Island Fitness

Fantastic experience: Joined during an extended stay on Bainbridge Island and just love it! Staff are open, friendly and helpful, there’s tons of equipment (and enough cardio machines - yay!), and plenty of room to stretch out and do any floor work you need. It’s SUPER clean, and the vibe is friendly. Love the steam room in the locker room! A great motivator to get me in - I get to steam after. My massage the other day was also fantastic. Thanks Island Fitness!

Fantastic experience: Extraordinary gym with great heart. Weights, in person and virtual classes (loving Body Pump), machines, training, steam room, all for an affordable price (cost of mental and physical health=priceless for sure) Convenient location - combine with downtown errands or on the way to the ferry for commuters. They have worked so hard to provide an impeccably clean and safe environment. And the staff is endlessly kind and supportive even to a cheerful gym scrub like me. So very grateful for Alexa and Michael Rosenthal who saw the potential in and saved this old bowling alley. You’ll be so glad you came. I am never sorry on the way home.

Positive experience: Great place to workout with a ton of really nice equipment. Very clean and well maintained as well. Only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because all the older white members stared at me and were obviously wondering why I was there, and it was incredibly unwelcoming. Loosen up y’all.

Fantastic experience: Great trainer Quinton, spacious facility with courteous clients and staff.

Fantastic experience: Top notch experience! Quentin is an awesome trainer! Great equipment as well!

Fantastic experience: A great place to workout

Fantastic experience: I have worked with personal trainer, Quinton Agosta, for the past four years, both on rehab for two knee surgeries and for strength and flexibility, with the ultimate goal of being able to play basketball again. Several weeks ago, I was able to play in a basketball tournament in which my team qualified for the Senior National Games next year and in which I received MVP. I owe so much to Quinton: his workout plan met me where I was, targeted specific muscle groups for basketball, and made me stronger and more balanced overall. He pushed and encouraged me when I needed it. His knows his stuff and is an outstanding personal trainer for all kinds of fitness levels. (And I can also hike, bike, and cross-country ski.) I am a fan.

Fantastic experience: Sally provided one of the best massages I have ever experienced! It was wonderful. I highly recommend Island Fitness for massages. And this- in addition to their fitness facility, training staff, and general staff, Island Fitness is a comprehensive perfect gym to belong to. I love it.

Fantastic experience: I love Island Fitness in Bainbridge Island! This gym is a safe, clean and supportive environment to meet your fitness goals. I especially love the group fitness classes. There are many to choose from with amazing instructors. My favorites are Qigong and Yoga with Patricia, Yoga with Kayla, Zumba with Josh, and Barre with Tina. I can’t believe the level of excellence in teaching at such an affordable small gym. I’ve paid so much more in the past for far less. Run, walk, dance, or downward dog your way to this gym. You won’t regret it.

Fantastic experience: Island Fitness is one more reason to love living on Bainbridge. Every employee is helpful, knowledgeable and polite. Everybody truly cares. This is not to say that anybody is too nosy. If you prefer to workout in solitude, nobody will bother you. However, if you need/want help, you are surrounded by friendly, helpful people. The equipment is high-quality and there is an excellent, large selection of equipment. There's never any waiting in line. Another great thing is the all-inclusive pricing. A fair monthly fee includes access to the gym, lots of great fitness classes and other benefits. Fitness classes (such as spin and yoga) are included with the monthly gym membership, making it a fantastic deal! (Free parking is another perk.) There is space available in the classes, often with short notice. And the instructors in these classes are great. You can freely explore different exercise/training techniques. You might be shocked by what you find. (I love my Barre Hello class!) They have well trained, professional trainers. (Monthly membership also includes some free sessions with them!) Watching the trainers work with seniors is amazing. A beautiful demonstration of patience and caring.

Fantastic experience: The gym has a great pilates offering. Davi's pilates class is a must-try. Suitable for beginners to all levels. Davi brings expertise, warmth and encouragement to every class. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Staff are super friendly, welcoming, and inclusive. Also, facilities are clean and well organized.

