This Gym belongs to the category of Fitness center.
Great facility, always clean and tidy. The staff are super friendly and helpful. 24 hour access is really convenient too.
Great gym!!
I moved from Winnipeg but they still want me to pay I only went their for 3-4 days but need to pay for 1 years They told me about cancellation but still need to pay for the year even I’m not using the gym and not living in Manitoba.
Gym is very clean all the time. Great quantity of the equipments, never gonna wait for the machines.Very friendly environment and staff members are always welcome everyone with a warm smile.
Nice gym, but not always clean.
Gym is Nice but there is a staff member , a tall man at night , he is very rude , he have no idea how to talk at all . Its very hard to understand him and he is loud and rude . This is a customer service job communication is a important part. He should be advised to be nice or talked to cause this happens everyday with lot of people i have seen and some of my friends as well.
I have a positive experience going to Shapes Fitness McPhilips. The staff are nice and professional especially Shubh; she gave us a tour of the facility and answered our questions without rushing even though we arrived near the end of her shift. The facility is clean and the equipments are well maintained. They have good selection of group classes as well. The only reason im giving it a four is because they only have 1 year commitment option. I personally would love to be able to commit for 3mos or 6mos.
Very friendly staff, always smiling and gives you a positive vibe. The facility is very clean and neat, overall a great workout place. Enjoy working out here a lot.
Disappointed with mask policy of the gym …i am fully vaccinated moreover manitoba govt making the mask personal choice and they say you can only enter if you are wearing mask where as when you see no body is wearing mask once they enter the exercise area ..so what is the whole point of carrying the mask and wear it just in the entrance area ..is it stopping the covid in any given way
Personnels are the nicest person ever. And the gym is big. They have a wall climbing facility too.
Great facility! Staff are amazing especially Ali. She is extremely knowledgeable, helpful and very pleasant everytime she is working! Staff like this set Shapes McPhillips apart from other gyms.
Excellent service by front desk.
I signed up for the Cyber Monday BOGO sale which was a no brainer for couples. I recently switched from Fit4Less which as of lately has had a lot of broken machines. Shapes has more equipment to utilize which is a huge plus, as well as friendly staff and tons of parking. I am also keen on the sauna and wouldn’t mind taking some classes in the future.
Great facility.
I was going to another gym in the area for many years; came here for guest visit one day enjoyed the atmosphere and the service I signed up within a few days. Natalia was great at getting me all set up & answered all questions I had. Thanks
The gym should not be qualified for the services and from my personal experience with them they were not able to explain me the things they have and the staff was gossiping with each other. Even I was standing there they were ignoring me. They are helpless at all
Its good place to workout but time should be more like minimum 1 hour 30 mnts minimum everytime have to book two times
Great place to come and workout friendly staff and friendly people
Funny how i was told to wear mask if i want to enter and after entering i can remove it ..i mean what is point of that as well ..disappointed with this policy ….Manitoba govt has lifted the restrictions of mask indoors ..so it should be upto customers whether they want to wear it or not
AMAZING PLACE
Overall not a bad gym, the staff are friendly, the gym is clean enough. Some of the equipment is outdated which takes away from the overall experience.
SHAPES MCPHILLIPS HAS TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND POOR MANAGEMENT I am placing a formal complaint about not receiving my key fob that I had purchased back in January 30, 2020. At the time of purchase, the associate I spoke with said my key fob would be ready within 7 business days and that I would have to pick up my key fob during regular business hours. When I came to pick up my key fob late February of 2020, the associate I spoke with said that they hadn’t placed an order yet for my key fob. Come March 2020 before the global pandemic shut down all businesses, I still haven’t received my key fob. I am confused how there can be any miscommunication after I had purchased a new key fob. I had explained that I lost my key fob and needed to purchase a new one. I do not understand how the key fob wasn’t immediately ordered once I had paid for it. And I do not understand why management blamed me for their mistake. I have never heard of business that blatantly required their customer to place an order for a product/service that they already requested and paid for. My time is very valuable, and for that reason I chose Shapes for the 24/7 convenience. That being said it was very hard for me to make arrangements in my schedule to visit Shapes during regular working hours AND I am frustrated to have not receive the product and services your establishment offers. In addition to that I had made 3 visits and numerous phone calls, and despite that management has made no actions to resolve, compensate, or even provide services that I had paid for. It is now 2021 and the problem still has not been resolved. I should be compensated for my wasted time, efforts, money, membership inactivity and travel accommodation for the inconvenience I endured and dealing poor customer service and incompetent management at your McPhillips facility.
Great staff and positive atmosphere to get a nice workout.
Only reason for 1 star is the staff. They should give some more training to their staff that how to deal with customers. Some of them have 0 customer skills but they have got some new machines which are good.
The sauna is hot, good times!
Great service and great staff, especially Katlyn. Very friendly and knowledgable. Been using this gym from last 4 years. Best 24 hours gym in the area
Great facility, well maintained. Staff is friendly and very helpful. Always felt welcome and appreciated. Close to where I live and 24 hour tag comes in handy . They have 4 set of every weight so you really dont have to wait. I would recommend everyone who is looking for a good environment to workout
Very good customer service. Best gym in my neighbourhood.
This is a great gym. Friendly staff, clean and a positive environment.
Amazing customer service, a woman who worked there named Martina was excellent she helped me get set up and gave me great advice on workouts and techniques! Great location.
