I am not a member but my wife is... I wanted to know if my kids were in the daycare, which they were. They told me I could not walk from the front desk to check through the window if my children were there. Andrew, the manager, explained that if I had paid for a drop-in, then I could go to the window to check if my kids are there... But because I didn't pay and I wasn't at the desk at the exact same time as my wife when she walked in... Him, nor any of his staff would help me by either walking me back to check the window or anything. This was a crazy experience. They didn't say, "hey just throw us some ID so we know who you are and go check if your kids are here... Or "what do they look like? I'll go check if they're here. Just hold tight"...
None of that. It was really bad. He was really bad. And I wouldn't go here and I really would NOT go here if you have kids

I recently started coming to Fitness World at Uptown in Victoria after being a member at Fit4Less for years. I wanted to work with a personal trainer, which is something this gym offers and was the reason I switched over. All of the staff are friendly and super knowledgeable! I have been training with Oli- we have been working together to create a workout program that helps support my back after an injury. I highly recommend training with him!
The gym itself feels inviting and has many areas to workout in, depending on what you’re looking for (stretching, free weights, classes, etc). The clientele is made up of all ages and abilities and does not feel judgy or intimidating.
If you’re looking to switch gyms, or are just starting out, I recommend giving it a try!

I’ve had a terrible experience with this gym. They never properly informed me that I needed to give 30 days’ notice to cancel, and they also automatically renewed my contract after a year without clearly telling me. When I tried to cancel, they still wanted to charge me because of this policy I was never made aware of.
This feels misleading and unfair, and it shows a complete lack of transparency with customers. A fitness club should be honest and upfront — instead, I was left frustrated and paying for something I don’t want. I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

If you’re going to take a Worx class, make sure it’s with Niv. His energy is infectious, the workouts are challenging but approachable, and he creates an environment that feels motivating and inclusive from start to finish. He’s amazing at explaining movements, offering form cues, and encouraging everyone to push themselves no matter their fitness level. Highly recommend his class to anyone looking for a tough, fun, and genuinely uplifting workout.

I’ve been a member at FW’s in Vancouver but the FW in Victoria goes beyond expectation. Niv Hack, my personal trainer has taken fitness to the next level for me. He nailed my program and I’ve seen more progress with him than with any other trainer. His background in kinesiology shows up in his professionalism and the way he tailors his program to get maximum gain from each session. He’s also super personable, responsive and makes training fun. You’re going to love personal training with Niv!
