My Gym Children's Fitness Centre , Ottawa

We just had my daughter's birthday party there and it was a fantastic time. The employees (I forget their names), did such a great job engaging the kids and the games were so much fun. We will definitely be back!

My daughter has been going to my gym for the past 6 to 7 months and i have to say i love their programs and especially the teachers. They all are super cooperative.

Our son has been attending My Gym Children’s Fitness Centre for over a year now, so it’s about time I finally write a review. TL;DR we all love it and recommend it to all. We give it 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Our son was born premature during COVID, so it was a rough start. We were looking for things for him to do, that will be fun and encourages his development. Finally, we found My Gym and it was just perfect.He is 2.5 years old now and LOVES going to My Gym. It is the only thing he has stuck with. Our son has tried swimming, dance, and soccer, both by the city and private classes, and nothing has come close to My Gym. We have to say, although the program is absolutely fantastic, the people are even more so. In particular, Mamy, the children’s fitness instructor and manager, is so lovely, kind, patient, and skillful. She proactively helps our son when she sees he needs a push and has taught him so many cool skills! When he wants to sit out of an activity (he doesn’t like the swings), usually he plays by himself, but he has asked her for a book sometimes and she will sit and read with him for 10 minutes, 1-on-1. In other classes mentioned above, he has been left behind before and it was so disappointing. We can’t be any more grateful to the attentive staff. I don’t think anywhere else has as wonderful service as My Gym.At My Gym, he is exposed to a variety of different activities, challenges, games, books, songs, circle time, puppet shows, and more every single week in class. He gets to learn skills such as climbing up and also down, front rolls, backward rolls, flips, balancing, bear crawling, throwing and hand-eye-coordination, sorting, running, cleaning up the toys, teamwork with friends, identifying colours, dancing, following multi-step instructions, holding on and swinging on a tire swing, and zip lining, etc etc etc. Yes, they even do zip lining across the gym in a secure swing! It’s seriously so much fun. The set up of the gym is changed weekly so it never gets boring. Our son is so confident now and loves trying new things in this safe environment. Our son did a back flip, upside down, in a moving swing (with Mamy’s support of course, but still!!). I was seriously amazed!!! He’s only 2!It’s very clean, too. Children go barefoot and the adults wear socks. They are encouraged to wash their hands after and get stamps at the end. No food is allowed on the floor, but you can feed your child after the class on the side. Our son loves his post-workout snacks!On top of regular class, there is also “Practice and Play” that runs multiple times a week where kids can come in and do whatever they want for fun.A membership at My Gym provides so much more value for the price (compared to swimming for example, which was 25 minutes a week for $130, at My Gym you could spend every single day there for just $120).Lastly, outside of the membership, they have additional events such as “Parents Night Out (PNO)” and an “Easter Egg Hunt.” The cost is reasonable at $45 for PNO. For $15 an hour, instead of staying home with a babysitter, they get to spend time with friends, make crafts, have dinner, play games and more. We dropped off our son for the PNO recently, his first time away from family or daycare, and we couldn’t have felt more trusting of Mamy and the team. We let him know beforehand and he was honestly just excited to go, and said “bye mama bye papa see you soon!” Our son had a wonderful time there and came home with a loot bag of things he loved too. He didn’t cry or have any issues.We all love My Gym so much, we wonder how sad it would be to move away one day. Well, luckily, My Gym is a franchise with locations across both Canada and the US. I would make sure we move close to another one, haha! We would miss Mamy and her team the most, though. This is a long review, but we felt we had to give all the details for those wondering if they should enrol their kids or not.Do it! It’s worth it!

This place is amazing! My son was celebrating his birthday there today and it was a blast!!! The staff is very professional, friendly and very hardworking!!!!! Highly recommended!!!!!! If I could I would give 10 stars out of 5 :)))

My daughter absolutely loves My Gym. It is a great combination of a structured class and free play. She has so much fun while working on her gross motor skills. The kids also practice sharing, listening to basic instructions, sorting, color recognition, and much more during the activities and adventures. It's a great way to keep kids active, especially during the winter months.The instructors are patient and personable.

Wonderful experience with my gym. We hosted my son's 4th birthday there and the staff was fun, friendly and professional. I recommend this business.

My kid loves coming here. Staff is fun, creative and super kind.

I had the pleasure of visiting My Gym, today for a friend's birthday party, and I must say that my experience was nothing short of excellent. From the moment I walked through the doors, I could tell that this was a place where kids could have fun and stay active.The staff at My Gym was awesome! They were friendly, welcoming, and seemed genuinely passionate about working with children. They took the time to explain the different activities available and made sure that each child felt comfortable and included.The facility itself was clean and perfect. The equipment was well-maintained and designed with children in mind. There were plenty of areas for kids to run, jump, climb, and explore, and everything was arranged in a way that made it easy for parents to supervise and participate in the activities.Thank you for a wonderful experience!Overall, I highly recommend My Gym to anyone looking for a fun and engaging way to keep their children active and healthy. The staff is wonderful, the facility is clean and well-maintained, and the programs are top-notch. I can't wait to bring my own children back for more fun and fitness!

Every day they have different acivities and obstacles for kids. It's realky great and well planned and I can see improvements in my toddler. They do circle time and sing so it's intersctive. I love the activities and it's eorth investing in for your kids to not only have fun but improve their physical strength. The staff are friendly and great to work.