Say yoga classes are very good however the front staff especially the manager Natalia is incredibly rude and I'm not helpful.
My Membership is almost about to end. I can say my overall experience was super "BAD". Nobody in management and staff knows about the word "professionalism". Bunch of Illiterates working there together, god knows how they are running that place. If I have to share my Experience with Goodlife Garden city and Shapes, Ill give "8" rating to goodlife and "2" to shapes. People, do not waste your money there. Go to "Goodlife Fitness". Way better service , management, and plans. I am going there and telling my 6 buddies to join there after their membership ends here.
Best place to gain stamina and build up the muscles too
Awful customer service, popular machines often out of service for days at a time.
I like everything in shapes
It was great. From the first day (orientation) all the way to the training sessions with the personal trainer, the experience has been nothing but pleasing. Everyone has been accommodating and helpful in explaining/answering queries. The gym is clean and well maintained too.
Very polite staff’s and these gym is not crowded specially in the morning that’s one thing i like going here :)will definitely recomend these to my friend/relatives!!
Best place for the fitness freaks
Great facility and very friendly and helpful staff!
Poor members service
I love their Hot Yoga studio, it is spacious and really hot. They have great variety of classes. Parking is not as crowded than at some other locations.
Tina Was so unprofessional and very rude…. she don’t know how to talk with customer service
Very bad experience. No sense of talk with the Coustmer. I am going out of canada. I have to freeze my membership. I am charged for it. I am asking nobody tell me about this when i am joining. I got a reply now we are telling u sorry for that. Very bad customer experience in my life. I am not recommend anyone to join this. They bond for a year without any cancellation. U have to paid all amount of a year for cancel u memeber ship. ???????????? They just need money only not a good Coustmer experience.
Been a member for a very long time, thoroughly enjoy my time here!!
The gym is nice and clean, and has a wide variety of machines to choose from. It's got a quiet and calm atmosphere, and the front desk staff is very kind and helpful!
Always was a member of shapes since day 1. Coming back from another province Madelaine helped me get all set up again with shapes seamlessly. She was thorough and has a great attitude. Im Looking forward again to a lot of reps and sets in my future here and having great staff helping keeping our gyms open!
Poor management with no sense of customer service. They ask people to write good reviews by offering them free gym bags but in actual their management has no sense of customer service. I guess it wouldn't be appropriate to name a person but their receptionist was so helpful and being nice when you walk in asking for membership but when it comes to cancellation, email 100 times but she would not care about cancellation requests instead pushing you to pay for two years when you didn't even used gym for more than 15 days. She tells me pay for year then you would be out of contract instead they charged me till date though we did not use gym for more than 15 days since I signed up. Worst service and over smart staff that is just trying to rip customer's pocket.
Group Power Saturday mornings with Roxy are an amazing way to start my weekend. Love it. As well as Power on Tuesdays with Brenda are so worth going too. Both are amazing instructors and coaches ! Highly recommend
great variety of equipments, clean shower and nice/helpful staff!!
Great facility, incredibly terrible staff and customer service. Since the key fobs for late night access came out, they've been harassing my girlfriend and I to buy one. Even going as far as suspending my girlfriend's gym access UNTIL she buys one, because they are supplying an empty claim that she used the facilities after hours. She definitely did not, and when she asked them to supply security camera footage, they were at a loss for any proof. Don't fall for their scare tactics. They are just trying to push the sales of their key fobs.
Had an incident with the manager here before.never recieved a new lock but the other workers are great and always friendly. Good facility awful Service!!
Brutal customer service.. Charged me three times after I had to mail in a letter to end my membership. Switched to Goodlife, better in every way.
Great place and staff, only downside some of the members are careless 3 flipping urinals and there's piss all other the toilet stall every morning
My husband and I moved out to the country. We sent Shapes a registered letter to cancel both our memberships. A girl by the name of Tina said we owed no money via email. A few months later she emailed my husband said we owed money and my membership went ro collections. A real joke and a scam this company is terrible and the better business bureau should look into how they take advantage of customers.
If I could give this gym no stars I would. Hired a personal trainer to only have him talk about his recent trip to Toronto and not provide any training whatsoever. Tried talking to someone about it and nothing was done. Do NOT go to this gym.
Being renovated right now but still a great place to have a gym membership. It's of gym equipment to use
Great facilities , really liked this gym $$$$,੬੬੬੬ Need to spend two three hours daily !!!!!!
Good gym, terrible policies. Good luck cancelling a membership. I was charged a payment after the code red lockdown began???? Hurry up and reinstate 24 hrs, so I can workout in early morning. Edit... Open 24/7 once again! Way better as there are far fewer people in the gym at this time (3 a.m.). Staff reached out to me about some issues I have with this place, so I appreciate that they still take the time to address issues and try to resolve them, will give 5 stars for putting in the effort, thanks!
Very old equipment at Shapes McPhilip. It is extremely frustrating when you are pumped up and all you do is to try to adjust the seats of a machine because it is stuck. There is only one straight bar in the whole gym. I used to be at Pembina branch before and it had way better equipment than McPhilip. I wish they change the equipment and bring some modern equipment. Else, I'll consider changing my gym to Goodlife Fitness
Just started coming here a week ago, great services
Great power classes! Very welcoming group members and instructor. First time in my life getting up at 5am to exercise and this group is really motivating. Gym staff is helpful and cheerful and the locker rooms are clean. Good experience.
