Reviews of Dynasty Gym Burnaby (Gym)

Tyron Piteau, BHK

Dynasty is a great gym! Mina and her team do an excellent job in programming and providing scaling regressions for those who need modifications as well as progressions for those who want it more challenging. They also have organized the workout area in a very user friendly way especially during this pandemic. They really care about your health and safety and it shows. Highly recommend this gym to anyone.

I have major commitment issues when it comes to sticking with a gym routine! Couple of classes with Mina and I knew I’m in this for the long haul. The vibe and energy in this gym is so contagious, I look forward to going here more often than I had initially hoped! No matter what session you attend, each trainer provides individual attention and work with you based on your level of ability, despite a full class, which for me is mindblowing! I absolutely love the whole community vibe where members encourage each other to do better and get stronger together, and I’m very glad to be part of this! Disclaimer: It can get quite addictive, but in a good way!

LOVE THE VIBE!!! Started personal training with Jon 3 weeks ago and it’s been great. The gym is clean and have everything you need for weight lifting/ CrossFit. Jon is a super cool guy, replied to all the concerns I have even during weekend. Truly feel that he cares about his trainees. Over all I am having a good experience here and will continue training here.

Great addition to the Dynasty gym family. I used to attend their first location downtown and was super excited to hear they where opening a second one. If you're looking to do some Olympic lifting there is really no other place that does what these guys do in the metro Vancouver area.

I enjoy CrossFit because of the community and the program. The community is amazing because everyone is just so positive and willing to help each other out reach their goals. The program is amazing because Coach Mina takes care of her students! She makes sure that her students are properly scaled depending on how advanced you are. If you just started out, she’ll make sure you’ll get the same intensity as much as everyone else in the box without worrying to do the advanced and more complicated movements ????

I've just started personal training with Mina for 3 weeks and it's been a great experience so far. Mina is a great coach, especially if you are beginners. She is dedicated and passionate. Love the vibe and the energy all the coaches bring to the studio. The gym is not big but it has everything you need to do weightlifting and functional fitness.

Being a member at both the Dynasty Vancouver and Dynasty Burnaby, the wealth of knowledge the owners (Patrick, Richard, and Mina) and the incredible coaches have in their craft truly shows in how they teach their Weighlifting and CrossFit classes. I couldn’t be more excited for them to share and build a strong community environment that they’ve built in the downtown location to Burnaby. I’ve never been more happy in choosing a gym that provides top of the line services to athletes of all levels with multiple locations. I highly recommend joining this gym. You’ll learn so much in your workouts - be prepared for it to be killer but hey! That is the reason why you are joining :)

Great gym! Mina and John are both awesome coaches and they always have a great energy about them!

Slavik Glazyrin

Top notch Crossfit, weightlifting, and mobility classes + professional coaching. You'll feel welcome here whether you are just starting your fitness journey or coming in as a seasoned veteran.

Renan Shimabucuro

Just started working out at Dynasty Gym Burnaby few weeks ago. The Gym has a good size (fits a 14 people CrossFit class) and has lots of natural light. The staff is very friendly, and the atmosphere is relaxing (even with intense workouts).

Alex S.

Great people and an awesome vibe all around. If you're looking to join a community-oriented CrossFit gym, that's definitely the place to go.

Jelena Krutaja

Great gym in a very convenient location for those living in North Burnaby. Team of coaches is good, super friendly and supportive.

Jeselle Castro

Have been doin Crossfit for about 6 years and i've been doing so cause of the quality of coaching and community. I was coached by Coach Mina for a few years and she always makes sure that the class is well managed, good in technique and most importantly fun! i encourage everyone to attend her class!!

Mia Layug

I love that CrossFit is about community and sharing. I find myself doing a workout with someone right beside me in a CrossFit class or sharing the challenges that come along with efforts to become a better version of myself but what I love the most is celebrating personal victories with those around me. This could be as simple as unlocking a new skill (the ability to do something I never thought I could or would do) or as grand as achieving a personal milestone in life. These victories could be mine or the person working out next to me but either way, both bring joy to my ❤️ I am happiest to be part of this community???????????? Merge CrossFit/Sta.

