Reviews of REC Fitness (Gym)

Allyssa Grant

Amazing people, amazing space...AMAZING workouts.

Kira Hak

inspired. empowered. motivated. stronger. these are some of the things I feel after walking out of the doors of new wave after a workout. I know it can be scary walking into a gym for the first time but I felt welcomed on the first day and that made things so much easier&comfortable. Until new wave, I had never been able to keep motivated and consistently workout - working out is now a part of my life and I am SO grateful to everyone at new wave for that.

Brilliant workouts meant to make you feel good, from the inside out! My mind and body were challenged here, and with the experienced guidance of these powerful leaders, I came out with enough smiles to share. I look forward to getting there on a regular.

New Wave is completely different that any of the 100 gyms ive been too! First off there is the killer workout! From Spin to circuits to outdoor fun and sometimes even dancing you are never going to get the same thing and the trainers as well as your friends push you to your limits in the class. So after you work your a$$ off you chill. And I mean really chill, you leave forgetting you just sweat for an hour and worked harder than you ever had. You make great friends and not only work your body but also your mind. This place is the $hit and I try to convince all of my friends and family to come!

As an avid athlete and a lover of group fitness there are a few things I look for when joining: morivating coaches, positive atmosphere, good quality equipment and workouts that will make you sweat while being safe for your joints and healthy for your body. New Wave has all of these features. It is not just a workout space, it is a community. One that identifies the importance of fuelling our body, mind and soul. This is a great place to make new friends, achieve your physical goals and find balance in your day to day. Just bring a smile and a sweat towel!

I love this gym because it is different than any other gym in Kelowna. The workouts are intense and challenging but for some reason the trainers make you smile through them. The culture is different here. It's a whole mind and body experience. Lots of laughs, lots of sweat, great music, and my body looks and feels awesome.

I started going to Rec/new wave fitness last year as a recommendation by my niece, and loved the classes. There was an instructor there that was fabulous, blonde and used to do fitness competitions (perhaps she still does???), but cannot remember her name (she helped me drop from a size 14 to an 8 in just 8 months, could not believe it). Anyhow I had to leave due to medical reasons and taking care of my husband but still follow the account on social media platforms. I seem to find a great deal of connection between 'their' words written by the owner 'Nic' shared on their pages with some other popular fitness websites that I enjoy reading from time to time such as live strong and men's health for my husband. Why plagiarize? For a local fitness facility with close competitors, this does not look so good. I am disappointed to see that this is happening, I was looking forward to going back next year but if we see plagiarism on their social media platforms, are their instructors being authentic to their certification as well??? Disappointing.

I joined Rec Fitness with my husband to switch up our fitness routine at a place where we would feel comfortable exercising together. Rec has amazing, motivating instructors who support you but push your physical limits at the same time. I’m now 5 months pregnant and feel so supported as they continue to help accommodate my changing needs. If you’re looking to sweat hard and feel a part of a positive, welcoming community then this is the place for you.

Fix My Touch

The people here are awesome! Roz is great. It is always nice to see her. I highly recommend her classes.

Meghan Faust

Haven’t left this gym in over 10 years. Best place for a workout. Keeps getting better as years go by.

Marleigh Gaber

This place is the bomb! I couldn't ask for a better workout/facility/trainers. Every class is unique and high intensity. A fun warm up, intense class and a wicked mindful cool down and stretch. What else could you ask for? Oh and did I mention how amazing each one of the trainers' are. They all bring something different to class and I appreciate the diversity. Stacey has a good thing going on here I would highly recommend checking it out!

Meghan Tetrault

I have tried every gym in Kelowna, New wave is by far the most challenging, and inspiring. Its a no-more-bullshit, take-control-of-your-life wake up call walking into that place every single time. Also, they care a lot about community, which is super rad. The trainers are incredible, the facility is beautiful - this is a top notch place all around.

Oli-Beast Spielmann

Love the energy of everyone at New Wave! Great classes and positive vibes! Also so happy that they have wonderful childcare that my kids love! ❤️❤️❤️

Forrest Cooper

I have been in Kelowna for about a year and this gym has been the BEST thing to happen to me. The community feel here is incredible and every time I walk through the doors I am so excited to see all my friends and have a killer workout!!!

