it gets even better when you have trainer like JAI, he has phenomenal knowledge in the field, I have learnt so much from him not just about my physical fitness but about winning at the mind level as well , so if you want to grow mentally and physically JAI is the guy to talk to????????
Do not join this gym. After being forced to them by a !!ONE YEAR CONTRACT!! With fitness for 10 I tried to cancel because I moved away and didn’t need the membership anymore (also I never agreed to sign on with them) . I send 3 separate cancellation forms, each time the payments kept coming out. Sometimes 2 a month. After one manager finally got back to me after 6 months and agreed to cancel the membership dated from the first cancellation form (because I kept all three), I was fine. But low and behold the 60 day payments still came out. I’ve spent probably $400 for a membership I never agreed to in the first place.
Whether you're looking to jump start your fitness journey or need advice managing your fitness goals, I highly recommend JJ Del Castillo as a personal trainer. He is super competent, knowledgeable, a great motivator and coach. He is always there to answer any questions even when he's not working. Overall, great vibe/energy at Motion Fitness with amazing management, staff, trainers and members. Everyone is super friendly and helpful...a real family feeling. I couldn't ask for a better gym.
Our son has been training with JJ since March and we are already seeing done results. JJ has him motivated and working hard at his goals. Would highly recommend anyone who has a kid who got a little soft after Covid to reach out to JJ. He will get them in shape in no time.
Great place to go workout to achieve your goals and a great community
Motion Fitness - Blairmore how could you be so embarrassing humiliating and condescending. You said that my 48 lessons were finished when you knew 42 were done. How can you steal 6 lessons at $60 an hour and admit that you are doing this? Shame on you and enjoy your Karma! Jai Patel you’re an amazing instructor. If I had my own gym I would steal you!
Beware the 6 week cancellation policy. The gym brags no terms but not matter when you choose to cancel they will take an extra 3 payments from your account. A term might be better because you could sign up and then end your contract when your term is up. They will also offer you “free holds” on your account when something like COVID happens so you don’t cancel your account when they can’t charge you while they’re closed but then you miss a window of opportunity to leave and not pay for the 6 weeks.
Since James has become the manager at Motion Fitness Blairemore, the gym has become so much more welcoming, clean, and positive. His bright energy and focus on making the gym a better place for everyone to belong has truly shown! The ladies at the front desk are also lovely! Favourite Motion Fitness in Saskatoon!
Clean and lots of equipment. Only major flaw is they dont enforce putting your weights away. You have to walk all over the place and then dig for the plate you are looking for. And then remove someone else's plates
Staff is great for the most part. That being said I specifically asked if, after we cancelled, there would be any additional fees (other than the following 2 months we would need to pay for) and they said no. Now I see I was charged an additional $155 (for 3 of us) because of "enhancement fees". This was 1 month after I had already cancelled and 1 month before our final payment. I was told this was in the contract, however, when I specifically asked the employee assured me I would not have any of these charges. I would recommend almost any gym other than Motion Fitness. It is expensive enough without the hidden fees.
Purchased a punch pass while I'm in town working back in November was told I would need to wear a mask. After i explained i had a medical condition that prevented me from training with a mask they said exemptions were allowed if i had a doctors note. The next day i presented my doctors note which met the Saskatchewan mask mandate exemption criteria and I was allowed to train. So there was no confusion i was even given a pin by the establishment saying I was mask exempt. March 31st I received a phone call and was left a message saying as of today no more mask exemptions because there were too many complaints. Its very sad when a company decides to follow the bylaw including the part regarding the exemptions and goes back in their word because it's too much of a headache for them. This is a place of health and fitness and they are choosing to not acknowledge my health issues and ignore direct doctors orders. Im even more confused of why a few days ago the general manager introduced himself to me and was very nice and accommodating and didn't seem to have a problem then but 2 days later gets a front desk employee to contact me to cancel my exemption. I have been in touch with the saskatoon police, Saskatchewan health and the Saskatchewan human right commission and they all agree this has been handled very poorly and I have a case for discrimination. Hopefully this can be resolved.
Been with this gym for over a year and like the facilities. Had to pay sign up fee then another fee as my wife wanted to join so we did a family plan. She changed her mind after a year and because she cancelled i again have to pay a sign up fee. Seems like a money grab
Everything changed with motion no more 24/7 at all locations. Plus on top of that all the staff are not on the same page. And if you have to speak to a manager just go in they do not return calls. A week it almost took me to speak to a manager and the way the girl went into the office to let manager know I was there she had not been passing the call back messages over. Horrible service if you want a great gym and way more educated staff/trainers go to synergy sport therapy on Quebec Ave. They also have physo. chiro. massages. Motion has gone down hill don't waste your money
WARNING! I have never stepped foot into their gym and I have never signed a contract with them yet though because I had signed a one year contract with Fitness -10 5 YEARS AGO, apparently the information was passed onto Motion Fitness after they closed and I have just discovered that Motion Fitness has been charging my credit card every month. They are now making me go and sign a cancellation form AGAIN to cancel something I never asked for in the first place. I have never even been to their gym. So buyer beware! This is not a trustworthy company to do business with! I also just went and read a few other reviews and it looks like Motion Fitness likes to take peoples money even after contracts are cancelled. And yes, I agree with the other reviews, customer service is terrible. You cannot reach anyone and they are not helpful at all. Do not sign anything with this company!
I started training with Ryan at Blairmore location in Oct of 2019. I reviewed all that trainers at all the Saskatoon locations and felt Ryan was exactly what I needed and I was right. I started seeing immediate results and enjoyed going to the gym to train with him. After a major accident that forced me away from the gym, for 10months, I was happy to get back at it with Ryan about 3 months ago. His previous experience (in physio therapy and rehab work) has been a huge asset in allowing me to continue to rehab my injuries and avoid further injuries. Ryan has a strong knowledge of the body and training techniques as well and great ability to motivate without being pushing. I’d highly recommend contacting him and starting your journey.
Wow, I went for my workout today and Hallel greeted me with such friendliness.. she made me feel very welcome… I love this gym!!!
Love going to this location! I live out of town, but work in the city, and I drive to the opposite end of the city just to go to the Blairmore gym. It's well laid out and always clean!
This gym has a very friendly environment and the childcare staff, Humaira has been so nice and friendly with my daughter.
Good place to work. I love the staff!

Motion Fitness Blairmore is amazing! The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and always willing to help. They have done a great job making the gym feel like a comfortable, safe, and clean place to be during Covid. I love it here!

The staff are phenomenal!! I always look forward to going to the gym :)
Very nice environment and spacious. Lots of equipments. Women had different section which is very helpful
Members and staff are great but so many classes have been eliminated over the past two years. Now a days no gym class on Friday after 5 for people who work till 5. I have been a member for 5 years but “no thank you” anymore. I need options and if I pay more then when I started being a member I expect at least the same service.