Great CrossFit gym. Super accommodating and not too busy. Can’t wait to continue my fitness journey here.

I am so happy to have found this gem of a gym! I've been scouring the neighbourhood and wasn't able to find a gym that I really connected with. Glen and Mina at Dynasty made me feel so welcome! Glen has been so helpful in training me and getting me stronger each day and without judgement. I feel totally comfortable in this space and have been seeing results so quickly. Thanks so much for the amazing classes!!!

Michael Currie

Superior gym and fitness classes. The gym is a combination of a crossfit box, an olympic lifting gym and a a group fitness gym. Classes are great and high energy. Coaches are great and very friendly. Workouts are intense but coaches are not pushing people to be overly competitive or put themselves at risk. Very friendly atmosphere. Super clean and safe. All participants train in their own designated, taped off area and have their own equipment. Very rigorous cleaning. Feel safe training here.

Ashley Prince

I really love going to the gym here. The people are wonderful and Mina is a great coach.

Nice place

TJ Harmony

Dynasty Gym Burnaby is an outstanding community gym in The Heights of Burnaby. The coaches are exceptional. They are attentive and encouraging. The programming is challenging and adaptable to your fitness abilities. Everyone gets a great workout. The facility has been updated to cater to this weird season of COVID-19 safety. It feels safe and a great place to get a good sweat in the company of amazing people. The membership fees are worth the value you get in the service and the quality of care. Whether you feel like you are ready to hit a gym or not I encourage you to give Dynasty a try. You won't regret it. It may be the best decision you'll make.

Carlos Andres Rojas

They where not interested in attending me. Even called there to ask for their services and the girl who answered promised to send info which she never did.... poor costumer service even without being a client

Dr. Aisha I Your Change Specialist

Love the training space and equipment. I have been especially grateful for the precautionary measures taken to maintain social distance and sanitize. The coaches are mindful and knowledgeable. my favorite place to train!

Catherine Garrett

This is the most positive experience I've had in a gym - ever. It's empowering, fun and challenging and supportive. The sessions are a highlight of my week, and Connie is so patient and supportive and an amazing teacher.

Sacha Devoretz

Fantastic gym for a beginner or an experienced athlete. Warm, friendly and supportive atmosphere.

Rachel Gavin

So far soooo good! I'm new to CrossFit and new to the Dynasty community but so far my experience has been super positive (and I don't see that changing any time soon). The box is nice and spacious, lots of equipment, and super conveniently located. Mina is a great coach, I really appreciate how she breaks down all the movements for noobs like me :)

lilach marom

Great gym, big and clean. Good coaches and fun atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Juls Duque

Amazing coaches. Great for anyone who wants to get fit, have fun and meet very nice people.

Lindsay

What a gem! Dynasty Gym is building something really special in Burnaby. The team is really committed to creating a fitness family and I immediately felt welcomed and at home. Coach Mina is awesome! You can really feel how much she cares and is invested in each individual’s progress. No matter where you’re at on your fitness journey she’s there to help you succeed. Come check it out, it will be the best hour of your day!

Pınar Kavak

Excellent gym, awesome trainers, friendly, fun members! What else could I wish? I am very happy to be part of Dynasty Burnaby! I feel that I am not being lazy anymore and I am doing some work with right people at the right place!

Pepe Picco

Great Facility, great instruction and great energy

Raul Reyesmazariegos

Dynasty is a great place for training! They help improve my forms and posture. I recommend if anyone who needs help shown the proper way to lift!

Anik

Great atmosphere and team there- Richard, Patrick and Mina are great coaches. Took my first cross fit class and have taken their Olympic weightlifting class and both are awesome. The environment is laid back and welcoming and the coaches really emphasize proper technique which I appreciate.

