Fantastic experience: New member of this club. Love how inclusive it is to all. The 6 week program really keeps me on track, and being able to utilise the app to follow what training i’m doing is just the cherry on top

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Supportive caring trained staff! Wonderful fellowship of women! Highly recommend. ♥️♥️
Fantastic experience: The friendliest, most supportive environment to be part of. A pleasure to turn up to classes and enjoy the whole calming experience of doing you.
Fantastic experience: I love everything about Samsara. From the caring staff to the friendly women members, the flexible class schedules and state of the art equipment. Belinda and her team provide a nurturing and encouraging environment for women of every age.
Negative experience: Impossible to get out once you sign the membership. They will be charging you until the end of the year even if you only been there for half of the year. Read other reviews on this same issue before signing the membership. They are really trying to steal your money.
Fantastic experience: Such a beautiful environment . Staff are so friendly. Equipment is amazing.
Negative experience: I don’t recommend this gym at all.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely thrilled with this all-female wellness gym! From the moment you step inside, you're embraced by an incredibly supportive atmosphere that motivates and uplifts. The trainers are exceptional—truly top-notch—(shout out to Tilley) making it a fantastic place for anyone, whether you're a gym regular or someone who’s never set foot in one before. Kates Pilates will have you feeling tip top in no time and it isn’t a noisy gym with bright lights, more so a nurturing environment to prioritise yourself!
Fantastic experience: I joined Samsara after working in the fitness industry for 20 years. I was looking for a health club rather than a gym. Wow do they delivery. Infrared saunas, meditation and sound healing, reformer Pilates and an inclusive outlook that includes everyone - Lycra or not!! Thank you for making exercise such a pleasure.
Fantastic experience: Amazing Health Club, I love having a gym and so many class options all under the one roof. Reformer pilates, yoga, sound meditation and the infrared saunas are just some of my favourites. The whole team are just so welcoming and friendly, the club just has a wonderful feel. Best gym/health club I have ever joined.
Fantastic experience: I wish I’d joined sooner. This is the most beautiful space I’ve been in - it honestly feels like a retreat. As a busy working mum I love that it’s open 24/7 and it offers a range of classes starting early and running til after work hours. The ladies are all very welcoming and there’s no gym egos here. I always leave feeling really invigorated and look forward to every visit.
Fantastic experience: The best thing I have done for myself in a long time is join this club. All of the staff are beautiful souls. I have also made many new friends.
Fantastic experience: Samsara is amazing! To open a gym not only for the body but for the mind is remarkable! Belinda has done an amazing job at curating a safe environment for women to come to workout. There is a lot of effort and care put into this gym for the well-being of women. The PTs take time out to make a 6 week program and also to show you how to do each exercise. I’ve been to other normal gyms before and have never expected as much care at the women at Samsara give. With all of the group sessions but also the personal care that goes into you is profound. I’ve recommended this gym to every women I know, it is truly magnificent. This is life changing for you well being! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Beautiful gym facilities with beautiful staff.
Fantastic experience: Samsara is a stunning gym, with great facilities. It's a very calm and friendly space, with supportive instructors who are always very positive...........it brightens my day!
Fantastic experience: This is probably my favourite ‘all round’ gym I’ve ever been to. It’s such a welcoming, supportive environment and there are SO many laughs. The trainers are amazing (special shout out to Tilly and Tina!), and everyone is just so willing to help when you’re down, give you a kick up the butt when you need it and give you a high five when you’re smashing it. The balance of classes is just awesome too and the saunas are fab! Would recommend to all ladies looking for a gym :)
Fantastic experience: Wonderful atmosphere, people and classes. Fabulously convenient location, always clean and calming !!
Fantastic experience: Incredible gym full of amazing women. I feel so comfortable and supported here. I have never enjoyed being in a gym before but this is nothing like anything I’ve ever tried before. It’s a real holistic approach to health and wellness.
Fantastic experience: Such a beautiful and calming space, all the girls are so supportive.
Fantastic experience: Reformer classes have been a game-changer for me! The instructor's guidance is excellent, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend for anyone seeking an effective and enjoyable workout! Love the saunas as well there’s something for everyone!
Fantastic experience: This is the absolute best gym I have ever attended. I actually look forward to going. The staff are amazing and the facilities are just so beautiful and very well maintained. It really feels like you’re part of a community here - the other members are all so welcoming, friendly and no judgement. 100% would recommended ☺️
Fantastic experience: Great experience! Lovely people, professionals
Fantastic experience: I have been a member here for six months now and couldn’t be happier! Walking into Samsara feels like walking in to a day spa. The staff are amazing as are the women who attend. I like a mixture of classes and being able to go and do my own thing out on the gym floor and Samsara’s fantastic facilities make this so easy to do. I highly recommend Samsara to all women of all ages looking to embark on a well being journey xx
Fantastic experience: Such a special gym to be a member of. Belinda has created the most precious community of women and surrounded them with kind, caring, fun staff and trainers. I feel very fortunate to be a part of this amazing space.
