mActivity Fitness Center

Positive experience: The free tea & coffee were replaced by ads for a new coffee shop with a one-dollar discount...It's been very detrimental to the collective lounge reading/working sessions which I appreciated so much about Mactivity. Returning from the summer, the community atmosphere seem to have dissipated, and things feel way more corporate, and the membership fee only seems to be on the rise. Just canceled my membership this morning - sad to say goodbye.

Fantastic experience: I love mactivity

Fantastic experience: Great health club. Very neighborhood and popular. Not at all crowded. Very friendly. Good to hang out. Demerits for no longer providing tea and coffee!

Negative experience: Benefits have declined while rates rise. The license to Les Mills classes has been terminated, members are charged higher rates, and group fitness teachers are being pressured to teach classes without licenses. Just this week the mangers announce they will no longer provide the coffee members were charged for to pressure members to support their friends coffee shop. The moral compass here is off and managers need to reevaluate their priorities.

Fantastic experience: Edited too many times to count: Homey gym;

Fantastic experience: The best gym I have attended in Connecticut. Staff are courteous, professional, and extremely accommodating. Price reflects the quality of service and attentiveness to customers wants and needs. Highly recommend if you are looking for a high end gym, with a great community feel.

Fantastic experience: Bahahahahahahaahahahahahahaahahaahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaahhaahha! Good gym ️‍♂️

Negative experience: I had a very bad experience with the manager of this gym regarding my membership. I attempted to cancel the membership on the second of February after I was charged on the first of February. They took 3 days to get back to me. The manager Rose Martin did not agree about reimbursing me at all. If you decide to sign up for this gym, I recommend being cautious about giving your credit card due to this lack of flexibility. To be clear, I am upset about their policies about reimbursement, the delay in cancellation for 3 days and the fact that I need to log in to their website to cancel the membership instead of doing this cancellation over the phone or email (to clarify I initially attempted to cancel this membership via the app Mactivity and was not able to). In my opinion, would not recommend this gym due to poor customer service which genuinely soured my experience at this gym.

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Great variety of classes. I really like with their steam room and sauna. They also have social nights with a DJ on Thursdays.

Fantastic experience: Such a fantastic gym! Yesterday, somehow my AirPods fell (in their case) bounced inside the stair stepper machine. Andrew (awesome employee!) fearlessly sacrificed his arm to reach back into the stair stepper and retrieved the case, and buds individually. Thanks for going above and beyond the call of duty!

Fantastic experience: Incredibly friendly and understanding staff. I commuted in from out of town and they welcomed me like I was a local. Great facility. Very clean. Lots of equipment and machines. The customers seemed happy and like they had a sense of community. I wish I lived here so I could go to this gym.

Fantastic experience: this is the best gym. yes it's more expensive than Payne or Planet Fitness, however I would pick this gym over those any day--the equipment is brand new and in great shape/well-maintained (especially the iFit treadmills which are AMAZING), unlimited classes are included (that alone can more than pay for the membership), there's a sauna and a steam room in the locker rooms, free cryo and compression once a month, they have free tea and coffee at the entrance, there's a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere (lots of different kinds of people of varying fitness levels and no one making anyone feel like they don't belong). The staff is all super friendly. They also host monthly social gatherings. Also you accrue points by going and they have actually nice rewards like a great gym bag, yoga mat, free sessions with trainers, extra cryo and compression sessions, and more. Totally, totally worth the price. Really can't say enough good things about this place. I hated gyms until this gym so that says a lot!!!

Fantastic experience: A great gym with wonderful classes, friendly staff, and very clean

Negative experience: They allow men to use the women's locker room and changing area.

Positive experience: Some of the classes could use a refresh but overall love the gym!

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy Sarah's Pilates and BodyPump class. My core strength have greatly improved since I started taking her classes.

Fantastic experience: I really liked the teacher! I'm new and she helped me understand the equipment and was very encouraging to do my best but was mindful of the variety of skill and activity level in the class. Loved it!!!

