More about Group Fitness Classes

 

Coaching Sessions

We have qualified coaches to assist you with our equipment and programs. Coaching sessions focus on cardio and strength training equipment orientations.

Coaching sessions are reserved at the front desk and you can book as many sessions as you need to feel confident with your fitness program. We want you to feel successful and get results. Even if you are experienced with fitness training and gym equipment, we still encourage you to book a coaching session to become familiarized with The Woman's Place. Coaches are also available to answer any of your questions and/or concerns.

 

Locker Room

We provide all of our members with 2 options for the use of lockers at The Woman's Place.

Locker Rentals
For as little as $5 a month, you can rent your own locker and have your personal items ready and waiting for you at the club.

Day Use Lockers
We have a number of complimentary lockers reserved for members to use when they are in the club.

 

Parking

During the peak hours, the parking lot can be a busy place. If you are having trouble finding a place to park there is plenty of space available in the Trinity Baptist Church parking lot next door. In consideration of our neighbouring businesses we ask that our members do not park directly in front of their businesses during working hours.

 

Checking-in

All members and guests are required to check-in at the front desk when they arrive. Key tag members are asked to "swipe" their tag each time they come in.

 

What to Wear

We suggest that you wear comfortable exercise clothing that does not restrict your movement or cause you to overheat while exercising. 

 

Questions?

If you have any questions or concerns please contact any of the TWP staff team at the fitness club or on our Contact page.

Shoes

Clean, indoor, athletic shoes must be worn at all times (mind/body classes exempt) while exercising at The Woman's Place. Absolutely no bare feet, sock feet or sandals will be permitted when using the exercise equipment.

 

Workout Towel

A small workout towel is required for both the group fitness classes and when using equipment.

 

Cardio Room

Our cardio room is equipped with several TVs.  Earphones and remotes are available.
We have over 30 pieces of cardio equipment so waits for equipment are rare. Please limit yourself to 30 minutes if there is someone waiting to use the piece of equipment you are using.