Fantastic experience: A very safe and happy gym for women, alot of help and support from the trainers. Always very welcoming to every member!
Fantastic experience: Best female only gym on the GC. Best classes and facilities and the instructors are just beautiful!!!!! Could not recommend more highly. I have made so many lovely friends of all ages. I look forward to getting out of bed to get to my early morning classes. The infra red sauna is a bonus!!!! 5 stars from me x
Fantastic experience: I have tried what feels like every gym on the Gold Coast and Samsara by far has been the very best. A safe, non judgemental space where I feel supported, encouraged & cared for. Not only is it aesthetically beautiful it has a wide variety of classes for all needs, a gym floor with lots of machines & equipment and the infrared saunas which are a perfect way to finish off a training session. Samsara has been life changing for me, for the first time ever I truly look forward to training every day. The staff are super friendly, helpful & supportive & I have made beautiful friendships, samsara is more than a gym, it’s like a second home & I can’t recommend it highly enough!
Fantastic experience: I don’t understand the hateful comments on here? When I joined, the lady I spoke to was very transparent about the cost and what you would get with each membership. This is actually the best gym on the Gold Coast, it was so hard to find somewhere with a relaxed vibe and beautiful space. I’m so happy I found this place <3
Fantastic experience: The absolute best gym I have ever been to. Not only if the space beautiful but the whole team and staff are Incredibly kind, understanding and encouraging. I have met people only once and they remember my name and my face and it’s so wonderful every time you walk in the door, you are welcomed by a friendly smile. There is absolutely no judgement and it is incredibly welcoming and lovely. The members are also so kind and supportive. I’m so glad I found this place. This place encompasses everything about woman’s well-being, and i feel so happy to be a member.
Fantastic experience: Always clean and quiet
Fantastic experience: A specialised lady's gym with all the right updated and clean equipment, Digitized key tag so you don't have to remember seat preferences and weights. Staffing team is very supportive of all goals.
Fantastic experience: a great place to exercise and meet friends
Fantastic experience: Samsara's facilities are great, and classes to meet everyone's needs. But their greatest assets are their staff... all so welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable, supportive and fun!
Fantastic experience: The staff are amazing & always friendly! The gym is such a wonderful and welcoming environment :)
Fantastic experience: Samsara is such a welcoming environment, with something for everyone looking to improve their wellbeing. All staff are lovely, easy to talk to, and genuinely care about you and your goals. Samsara is a place that makes you want to work out!
Fantastic experience: I use to find the gym so intimidating because of my lack of knowledge around machine use and proper form. The service you get here is something I’ve never experienced before, it’s incredible. I am now excited to go to the gym and feel confident! The individual saunas are such a beautiful way for me to end my week with some time to unwind. Thank you to the amazing team!
Negative experience: Overpromises with a big cost membership, but you can't book into classes or sauna spots. Her contract is faulty and when approached because I couldn't book into the classes or sauna sessions that were only available on the top tier membership because there are only 10/3 spots, I was still told I have to pay for the full contract?! As others have stated, she is all 'love and light' until you question why you can't access things and request to leave to get to a gym (so you can get a service that you pay for) to be told you have to pay it in full. It angers me that she is such a predator on women, when she claims to be so supportive of us. No wonder she takes over 10 days to respond because her email is getting "so much love". Avoid this place like the plague.
Fantastic experience: Amazing service, gym and overall experience. I’ve never felt so comfortable at a gym before. The staff are friendly and approachable. The other members make you feel like you belong and the utilities are fantastic. The sauna area is the most relaxing experience you need after a tough workout with the experienced trainers.
Fantastic experience: This gym is a gym full of smiles. Belinda has created the most beautiful space and environment. Samsara feels so safe and so calm also is without a doubt very clean! The members and the staff here are so beautiful which makes working out even better!
Fantastic experience: I signed up 4 weeks ago and never been happier. I love going to the gym again, the ladies are beautiful, happy and so thoughtful. I spent a year in a huge gym with not one staff member introducing themselves. After finding Samsara I feel at home, all the team are so caring and thoughtful to your experience and your journey. My experience has been 5 ⭐️ and so thankful and happy to be apart of an amazing gym with people that care and love what they do. I’m so happy they have me back on track with my goals and what I want out of my program and the outcome. Gym life is my number 1 in life and so happy to be a member of this gym.
Fantastic experience: Samsara has friendly and helpful staff. Love this gym!