Service was brutal. Walked in no one wanted to help me out. When they did come over I felt like I was bothering them. Ended up going to Goodlife to work out. I would recommend the goodlife on leila and mcphillips
Everyone that works there is great however, Amanda ruined my experience there. Supposedly members were supposed to reactivate there key fobs with the new mandates in place. No email or phone call explaining this. She, tells me this like its common sense and openly communicates that she is “grumpy” because she is still here even after being done her shift at xxhours and that I should be greatful that she was still there. I work in customer service and would never verbalize how unhappy I am to a guest at my workplace. She also spoke to me like I was a child which I did not appreciate.
Just started coming here recently, and I can say I've been enjoying it a lot! Good variety of machines and nice atmosphere.
Very efficient handling due to the covid situation
Super Unprofessional Service by one of the staff in this location Don’t know how to talk
Everything well arranged and managed, but have to provide one wellness station like in the superstore. It will be helpful for those who concentrate in cardio exercise.
I will definately recommend to everyone to join shapes. They are great????
Natalia the general manager is a total dynamo, great facilities, best value!
I don’t know why i am giving rate one To one of the Staff member, because she don’t know how to talk with the customers and on the top of that, she talks very unprofessionally… My only to cancel my membership because of my charges, and my membership contract only sign for 3 months.
I like it, I really like how there are classes you could join if your not sure what to do. I also think hot yoga is pretty neat too
Great staff members. New equipments with very nice environment. I really enjoyed while work out here.
Key fob working now. Great ambience to workout
Good experience
Awesome gym. Equipment and weights are more than enough. Staff is polite and very helpful.
Superb staff
Great employees and trainers. Environment is clean and machines are well maintained.
Its very nice gym. Im member from long time. All equipments are clean and in good working condition.
Best gym ever
Its an amazing place, I feel I can upgrade my level here????????
Organized place for workouts. Staff is very nice
Very friendly and clean gym. Enough space and great staff. Really like to be here, one of the best in town. Great to be part of shapes.
Super friendly and helpful staff!
Clean facility and friendly staff! Usually not too crowded.
nice and clean gym
The convenience location, Staff members are very friendly and well provided facilities for equipments.
The facility is clean. I love the ambiance here at Shapes Mcphillips. I can highly recommend it to all my friends.
The gym is always clean compared to the other Shapes I went and I have met so many nice people and nice employees mostly the cleaners are the nices people I met so far.
I really enjoy coming here, because of the friendly and helpful staff and lovely enviorment; along with the options of classes and workout machines provided.
Shapes Mcphillips is a great place to work out. Lovely staff and a great environment to be in.
Very clean environment to workout. Washroom is clean and locker room is well kept. I always see a maintenance worker cleaning the locker room/washroom, changing the small towel you wipe the equipments with and overall clean the gym. Equipments are also well kept and they have lots. I didn't feel that i had to wait for a machine/equipment while working out. There are also a number of classes which is part of your membership. There's a small premium for other 3 special class but i think it's still cheap compared to other gym. Receptionists are amazing and very friendly. We went there on a Sunday and Shubh was more than welcoming and answered our questions even though her shift was already done :) The other receptionist gives you a big smile when you come in as well. Overall, I am having a great experience working out at Shapes-Mcphillips.
Clean facility !!! Newly redone washrooms and friendly staff!! Highly recommended
Great facilities, friendly staff, 24 hour access
I had the worst experience with shapes, save your money and use a quality facility. I had a membership for a year and they made cancelling such an issue. I haven't been able to use the gym for months because I moved out of the province 4 months before my membership year was over (there are no shapes in Ontario). I had been speaking to the person who sold me my membership and head office in Winnipeg months before I even moved to make sure I could cancel it properly and now that the year is over they are still charging me saying the cancellation didn't go through. I had no one tell me how to cancel or put the cancellation in for me. They are so dumb. Refusing a refund and still trying to charge. On top of that when I first made the membership, they wouldn't give me a key fob (that I paid for) for weeks so I couldn't use the gym since I could only work out in the evening at the time. Oh yeah and also the chest press at McPhillips women's section was squeaking for months.. so loud you couldn't use it, and I mentioned it to the girls at the front a few times. Seriously, if you're thinking about signing up, just go with GoodLife or something else instead.
an amazing gym with good machines
DON’T SUBSCRIBE you wont be able to cancel. Called them to cancel my membership, staff is very rude and still charging me. I was asked to callback back after 15 days and still being charged for services which I am not using. Which doesn’t seem fair.
This is by far my favourite gym, I love that they have a womens only side. I don't find it intimidating to come to the gym anymore. The staff are also so welcoming and nice.
Been a member here for years and years and I absolutely love it!! Shapes is a wonderful community and the staff are great.
Fantastic location! Friendly/helpful staff, clean and a good variety of equipment! Always a pleasant experience when I'm working out here!
Best gym in the area, quality staff and beautiful renovation!
One of the cleanest gyms I’ve been to and friendly staff!
Worst place to get a customer service. Most equipments are always out of order and night staff are rude as hell and will treat you like a fraud who did not paid for gym.
The staff member was not very helpful upon signing up. I did not receive any orientation and had to find everything on my own.