Fantastic experience: I've always been impressed with the crew at Island Fitness. Emy has been my masseuse for awhile and she is amazing. Plus the rest of the crew that I have encountered has been super friendly and helpful.

Fantastic experience: I need to give a huge shout out to trainer, Diane P. She helped me prepare for my first multi day trek in Patagonia recently. She worked with me to give me a program that worked with my schedule, kept it interesting over multiple months and also guided me to local hikes as part of my training. As a hiker herself, Diane was amazing at helping me prepare in so many ways including pack weight, footwear, diet, strength, cardio and endurance. I am so grateful for her and her expertise. I also appreciate her constant awareness around keeping me healthy as I trained. Her training regimen allowed me to enjoy an amazing trip. I highly recommend Diane.

Fantastic experience: We are so grateful to Nick for his help assessing and addressing my teenage daughter’s muscle and joint imbalances. He is super professional, knowledgeable, and personable!

Fantastic experience: I love the yoga and Pilates classes and instructors. Wonderful!!!

Fantastic experience: First time massage at Island Fitness. Appreciate Tony's expertise and professionalism.

Fantastic experience: Excellent staff and a diversity of classes that are worth the membership alone.

Fantastic experience: island fitness has great pilates instructors!

Fantastic experience: A few months ago, I began searching on Bainbridge and beyond for a gym with treadmills that will go above the standard 12% incline. I was very excited to learn my local gym, Island Fitness carries Free Motion trainers that go to an astounding 30% so I signed up immediately. No other local gyms carry this type of equipment and it’s perfect for prepping for mountain races, hikes in the Olympics, and overall fitness. As someone who likes to track mileage, vertical gain and HR their treadmills have been an absolute game changer. The iFit compatibility can upload data to the Garmin and/or Strava platforms so I can track my progress as I go. More importantly, the treadmills have jumpstarted my training and enabled me to be much more efficient with my time. It’s just not practical or feasible for me to drive to the mountains every day when I can get a similar stimulus from their incline trainers plus have time left over for strength work. Thank you, Island Fitness!!!

Fantastic experience: Music and joy is very motivating. Yay zumba and spin classes! In person feels good, so am grateful for the upgraded air system.

Fantastic experience: I enjoy the atmosphere of the gym and the trainers are pleasant and engaging.

Fantastic experience: For me; perfect in every way!...well, ok, I do have one suggestion that I would find helpful re: the TVs. It has to do with the closed caption banner that runs across the bottom of most screens. I believe it is possible to relocate the banner placement to a different part of the TV screen, so as not to interfere with the programs' frequent banners. Maybe at the top of the screen? Thanks for considering! C.

Fantastic experience: Equipment is up to date and we'll maintained. The staff is where this place earns the excellent from me. Helpful, informative, driven, inspiring, reliable, and friendly. If I end up moving here, this is the gym for me. NOTE: yes, I am only a guest. However, when I am here I frequent this gym with my significant other and this is by far my favorite gym when I travel.

Fantastic experience: There has never been a time since the gym originally opened that I have not felt fully considered in the way that every aspect of the gym is taken care of - especially its members.

Fantastic experience: Great environment, big selection of equipment, knowledgeable trainers, fun fitness class, feels safe despite Covid and other germs!

Positive experience: Cardio machines and a wide range of well maintained weight machines. No courts or spa stuff but for strength training it's the best I've found on the island.

Negative experience: The gym is good and the employees are friendly and unpretentious. I would give 5 stars except for the fact that out of the 10 TVs they have on, 10 of them are showing either FOX, CNN, MSNBC, or other news channels. I am demotivated from using any cardio machine since they all face those TVs. It is a constant stream of depressing and unsettling sensationalist news that promotes fear, hate, division, and anxiety. It really affects my exercise experience. I leave the gym feeling the world is a terrible place and is going to end any moment from now. That's not why I go to the gym. The reason why I go to the gym is to work on my pecs and BMI, and news channels make me feel like I should stay home, eat a family-size bag of Cheetos, and fall asleep with my hands and mouth covered in orange dust.