Fantastic experience: Staff is always kind and courteous, classes are abundant, machines and equipment are clean and up to date, there's a pretty ubiquitous culture of wiping things down when you leave your area, which makes the whole place feel especially clean, and locker rooms are spacious and luxurious.

Fantastic experience: This gym is amazing!! It feels more like a spa since they offer a steam room, a sauna, cryotherapy, personal training, classes, Pilates, towel service, and the friendliest staff!! Plus they offer free coffee and tea! The atmosphere is calming and welcoming. A must try!!!!

Negative experience: They allow men to enter and use women locker rooms. I wouldn't want my daughter or niece here. Despite its advertising as a community-oriented and inclusive environment, it does not live up to those claims. An overall unfriendly environment. Note, they claim any person that leaves a bad review "isn't a member". I came as a guest and won't be returning.

Fantastic experience: MActivity offers tons of exercise opportunities for everyone. I am amazed at the amount and diversity of the exercise equipment. You could never run out of things to do. The classes I have taken are very good. The culture is diverse and welcoming. I have been working with a trainer and have made great progress in overcoming injury. The price is amazing for all they have to offer. Highly recommend!

Negative experience: I would not recommend this fitness center. The available space is insufficient, they employ unprofessional attendants, and offer limited operating hours. If you’re a Yale student, go to Payne or consider a similarly situated commercial gym. The gym's space is notably inadequate compared to commercial gyms, resulting in frequent machine congestion and workout delays. One of their attendants, Brian, exhibits unprofessional behavior by frequently badgering long-standing members about their membership status, often implying they don't belong. Brian seems disinterested in assisting members and prefers not to be approached. His presence is mainly during the evening shift, so it's advisable to avoid that time for a hassle-free workout. Also, the gym's closing time is notably early compared to similar gyms in the vicinity. Consider choosing an alternative gym that offers lower costs, more space, and fosters a more inclusive and welcoming environment.

Negative experience: Me and all my friends were kicked out and the owner said and I quote "I own and business and we don't need you're money" and made up things that we supposedly did at the gym like disrespecting staff and leaving out equipment in which we have never done. Do not go here, their gym is also very small and has a lack of machines and weights and doesn't fix machines quickly at all. For 100+ dollars a months your simply getting scammed go to planet fitness for a better gym for 80 less dollars a month.

Negative experience: I'm shocked and disappointed by the mActivity gym new membership fees at $149 per month. There's no pool there and a very limited space in general. They are creating a non-inclusive, white and elitist facility and should be ashamed of themselves.

Fantastic experience: Cleanest and best maintained gym I’ve ever been to. Way better to go to than giant gym chains or the cursed Payne Whitney. Not the cheapest option but definitely think you get your money’s worth. They have great communal space and social events and cool stuff like cryotherapy which I had never tried before but liked a lot. I cannot emphasize how much cleaner this gym is compared to much larger chains and I really have to applaud the staff for keeping it spotless. Out of order machines weren’t really a problem for me here either, and ending my membership was really easy. The other gym members were overall very respectful. If I had to name a downside, I would say it would be some of the classes that occur around 5pm/6pm that take up a lot of the turf space and use a loud timer that I found distracting; I would prefer if larger classes were not at peak time and less disruptive, but not a huge deal. Would definitely have stayed a member if I stayed in New Haven!

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym! I love the workout classes they offer, especially the ones they just added last week. This gym has become my second home, not only do you get to workout but also get the chance to meet great friends. Impressed with the cleanliness of the equipments, professionalism and friendly staff members they have. Highly recommend this gym for beginners and or pros