Great place, you don’t feel cramped and congested. Clean facility
Love it! whos ever said hot yoga is a women's activity is really missing out
Dump
Been at Shapes for a few years now, best decision ever to switch gyms!!
just great
The first moment I entered McPhillips Shapes, Holly was there to greet and guide me. She was friendly, kind, knowledgeable and very accommodating. Holly introduced to me to Personal Trainor Gary; Gary was very professional, knowledgeable, encouraging and immediately started my new journey at Shapes. I have had two recent sessions at Shapes and am very pleased at my decision to join Shapes. Regards Vicky Hildebrand
Great gym with plenty of weights, machines, and cardio equipment to keep you occupied. Also very clean and well maintained. Staff is very friendly.
I've been coming to this gym since it opened. Has a good selection of cardio equipment, free weights and machines. Sauna is usually nice and warm. I have never used the shower so I can't comment on that. The locker room floor could be a little bit cleaner...... Quite a bit of hair. It's nice having 24/7 access with the fob.
the best fitness center ever!!! everything is there in their facility. i always look forward going in the gym because of the positivity of the place!!
Open 24/7
Great facility and nice to be back. It's wonderful that they have the women's side available 24/7.. Also, Natalia has been very helpful right when we signed up!
To begin with Such a great facility and very powerful classes shapes has got, but they really suck when it comes to customer service!!! If you are looking for a gym with some professionalism and good customer servicing, i would definitely not recommend shapes!! Especially at the Mcphilips location, i was treated so very bad by this consultant named "Kianna" just because i signed up at other location!!! I mean what difference does it make for shapes if I sign up from a different branch!! At the end of the day they get my money!! I purposely signed up for a membership which gives me access to all locations and all the classes, and you guys make sure to charge me more for additional locations but don't want to respect me!?!?!?!? How fair is that!?!?!?!? This consultant Kianna has been treating me very bad since my very first visit to shapes!! When i decided to join after my free trail, i purposefully wen to other location to join as i did not want to deal with her at all, now every single time i go to work out at the Mcphilips location, she threatens me and keeps taunting me for joining from other location!?!?!?!? when i asked her about my keyfob she replied "well, you should have got it done from the location you signed up at" and did not even care to check if my keyfob was working for me!!! for which they made me pay $20. Secondly she purposely didn't let me go to the yoga class, considering the fact that i was 10 seconds late to the person who checked in right before me!! That member was given a yoga pass, but not me!!!! which again you guys make me pay extra for!! I'am fed up with her bad treatment and never wanting to go to shapes anymore, can you guys please cancel my membership so i can go to other gyms who would treat me with some respect and let me use the facility that i'am paying for.
Good Equipment, Clean gym, also like how Shapes is 24/7 Access
Great place to work out! Friendly staffs.
Dirtiest change rooms and showers ever. It's not hard to walk though the change rooms once an hour and sweep it clean. People walk in with outdoor shoes on, inadequate front area to remove your shoes, they can't even get a second chair in there to have a seat.
(Translated) Excellent attention (Original) Excelente atención
Really clean and nice place for a gym.
It's sucks very rude staff....
Clean, variety of equipment, great staff
Convenient locations. Nice locker room.
The gym is good but the staff is always rude to its customers. My experience is not so good with the staff so far.
i ll post more when i b there so far seems good the receptionist thania i m sorry if i misspelled is really good in greeting people.
clean gym, always go here with my friends. Overall great gym!
Very clean facility...
I am really impressed with Shapes mcphillips. The staff is friendly. The facility is clean. The staff enforce the (no outdoor shoes) policy. You have a choice to work out in the co-ed or women's area. The membership is very affordable. I would reccomend this gym to my friends and family.
I had a really good experience with shapes, the atmosphere felt very friendly and there was a good choice of machines/ equipment.
Great and friendly staff; and amazing facilities.
Great gym!!!
Fun place to work out at, lots of hot dudes
I love the group fitness classes they offer at this location. The instructors always push you and make sure you get the most out of the hour you spend with them.
Good stuff
Great Gym! Very nice changing rooms and it's always clean!! Love it!!
Facility is awesome. All you need is you, yourself and the work you put in!!???????? Newly renovated locker for men? Come check it out-- verrryyyy nice!
The staff is super friendly, especially the personal trainers. Everything is clean and they have a lot of modern equipment. 5/5 would recommend ;)
Great gym. Tanning is super affordable.
good yoga instructors, nice facility, brand new legs machine on the womens side
the staff is very friendly. and the daycare service is wonderful. they actually feed my baby her premade bottles and give you a little report how the kids where during their time there. and even go so far to ask you how youre workout was. very clean establishment. and huge lockers in the locker/change room and a massive sauna that is actually hot. and plenty of hot water for showering.
Filthy
the best
Great atmosphere, very friendly staff great experience so far.
Great gym, best one I have ever been too! Love the 6:00 am Ride class best way to start the day!
Love it, tons of machines and pretty spacious.
love coming in to do the hot yoga classes, and use the equipment always clean and friendly helpful staff!
Very Friendly Staff,very Clean Facility,Awesome gym,i highly recommend!!!
They bests
Couldn't put 0 stars.. The way members are treated is horrible. There shouldn't be so many complaints for a place that should be helping people live better. The staff that's hired is also trash. Customer service is poor. Maybe those jobs need more screening than just liking fitness. Maybe how to actually talk to people... The way the general manager handles sensitive cases is basically "Karen vibes".