Fantastic experience: The most beautiful space full of the most beautiful staff and members…. A true joy to experience
Fantastic experience: Samsara is just perfect for all my Wellness needs, a large selection of classes and time slots. Feminine, calm, relaxing and inviting… just perfect for the soul too!!!
Fantastic experience: I’m fairly new to this gym and all I can say is how much I enjoy going to the gym! Everyone is so welcoming and supportive to me and my goals I want to achieve. I always struggled going to other gyms as I never felt motivated and didn’t know what machines to use to get the results I’ve always wanted. All the lovely ladies here have helped me out and I’m really seeing results!
Fantastic experience: I am absolutely loving Samsara Women’s Health Club. The staff, the women’s only space and the classes are amazing. Everything I need to get back to my pre-baby self care!
Fantastic experience: Beautiful space from the fit-out to the facilities to the general vibe you get when you walk through the door. All the staff and trainers are super friendly and welcoming and treat you as a friend rather than just a member. Always feel incredibly comfortable, at ease and relaxed. Love everything about Samsara!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this place couldn’t recommend it more, such a safe space with incredible energy!
Fantastic experience: I am so grateful to have been recommended Samsara by a previous instructor there. Every visit feels special, like a gift to yourself. Staff are amazing, toilets and showers large and clean. For my needs the platinum membership is perfect as I attend reformer pilates several times a week and use the infrared sauna. Plenty of of other classes too. Plus a well equipped gym without the bright intimidating lights other gyms use. Book a tour today, you won't regret it.
Fantastic experience: Samsara has changed my life for the better the staff are very welcoming and supportive I highly recommend samsara
Fantastic experience: Love coming here. It’s such a beautiful gym and all the staff are so supportive and friendly. I definitely recommend this gym
Fantastic experience: Been a member since 2018 and never want to leave. The staff make this place. You walk in feeling so loved and accepted yet every class or session leaves you challenged. Their ammenities (eg. Regular body scans, multiple class options, seasonal timetables, different styles of workouts available) set you up for a win and keep you motivated. This gym is a safe space with great community and is here for YOU (mind body and soul). Special mention to B and Alex who from day dot have made us feel seen as a person and not just a member.
Fantastic experience: Such a beautiful space to share with so many lovely women. Wonderful Instructors.
Fantastic experience: Samsara gym is amazing! Staff are fantastic and so welcoming and supportive!

Fantastic experience: The absolute best gym! All the ladies are so welcoming and friendly. It’s the only gym I feel 110% confident in and get excited to go to! Thank you for being the best ever
Fantastic experience: I can’t tell you how grateful I am that I discovered this beautiful place. After moving to the Gold Coast recently and a few tough years, I am giving myself the gift of “me!” For the first time in my life, I’m allowing myself some time to reconnect. At the age of 65, I feel empowered and looking forward to regaining my health and strength. I’ve just finished my first week and I couldn’t be more happy. I’ve attended 2 classes and have loved them both. Kind, gentle instructors have made getting back to the gym a pleasure. I can’t thank Belinda enough for her kindness and encouragement and yes you were right in saying, I’m ready! Also thanks to Kate and Kat for my programming. I’m comfortably feeling my muscles after not working out for the past year. The atmosphere at Samsara is so relaxing and the staff are very welcoming. I couldn’t recommend Samsara more. ♀️️♀️
Negative experience: This gym is over priced and really small also read your contracts carefully they will rip you off 35.00 a week for a small gym and don't even get full access
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym and great classes.
Fantastic experience: Love the gym..The staff all friendly especially Michelle. The instructors are motivating and the classes are fun. A lovely group of empowering women. Getting addicted. Thank you Sandy Power
Fantastic experience: I absolutely love coming to Samsara, so far my faves have been Barre and slow flow! All the instructors are super warm, interactive with chatting before or after class, a real community feel x x
Fantastic experience: Samsara is such a beautiful club. I’ve only recently joined and am very impressed with the difference compared to all other gyms I’ve been to. The staff are very welcoming and supportive. The environment and facilities are clean and the equipment is up to date. With dimmed lighting, there is a calming feel when you walk through the doors. Join the club, I’m so glad I did!
Fantastic experience: Have been struggling with body issues/pain for a long time.. Chantelle took the time to understand and put a program together to help me back on track. Lovely environment and I enjoy the woman only presence.. I'll be recommending Samsara to family and friends!
Fantastic experience: Have been with samsara since it has opened, amazing atmosphere and ready to get you to your best self. Womens gym is an amazing idea when your young and are starting to learn. 100% recommend
Fantastic experience: I have been an on & off member for about 4 years now. I love being a part of Samsara. The classes are at convenient times so I can go early morning, they are between 30-45 minutes which also works so well. The staff are welcoming & nice. And the space is calm & peaceful. I’d love to try a reformer Pilates class and hoping to upgrade my membership in the new year.