Fantastic experience: Cleanest atmosphere I've ever seen for the fitness. There's 2 day free trial before you can make up your mind. Barbara gave a warm welcome and she's very nice. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I’m so pleased that I chose this gym, for several reasons. From the friendly, personable staff who go above and beyond, to awesome classes that are included, to the incredible spa area with a sauna and steam room…all contribute to an all inclusive, amazing experience. I’ve used the chryotherapy and compression treatment that’s offered, and how recharged I feel when done, speaks for itself. The owners are so generous…They have themed monthly community events, that bring people together, and opportunity for local businesses to take part in. I have joined many gyms in different areas of the state and on the west coast…Mactivity has exceeded all my expectations and more. The best gym ever ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: This is a wonderful gym! Gyms can be intimidating, but everyone at mActivity (staff, members, instructors, etc) is so kind. It's a great and clean facility with a lot of natural light. The gym offers a variety of fitness classes everyday (yoga, barre, strength training, spin, and more!) that are included in your membership. I spent the majority of my time taking classes because I needed the guided workout and energy that can only come from a class workout. All of the instructors are amazing and great at keeping the music and workouts interesting, but a special shout out must go to LaToya who is so strong and whose classes are so fun that I barely noticed how hard I was working. There are too many perks that come with the membership to name all of them but here are some of my favorites: monthly catered socials, a point system where you can accumulate them by signing up for classes and referring friends to the gym and then redeem them for gym swag or personal training sessions, free towel service, and a sauna. I'm moving away so I can't enjoy this gym anymore but I hope this review convinces you to join!!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! The staff are friendly, the gym is always clean and smells nice, and the classes are awesome too! Matt has awesome HIIT and Tabata for an intense and efficient workout. Somehow for a gym the coffee is on point too ☕️

Fantastic experience: Honestly, this is the best gym I have ever belonged to. Wonderful staff, attractive and comfortable environment. Great classes, shout out to Lindsay for her yoga sessions and private yoga training and my trainer Kevin Mangini! Three-plus years and still counting.

Negative experience: not worth price or experience

Fantastic experience: Loved the atmosphere and everyone was very professional and friendly.

Positive experience: very nice gym, very bad opening hours!

Fantastic experience: The educational information and walking through on how the machines work and not being left to struggle

Positive experience: I just returned to this gym. I was away from it for about two years and it seems to be as good as ever. I kinda thought they used to make smoothies though.

Fantastic experience: I adore this gym. The vibe is clean and healthy and uplifting and I’m just happy when I’m there! Literally everything I could ever want is in this gym, the weights and machines are phenomenal and the group classes are amazing! Also all of the amenities are seriously unreal. The sauna and the steam room are both amazing but the new cryotherapy is a whole other level. I hate being cold so I was hesitant to try it but HOT DANG the energy it gives you before a workout is like endogenous prework out! mActivity is seriously my happy place!

Negative experience: It’s a standard gym. I’ve certainly been to better. In general, the gym is clean and offers a good variety of equipment and classes. Additionally, there is usually little to no wait time for equipment. Unfortunately, the lack of professionalism of one staff member in particular ruins the entire experience every time she is there, hence the reason for the 1 start rating. When I ask her to sign me in for my visit, she acts as though I’m asking for her first born and insists that I use my key card, which I don’t carry bc it will get lost (I don’t carry any key cards for that matter - my choice/decision). I also caught her looking at me in the locker room one day when I was getting dressed. She clearly doesn’t know what is appropriate and what isn’t. For a gym with a mind/body mission they are failing the former miserably. I go to the gym to take care of myself, and find I leave more often than not extremely annoyed, frustrated, disgusted, etc. Looking into other better options…

Fantastic experience: I've been going to mActivity for a little over a year and really love this gym. Although it seems small, the gym has everything you need and I've never had to wait to use equipment. The space is VERY clean, has a good atmosphere, and the staff is kind and professional. It's a nice, upscale gym with features that include a wet and a dry sauna.

Fantastic experience: I have been (selfishly) keeping this review to myself, because this place is truly a gem. I came to CT just for a few months to work, and I am so grateful to have found mActivity. This is by far my favorite gym EVER. The overall atmosphere is welcoming, it is spacious and clean, and well equipped with gear. The sauna and steam room are a huge plus as well. It is so clean that sometimes I choose to shower here, rather than the rental house I have stayed at! They offer a variety of classes, and I have not been disappointed with the ones I’ve taken. I could go on and on about how great this place is. I am truly sad that my time in CT is coming to an end because no gyms like this exist back home. So, THANK YOU mActivity, for being my happy place! I’d highly recommend this gym.