Terrible experience the man who works at the night don’t know how to talk he is so unprofessional , don’t know how to talk to the customers rather than that everything is good hopefully you guys takes a action.
Nice place
Great facility! Tons of room and awesome machines! Natalia is a superstar!
Clean Postive vibes Open 24/7 Nice staffs Big facilities
I've been to a lot of gyms in my life time and I would definitely recommend shapes as the top contender! The staff always makes you feel welcomed, the gym is always super clean. No other gym can compare! Thank you Shapes for everything you do to make my time here efficient and welcoming!
Normally my review would be much higher but twice now (as I'm typing this) there was no one here to open the gym for the morning workout. Yesterday they were twenty minutes late (with a odd 30 people waiting in line) and we re doing it all over again now. What's going on guys? Your better than this. Other wise, great place. Doing the best they can so we can workout. When it's open.
great place to come and workout, friendly staff and friendly people. always clean and its 24/7 so it works around my schedule
If i could give less than 1 star i would. If you are looking for a gym membership in Winnipeg STAY CLEAR from shapes. You will save yourself so much hassle going to GOODLIFE or really ANY other gym then this poorly managed place. This is coming from a guy who's been a shapes member for over 8 years. The staff working at the facility are decent but its the upper management of this place that is a huge joke. Shapes management will try to stick you with paying for THEIR own mistakes. if you try to reach out to them so they could fix their mistakes it takes WEEKS for them to get back to you. Save yourself the TIME & MONEY and go somewhere else.
Amanda was super friendly! She made the decision super easy to join shapes
Kind service and I love that there are many options for a work out routine, it’s great to switch things up time to time.
It's a great gym and one can go anytime according his/her schedule. It has very good staff.
This place is rip-off. Costumer service make no sense. I guess money is everything than being decent and professional receptionist is not an option. I will not even explain my experience because is not worth it. In this kind of business the bad reviews outweigh the good reviews. why? because one consumer/client bad experience will surely damage one reputation, if unsatisfied costumer spread this truth...... And that my friend is irreversible.
Great facility but can get very busy. Pick your times . Staff knowledge can be patchy
Since covid, I have to freeze our membership a few times for they keep charging you without letting you know by at least sending you an email just like other gyms when they reopen. We have to come to freeze it(but you got charged already and the freeze only takes effect on the next billing cycle) And when they closed down and then reopen again they charge you full again. So if the closing down happens a hunderd times you have to come back a 100x too to freeze your membership. I think you have to understand too that some people are still not comfortable going back to the gym even if you reopen. I also asked to cancel our membership since it supposed to end last January, but I was told that it has been extended because you have to close down. But definitely it's not our fault that covid happens why we have to suffer for it, we all struggle because of this. I really wish you could be more lenient with your policies.
I started going to Shapes on a free week pass and soon after that week I was hooked! I have been going to Shapes for over a year now and I always enjoy my time spent there!
excellent gym and great staff, very friendly
10/10 recommend to anyone of all ages!!
One of the cleanest gyms I've joined. Every time I've been here, I've also seen cleaners working. The women's side is usually not too busy. Haven't checked out the men's side yet. Has "child care", but wish the hours were more flexible. Nice clean change rooms, lots of equipment, and a large space. I would recommend this gym Staff are friendly and helpful. I do wish they had a bigger selection of weight machines on the women's side
The day staff was good but i want report that the person standing at night is totally disrespectful guy he does not know how to talk or behave with someone He told my partner standing there are you a horse like I don’t understand how can someone with such a responsibility behave like that. This was not first time. I would suggest to someone better who can behave better have reflection of shapes gym staff. The daytime staff is good though find someone like that
Great . Fantastic. Fabulous,very convenience for me to workout ,I been at your gym for over 10 years, For me , so far so good. Also I think your Staff are doing a good job.....
I have been training at shapes facilities for over ten years. The facilities are always clean, which makes the experience at Shapes enjoyable. The 24 hour access (with key FOB) provides an opportunity to get is a workout at my convenience, at anytime. Overall, a great gym to workout at to achieve fitness goals.
I'm new at fitness, so the women's side makes it less intimidating. 100% recommend
I enjoy coming to this gym. Staff friendly, machines nice, nice hot yoga, always open.
I have been a member for a long time, and I enjoy the escape to the classes and the sauna. Plus the girls at the front always make you feel welcomed and accountable for your workouts. The cleaning lady has a great laugh, and a great spirit. I always recommend Shapes to friends
it was my first day at shapes. i just go and check about membership fee but their staff is very rude. Amenda her name is very rude. she dont know how to deal with customer. i didnt get membership and i never recommend anyone to join shapes. I think they have problem with only punjabi community. They should atleast polite with customers.
Attempted to use a 5 day trial and was turned down since i am not a Winnipeg resident. Was told i could buy a membership or pay a 10$ drop in. Walked down the street to goodlife and was offered a 7 day free trial. Avoid shapes.
Awesome facility and welcoming staff! Would definitely recommend to others 10/10
Gym was really nice but one of the staff need training that how to talk with the customers
Great gym. Pretty awesome staff, and the equipment is on point!
I really enjoy the hot yoga classes! the instructors are wonderful
Signed up allmost 5 years ago for a membership wasn’t told that in order to cancel i would have to write there head office and tell them why I wanna cancel. I was falsely told I could cancel anytime which was false. And top it off they kept trying to pull money out of my account to we’re I would get a NSF and get charged by the bank. I wouldn’t recommend this gym to my worst enemy there full of sh..t and they falsely tell you you can cancel any time which is also a lie so yea this gym would get a zero from me not worth the hassle don’t believe anything there staff say.
