Playground Fitness | Group Fitness and Personal Training

I came in for a Free Trial. I was recommended by a friend. Right of the bat, I was greeted by the owner. He asked me a few questions that made me feel comfortable right away. Very professional and very respectful.As the class started, it was just like what I expected, it was tough but man it was a really motivating experience. I'm out of shape but the community was so welcoming. At first, it felt like I was surrounded by athletes to later find out they all started just like me. The coach made sure and always checked-in on me and made sure my form was correct.The facility has that grunge hardcore gym vibe which i really love but the vibe of this community is really amazing. I've lived all over North America and this is by far the best gym I've been to. I would recommend this place to any of my friends and family. Good Job Playground team!

As a beginner to the gym scene who felt totally out of my element at first, I’m so glad that I chose Playground Fitness. Not only do the trainers help you develop your strength and skills at whatever your level is at, but the other gym goers are equally as welcoming and supportive. If you want a place that will push you to your absolute best but also takes you in as a part of their community, then you’ve found your place at Playground. I do both personal training with Sam, and a weekly class, and would highly recommend this gym.

I love this gym. I was paying significantly more for group training and driver farther to the other side of Burnaby. This place is well equipped with very kind trainers who meet you where you are at while also helping you improve your fitness. Aeson, the owner, is highly involved with the gym and has a strong presence which I really like as well! He teaches multiple classes with many regulars.

Love this place on my first try, lots of equipments, great encouragement from the coach as well as m the fellows around me. Will continue to visit.

This is the best gym I have ever gone too. Not only are the workouts intense and always varied, but they're really fun. I always get a great sweat on and feel soo good afterwards. Beyond that, the staff are friendly and there is a real sense of community here. The heart of it all is Aeson, the owner, whose passion really shines through and brightens the entire gym. If you're looking for a fantastic community and place to push yourself physically, Playground is it! Highly recommended.

Really great gym out in Burnaby near Metrotown/Royal Oak. It was super easy to book a class on their website and I appreciate the ample free parking!The class itself was great. I tried the Rack City class with Aeson and he greeted me warmly and showed me around the gym. Lots of equipment, squat racks, dumbbells, kettlebells, weights etc. Aeson did a great job demonstrating the movements and providing instruction and good tips and feedback.Great warmup and challenging but fun programming. The AMRAPs and set ladders were pretty killer but I appreciated the push. Good mixture of squats, deadlifts, burpees and other functional movements.

Amazing gym, with knowledgeable and supportive trainers. Classes are always fun and challenging whether you are a beginner or advanced gym-er. The trainers push you past limits you didn’t even know you had.I attended my first class in 2021 with Sam on a whim, in hopes of getting into shape after over a year of WFH. As someone who has never lifted weights before, I was definitely apprehensive, but since joining Playground I have been met with nothing but encouragement, and support from this community to reach my strength and fitness goals.

Aeson has built such a welcoming and supportive community.There is a large variety of classes that can accommodate all fitness levels. Trainers are incredibly knowledgeable, motivating and provide valuable feedback. Workouts are dynamic, fun and satisfying, and they set the tone for the rest of the day.

Great instructors, amazing energy. Every session, I feel stronger and PUMPED. The community Playground fitness is so welcoming. The efforts to ensure proper form throughout the workouts are appreciated, from all the instructors. Highly recommend this fitness facility!

Love the vibe here, very friendly trainers, some of the best music in any gym I've been to, and always leave drenched in sweat with a smile.