Melissa L

I LOVVEEEE Dynasty! Mina the owner is really technical, helpful and such a great educator! She is patient, professional and so down-to-earth! She always facilitates a class that can be modified for any fitness level and it is always a new learning experience for me. Every workout I have been to is a guaranteed SWEAT! I love the vibe and the open concept gym, everything is neatly organized and well spaced out. I was always really scared of Crossfit but can't wait to try it! All the instructors and trainers really break down each step so you can understand the full movement.

Tommy Ju

This gym is like a community that welcomes newcomers like me with open arms and enthusiasm. The staff here are incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely want the best for you. No matter what your experience level is, they will make sure that you reach your fitness goals in a safe and proper manor. This gym feels like a supportive place where everyone has their own goals no matter how big or small.

Sophie Lowe

Great space and even better coaching. Mina is absolutely wonderful. She makes you feel comfortable and will adjust according to you needs/prior injuries. I would highly recommend this gym!

Steve Strain

Mina is really sweet and the Dynasty team is a pleasure to train with. They’ve taught me some new things and it’s a lot of fun!

hosan ho

great vibe and great people

Sonia Na

I looked into this place because i was looking for an independent community-minded gym that had a strength/ functional movement focus, and because I've always wanted to learn how to lift barbell weights properly (i.e. without breaking something). Everyone i've met there so far has been friendly, supportive and helpful. Would recommend, whether you are just starting out, or are more advanced in your fitness level.

Monica Au Yeung

Gym is great and people are really friendly. I just got back into working out with a PT after having a baby, Jonathan is amazing at what he does and is very patient and attentive to his clients. He breaks down the material into small sections if the sets is difficult to do at first. He accommodated to me by allowing me to bring my baby when working out I recommend to all moms interested in going back to their pre-pregnancy bodies to check out the gym and trainer because he will accommodate you to the best of his ability.

Victor Tiapis

Very impressive coaching! I was amazed on the emphasis on detail while learning the olympic weight lifting techniques. The level of coaching is outstanding and just over three weeks of training there I already feel at home. As someone new in Crossfit and Olympic Weight Lifting, technique and safety was a priority for me. The coaching staff at Dynasty Burnaby covered all that, teaching the basics and ground work before I was jumping into full on workouts.

G. K.

Awesome gym and community. It is always important to find a place that will motivate and welcome you. Makes you want to be there everyday to strive for greatness. A big reason for this is the coach, Mina. Very knowledgeable, sweet and pushes you to your limits!

Janethwang Work

Great vibe here! First time trying crossfit and staff really take the time to show you how to move properly. Fun group!

Danielle VanNorden

Friendly community environment, and small class sizes so lots of coaching help for beginners <3

Tao Zeng

This is the best cross-fit gym I went to so far. The area is spacious. The equipment are abundant. The trainers, all of them are very positive and encouraging. I have injuries on my arms and they are very accommodate to modify the workout to adapt to my needs. They push you to work harder but also respect your limitations, and very happy for you to just be there and get moving, instead of being super competitive. I am also very amazed by how considerate their washrooms are. They got hair ties, wet wipes, facial tissues, and deodorant for everyone who needs them. This is also a service dog in training friendly gym. If any trainers out there wants to expose your pup to weights droppings and gym environment this is the place to go. Overall I strongly recommend everyone to try this gym out. No matter you are new or experienced, they will find the best workouts for you.

Alex Veloz

Great Gym. Everyone is very approachable and supportive.

Kishore Hari

Really enjoyed working with both Richard and Patrick during the Olympic Lifting sessions. They were so patient and understanding, and had a very effective approach to teaching all of the main lifts. Highly recommend!

Wilson Tu

One of the best gyms that I have been! Have nice people great coaches 10/10 recommend

J. N

I am so fortunate to have met Mina! She is always positive and is truly a professional at what she does. She takes time to teach and motivate in every class. Down to earth humble gym. Looking forward to future classes !

Tainá Donatelli Ares

Currently on my 3rd week and I already really like this place. Great gym, awesome coaches and really nice ppl!

Cheryl Walilko

This gym has everything you need from high quality personal training, conditioning classes, CrossFit, power lifting and Olympic lifting all in one space. The coaches are very well trained, supportive and ensure the athletes receive individual attention and make corrections to form constantly. If you want to learn how to lift weight and move correctly this is the place to come.

