Great gym! Great instructors! Great Management! Great environment! Great Location! Great facilities! Such a safe and comfortable environement. Has a wide range of equiptment; different types of classes that you can enjoy; personal trainers for people who want a personalised workout; group sessions or a variety of classes for those who are more comfortable in a group setting. Classes range from cardio to core to strength training to Zumba to pilates to meditation - all included in your membership. No need to go elsewhere and spend a fortune on classes outside of Fernwood gym. The gym also offers you the option to have a 24/7hr fob key - which is so convenient for everyone (you can go to the gym whenever you feel like - night or day). The gym also has exceptional facilities. Fernwood Sydenham has very clean showers and toilets. They also offer lockers if you need to store away any personal items. They also have a Sauna Fernwood Sydenham is the perfect place for any woman whose looking to start their fitness journey. The staff members and management are very friendly and very motivating and are always available for anything that you need. The gym also provides nutrition advice to any member that is interested. Fernwood Sydenham also has many challenges and activities that they host that can be both fun a motivating. Whether you're looking for a gym that can help you lose body fat; strengthen your muscles; start a new hobby or classes; working on a healthy diet or even just meeting new people Fernwood Sydenham's the place to be

I have never been confronted with the level of rudeness as I have when dealing with this facility, My wife was a member of this gym and quickly went upstairs with our toddler to put a towel on a bike before she took him to the day care next door. One of the staff literally screamed at her from across the gym, causing a scene about him being there. I can appreciate that a place has rules, but they should maintain a level of respect and human decency when dealing with members and addressing issues, and not cause a scene in front of a child. When I called to let management know about this the manager showed no empathy or understanding regarding my issue, and actually turned on me excusing the staff members behaviour, and doubling down on her position telling me to tell my wife to "refrain from doing it again"

  • Stephanie Jane

The customer service at this club is abysmal. Whenever I needed something changed or adjusted they made things difficult or didn’t give me the full information. They refused to give me a refund when I paid for a 20 pack of childcare sessions for over the holiday period. (Dec-Jan) They did not make me aware that for a large portion of that time the childcare would shut down so I wasn’t able to use it during that time. I then had some personal circumstances come up where I wasn’t able to use the gym for the year following so the sessions expired and they just took the money. I have now cancelled my membership, which they made difficult and without correct information to help me proceed with it. Those are just a couple of the many issues I had. Would never recommend this place. Save your money.

  • Mary-Louise Calleri

Can’t say enough about this place. Pilates is my thing 3 days a week and have now been a member for over a year. When Staff greet you by your name, you know this is your other family. I have recently taken up sauna for its health benefits and enjoying it thoroughly. Only abit concerned about the cleanliness of the Sauna. Just this evening watched a member give herself a body scrub (yes in the actual Sauna) with her own home remedy. Now I know each to their own but she continuously was rubbing all over herself (which was so irritating) and then left the Sauna with pieces lemon and sugar all over the seat opposite meseriously!!!

  • Dawn Thomas

Being a larger lady, I have always been intimidated by gyms. After being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes I realised that I had to take my health seriously. I initially started doing Reformer Pilates at Fernwood, which I absolutely loved. Everyone is treated as an individual. I decided that joining Fernwood was going to be what I needed and I have not regretted it. All the ladies are so friendly and welcoming, they listen to you and tailor a program for you and encourageyou all the way. I love going to the gym in the morning then my Pilates at night.

  • Gem Stone

I love coming here to work out. I don’t feel judged or unsafe. The instructors are hard-working but understanding to everybody’s needs and capabilities. The sauna and bathroom facilities are extremely helpful to my specific situation. This a great gym to go to. Only downfall would be not enough parking spaces but that’s because of the location. If they could remove the wired gate in between building complexes, that would much more convenient for everybody’s sake. Keen to work on my summer body ☀️

  • Ada Zhao

Fernwood Sydenham is absolutely the BEST gym I have ever been a member of. All staff members are super friendly and genuinely care about women's fitness and health wellbeing. My trainer Sandy is so knowledgeable and encouraging, she cares about the form of every exercise making sure I can get the best out of each workout. I highly recommend getting PT sessions if you are working on your strength. It's only been a few months and I already feel much stronger than when I started!!!! Thanks Sandy!

  • Mirjana Jesensek

I’ve been member of the Fernwood Sydenham for over 4 years now (joined for Zumba but used/using other classes and facility). I love the friendliness of the staff. Women’s only club (love that). Big range of the free group classes. Lots of services (massage, nutrition coach, PT etc). Spacious and clean changing rooms. There is really everything you need for complete health, fitness and wellness. I love everything about them.

  • Hannah and Scott Radburn

Fernwood Sydenham is an awesome community to be a part of. With a huge selection of classes, a sauna, massage chairs, reformer beds and I appreciate the friendly, professional, knowledgeable and supportive staff. They really make it a great place to workout. I love that they offer a teen membership for 12-17 year olds so that my daughter has a safe and welcoming place to train.

  • Annie Robertson

Facilities looked awesome. Amazing kitchen/pantry access to make yourself breakfast and tea/coffee. Unfortunately I was not provided with adequate information in order to take part in my offer of a free class. Therefore a wasted hour and a half of my time on a precious day off, in travelling to and from the gym, being taken through an induction and filling in paperwork.

  • isil ulug

Fantastic setup! Great atmosphere. Mel originally signed me up and was very informative. Have been seeing Louise (PT) for the last few weeks and she is FANTASTIC!!! I don't live very close to the Sydneham gym and have other Fernwood's near me but the warm welcoming from all staff and my amazing PT sessions with Louise is irreplaceable.

  • Kotoari Ji