Fantastic experience: I loved being a member of this gym! Everyone there is so welcoming and friendly, especially Burch, Rose, and Pablo! They hold social gatherings/art openings that are catered and really fun! The place is spotless and I saw people cleaning all of the time. They have great equipment, great classes, and great customers. The space is really well organized and I felt comfortable in all spaces, including the benches for weight lifting! I recommend this gym to graduate students especially! Free coffee and a workspace made working out fit more regularly into my schedule!

Fantastic experience: this is without a doubt the best gym i’ve ever been to. it is spotless, has the best workout equipment, room to stretch, all aspects of classes and the staff is just fabulous. it’s is literally the best thing about new haven!!!!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic facility, great staff. Definitely the cleanest gym I've ever been a member of.

Fantastic experience: Used for gym for one year while in NH, very clean, great equipment including power lifting areas for more serious lifters. Saunas were clean and a godsend during winter months. Will miss this gym!

Fantastic experience: mActivity redefines what it means to go to the gym. It's not just the clean facilities, the welcoming staff, and the plethora of high quality equipment – no, it's much more than that. mActivity has turned the experience of going to the gym into a space for physical activity and mental calm. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a new gym with a strong community, vibrant space, and excellent trainers.

It's a nice, upscale gym with features that include a wet and a dry sauna.

Fantastic experience: The staff is very friendly and the classes are great! The energy is electric and I enjoy being a member/ teacher there as well

Fantastic experience: mActivity is undoubtedly the best gym there is. Clean, welcoming staff, fully-equipped - this New Haven gem is worth the trip and commitment. I cannot stress enough how much this place made my fitness journey that much more enjoyable. If you are looking for a top-rate gym with top-rate people, look no further.

Fantastic experience: Mactivity is by far the best gym around. Can't ask for a better staff. Owners are hands on and most people are on a first name basis. Mactivity provide all the necessities required to keep yourself physically fit. Steam room, sauna, freeze booth (cryo), red light therapy. They provide classes including yoga. Staff offers towels as well. If you're running late and you forgot your coffee, there is a coffee shop right next door. There is a convenient store/gas station 2 doors down also. There is a special staff person who catered to members who have diabetes. Love this place.

Fantastic experience: I love mActivity. it has everything I want plus some. Not just a full gym and classes, but a community that is fostered by the front living room/Cafe. The front room is great for mixing work with working out. My office away from office. Add to that steam and sauna as well as the new cryotherapy, it is just the complete setup. The food hall and brewery next door rounds out the complete picture. Eat/Drink and then work it off and finally relax with a sauna or cryotherapy.

Fantastic experience: mActivity is more than just one of the best gyms in Connecticut, it is a wonderful community center, an art gallery and a great place to hang out.

Fantastic experience: Colby's yoga class was excellent and we really enjoy the atmosphere of the gym and the friendly staff

Fantastic experience: I adore this gym. The vibe is clean and healthy and uplifting and I’m just happy when I’m there! Literally everything I could ever want is in this gym, the weights and machines are phenomenal and the group classes are amazing! Also all of the amenities are seriously unreal. The sauna and the steam room are both amazing but the new cryotherapy is a whole other level. I hate being cold so I was hesitant to try it but HOT DANG the energy it gives you before a workout is like endogenous prework out! mActivity is seriously my happy place!

Fantastic experience: My whole family loves this gym, the people working are friendly, is very clean and have a peaceful vibe!

Fantastic experience: I have never taken a dance class in my life and I LOVED fire and ice class. The instructed is wonderful. Her attitude is contagious. I'm going to sign up for more of her classes, and try more new things. The atmosphere at MyActivity is actually a no judgement zone. It has fosters an atmosphere that causes other patrons to be respectful, clean, and the energy is just good. Literally never been to a gym like that. The variety of equipment and fitness types is awesome. It literally covers every fitness trend/type. I just saw cryotherapy has been added which is amazing! Plus the stretching offered! It's truly holistic.

