BEST BODY FITNESS
About us
You don’t want just a gym membership. You want a membership that means something. And
that means you need support, expert help and a community.
Best Body Fitness isn’t just a gym: it’s a full-service fitness membership made for you.
Here’s how it works:
STEP ONE: Your assessment
We begin with an assessment session. This is a chance for you to see what we do at Best
Body. Our assessment plans are no-cost and no-risk. We’ll also make a training plan
specifically, for you.
STEP TWO: Your training
When you decide to become a Best Body member, we show you what to do, how to do it and
why you are doing it. After a few sessions with an expert private trainer, you will feel
comfortable working out on your own. But don’t worry, we’ll always be nearby if you have
questions.
STEP THREE: Your membership
Membership works on a month-to-month basis. There are no sign-up fees and no cancellation
fees. Start and stop whenever you want. And the best part? Our fees are the most competitive
in the whole downtown area.
STEP FOUR: Your community
At Best Body Fitness, we see everyone as part of a big team. And when you work with a
team, you can do great things. Join any of our specialised classes, led by expert instructors.
Come to our nutrition classes. Participate in our regular social events. Everything is included
in your fee.
Finally, we wanted to share with you some reasons why our members say that they have
chosen us over any other fitness centre in the city.