Great!!!!
Great working enviorment , and excellent staff.
July 26, 2021 Update: I have no problem following rules, but it never means tolerate being treated rudely. I have mentioned that during my 2nd visit to the gym Amanda kicked my son and me out at 12pm right after she saw me, and I have booked until 12:30pm. She said I was not booked. But I have booked one day before with Holly (due to the APP had problems on Shape's end I was told to call to book when I tried to book on the APP), and my booking was confirmed. She didn't ask Holly or listened to my explanation; she said, "stay here in the front, don't go anywhere" then she went straight to the child care room and took my son out. After Holly came back and confirmed I was booked, Amanda pretended nothing had happened. After wasted 25 of my time, all I got was, "you have only 5 minutes left anyway." I give 3 stars instead of 1 only because of the other helpful staff, and the place is clean. I will update depend on future visits. July 21, 2021: Some members are allowed to come in with outdoor shoes and some are not allowed. There's discrimination going on at this location. Front desk Amanda had been making up reasons and trying to kick me out almost every time she saw me. When I explain and confront with her, she pretends nothing happened. Today Amanda was FOLLOWING ME in the TOILET and told me, "YOU HAVE ONE MINUTE TO GO PEE." When I started washing my hand, she FOLLOWED again AND WAS WATCHING ME and said, "TIME'S UP GET OUT NOW." This is absolutely DISRESPECTFUL, RUDE AND OFFENSIVE. You got told how long you can pee and be watched in the toilet? How comfortable is that? I deserve a service better than this. If this issue remains unsolved, I need to CANCEL MY MEMBERSHIP IMMEDIATELY. I will only pay for a gym that treats me with respect. July 23, 2021 Update: The manager told me she had talked to Amanda. I'll see if there's any change in my future visit. The reason I didn't give zero star is for the other helpful staff who work there. However, it only takes one employee to damage the customer's experience & the business's reputation.
I had good experience with Amanda and Simran choosing the membership.
Going there since 2011????Absolutely perfect place for workout! Open 24/7 holiday speacial hours, excellent folks at front desk with great customer service And well equipped with latest workout needs!!
Leaving shapes is next to impossible. I've been a member for 3 years and off of contract for 2. I asked to put in my 30 days 3 months ago and I am still being charged. After talking to many people, they had told me that I never signed a 30 day release form. Although, I was never asked to sign one when I told them I'm moving out of the city and need to put in my 30 days. Now shapes is claiming I owe them $100 plus $60 for my "30 days". I do not understand why I need to pay when this was a staffs error.
Great place to work out, front desk staff super helpful and polite
They increased their prices, I paid for personal training and they took the money out biweekly with my membership. When I asked to pay off lump sums they never gave me an updated balance, the staff there are so uninformed and clueless that when I asked to pay off the remaining balance they quoted me the original amount of the personal training multiple times and after i made them aware of the lump sum payments and biweekly payments, they said they'd have someone call me to give me an update. Weeks later I received no phonecall so I phoned and they finally told me I overpaid. Escalated it to head office and have now been waiting six months for "management to get back to me as they are quite busy". Cancelled my membership ASAP as I would recommend everyone else should do so. Shapes is quick to take money but drags their feet to give it back. Update: Found out the representatives downtown I believe it was Madison and Holly were claiming to be management and Holly was leveraging my money to change my review. She said if I didn't revise my review they wouldn't send me my money which is completely unprofessional. It's only when I mentioned going to the better business services or CBC is when the General Manager contacted me. She was very polite and helpful and was able to courier a cheque within a couple of hours. I've been working in customer service for many years now and problems like this should have been solved at first point of contact but it seems the representatives lack integrity and initiative. The representatives are destroying this business. They asked me to revise my review, here it is.
BEST GYM EVER! NO ONE CAN COMPARE!!
I have a membership in almost every gym in the city, and quite frankly; this is probably the fartest one from where I live, but I must say I'm always made feel missed and welcomed when I show up. Its worth the drive everytime! The equipments is very well maintained; they're always bringing new machines, new classes and the women's side is never too crowded, so you can always count on a great workout! Definitely recommend!
great service
Cool spacious gym
Very poor communication and very rude , specially Amanda, I was a family membership, from 2016 and when COVID-19 started, we enable to Starr’s again and it’s common you guys have record , who is coming to gym and they took 3 months payments and we emailed, but they still took, when I called to Amanda to cancel our membership, she said we have to give one month notice and we did and after they took two payments, it is rediculus, they don’t realize how we make money, and they took $400 , sorry to I never recommend shapes to anybody
Locker room and showers nice and clean. Friendly staff.
Good environtment to workout!
Very friendly staff(Holly,Ashley, Diane, Romeo) very cleanliness!
huge gym, great atmosphere, front desk staff always friendly and super polite
The Shapes McPhillips location is convenient as it is relatively close to my residence so I would rate the accessibility as high. I have also invested in an entrance door fob that grants me access 24/7 which is a plus during the holidays or when I work late shifts. There are a large variety of fitness equipment that are regularly maintained. I find the facility to be very clean as the cleaning staff are properly utilized. I am very impressed with the "Queenax" addition. I participate in the "functional Circuit training" class and find the charged atmosphere to be very energetic and motivational. I consider the Personal Trainers to be very knowledgeable and attentive to my needs. Overall, Shapes is a well reputable fitness facility which provide fantastic services that cater to a wide array of health and fitness needs. I have and will continue to recommend Shapes.