Fantastic experience: The best in all categories!

Fantastic experience: Sara is a highly skilled trainer who has helped me overcome chronic back pain.

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Super clean, awesome staff(Michael is the best!), great equipment!

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, good services. All in all awesome place to workout.

Fantastic experience: I worked with Gavin on an evaluation of muscle pattern function, and he listened with a calm empathy and seemed to be very thorough, getting on the floor to compare my foot positioning. He didn’t rush me and I felt like he genuinely cared to make sense of the puzzle that is my back pain.

Fantastic experience: Loretta and Quinton, trainers at Island Fitness, have made such a positive impact on our family's life and overall well-being. My family and I made the decision in November 2021, to summit Mt. Saint Helens and Mt. Adams in 2022 for my fiftieth birthday. Our thirteen year old son began strength training with Quinton and, taking the glowing recommendation from a close friend, I began training with Loretta. This was in December 2021. It is now late March 2022 and our transformation thus far is significant. Quinton and Loretta assessed asymmetrical strength and both large and fine muscle function and have worked with us to create balance and core strength. Quinton is thoughtful, engaged and highly experienced with the youth population. Loretta has helped me recover from and build strength after two injuries last year. She’s my hero. My entire family is now reengaged with the backcountry, strapping on packs every weekend for our training hikes. I can’t wait to summit Mt. Adams in July, thanks to the guidance and advocacy of Quinton and Loretta. Stacy Marshall Founder, Owen’s Playground co-Owner, Grounds for Change Coffee Roastery

Fantastic experience: Been going here for 15 years. A good mix of up to date machines and free weights. In an old bowling alley, still has the old lanes as floors in some spots. Local owned and operated be friendly people who know what they're doing. Not a large chain place by far. Clean facilities, great equipment, friendly staff. Oh yeah, and trainers and classes too if you wish. Pilates as well. I love working out here.

Fantastic experience: Hands down the nicest staff and management of any gym I've been to. Wonderful facility with everything I could need for a great workout.

Positive experience: It's fine, gets the job done.

Fantastic experience: Sherry 's yoga classes are always varied, geared to individual needs, include full body exercise and stretching; and are fun!

Fantastic experience: Spin class works very well in virtual format. Instructor Jackie is awesome. Well planned workout and great music.

Fantastic experience: Michael and Alexa have always been ahead of the curve keeping our gym leaders in every way.......equipment, trainers, classes, support staff. And now......the pandemic, they have stepped up to improve every possible protection for all of us. And the Zoom classes have kept many of us healthy and happy during this last year. They deserve highest marks possible. And love for all they give us. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: It’s got everything. Very clean.

Fantastic experience: Great staff. Great environment. I have been coming to Island Fitness for years. The facility is well maintained, staff are very friendly and every facet of their business is done with care and professionalism. I have utilized most of their offerings. Tony Held is a fantastic massage therapist, Gavin DeWitt is a great personal trainer, and the equipment and cleanliness can't be beat.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, I have been training here for about a month. Location is convenient since I work in Seattle and come here after I get off ferry. Staff is friendly, customer service is great, and facility is nice. Good range of equipment/cardio pieces and weight room is great. Lots of knowledgeable people and vibe is friendly. Just walk in and ask for a tour if you want to check it out!

Fantastic experience: great staff - knowledgeable, friendly, and responsible. The facility is spotless and kept that way by the attentive staff. The gym has everything you need to stay in shape.

Fantastic experience: Island Fitness is the most inclusive and friendly gym I've ever been to! I love taking the classes offered. The Body pump and CKBC with Steven Joyner are two of my favorites! He keeps the class motivated and laughing. Other members are very friendly and supportive and the front desk is always helpful, funny, and friendly. This is the best continued streak of exercise I've had in years (5 months straight)! Even through the temporary closure due to Covid-19 many instructors are offering free classes through zoom online! I've really been enjoying Yoga with Sherry Eckert. She is a great instructor! Thank you Island Fitness! I can't wait until you open again! -Kaylee

Fantastic experience: Because in the eight years I've lived here your Gym has always been a 10 everyone's always nice it's always been clean and very calming even though I only get to come 2 days a week I look forward to my two days a week.