Fantastic experience: Still the best gym I have been to! The facilities are ample and clean, and the staff / trainers are knowledgable and friendly. They cultivate a wonderful atmosphere for people of all skill levels.

Fantastic experience: Cameroon is a sweet dude offering warm service and great tips to our membership here. Highly recommend this place to gym lovers.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of this gym for almost a year and it is very worth the membership fees for me. Even through COVID, they provide a nice mix of classes so that my workout never feels overly routine or stale. Additionally, between the turf, machine, rack, and free weights sections, there are adequate equipment for so many people to work out at the same time without feeling crowded. Cardio section is fine, though many of the spin bikes have dead monitors and I’ve seen quite a few treadmills be down. The instructors and classes are really good and mostly quite qualified. My favorites are jessica, latoya, julia, steph, and lisa. I wish there were more classes similar to jessicas (hour long hiit with weights/not dancing) and i wish there were some diversity in the instructors in charge of teaching the dance fitness classes (i think ive been to all 5 offered and while good, all are taught by white women). I also would love a class like that to be scheduled later in the day on the weekends for those of us who dont love waking up early on weekends. Finally, in terms of amenities, i love having fresh towels, the sauna is good, and the points rack up pretty fast if youre going a lot so you can get the inbody assessments or even do training. The showers are nice, and the mask brackets are useful

Fantastic experience: I go during the less busy hours. Which aide in the best Sauna quiet time. They have many class for the after work goers and online instructed classes as well. They also have a Physical Therapist available.

Fantastic experience: In these days of hoping to get what you paid for this place stands an unusual ode to value. It isn't cheap but affordable and one price gives full access to classes (in person and virtually), so no extra fees for them. Big enough but not so large it feels impersonal. The front porch and foyer are pleasant enough to hold small meetings and the free wifi means study space without corn muffins and triple shots ruining a great workout. Clean space, great equipment, points earned for showing up. The staff is pleasant and low key. Classes cover good options too.

Fantastic experience: The gym gets quite busy at times and it is a bit pricey. However if the membership is within your price range, the gym is well stocked and provides basically any machine or piece of equipment you could need.

Fantastic experience: Today was my first day at this gym and I already love it. The staff are very friendly especially the front desk. I like the 2 days free trail, you can check the gym and see if you like it, they have, family and monthly and annual plans. It’s very clean and organized. However, You have to park on the street but there’s a nearby parking. Ultimately I recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been to a lot of gyms in my life. Prior to this, the best rating I would give a gym would probably be 2 stars at most. Aside from my childhood gym on the west coast which was pretty sweet, this gym is a solid 5 stars. Well done. Clean. Nice staff. Good equipment. What more do need? Maybe just a couple more stair masters, but first world problems immaright?

Fantastic experience: Super nice gym commanding a high price

Fantastic experience: Terrific gym with plenty of equipment, a nice cafe, and friendly staff.

Positive experience: Excellent facility and staff. Only wish they had a traditional lying leg press machine.

Fantastic experience: I am 63 and a long-time runner and exerciser. I have belonged to a lot of gyms, but mActivity is without a doubt the best gym I have ever belonged to. A huge selection of equipment; you never have to wait for something. AND a huge selection of classes; yoga, pilates, and great "trainer specials." And for me, the absolutely unique and best thing are the 30 minute "turf classes," with a dedicated trainer urging everyone on and working on form of a large variety of exercises that lead to a fantastic "whole body" shaping by the end. Exhausting, but wonderful! The trainers and staff are great! Responsive, always available, and knowledgeable. And this gym costs much LESS than anything even approaching it in other cities. We could also discuss ample parking, wine and food bar in the front, music and literature activities, community meeting spaces.... But the gym itself is enough for five stars. mActivity sets a high standard that, I predict, other gyms will try to emulate. mActivity should patent its design! Six stars if that were available!

Fantastic experience: Best gym I’ve ever been to, hands down. It’s really more like a wellness center-gym-coffee shop-study lounge wrapped into one. Having a membership here makes me want to exercise, go to yoga, eat better, and get to bed earlier!