I love this gym! especially going to the group fitness classes, they keep me motivated and wanting to come back for more!
Nice facility, locker area new and clean, friendly staff
Hi.i have membership from last 4 yrs..m fully setisfied.bt i think they need massage chairs also..fit 4 less they have and also cheap membership..bt i like to go shapes..thanks
Very nice facility for free weights, machines, treadmills and fitness classes. Lots of good instructors.
Love the group fitness class, great workouts
Terrible terrible customer service. Team is always rude specially the guys. They think they are the owners of the place and people come in for free to take their attitude always! Bunch of bad experiences and I have been letting it go. 3 stars are only for hours and equipment.. If it was about the team.. It will be ZERO stars! The guy today 11pm August 12th.. Always rude like he doeant know customer service or how to respect others or atleast be polite. No one is denying the rules or policies but you need to learn to talk to people.
huge gym, great variety of equipment and welcoming staff at the front desk!
I love their program. Clean and well maintained environment. I like that they have hot yoga. I feel like this is a nice to have especially winter season. The staff are accomodating and friendly.
A nice place to workout..everything in one place...highly reccommended!!!
love the gym and the classes their super fun!
front desk staff is always so friendly
great gym
Friendly staff and machines are always clean and ready to use!
Worst experience ever. I have been paying for membership for more than a year and requested like 10 times to cancel it since I never used it more than a month but they would always come up with something . Highly disappointed with their management. They ask customers to write good review as in return they would be treated with shapes bag. I have membership from Jan 2017 and requested numerous times to cancel it but they would always bring up something with their rules and been ripping customers pocket as I have paying from then till now for something that I haven’t used for more than a month ever since I signed up. Poor management with no sense of customer service.
Nice and clean atmosphere for workout.
great gym
I love the 24/7 access
Just doing this for a tshirt..
Working out at shapes since 2011 and its the best gym in the city, The staff is really friendly.
Customer service sucks !!!!!
"Great facilities, clean, friendly staff, 24 hour access"
great gym!!
love this gym
Great gym! Love the option having a women's and co-ed side ! The hot yoga and classes have amazing instructors !
Awesome gym, been coming for 10+ years. Finally not as outdated. Minus 3 stars because the owner (bald white guy) is condescending towards members for "dropping weights".. wouldn't hurt to smile and be a nice guy!
hot yoga classes are amazing i love this gym and such friendly staff
I was a member here for nearly 4 years, it was a great 5 star experience in the beginning but began to decline. It became more and more apparent that the many (not all) of the staff, ESPECIALLY the manager do not care about their patrons. I have been spoken to extremely rudely, illegally asked for a doctors note pertaining to a medical condition, and then kicked out of the gym. I was made to feel humiliated on the gym floor infront of other members by the manager (who wasn't even on duty at the time). I cannot stress this enough, if you want a good quality gym that cares about its members, this is not the place for you.
I’ve decided to take my time and make a review from the kind of service I’ve experienced through a phone call earlier today. I’ve been with Shapes probably about 2 years now and I didn’t have any concerns about their customer service but today I called them because I have decided to not renew my membership anymore due to personal reasons. I asked the lady who was working at the time if she’s able to help me out and asked what are the steps that’s needed in order for me to end my membership. She then told me that I need to come in to sign a document for her to finalize it. I told her that I wasn’t able to come in because I just had a wrist surgery on my right hand and asked her if she’s able to scan a copy and send it through email in that way I’m able to sign it electronically. She told me that she’s not able to do that for me and told me that I can try using my “left hand” I was surprised by the abrupt comment of hers and asked her that if I’m able to get someone on behalf of me to sign it. She then said that I can try it but she doubt that’s it’s going to be approved, I tried to give her a lot ideas but clearly she’s shutting me down so the last resort that I could think of was to get the phone number of the management but then again she refused to and said that the main office is closed and they’re working from home and have limited access. Not unless I go there and sign they won’t let me end my membership until next year. I might not understand fully where the lady is coming from but she could’ve provided extra help for me.
My family and i had to switch from a different gym, and wasnt sure how we were going to like shapes. We love it and the daycare is awesome for our little ones. Jamena who works the daycare is wonderful both our children love her !!
So I finished paying my memebership in September (which was $330) and apparently they've still been charging me. When I went in to pay it I made sure to tell the lady (who was extremely rude might I add) that I wanted to pay everything off, even the next 3 payments I was supposed to just so I wouldn't have to come back. I emailed them two days ago asking for my payment recipts for the year which they sent me and it didn't have anything down about me paying the $330 at all. It also showed on my payment reciept that they tried to charge me 3 more bi weekly payments of $15 and I have an NSF fee of $25 on top of that because I didn't pay those 3 payments that I wasn't supposed to pay in the first place. Got an email yesterday saying I owed them $100 still, even though I have the receipt showing I've paid everything back. Tried to email them about it with proof of my payment but I haven't gotten anything back after a day. Extremely unprofessional. Go somewhere that actually deserves it, like GoodLife.
I felt really good. I had all my questions and concerns taken care of.
Great place to be. Staff is friendly, and equipment is great!