Fantastic experience: Amazingly friendly staff. Knowledgable trainers who met my specific training needs. Clean facility and super convenient. Good value for membership cost.

Fantastic experience: When everything else in our world is upside down right now, it's nice to be able to have quiet meditation with Alexa, yoga with Sherry and Patricia and try new classes with all of the other great Island Fitness instructors! Thank you for being there for your Island Fitness family.

Fantastic experience: Island Fitness hires wonderful people! My experience is limited to yoga teachers and the administrative and reception staff. The teachers all have different styles, but they are all extremely knowledgeable and I enjoy the variety. I have had only positive experiences with the administrative and front desk staff. On top of that, the club is well maintained and clean.

Fantastic experience: Good place to work out

Fantastic experience: Best Pilates instruction by master Jordan W. I have Ever experienced! This guy knows what he is teaching. I liked that I had the best workout of my life and I did really fun moves. I was inspired by his knowledge of cutting edge fitness information. I came away feeling fit and ready to begin this new fitness adventure. Thank you Jordan. Your video is right on too! I recommend Pilates at Island Fitness if you want to feel really good in your body

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, great equipment, clean, updated, constant improvements and plenty of classes. Been going to gyms for years and this place is the best.

Fantastic experience: Super friendly staff, generous amounts of equipment, can get busy but not overcrowded. Highly reccomend!

Positive experience: Good sized gym. Daily rate a bit expensive. Good choices of equipment, multiple areas.

Fantastic experience: Love the staff. They really understand the unique needs, abilities and fitness goals of their clients. A welcoming atmosphere for all ages and athletic abilities.

Fantastic experience: Update August 2024 I continue to love Island Fitness because of Michael and Alexa's outstanding management of the facility and the staff. Clean and efficient are understatements of the care I find when entering Island Fitness. The staff is top notch and their level of training is very high. Because of their dedication, they offer the best fitness no matter the age of the person or condition of their client. I've been lucky to be a member for almost two decades and hope to continue with Island Fitness into the future. Update 2018 Island Fitness is a great place to work out. Although I love to complain that my trainer, Loretta, is torturing me, she is, in fact, working to keep me strong. Having a personal trainer is very important so that I exercise correctly without causing myself any injury. I always look forward to my massage therapy with Carol to finish off the week. Island Fitness is a perfect place to work out, have a steam or massage or just visit with old friends before one of the many free classes. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and the trainers are top notch. They are able to work with newbies and serious bodybuilders. I have no reservations recommending Island Fitness. Update 2017 My wife, Leona, and I were at Island Fitness on January 2nd, when she had a cerebellar stroke. Because of the quick response by trainer and massage therapist, Carol O’Neill, in calling 911, a potentially life-threatening situation was avoided. I am forever grateful for the concern shown by owners, Alexa and Michael Rosenthal, for Leona’s welfare, and for our personal trainer, Loretta Stanton’s continuing efforts to help restore Leona’s balance and confidence. Looking at her today, you’d never know she had a stroke just weeks ago. The care and professionalism of the owners and personnel of Island Fitness team to their members is immeasurable.

Fantastic experience: I am motivated to exercise at Island-Fitness. The friendly camaraderie in the classes is uplifting, the instructors are personally attentive, the staff is extra helpful, and gym temperatures are refreshing!

Fantastic experience: This is a wonderful local gym. It's great for early risers, the staff are extremely nice and accommodating, and it has all the amenities you would expect from a larger chain in Seattle. I have been going here for over three years and I highly recommend it!

Fantastic experience: Island Fitness on Bainbridge Island is a health resource for the whole community, including senior citizens and persons with physicial impairments who aspire to optimize fitness. We are warmly welcomed, encouraged, and inspired by those in their physical prime (never disparaged). Working with a personal trainer, I am gradually building strength, unexpected for someone diagnosed with a rare muscle-wasting disease.

