Playground Fitness | Group Fitness and Personal Training

Best gym I've ever attended. Pricey but worth it. Be prepared to push yourself hard. If you don't like killing yourself in class, take a pass.

Having tried several bootcamp training classes, I can say that Playground Fitness is one of the best. The workouts are tough, and the trainers are encouraging and personable. I had the opportunity to speak to Aeson on a personal level and not only is he knowledgeable on fitness and nutrition, he deeply cares for his clients and trainers as well. All around great gym to workout at. More...

I have nothing but great things to say about Playground and highly recommend anyone to join. I have been going regularly for 9 months now and have never felt stronger or more fit. Within the first month I was already noticing results and even after 9 months I am motivated to go because it's never the same workout. Aeson and his team are knowledgeable, motivating, and very importantly, approachable. The atmosphere is inclusive and welcoming to people of all sizes/shapes/age/gender. The workouts are super tough but you always feel great afterwards and never regret going. Again, I highly recommend this gym and I am really grateful for everything they do there! More...

Having joined Playground Fitness several months ago, I can honestly say from my results (having lost 35 lbs so far) that these guys really know what they're doing. The workouts are fun, difficult and constantly changing, and completing them always gives you a sense of pride at the end of each workout. The trainers are friendly but they will push you hard because they WANT you to succeed. Though I signed up for the classes and not personal training, they are also always willing to provide me with tips and tricks that will help me perform as a better athlete to maximise my workout.I can honestly say that this place has really changed my life for the better and I look forward to the next challenges in the years to come. Highly recommended. More...

Playground Fitness has the best classes by far and I've been to my fair share of fitness classes at other places. The trainers will come around and correct your form and help you. This is something that I don't see often from my past experiences elsewhere. I've been a client of the studio for almost two years now (since 88 Athletica) and I immediately fell in love with their classes. The classes are always challenging and it's always different. I've been pushed to do things I never thought was possible for myself and it's left me wanting to do more as my accomplishment has further motivated me. I took a break during my pregnancy and the first person that came to mind to whip me back into shape was Aeson. He's patient, passionate, humble and best of all pre/post natal certified. If you're looking for a personal trainer then I highly recommend him and if not then try out one of their classes and you won't be disappointed! More...

For someone who hates going to the gym, Aeson and his team have made it an enjoyable and addicting experience. Every class is different and challenges you, the team is knowledgable and takes the time to ensure you understand the full aspects of each exercise.

I've been to a few different fitness classes with different companies but Playground is different from the rest. I've never been pushed so hard in my life; this is a good thing! I am a beginner in the fitness world and after 3 months of training at Playground, I feel stronger. Aeson is smart as he comes from a medical background. He is passionate in making sure that we all have fun and importantly, we are doing the movements correctly. He's a good cheerleader to have. Try out one class. You won't be disappointed. More...

If you’re looking for a REAL workout, Playground is the place to go! It’s not for everyone, but I definitely recommend that you try at least one class (first class is free). I guarantee you’ll hate every minute of it, BUT the strangest thing happens…you walk away feeling absolutely amazing and find yourself coming back the next day and the next etc. Every Sunday I dread and, at the same time, look forward to Mondays class.Aeson, is a very tough but motivating trainer that challenges you every class so that you’re growing and continuously beating your personal bests. So if you need someone to push you and keep you on track, he's that guy. It’s also very reassuring that he’s extremely knowledgeable in sports science and always ensures that you have the correct form. Even though it’s in a small group setting, you’ll feel like you’re getting one on one training so it’s totally worth it! More...

Playground has been an amazing experience for me. I've been going pretty regularly for the last 7 months and I can only say great things about this place. The trainers are knowledgeable in their expertise and are able to cater to clients and their particular needs. I would highly recommend Playground to anyone who is looking to transform themselves both mentally and physically. Props need to be given to Aeson. He is a fantastic trainer, a hard working business man, and an honest and kind person. More...

I've been to many gyms, boot camps, workout training for different sports (basketball). This is hands down my favorite place to workout. Every class is different, every trainer is so motivating and pays attention to you specifically unlike other gyms/classes. They play awesome music and Aeson is amazing at what he does! Highly recommend! :) More...

Workouts are intense and super efficient. They pack so much into an hour. Even coming just 2 or 3 times per week my fitness improved substantially. Workouts are always different which is oddly motivating. Trainers are all great and keep things challenging if you're at the top of your game, but also accessible if you're just starting out. HIGHLY recommend. More...

Joining Playground Fitness was one of the best decisions I made for my health. I joined late 2016 and have seen amazing results since. I have lost inches, created muscle definition, and overall gained knowledge on how to maintain the health of my body. I have tried boot camp classes at other places and nothing beats this place and that is why I keep going back. The trainers are great and motivating and you get one on one attention. The atmosphere at Playground Fitness is super welcoming and friendly. I would highly recommend Playground Fitness to anyone who is looking to get fit and healthy. More...

Best place to workout hands down! Was stuck in a rut for over a year, in and out of the gym. Came into playground and have already noticed more results in 2 months than I did in the past year. Trainers are very attentive and pay close attention to each person training. Extremely knowledgeable for fitness and diet, more than any other personal trainers in "big box gyms." Very positive environment and a place full of good energy right when you walk into the gym space. Classes are always different so you never know what to expect, keeps the body guessing and makes it that much more fun. Would highly recommend this to everyone looking to try something new, as they honestly care about your progress and goals. More...
