The Goolwa Gym: Opinions
Fantastic experience: I joined the Goolwa Gym on a "pay as you go" casual basis and it works really well. 24/7 access through a mobile app makes it super easy to zip in whenever it suits me. A relaxed gym with good air conditioning, clean and new machines and workouts on the board if you want them. Plenty of equipment around and not over populated, means I can get my workout done quickly and easily. Very female friendly.
We’re so happy we were able to offer you a service that works for your schedule Thank you for your review of our space Tanya

Fantastic experience: Great community gym! Troy and all the staff very helpful and friendly, always make you feel welcome. Membership fees very reasonable, and they supply handwash and cleaning wipes to keep you safe! Good security and open all the time. Very happy with this gym.
Thanks Victoria - it really does mean a lot to us as a small local family owned business to get reviews like this, We are very glad your enjoying your tie with us!
Fantastic experience: We were looking for a gym around the area that was accessible after hours. After a call to the Goolwa gym the guys made it easy by just sending us a link to sign up which took a couple of minutes. We paid for the single session and they let us in remotely! Once inside, the gym was well equipped and had everything you needed, clean tidy and background music. Worth the call if you are looking for a work out around the area after hours!
Thank you for your detailed review, Zane! We're thrilled to hear that our after-hours access and easy sign-up process made your experience enjoyable. It's great to know you found our gym well-equipped and clean. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to seeing you again!
Fantastic experience: Three members of our family joined this wonderful gym, can't recommend them highly enough. Very friendly, supportive and know their stuff. My husband is a cyclist and races in comps, Troy has been amazing with helping him with his programs, to help with endurance and strength. Which have been very successful! I've loved training since a young age, spent time in different gyms but normally preferred to own my own home gym as I've normally felt more comfortable doing it from home. With the Goolwa Gym I feel so comfortable being there and don't want to leave lol One on one PT sessions for our 16 year old son have helped him immensely especially with the way he looks, feels and especially his confidence.Jayden and Troy have made a massive difference in him. Thankyou Goolwa Gym and Co
Thank you for your kind words, ragan! We're thrilled to hear that your family is enjoying the gym and benefiting from our personal training sessions. It means a lot to us to contribute to your son's confidence and well-being. Your recommendation is greatly appreciated!
Fantastic experience: This is the gym for EVERYONE!! After 30+ years not enjoying any gym I am so impressed with the passion and vision of Troy and Stacy at what they have created in this beautiful town, such a welcoming and inclusive space. They are supportive in helping you make life long changes and the rewards are immeasurable! Not only have I lost weight and cememeters my fitness and strength is the best it's been in my adult years. Can not recommend highly enough the 8week challenge. In this you are provided with personalised nutritional plans by Troy. Small group fitness classes which was key for me being guided and made me feel more accountable, Stacey's energy is contagious and Jayden's strength classes are just fantastic! Pop in and see the team, there are so many different options when you join up!
Thank you for your wonderful review, Catherine! We are thrilled to hear how the gym has positively impacted your fitness journey. Your kind words about our team and programs mean a lot to us. We are here to support you every step of the way, and we can’t wait to see you continue to thrive!

Fantastic experience: It’s an awesome little gym with enough equipment to meet pretty much everyone’s requirements. A great range of free weights and excellent cable machines . The only thing I would like to see is an ab machine and a cold water bubbler inside. Otherwise, terrific.
Thank you for the wonderful review, Chris! We're glad you enjoyed your experience and found our equipment suitable for your needs. We appreciate your suggestions and will consider them as we strive to enhance our gym. Your feedback is invaluable to us!

Thank you Sienna, We're thrilled to hear that you found our staff helpful and our gym well-equipped and clean. We appreciate your support!
Fantastic experience: These are the 5 star reviews that pain me to give out. I wish places like this stay a hidden gem, but this gym needs to be recognised for how good it is. Staff are all so friendly and welcoming. Equipment is everything you need and nothing you don’t. Membership prices are extremely reasonable and nearly every day I went… it’s empty! Next time I’m in Goolwa I’ll be back here!
Legend thanks matey
Fantastic experience: Great place, clean equipment in excellent condition, friendly helpful staff and very affordable…very happy with my choice..
We’re happy to have you Christine Thank you for your feedback x

Thank you Lesa for you feedback, we have enjoyed trying new things and creating new movements for you
Fantastic experience: I have loved my Goolwa Gym membership and have found it to be unbelievably good value and heaps of fun. The classes are fabulous - heaps of variety with amazing instructors. Lynn is a Pilates guru whose talent and experience would be difficult to match anywhere. Troy and Stacey along with the dedicated team are incredibly proactive in making everyone feel welcome and supported in meeting fitness goals regardless of whether you are athletic or like me, a complete novice. They are strongly focussed on ongoing improvement to the facility whether that is programs and classes offered, painting, landscaping, upgraded equipment and providing social events. It just keeps getting better!

Thank you Terry for your feedback, we’re so glad you feel at home in our space
Fantastic experience: I’ve been attending this gym for the last 9 months and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The personal training sessions with Troy, Stacey and Jayden are top-notch! They each bring a unique approach whilst taking into consideration ailments and injuries plus the good banter makes every workout something to look forward to. The environment is incredibly welcoming and comfortable, perfect for anyone who might feel overwhelmed or intimidated by a typical gym setting. It’s a place where everyone can feel at ease while focusing on creating a healthier lifestyle and getting moving. f you’re contemplating one-on-one fitness training, I highly recommend this place. The team here truly know how to motivate and support you on your fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: I joined the over 40s strength training program & have improved considerably, enjoying the support & encouragement from other class members & instructors.