Fantastic experience: Tanya is a gifted NIA instructor - facilitator - partner! She has a playful, nurturing spirit which she brings to every class. One can always rely on a class filled with exploration and delight. Tanya promotes fellowship among her partners in this dance. Each class begins and ends with her request that we be intentional in the care of our mind, body and soul. The life lessons we experience with her in the sacred space she creates can be relied upon to spill out into our day to day AND thus impacting not only ourselves but a much bigger circle in and outside our world! That’s pretty amazing! From the start I felt Tanya’s open mind and kind energy - something I sorely needed in the messiness of my life. Her calm, open personality continues to create an atmosphere of acceptance, freedom and yes fun for all of us! Her bright light is contributing to many healing journeys! Tanya has a way of infusing classic NIA technique with her unique style while promoting “your way” and “listen to your body”. I am always filled to the point of overflowing with positive energy and simply feeling good - and always, always wanting to come back for more. Tanya’s classes are truly about listening and responding to the needs of your mind and body. She so joyfully encourages self-expression and makes a connection with every person in class. I have had so many conversations with those who have participated in a class with me who feel as I do - that NIA has touched their lives outside the class setting: feel more open to new experiences, more fulfilled, less stressed and most importantly start and end each day with more warmth, gratitude and joy! Three cheers for Tanya Agnew - the best of them all! What a grand and glorious day - the day she came into the class as a substitute teacher at Island Fitness Center! A new day has dawned with the magic of Tanya and NIA!

Fantastic experience: Best Fitness Center on BI. I just love the classes at Island Fitness. Bodypump is the best. I Love all the instructors!

Fantastic experience: Update August 2024 I love the Challenges created by Island Fitness and this year is no exception! Requiring a yoga class as part of the Olympics Bingo Challenge, I decided to attend Sherry's Monday night yoga class and it was wonderful! Sherry directs her class in a way that anyone, at any level, can feel comfortable whether a beginner or long-time yoga practitioner. After only one class with all the relaxing breathing and stretching, I felt my posture significantly improve and I even felt taller! Update 2018 I like challenges when I work out. Whether it’s the plank or wall sit challenge, the Summer Sizzle, or rowing two half-marathons this year (21,097 meters each) on the indoor erg, I can always count on my trainer, Loretta, and nutritionist, Alexa, to get me through the work that needs to be done. I love Island Fitness because it isn’t a one-size-fits-all gym. My programs are designed especially for me so that, if I do the necessary work, I am successful, and, in addition, Zumba with Josh is terrific! Update 2017 On January 2nd, while at Island Fitness, I suffered a cerebellar stroke. I didn’t know it at the time because I had no paralysis, speech or visual impairment -- what I thought of as “typical” stroke symptoms. I experienced extreme dizziness, nausea and an inability to walk – all affecting my balance controlled by the cerebellum. Thankful for the kindness of Oly Gallagher (Zumba instructor), Douglas (front desk) and Barbara and Suzanne from the Zumba class, and the quick response by Carol O’Neill (Personal Trainer and Massage Therapist), paramedics were called and I was eventually taken to Harrison Hospital. Within two days, I was transferred to Swedish Medical Rehab Facility and sent home on Sunday, January 8th. The physical and occupational therapists were amazed at my progress and saw no reason to keep me any longer. I, as well as the therapists, attribute my extraordinarily quick recovery to Loretta Stanton, my personal trainer at Island Fitness. For years, she has focused on, and emphasized, the importance of balance in our training sessions especially as I’ve gotten older (now 65). In less than two days, I was able to walk unassisted. If you saw me, you’d never know I had a stroke just a few weeks ago. I am forever grateful to Island Fitness and, particularly, Loretta, for her dedication, knowledge and commitment to the health and well-being of her clients. 2016: Island Fitness is a great place to workout. The owners, Alexa and Michael, are fantastic business people. They know how to treat their clients. I've participated in lots of activities offered over the many years, including cycling, TRX and zumba - teachers are well-trained and lots of fun. I've been with a fantastic personal trainer, Loretta, for years (as well as a year with Jennie). Alexa, who does nutrition counseling, is both supportive and knowledgeable. It's amazing how little we know about what we eat! With all the help I receive from the great people at Island Fitness, I'm looking forward to many more years at Island Fitness to continue a healthy lifestyle.