Sauna is a good place to relax!
First time and staff are so friendly. Thalia showed me around and explained everything to me! She had a good knowledge and was very welcoming! Happy to be coming to this gym.
A+
Very satisfied with this facility. Great location, great equipment & friendly staff.
I think Shapes has very clean equipment and very friendly staff, would 10/10 recommend!!!!!!
I've been a member for over 10 years and have had a great rate honored. I like that I can go to any Shapes gym in the city under the standard memebership. Most recently the gym has I'm a new system for 24 hour use. Machines are kept in working order, the staff are always friendly. I've never had a problem working out on the co-ed side, though all locations have a women's side- and a couple location are women only!
Very Bad experience in these days. I am a member of this gym from almost last 3 years. Now they hired new staff and they don't have any training how to greet members, and even though they don't want to listen problems of members. And top of that there is a change in behavior of manager as well, I don't know she was very nice in the past, but now she has more experience and power and there is major change in her behavior as well and also discrimination is going on. There is excuse for some members they can come inside with shoes, but for some of them they don't allow them. If its happened continuously then I think we have to be noticed to public and we will use electronic media and paper media as well and also try to approach human rights as if its required. So I want to notice to higher authorities to take care of that. Bad behavior is not tolerated at any cost.
Been coming here since I was little, noting bad to say about this gym- staff are super friendly always willing to give you a hand. Me and my friends come here and get a great workout in, equipment is always up to good standards!!!!
Great place to come workout with some buddies and get a good workout in!
would recommend this gym to anyone. The Fitness classes are such a great workout they have classes for everyone-cycling class, strength training, even Zumba!
I love the barre classes and hot yoga!!
Great Facility! Tons of machines and space to work out!
Staff is very friendly, gym is always clean!!
I've been a member of shapes for a really long time now! I've tried all locations out, Mcphillips is by far the best one- Staff is always super friendly towards me, the gym is clean and equipment and classes are always great! would recommend to all my friends and family!
Awesom facilty. Where fat is burned and pride is earned.????????
Good environment here, good equipment. Overall pretty good. Mainly just doing for a bag.????
Disappointed with the mask policy. Seems like hotspot center for covid is just around the reception area as soon as you leave that area you no longer have to wear mask what sort of policy is that ..i mean either just implement it completely or remove it completely..
Nice and relaxed atmosphere at this particular gym, everything is nice and clean, and the staff at the front desk is always nice to talk to!
Has anyone noticed that Christina’s only job is to comment on the ratings of all shapes locations? I have emailed her as suggested multilple times, she has been extremely unhelpful. Google shapes is a scam. You will be amazed. Don’t sign up before checking out that site. Unbelievable and very sad. Not to mention straight up dirty.
It's really nice that they've got a secluded side for the women's area, allows me to work out comfortably and without feeling self-conscious since I'm not very fitness oriented. The front desk staff here is always nice and welcoming!
great variety of weights!!
Shapes is great! I love how everyone treats eachother like a family. The instructors are great, the front desk staff are amazing towards ever member! I recommend this gym to anyone who is willing to have an exciting time while getting a great workout in too!
LOVE THIS GYM SO MUCH !!! All staff members are so nice and friendly!!!
Been going to shapes for about a year now, I love it! Such a clean environment and friendly staff. Wouldn’t choose any other gym!
Normally I go to the Pembina location, but I found the McPhillips location to be very welcoming. I will be back and recommending.
Ive been a shapes member for over a year and so far I am loving it. The 24 hour access (even on holidays) the different workout machines/weights some alittle outdated but it will do....the new queenex area is a plus and the different group fitness classes are awesome and staff is very friendly!
There is day care at this facility, which makes it much easier for new moms to stay in shape, the classes are great, the front desk staff is very helpful. I really like it here.
Shapes Mcphillips has great front desk staff, always has a smile on their faces and willing to help you out! Makes it a great environment to walk into and be around!
Huge gym with very professional staff and pretty decent equipments
Great location, friendly and caring staff, well experienced trainers, clean equipment
Huge gym , friendly staff
I recently joined Shapes and I've regreted it since day 1. The staff are beyond rude and unhelpful. If you wish to be ripped off and be treated poorly then this is the gym for you
great facility-recommend to all my friends!
The staff here is very nice and accommodating, and the gym itself is very tidy and clean.
Great atmosphere, polite front desk staff.
Don’t do it! Crazy unprofessional
On McPhillips they not telling you the right information , front desk not professional. I told them to cancel my commitment after a year, but they not .
recommend this gym to anyone! great facility, people, staff and can’t forget about great equipment too!
Fantastic gym. Ali at customer service is so knowledgeable about all of the gym’s services and any other questions I have! Very kind! This customer service makes Shapes a more comfortable atmosphere for first time gym goers!
EDIT:THE BELOW POST WAS SOLICITED, shapes bribes it members to post good reviews to get a gym bag, they lie and cheat, when you cancel they don't process it and forget to give you the paperwork needed. DO NOT JOIN UNLESS YOU HAVE NO OTHER OPTIONS, horrible place to deal with. Very clean gym, friendly staff, and a bright atmosphere. Great gym to work out in
it’s a big gym with a great variety of equipment. Friendly staff as well
I love the fitness classes and yoga, very relaxing. The instructors really make you work hard towards your goals, recommend shapes to everyone!
Had great experience at shapes on McPhillips
