The gym features a range of facilities, including locker rooms with styling stations, a spa area with showers, a sauna, a whirlpool, and dedicated spaces for various fitness classes.

Members can enjoy an extensive selection of classes, such as cycle, yoga, barre, HIIT, and bootcamp, accommodating all ages and skill levels. The class schedules are designed to be flexible, running from 8 AM to 7:45 PM throughout the week, although some popular classes, particularly barre and Pilates, tend to fill up quickly upon sign-up.

I've been a Healthworks member for 5 years—these are my thoughts.

I think Healthworks is a great gym for many reasons:

Occasionally I have a hard time hitting the machines I need, they’re busy, I’ll take a round walk around the gym or hit another machine…but every time I get back to the machine I need there’s a line or someone’s snatched it already. I don’t want to stand by a machine and make anyone feel rushed or awkward with their sets to ensure I get a turn but it’s starting to turn out like I might… read full review