Fantastic experience: My family and I have been members of Island Fitness Bainbridge for over six years. We have enjoyed many of the classes, including Yoga, Body Pump, and Kickboxing. We have all worked with personal trainers and greatly benefitted from their expertise. I especialy enjoy the variety of weights and exercise machines.

Fantastic experience: Island fitness is a wonderful local gym, that I really enjoy! They offer a huge variety of classes. The staff and instructors are all so kind and helpful! I highly recommend joining this wonderful community!

Fantastic experience: Island Fitness is a wonderful gym with caring and friendly staff and great machines. I've been going there for years, go almost every day and attribute my good health (at 91) to these workouts.›

Fantastic experience: There's a reason Island Fitness keeps getting voted best of Bainbridge!! The staff is so caring, communicative, always goes above and beyond. The equipment is well maintained, there are TONS of amazing classes to choose from, and the instructors and trainers are all incredibly talented and know just how to put you at ease and help you feel your best.

Fantastic experience: Jordan is a great patient and inspirational trainer

Positive experience: Solid local gym. Group classes, small group specialized classes (which require added fees), massage, climbers, steppers, aerobic machines, and readily available trainers.

Positive experience: Renae Ciotti McCloud leads the BEST Step Jam class ever here on Wednesdays at noon. She is a uniquely gifted step instructor and they are lucky to have her. Love that class. She used to teach it MWF at noon in Seattle and that was a perfect way to stay fit and engaged in an exercise routine. Wish they’d offer it 3x a week at Island Fitness, or at least twice.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym. They work to meet everyone's needs and challenges.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful friendly staff

Positive experience: Great facility and people

Fantastic experience: Wide selection of equipment, classes and personal trainers

Fantastic experience: Nice environment!!!

Fantastic experience: It's not the biggest gym but it gets the job done. Towel service included though which is nice. Cardio area can get busy but nothing you can't handle though. It's relatively inexpensive and every is really nice!

Fantastic experience: I have been an employee at island fitness since April 2016. I can honestly say this has been one of my favorite places to work. The rest of the staff really make you feel like your part of a family. They really care about your overall health and well being.

Fantastic experience: Island Fitness has an incredible line up of staff, who pride themselves on helping the individual meet their fitness and lifestyle goals. I've enjoyed being a member for the last decade, attending many of the diverse group fitness classes that are included in the membership; participating in small groups; and working one-on-one with highly-trained cutting edge trainers, who are clearly experts in their field! And, their commitment continues beyond the walls of the gym, as they practice what they preach by their ongoing involvement to the community! I feel welcomed each time I come in the door, and leave happy I attended to my health that day.

Fantastic experience: I'm a pretty new member (3 months) and it's been too long since I've had a workout routine. The staff at Island Fitness is extremely welcoming, knowledgeable and supportive. I've always been greeted with a smile and kind words from the staff. Great equipment and facility, not overly crowded and convenient location. Personal trainer Jordan has helped me get back into a routine that works with my busy schedule. Other trainers have also stopped to encourage me and help with technique of they saw something.

Fantastic experience: I just love this gym. It is filled with good people who love their community and like a great workout to boot. You'll find a family here. Check out Jackie's spin class if you like upbeat music and a good sweat.

Fantastic experience: Island fitness has the best staff, great equipment, and very friendly atmosphere. They provide state of the art equipment, seminars, they offer private and non private classes. I love Kat Polo's kettle bell work.

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, good class selection--even for M-F commuters. Plenty of equipment that is well maintained. Something for everyone! Locker rooms are spacious and clean and equipped with a nice hot steam room.

Fantastic experience: Island Fitness has a great staff, clean facilities, and fun classes! I have been taking Pilates with trainer Jordan Wagner and found my running became faster and my core stronger! Highly recommend his classes!