Renan Jacob Casabuena

Coach Mina was one of the first coaches I had when I started doing CrossFit. She teaches movements and mechanics well, but what separates her from others is how she can motivate. She knows the right words to say (or shout hahaha) when you look like you don't wanna do another burpee. Would definitely recommend taking her classes!

lenka kubesova

Amazing place to workout! Clean facilities, extra spacious with loads of new equipment. CrossFit Classes that are tailored to your needs, in a nice friendly environment coached by Mina who’s very attentive and always makes sure we get a great workout. I’ve been a member of their first Vancouver location and recently been attending few classes here in Burnaby. As the one in Vancouver location, this gym is absolute gem , easily accessible by public transport ( rapid bus), and I feel so lucky to be able to use both of their locations. The owners really take care of their place and members. Thank you very much again for making this place so special.

Calvin Kuah

Amazing atmosphere at the group classes and the coaches will push you to work out harder. The motivation, form correction and pointers from the coaches are great during workouts.

Melissa Searle

First time to the Burnaby location but exactly like the Downtown Dynasty - Consistent, professional, & very encouraging coaches. Great community feel. They provide guidance for all level of athletes. New equipment, clean facility and easy parking. Coach Mina is the BOMB!

Kevin Park

As someone who's completely new to Olympic weightlifting and hasn't touched a barbell in quite a few years, this gym has been fantastic. With the coaches help, getting into each movement and learning the basics has been very simple, but of course still tiring. It's been very enjoyable to learn and see my progression in such complicated movements. The coaches have a progression system set up that is very friendly to a wide range of fitness levels that properly teaches you the fundamentals of each lifting movement. The staff and the gym members are also very friendly creating a great atmosphere to exercise in. Overall Dynasty Gym's a great place to learn new lifts or improve your overall level of fitness. Really glad I managed to find this location and make the decision to try it out.

Bryce Pomponio

Great staff. Great workout. Highly recommend

Grant G

Really enjoy the vibe and super cool people. Never really got into the power lifting scene before but everyone was friendly and willing to help. Highly recommend for those wanting to get into the sport. I’ve made pretty quick progress as well which has been motivating.

Meena Mangat

Wonderful staff. Patient, kind, motivational and flexible. My experience at Dynasty has been nothing short of amazing!

annabelle z.

I absolutely LOVE Dynasty gym very spacious with new equipment to play with and very clean, great people and atmosphere! I really enjoy the variety of exercises, Coaches Mina and the team (Richard & Patrick) are absolutely amazing and very welcoming and super motivating. For all levels of fitness and ages. Highly recommend you give it a try!

Billy goodman

I wish I could give this place more than five stars! I started discussing things with my trainer long before I even started at the gym and I loved her immediately! They have been so accommodating with all of my needs! I love working with Connie!

Warren Sing

Best Olympic Lifting coaches in the game. Rich & Patrick broke down my form and within a few sessions I got a 20 lb Snatch PR based on new technique alone. Mina is super knowledgeable and has a friendly attitude/energy. She will encourage you through your comfort zone with a smile if she knows you’re cheating yourself by slacking. That’s what a great coach does. Awesome team. Amazing members. Thanks Dynasty, for the gains ????.

Kai Luo

Best weightlifting gym/coaches in BC. Patrick is by far the best coach I have worked since I started weightlifting. 10/10 would recommend coming to dynasty to train.

Sylvia Gao

It’s a really nice CrossFit gym in Burnaby, the program is well written, you will see progress over time. Love the people there, everyone is working hard, you got push urself. Highly recommended

Alice Tso

For me, the Dynasty Burnaby gym is a clean and expansive space to train at. Mina & Patrick is not only inviting to everyone who walks through the doors, in my experience their space is built off a foundation of a community mindset where people uplift people to play together. I train with Jon and he is an excellent coach! His style of coaching can be applied yielding clear results both on the training ground and outside in life. Thank you guys for allowing me to be apart of the Dynasty community! I appreciate the positive space and energy =)

Ross Sabiston

The staff, the equipment, the space. All 5 stars. Their app is great and cancellation policy is very reasonable. 3 hours. Getter done.