Fantastic experience: This gym is a masterclass in fitness centers. The equipment is state-of-the-art, the employees are all kind and wise (especially the yoga instructors!), and the space is a genuine pleasure to enter. Between the yoga/dance studio, the pilates/biking studio, the strength training equipment, the wide array of cardio machines, cafe, recreation room, bar, music lounge--there is really something for everyone. It was my greatest joy in New Haven, and I'll truly miss it!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality This is my second year of membership at my favorite gym ever! mActivity has op-notch facilities, the best and most welcoming staff, clear body-positive messaging, and so many different workout options to choose from. I'm happy to have found my fitness home here in New Haven.

Fantastic experience: Well maintained and has great ambience to sweat it out!

Fantastic experience: Really great gym with lots of amenities and equipment and functions. On top of that a great cafe and community area.

Negative experience: This company charged me $350 for five months after I canceled, and refused to find out who else they’re doing it to. Five months ago, I canceled my membership online. Well, a couple days ago I see they’ve been charging me this whole time! I called the front desk who took my information, told me this happens sometimes, and a manager would be in touch. If it’s happened to other people, there's clearly a bug in their cancelation software or business process. What have they done to fix it? More importantly, what have they done to find out who else is affected? Apparently, absolutely nothing given the situation was not detected over the last five months. After speaking with Alisha, I received no word of apology. I told her that if this has happened before, it’s likely going to happen again, and is probably happening right now to others. She told me, “it’s not my job" to find out whose cancelations weren’t processed. Alisha, that’s the bare minimum you can do. That’s the kind of response I expect out of a business who takes no responsibility for its mistakes. It IS your job if you make it your job. Do better. You too, Pablo. If you do something, do it right. Most importantly, do right by your clients. To anyone thinking of joining, best take your business elsewhere. This is business as usual from yet another gym that takes your money any way they can.

Fantastic experience: This is a unique gym. It has a comfortable and spacious community space and equipment and trainers for everyone. Want to powerlift? They have you covered. Want to do classes? They have those too. Want a comfortable atmosphere welcoming to all? Check. I have never seen so many people of varying ages, fitness levels, and exercise styles working out in one gym. This place is great and the ownership really cares about having the best equipment for all fitness types.

Fantastic experience: If there were 10 stars, mActivity would get them! Located in a former factory building, this well-outfitted gym is airy, bright, and impeccably clean. The friendly and helpful staff are ready to help you meet your fitness goals. Members have unlimited access to group classes; at least five are offered each day. There is something for everyone, whatever your age, interest, or fitness level. Those seeking a personal trainer have that option at an additional cost. This relatively new addition to the East Rock neighborhood is much more than a fitness center, offering spaces for community gatherings, a public café, and a venue for Sunday evening concerts. Curious about the name? Mindful Activity.

Fantastic experience: What a cool concept for a community space. We saw two great folk groups here. A variety of seating was available from tables and chairs to couches. We sat on a comfy couch and the acoustics we're fantastic. They have a small stage for an intimate concert experience. They had wine and beer for a donation and some people had pizza delivered. Such an amazing asset within walking distance to the Brew pub.

Fantastic experience: Such a great gym. Friendly staff, brand new equipment, a little cafe with Wi-Fi. They have all the equipment you need for powerlifting, with multiple squat racks and deadlifting areas. I've never had to wait for a rack. They have a 15 kg bar also if you need that, tons of bumper plates of various weights. The general vibe is very chill, a variety of folks working out (I.e. it isn't overrun with bros). Lots of cardio equipment, including 2 stair machines.

Fantastic experience: The best gym ever! The facility is excellent and clean and they are always adding new equipment. The staff is friendly and the classes are super fun. The price is great for all of the additional things included. This is the best gym I have been a member of in a long time!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in New Haven

Positive experience: Excellent facility with knowledgeable staff

Negative experience: An expensive gym in New Haven

Fantastic experience: Awesome.