Fantastic experience: Goolwa Gym is a friendly welcoming environment - both the staff and the members. I have felt supported in my strength development, with Trainers looking out for me in ensuring I'm using equipment safely and effectively. The atmosphere is positive and fun. Jayden is an asset in Strength Club and I left Stacey's Retro-Aerobics with a smile on my face for the day!
We absolutely love this! Thank you for joining our gym family
Fantastic experience: A friend and I were looking for a gym to train at on a Sunday and Troy was super helpful to get us in for a casual session. I was surprised to have found somewhere open on a Sunday, he sent us detailed instructions on how to enter the gym and made sure we made it inside. Thank you for making it easy to train! The gym also had a wide range of equipment, meeting our workout needs. Would recommend!
Thank you so much ! We are so glad we could help you get a workout in today Come back again soon

Thanks mate, appreciate such a wonderful review xxx
Positive experience: Being active briefly benefits life at length, so that twice weekly visits to the gym pay dividends all the time. For this serious reason, I joined as a member - now I go when convenient, day or night. When I get sound-cancelling earphones, it will get 5 stars.
Well at least I know what to get you for Xmas now John
Fantastic experience: I joined Goolwa gym when I was in South Australia exploring Fleurieu Peninsula. I had a really good time at the gym. You get all the equipment you need, staff are so friendly and supportive. They would literally come up and give you advice if you doing certain exercises wrong. It's safe, very clean and there's plenty of parking. You also can join the group classes including palate if you like. I will definitely come back when I'm back in South Australia. Cheers, Amila
Thank you for the review. Glad to hear you had a good time, enjoy your travels! See you next time :)
Fantastic experience: Been coming to this gym each summer for the last 3 years and love it! Fantastic staff, classes and equipment. This year decided to do a Start Up 1:1 pack with Troy as I felt I had plateaued. Wow what a difference! Within 3 weeks I’ve seen a gain in muscle and strength. Troy really knows his stuff and not only refines your training style but helps with nutrition and supplements. Highly recommend!

Thank you for your 5 star review we are stoked you love our facility
Fantastic experience: Just wanted to say a massive thank you to Trainer Troy for fixing a long term shoulder issue (17 years) that I had resigned myself to being something I was stuck with for life. After numerous shoulder dislocations snowboarding when I was younger, I had continuous shoulder issues when trying to play sport later in life. I literally could not throw a ball, or try and serve in tennis, even hold my weight hanging on a bar. Any of these actions would render my shoulder useless for at least a week. Troy gave me a couple of specific shoulder exercises to throw into a gym routine. After just a little more than 3 months of following these strengthening exercises, approximately 2-3 times a week, I can hang freely and just played my first game of tennis. I served at full pace and had no residual pain or feelings of soreness whatsoever! I literally could not believe how good my shoulders felt. I cannot wait for cricket season to start this year and test my throwing arm out! Troy, Thank you, I love your work! Cheers Adam
Thank you Adam for your review we’re glad Troy had been able to help you and your ready to get back into sport
Positive experience: Hi Team I have been attending Lyn’s Body Balance and Pilate classes for the past 3 years. With perseverance and determination I feel so much fitter and stronger and I have Lyn and your Gym to thank. My only concern is you need to step up your cleaning regime before our classes commence, just too gritty under foot which makes some of our mat exercises unpleasant. I am grateful the gym is conveniently located where I live enabling me to attend all of Lyn’s classes and I have recently started her Cardio and Strength classes on Saturdays so much fun.
Thank you for your Review Josie, we appreciate the 4 stars :) We have taken your feedback on board and hope your happy with the resolution. Lynne is an awesome instructor, were very lucky to have her. :)
Positive experience: I have attended the gym over many years, basically since it openend. I am attending group classes a few times a week. My favorite is Body Balance with Lynne who is motivating us and makes it great fun. All staff are friendly and helpful. My big disappointment was that after the last shutdown our Thursday Movers class just was cancelled. No explanation or negotiation Many of us have attended this class over 10 years. Still hoping! If I could please suggest the floors get cleaned in the group room as we do barefoot exercises and its usually gritty and unpleadant. At the least put in a big broom to enable us to clean our spot.
Thank you Esther for your 4 star review Lynn will love this feedback, we will pass on your kind words. I will attach our email address so you can send any further suggestions/request through to the Admin manager. [email protected]
Fantastic experience: What can I say, I absolutely love this place! The trainers are all so friendly, have years of experience and highly qualified to help you reach your fitness goals. They can guide you through all aspects of your journey, from 1 on 1 training, nutrition and advice tailored to your specific needs to super fun classes, whether you've never set foot in a gym before or are an athlete needing some extra guidance from an expert this is the gym to go to. Me personally I walked in the gym weighing 176kgs and the experts at the f.i.t Health and Fitness Center helped me lose a staggering 81kgs over the course of 3 years, not just losing the fat but gaining a level of fitness I've never known and boosting my confidence so much I'm a completely different person inside and out, I even managed to completely reverse type 2 diabetes so I no longer have the condition thanks to these guys and girls. The members and trainers alike are all so happy and friendly, it just a good place to be, so come and say hi! In my book f.i.t Health and Fitness Center deserve all the stars in the sky.
Daniel that’s more then we could have asked for in a review! Thank you so much!! And a huge congrats to you on you amazingly inspiring weight loss, a try inspiration to many ❤️