David Orge

Olympic and Crossfit coaches are friendly and very knowledgeable. Good size gym. If you are looking to do rope climbs, this is not the gym for you. Haha. (Unless it’s L-sit rope climbs!!). I’m very satisfied with the time I’ve spent at Dynasty Gym Burnaby. They even helped me post a few PR’s!

Umut Certel

An awesome new crossfit/weightlifting location in North Burnaby. All new equipment, great space, amazing coaches and a fun crowd! I highly recommend this place if you want to have a killer workout day after day while having lots of fun!

Peter Battistin

I am new to the gym, not only do I love working out in the Daily Sweat with Glen, Mackenzi and Drew, but the gym has a lot of equipment and strong cleaning protocols

Eric d'Entremont

A very helpful and friendly environment to train in. Nothing but positive experiences with coaches and other members.

Bernadette Balingit

Excellent coaching! Coach Mina has the gift and talent of teaching. She’s able to break down each move into its component parts and put it all back together. No athlete is too young or too old to try her classes.

Steve Dervan

Hi, my name is Steve I am a 62 year old male, recovering from open heart surgery. I have been attending the cross fit and mobility classes at Dynasty Gym twice per week for the last month or so. I find the classes challenging ( which is what I wanted ) but I know my limitations and tailor my workouts to suit. All the staff have been fantastic with me since I started, they know how much to push me and when not to, it is very comforting to know that they are monitoring me and paying attention to my well being. The classes are always varied so you never get bored and the individual attention you receive, no matter how big or small the class, is wonderful. The people in the classes are great too, everyone is friendly, they encourage and support each other, and have welcomed me into their classes as one of their own, even though I am miles behind them in terms of fitness levels. This social aspect is very refreshing for me and makes me want to keep working out. I am more than happy that I joined Dynasty and feel lucky to have someone as knowledgeable and helpful as Mina as our instructor, she is a joy to behold. My advice to anyone who reads this is, no matter how old or what kind of you shape you are in, join Dynasty, you will not regret it. From a very satisfied customer, onwards and upwards. Cheers Steve

Alfonso Palermo

Currently on my third week and really enjoying the great people and atmosphere. This is the place to be at if your looking to get Strong and Fit. The coaches are all very knowledgeable and helpful especially if you’ve never lifted weights like myself. On my first assessment, coach Jon pin pointed my previous injuries and weaknesses without me saying a word! I was quite impressed. If your looking for a fun place to workout with amazing classes and a happy attitude. This is the place to be at! I look forward to bigger gains and becoming a healthier me!

Mikhail Yourchenko

The Olympic Weightlifting classes are exactly what I was looking for. The coaches provide lots of advice and are very perceptive in terms of mistakes. If you want someone to nitpick everything wrong with your lifting, as well as notice and praise your accomplishments and improvements this is an amazing place to train.

Jaci Benson

I might as well write a little review since it was the reviews, in the end, that led me to Dynasty! I haven't done crossfit (or much training) in the last year and a half, and I was looking for something close to home. I appreciate the variety in the workouts, the scheduling and the sanitation methods that are currently implemented. Thanks to Mina for answering my initial email so quickly, with clarity, and a breakdown of the classes. I really appreciate how welcoming and encouraging everyone has been. I've only been to a few classes so far, and I am loving it!

Jessica C

In short, great facility, professional coaches and an amazing community!! I remember years ago when I first started CrossFit at somewhere else hoping to lose weight (more specifically: freshman 15) almost every workout was SO painful back then. It was Dynasty's owner Mina who made me fall in love with the sport and the community. Then I started to enjoy the process and workout (maybe not so much on those assault bikes...????) Mina made me believe that I could do better and helped me to achieve my goals. She is very detail oriented, encouraging, patient and experienced in coaching. Highly recommend this place whether your level of fitness. The community is very welcoming; they will always have a spot for you. ????