Fantastic experience: I’ve enjoyed the encouraging and supportive environment here, along with the absolute positivity and non judgement. This is a place where women are accepted and supported to be their authentic self, in all way. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Only been here a short period of time but the women there are so amazing and make you feel welcome when you walk through the door. Such a calming friendly environment that makes you want to feel better & try harder to build strength for your mind and body. 100% recommended <3
Fantastic experience: I feel very happy with all instructors. They are very supportive and always happy to answer questions. All the members are very friendly and supportive of each other. I am sorry I will be away for 2weeks. Look forward to seeing everyone when I get back. Also like to put in a request for more dance classes quite? quite a few of us like it.
Fantastic experience: The gym is well setup to accommodate women in regards to safety or training programs. Belinda and staffs are always show personal interest in members, I am particularly adore the team of instructors: they work hard to impart good exercise techniques and are very knowledgeable when it comes to health and fitness, Samsara is a lovely contribution to the community.
Fantastic experience: Clean, tidy and safe. Friendly members and staff. Join this club is one of the best choice I’ve been made this year. Id recommend it to all my friends! I have lost 10kg of body fat in 6 months and my body is starting changing back my old self which is great. Now I upgraded my membership from 6-months to annual. :) it becomes an essential part of my daily life.
Fantastic experience: Samsara is simply amazing. I love training here as it’s quiet, safe and has all the right equipment. There are a variety of different classes available, including new reformer which has become a favourite. Samsara has a beautiful space, run by lovely ladies and I couldn’t be happier to be a part of this club! I always look forward to a sauna session after work.
Fantastic experience: Nice
Fantastic experience: Have never felt so lovingly welcomed into a gym! Such a beautiful space to clear the head and get amazing results! They understand that your mental health is just as important to train and look after too achieving any physical goals and help you along the way of understanding that. Amazing classes held in a gorgeous space as well as all the equipment you could ever need! I’m so grateful to be apart of this gym and even took my mum in who has never been to a gym before and she too felt so welcomed and so excited to go back! Thanks girls for creating something truly special! ✨
Fantastic experience: Samsara owners clearly have women in mind when they created this gym. A safe space, with beautiful supportive staff who aren’t about judgement and more about helping you achieve life health & fitness goals (whatever that may look like for you). I recommend this gym for any woman who has been avoidant of coed gyms, and feels self conscious in gym settings (like myself), looking for a beautiful space to work on you. Yes it may be on the expensive side in comparison to other gyms, but what you get for your money is very generous (fitness plans, scans and some PT, and access to classes and peace of mind), so it evens the playing field compared to other gyms.
Fantastic experience: Boutique gym. Wonderful trainers. Always clean. Very private. Lovey space to work out in!
Fantastic experience: The environment that Samsara offers and the incredibly knowledgeable staff and programs developed for me, helped me get back into a much needed workout regime. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, staff is always courteous and profession. A perfect fit for us who want to stay fit, healthy and happy.
Fantastic experience: Samsara is much more than a gym, it’s a welcoming, supportive and relaxing women’s club. They help to empower women and focus on overall well-being. The staff are all so amazing and helpful. Belinda, the Owner/Director is the best in the business and extremely passionate and welcoming. I cannot recommend this place enough- you will NOT be disappointed!
Fantastic experience: Laura has been amazing.

Fantastic experience: My wife absolutely loves this place.
Fantastic experience: Definitely one of my happy place to be. Ever since I've step into Samsara almost 2 years ago, I enjoy being there not only to work on my physique, but more so for my mental health. It is very pleasant to see amazing trainers to walk with you and help you reach your goals throughout your journey. Special shout out to Kat and Alex, you girls are truly amazing

Fantastic experience: Love coming here
Fantastic experience: 有不同的课程,各样的健身器材。
Fantastic experience: From the moment I walked into Samara, I knew it was the place for me. Previous to this club, I moved around a few of the larger gyms on the Gold Coast and found it a struggle to get motivated to achieve anything, let alone set goals and achieve them. I felt like I was just on a mouse wheel, wasting my time. Belinda and her team immediately made me feel welcome and planned a routine to improve my fitness and most importantly, my well being. From day one, I felt empowered. Each week I grew in confidence, to the point that as well as the classes and weight sessions I enjoy yoga & mediation twice a week, something I thought I would never do, but always wanted to. Thank you to the team at Samara you are all amazing!
Fantastic experience: Best health Club I have ever joined. The owner and her team are very caring, supportive and accommodating. This gym is an all over body wellness club, it truly feels like an escape rather than a chore. I fully recommend this club to any ladies ready to live a healthier mindful life.
Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere..Hine very patient and encouraging.
Fantastic experience: Always peaceful, clean and rewarding