Trisha Rempel

I've been going to this gym for quite sometime now and I would say I wouldn't/couldn't go anywhere else. From their upbeat personalities to their ability to motivate, these trainers are amazing. Stacy has created a gym that not only kicks your butt but has created a family. No matter if its your first time or you've been their for a year you will always feel welcome. I've never sweated so much in my entire life.New wave has definitely has created a new me. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone big or small!

Cara Manning

Love this place!!

Nicole Podolsky

Feels like Home! After a long over-due return from a fitness hiatus, nothing feels more welcoming than a huge hug, a warm smile and a bunch of burpees and side planks! If you're looking to motivate and challenge your body, mind and spirit, this is the coolest place and these are the most amazing people...here for you and your soul food!

Brittney Zaharichuk

REC is a amazing Gym Community with lovely members. This gym is for individuals who seek discomfort and a killer push for themselves. This gym + trainers make you sweat and make sure you get W(REC)KED! LOVE IT XOX

Laura Ellison

If you want a GREAT workout: look no further. From the second you walk in the door, the staff learn and remember your name. Attending new gyms can sometimes be intimidating but Rec immediately welcomes you into their community and family like atmosphere. The work outs are fantastic. The trainers are professional, super approachable and ensure that your form is correct and that you get the most out of your workout. The workouts are an hour but time flies when you're having fun! Beginners or athletes- this is your spot.

Jasmine G

Amazing place with wonderful people. Great way to maximize your time. You can get a solid sweat on in under an hour. Beneficial for your mind, body and soul this place has it all. Love New Wave and all their beautiful people!!!

Rec Fitness has changed my life in so many ways! Such a great space, great people, amazing trainers and the workouts never disappoint! Would recommend this gym to anyone and any fitness level!

kendra england

New Wave Fitness is the only gym that I've been to that challenges me in both my mental and physical fitness. All the trainers are so motivating to the point that makes me enjoy working out no matter how tired I am. I always leave the fitness studio eager to come back the next day and train again.

Dragica Schmidt

I love this gym! I have tried classes at many other gyms and Rec is by far the best! Challenging classes and the instructors are all so great! I love that they focus on different muscle groups on different days instead of only full body type classes that are so common at other gyms. I really have seen the most results going to this gym!

Lauren Dudley

I am so proud to say I belong to New Wave Fitness. The studio is clean, bright, and inviting. It is always a guaranteed fun and challenging workout led by amazing trainers who take the time to get to know you and support you regardless if you've been going to NWF for 2 years or 2 days. I leave each class feeling stronger, happier, and inspired. Stacy, the owner, has fostered a unique blend of workout and work"in" as she says, come and try it out and you will be hooked!

I love Newwave Fitness!!! Everything about this gym is amazing: atmosphere, trainers, workouts, energy, you name it. You will never regret going to a class!

Sarah Osachoff

Excellent place to find a love for fitness. Such a supportive environment, like family ( but without all the drama over thanksgiving dinner)

Ash Puri

Today's leg day was AWESOME. Maddie made us do plyos and strength training in today's workout. Well worth the leg shakes!!!My legs are still swole from the 915 class.

Candice Newton

Fantastic vibe! Never the same class twice! Everyone is super friendly!

Shawna Ryan

I cant say enough good things about this place, it's the best. If you are looking for a gym you should definitely do yourself a favor and try New Wave Fitness. The trainers put an incredible amount of effort and helpful encouragement into these workouts and it really makes all the difference. Personally, I would never have been able to see the same kind of results on my own or at any other gym. So really, its easy....just check it out, you won't regret it.

Nicola Holmes

My wife and I moved to Kelowna 2 years ago and searched for a gym that provided an environment to work hard, challenge us and help achieve our fitness goals. We not only found this at Rec but found a space where we can enjoy every workout. The trainers are awesome and the members are amazing! Rec is not just a gym, it’s a community where you can reach your fitness goals. I’d recommend this gym to anyone! ????

Jade Hollenbeck