Fantastic experience: I love Island Fitness! The staff is friendly and helpful. The classes are fun and the trainers make sure the routines work for you.

Fantastic experience: Island Fitness is a gym where knowledgeable staff, good equipment, a wide selection of classes, terrific massage therapy and many thoughtful amenities come together to make it easy and enjoyable to work out. I've never been able to stick with a gym membership until I started coming here last Fall. And the app is super convenient for scheduling classes and services. I may finally be able to incorporate more exercise and wellness into my regular schedule, thanks to these fine folks!

Fantastic experience: Island Fitness is fantastic. The gym is spacious and has all the equipment everyone needs - from high school and college athletes to yoga. There are multiple class rooms, private trainers, and massage therapists. They even open up for people to use showers when the power goes out! An unbelievable gem and community staple of Bainbridge Island. I love seeing and knowing everyone and making it a 3 time a week habit is easy!

Fantastic experience: My wife Patti and I are your first Silver Sneakers guests from Colorado. We were very impressed with the quality of your facility and your wonderful staff. Thank you for letting us work out. Warm regards, John Richard Martinez

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Upbeat staff who are approachable and always ready to help. Excellent selection of machines that are all high quality and well maintained. I dont care for gyms that just have a room crammed with 50 treadmills personally, so I really appreciate the selection at Island Fitness. It's an interesting dynamic layout with a central studio, a stretching area, a spin room and a complete free weights area. Every strength training machine you could wish for too! I haven't had a massage yet, but it's awesome to know it's readily available for me to take advantage of. I love going to this gym!

Fantastic experience: I love coming to Island Fitness. There are great classes, lively senior fitness, a fun group of fellow exercisers, all in a very clean, attractive, and well-appointed club. The machines and equipment are well maintained, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Coming to Island Fitness makes working out fun. A very positive experience.

Fantastic experience: I joined Island Fitness 6 years ago when I moved to Bainbridge Island. I was looking for something close to where I now live, and offered a reasonable schedule and variety of group classes to choose from. I have to confess that I don’t have a strong interest in body building or athletic endeavors, so I was mostly looking for a way to keep healthy. The classes that best fit what I was doing before turned out to be a weight lifting program set to music, call “Group Power”. I had never seriously lifted weights before, and I never would have considered it without this program—I find weight lifting and working out on machines by myself very boring! I’ve kept the routine since then, and I’m now in the best condition I have ever been. Being retired helps me schedule my life around the classes, but I think it’s worth it! I didn’t join Island Fitness with the expectation of wanting or needing services from their trainers, but I was very wrong. The owners have made a considerable investment in “Ortho Kinetics” which is essentially a program which analyzes your body motions and compensating tendencies. With this information you can work with a trainer to design a program to help correct these tendencies. It’s the next best thing you can do for your body short of seeing a physical therapist! It turns out that I had been using shoulder muscles and leg muscles incorrectly, and by paying attention to what I should be using for certain motions, I was able to eliminate shoulder strains and a sciatic leg pain. I can recommend Jillian Batemen and Ann New if you can fit into their schedules. The gym isn’t very large compared to say a “Gold’s Gym” but I haven’t experienced a lot of overcrowding. The owners maintain the facility extremely well, and have regularly upgraded the equipment and facilities since I’ve been a member. The only complaint I have is that six months ago they switched their “Group Power” program to “Body Pump”, a similar weight lifting program but the music isn’t as good, the programs don’t fit it as well, and the exercises are not as creative. I understand they did this because many more gyms use “Body Pump” and it’s easier to find instructors. There are many ways, both more expensive and less, that you could exercise and maintain a healthy level of activity. All I can say is that Island Fitness’ programs work for me, and I find it well worth the money!

Fantastic experience: We joined a little over a month ago and we couldn't be happier! They have everything we need and an incredibly helpful, friendly staff. They gave us a local business owner discount and even extended a promotion to save us money on our joining fees! We would highly recommend this gym to anyone!
