F45 Training

Injury Waiting to Happen…. I joined this gym temporarily while I’m in between places and wanted to continue training, as it was the only option close to where I was staying. I have years of experience with HIIT and functional training, and I noticed issues almost immediately. Coaches do not consistently watch or correct form, which makes the experience feel impersonal and potentially unsafe. Movement demonstrations are rushed with little explanation or opportunity to ask questions. Much of the class relies on following a screen rather than receiving proper coaching. The stretching portion is also screen-led and largely ineffective. Most members barely stretch, and it feels disconnected from the workout. In general, a gym should have mirrors so members can check their form at any point. If you already have experience and good body awareness, this gym may be fine. However, I would strongly recommend that anyone new to working out or returning after time away choose a different starting point where form and safety are prioritized.

Love F45 St. Albert! The workouts are always fun, fast-paced, and never boring. The coaches are super friendly and encouraging, and the vibe in the gym is really welcoming. Great place to get a solid workout in and stay motivated. Highly recommend checking it out! Thank you so much to Kate and the team!

After so much searching, I've found the best gym in St. Albert! The classes are challenging, but a quick 45 mins and you're off to the rest of your day. Instructors are educated and actually provide accommodations and suggestions as needed. The community within the gym is like none other, I know lots will say this, but this gym is actually friendly and supportive. You don't have to have a matching Alo outfit to fit in here ;) Highly recommend to anyone wanting a hard / fast-paced workout (whether that's strength, cardio, or a mix of both) in a welcoming, non-judgmental community that's accommodating to all fitness levels.

Amazing community and 10/10 gym! The owner Kate and her husband Quinton are so welcoming. The coaches make sure to take the time with you individually to meet your needs and get the most of your workout. The space has amazing music, fun people and great vibes. The gym is very clean, fully stocked with supplies you need and a coffee bar! They have thought of it all.