Fantastic experience: Prettiest gym I've ever been in

Fantastic experience: Great people, great equipment, great gym!

Positive experience: Nice gym, updated equipment, Feels too crowded and more like a social club.

Fantastic experience: Amazing! Comfortable environment, friendly staff, and I love coming here every day.

Fantastic experience: the best gymnasium of all new haven certainly I love is the best

Fantastic experience: Great gym, but the folk style concerts are a bit odd to listen to when working out.

Fantastic experience: Always very clean, polite staff — great variety of weight and cardio equipment.

Fantastic experience: Clean space and plenty of machines to use. The staff is friendly and the group classes are fun and challenging.

Positive experience: Amazing sauna and steam room. Great amenities. The classes are more than decent but not perfect... Short and many attendees so two in a row. The price isn't easy to swallow but if you're looking for a community, go for it. I'll be there

Fantastic experience: Right in my neighborhood. Outstanding gym, the entrance is welcoming great food and coffee, everyone seems very friendly, great equipment, classes, everything is spotlessly clean and the staff are equally outstanding. I’ve been injured off and on for 2 years and recently began working with Kevin. He is an excellent trainer. I actually have hope that I can get back into healthy shape again. They even have a steam and sauna in the locker room!! Love this place!

Fantastic experience: For me, this is a great place to work out and simply be myself. The staff is welcoming, friendly, encouraging and professional. The decor is a cross between industrial and chic, with metal beams and accents; to cool colors and art on the walls or suspended from the ceiling as you transition to the gym. It certainly was well thought out. The facility is clean and well maintained. If there is a problem, issue or concern it is addressed quickly. The option to relax with friends or sit to read or grab a bite to eat or smoothie in a pleasant, inviting environment is a plus. I also like the fact that they have knowledgeable professionals such trainers, a nutritionist, massage therapist, physical therapist, and Pilates all under one roof and are easily accessible. There is a gym for every one, but Mactivity is my personal favorite! Check it out!

Fantastic experience: Mactivity improved my life, and the whole neighborhood in it's corner of East Rock, New Haven. It's an oasis for self renewal & enjoyment. It's also a nexus for local community organizations, like IRIS. Personally, my favorite part of the Mac experience is the lovely ambience created by virtue of live plants, plenty of air & light, and local artists pictures exhibited in monthly rotations. I have to highlight the super-friendly, well-experienced, and talented staff: Kevin M, a personal trainer with a heart of gold and a body of steel; Olivia H, a nutritionist with extraordinary insight and patience; and Pablo, a diplomatic and caring manager. There are many other beautiful people at the desk who help me feel welcome and motivated like Jake, Alexa, Whitney...I could go on! Mactivity is the best! It's easy to check it out at one of their monthly socials with free snacks and fun things like last month's silly photo booth.

Fantastic experience: I am a writer. I used to work every day at my local coffee shop at a cramped table, at the back of a dark, crowded room. Then I discovered Mactivity -- a beautiful, stylish, light-filled space with tables, couches, good coffee, and a first rate gym. Now I write, lift weights, stretch, steam, chill on the couch, read and sip my coffee. I feel like I have been upgraded from coach to first class. I can't believe I hadn't discovered this place sooner. It is worth every penny. -- Jake

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym! I actually look forward to going. All of the instructors and staff are super friendly, supportive, positive and helpful. The walls are painted cheerful colors, they have a monthly social and host other events, and a great workspace area in the front. I especially love the classes. Would highly recommend - you don’t feel like just another number and there is a great inviting community feel here!

Fantastic experience: The best gym I've ever been to and stick with more than 5 months now :) The gym staff are lovely & always welcome you with a big smile, every single time! I love availability & variety of the classes too, from yoga, pilates to kick-boxing & spin classes. They also have a cafe with healthy food options, drinks, shakes, as well as seating areas in case you want to bring over your laptop and chill. I also love that they display local artist work across the wall, they look so pretty. I highly recommend this gym, it is different than any other gym I've been to.

Fantastic experience: Great place.

Fantastic experience: Great Gym!
