Cardio-Go

I bought the 5 aerial class Groupon deal and was only able to use 2 out of the 5 classes. It was a horrible waste of time and money! Very limited in scheduling (2 beginner classes a week) and impossible to book (only 10 spots available, can only book 3 days in advance). I wanted to use the last 3 classes for regular yoga but there weren’t many classes available and most of them were during the day (while I“m at work). I wasted far too much time trying to book these classes (it was always full and waited on the wait list, only 4 spots on wait list available) and they weren’t very enjoyable in the end. I didn’t find it much of a work out. The instructor would demo the moves but didn’t provide any feed back and only would help if you looked like you were about to fall out of the harness. What is the point of a smaller class if you aren’t given more attention? Overall would not recomment. I would rate this place 0 out of 5 if I could.
If you are going here for the gym and not the classes you should know the King W location is very small. Reminds me of a very large condo gym. Definitely not something I would think is worth their rather high membership fee.

I’ve only been training here a couple of times a week for a couple of weeks so I admit I’m not an expert reviewer. However, I have to say — so far — this place hits all my sweet spots: clean, spacious change rooms; friendly, well-​behaved (mostly non-​grunty /​angry) clientele; nice range of equipment; no distracting dance beats pounding in the background. It’s a place where you can concentrate on your work and yourself. Although I haven’t done any classes or visited during «peak» after work hours, from my limited experience I’d recommend Cardio-​Go. It’s a good place.

I went to this gym because of groupon deal. I got groupon for 10 classes yoga for around 30. Definitely a good deal. The groupon takes a bit trouble to activate. I need to go to the gym first in person, then I can book classes online.
I love the aerial yoga and used all my classes towards aerial yoga.
However, I think the booking system is a bit difficult to use. I think they give away too many groupons that it became difficult to get into the class. It is either waitlist or the sign up does not open to public somehow.
There are some cases where too many students in the class and not enough swings available.
I would suggest to download the Mind Body mobile app to make the sign up and cancel a bit easier.

(review for yoga and pilates classes only)
I bought the 10-​class yoga & pilates Groupon and this has been one of my better experiences with using a deal. I did not get treated different because I was a non-​member and staff were helpful and nice. Unlike large chain gyms, I did not experience any extra costs for towels or use of facilities. Shower facilities are not large but reasonably clean and do the job. Groupon covers multi-​locations, very handy for those who work in the downtown core.
As another reviewer mentioned, the initial activation of the Groupon is a bit of a hassle as you need to go in person in advance of the class. However, after that you can sign up for classes using the online system, which is a breeze!
I had initially bought the deal to try out Aerial Yoga. I went to one Aerial classes at the King West location and decided it was not for me – it was hard to follow the instruction and the placement of the mirrors did not allow you to see the instructor while you are hanging. I wish the instructor had walked around more to help us out.
On the other hand, Melissa at the Simcoe Place location is great! Her Power Yoga and Pilates classes are always fun and a great workout. Highly recommend her classes.

I had purchased a groupon for yoga/​pilate classes, as well as boxing classes. From reading the groupon, I was required to go into the gym to activate the pass. I wanted to attend an aerial class the same day of the activation and based on the hours indicated on the site, I had called the gym right at the opening time. I had called 3 times within 30 minutes and nobody picked up. I went to the gym before the yoga class started and explained my situation… turned out the website was not updated.
I’ve been to other aerial classes at another studio, and the classes offered at Cardio go are extremely fast paced. These classes are definitely not for beginners. They are trying to cram way too many people into one space and it is definitely not safe. With that being said, this was my first class at this location, and the girl beside me fell on her head while we were flipping upside down.
However, the pilate classes offered at 200 Front St is amazing. Melissa is an amazing, funny, and ensures that all her students are doing each move correctly. I would definitely recommend going to this class.

Good enough to pull my first ever Unilocal review out of me…
From the first time I went in, I was surprisingly impressed with the location.
I went in with a very specific idea in mind, having been to many of the other gyms in town (read: extreme, then goodlife), I was looking for a straight up gym, with lots of heavy things to lift.
Brennan was a pleasure to deal with during my first meeting, and was very receptive to my unique situation with how often I would be attending. I can’t say it strongly enough that if you just voice your concerns, or what you’re looking for… there can always be a meeting point.
I am lucky in that every time I go, it is in off-​peak time, so I can’t speak for rush times. However, now after almost 2 months, I can say that I have never had to alter, change, or abort a fixed workout plan that I was doing. There may not seem like a lot of choice at first but it is a well thought out gym with all the stuff needed to do a great workout.
I also strongly appreciate the fact that it seems everyone there is just interested in getting their workout done, then leaving.
I couldn’t recommend it any stronger, and look forward to every time I step through the doors.
Well done!

(Review on their yoga classes only)
There are 4 locations in Toronto and they offer a wide range of yoga classes.
I am a big fan of aerial yoga classes offered only at this location and hatha and ashtanga yoga classes at Front St. location.
Studios are clean and well maintained.
I highly recommend CardioGo to anyone who loves practicing yoga.

Not a bad gym for a lunch hour workout. Nice change rooms and great classes at King St W and Simcoe location.
But they are super disorganized, anyone can just come in and work out (no card scanning or any control over entry), small in size.
Pushy on the personal training issue.
Worst thing is once you cancel they keep taking money out of your account. I had to cancel my account to make them stop. Not surprised as they are super disorganized, and have no actual systems linking all locations. They work on some kind of honour system where you can just walk in and claim you are from the other location.
For the money, go to a better gym.
