RWJ Fitness & Wellness Center

Fantastic experience: great trainers, clean, friendly people

Fantastic experience: I am a member of one of their other centers. Sometimes I come here as my work takes me away from central and north parts of the state. They have beautiful locker rooms like the other locations. One thing I really like is that the center is very clean and neat - on fitness floor, studios, front desk, and aquatics area. I'm happy to come here when I can!

Fantastic experience: A previous reviewer is totally incorrect. It's Absolutely NOT $1,000 A YEAR to belong to the RWJohnson gyms. Joining all of them at once is a one-time fee, and much less than $1,000 to pay EVER. The truth is, this is one of the very best bargains in my life. Monthly fees are very reasonable. I have used weight loss doctors in the past. NOT ONE of those doctors helped me finally reach my goals like RWJ Fitness & Wellness Centers have. The nurse and trainer have taken a real interest in my progress. I've lost over eighty pounds since joining this gym and maintained them. Classes are strong and intense. Facilities are cleaner than competitors. All the RWJohnson gyms are well-designed and organized. I've been very impressed and hope the gyms continue to be maintained as they are now. Thank you to all who make the RWJohnson gyms specially great. I enjoy them for as much as I have time.

Fantastic experience: I LOVE the classes at this gym. Vin and Charlie are probably my favorite instructors because they are dancers, but there are over 200 classes a week and there is definitely something for everyone. I'm in my late twenties and used to dance when I was younger, and HANDS DOWN, Vin is the BEST Zumba instructor I've EVER taken - I've seen instructors in the area and NO ONE can move like her. Well worth it if you take her Zumba class... Also, I never feel "uncomfortable" here (for those of you who know what I mean); it's definitely a friendlier gym than some of the others I've been a part of over the years. Hands down, one of if not the best gym in the area.

Fantastic experience: What a great center! For the longest time I wanted to get back into shape but never had the motivation to do so. With the help of their trainers I was able to lose my spare tire and now I am running a marathon in November!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member for years on and off with the frequency with which I actually go. I like doing a combination of activities and have tried all different types of classes from the the dance ones, to the hard core fitness, to yoga, to even the ones in the pool. My suggestion is try different classes with different instructors to find the best fit. Even if you aren't keen on the specific instructor in the class you can find ways to make the class work for you. I like the improvements they have made to the layout of the floor. the floor space used to be crammed to the corner, but you can be more creative about floor space. Myself and a friend have even used the corner by the rowing machines to do floor activities. and the more open floor plan allows trainers to spreadout and not chew up the same floor space. Pool tends to make me itchy with the high level of chlorine but I just deal with it. I'm just happy to have the regular pool the therapy pool and the hot tub. Don't be intimidated by older people in the pool classes, you can always make the activities harder or easier for your need. Thought I'd put in a word about childcare. Don't expect it to be an organized class for your child, but I've had my children there since they were 6 months old and the same staff sticks around and cares for the kids. Older children may be bored but my 5 and 3 year old still enjoy going and seeing the same kids and staff month after month. I appreciate that the fee was rolled into the monthly membership as I had to pay additional for the service years ago. I also found out childcare could be used while going to the spa which was well worth it to me when you need that extra sanity and don't have someone to watch the kids. Just let the staff know where you are. Parking is always an issue but hey I figure if I'm going to workout then the few extra feet I have to walk is really not that big of a deal. If you can time getting in 10 minutes after the hour when people have just finished classes parking can be easier to find.

Fantastic experience: Awesome place with great amenities! The value is great. Plenty of machines, equipment, and classes. Also, very clean locker room.

Fantastic experience: Very good value for cost to be a member !

Fantastic experience: This is the best bang for your buck you will ever get!! I’m so spoiled here. I tried taking an Orange Theory Fitness class and was appalled at the lack of individualized, one-on-one attention I got. Don’t waste your money going anywhere else. The fitness classes here are top tier. They feel more like small group fitness classes (which, I’ve paid $300 a month in the past at Moxie for) and sometimes they even feel like personal training sessions. All the instructors there care so much about making you feel comfortable, encouraging you, and showing you good form. I cancelled my membership in 2010 and reinstated it in 2021 with zero problems. No hassles no hidden fees. They almost made too easy to leave. (My Planet fitness membership however, was a nightmare to cancel. Do not recommend.) I started my fitness journey at RWJ in November of 2021 and I’ve come so far!! I can’t say enough things about this gym and all the staff!

Fantastic experience: Seriously nice.

Fantastic experience: We love this gym! Great value for the money, variety of group classes, aquatic center, sauna, steam room, daycare. Personal training is amazing too. It is expensive, but absolutely worth it! So far no complaints at all! Everyone is nice and helpful. My trainer Magda is supportive and keeps workouts interesting (loved the session in the pool) Overall, 5+ stars!

Fantastic experience: TERRIFIC YOGA (Joe) AND GYM (AIDIS) INSTRUCTORS! And the receptionist/Front desk Staff are so patient and knowledgeable! Kudos to Patti, the coordinator of the Wellness Education Program...Superb leadership and always a variety of courses!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism

Fantastic experience: I would like to give a BIG SHOUT OUT TO MARGIE in physical therapy. If it was not for her, I wouldn't have the mobility that I have today. She helped me with my back problems so much that I can actually deal with it and she also helped me get full mobility out of my hip replacement which was done by Hari Bezwada who is a genius!!! So I would like to thank Robert wood Johnson wellness and fitness center for having such great people as Margie who is a blessing to me. Love her!!!

Fantastic experience: The trainers are always super friendly and help keep the place as clean as possible. The place is very spacious and affordable. I recommend!!

Positive experience: Great facilities. Much better than other alternatives such as Golds Gym or Jersey Strong. Though much more expensive. Can be pretty busy at times.

Fantastic experience: Ryan is a great swimming instructor! She takes time to teach from fundamentals to very professional strokes. My son started with Ryan as a 4 year old, now 5 years later, he is on the Swim Team! Highly recommended !!!

Fantastic experience: I am a patient here at the O.T. department. My therapist is H and he is very knowledgeable, caring, and is always going the extra mile to help with my needs. If 6 stars were on this, I would give H this rating !

Fantastic experience: Great facility. Whether your interest is in weight training or aerobics, there's something here to meet your needs. Being a member, also provided assistance with my hip replacement. The trainers designed presurgical routines for leg strengthening & are presently addressing post surgery strengthening & balance issues. All of this produces a much smoother transition to this operation. Thanks to all, for your continued help!

Fantastic experience: Went for an Opticians CEU event in one of the facilities meeting room. Clean, great speaker acoustics. The thereay part of the facility looked to be also very clean, spacious and inviting also.

Fantastic experience: I am a Doctor and I have referred many patients over the years to RWJ Fitness & Wellness Center. They were all very pleased with the comprehensive services offered. As a physician I highly recommend RWJ Fitness & Wellness Center.

Fantastic experience: Great coaches, excellent advisors and tons of friends ..not to mention the sauna,steam and jacuzzi

Fantastic experience: My Speech-Language Pathologist, Inessa, is a very caring therapist who has helped me with her vast knowledge and her understanding way. Along with Katie, I receive 5 star treatment....Thank you !

Fantastic experience: I have been fortunate to have Lisa Timberlake as my trainer for the past six months. Lisa is professional, knowledgeable, and is focused in helping me achieve my goals and makes every session challenging. She encourages and motivates me to do better and yet she knows what my limits are and how far she can push them. I am truly thankful she is my trainer and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a serious trainer dedicated to her profession and her clients. Hal Panzer

Fantastic experience: This review is for the spin and yoga instructors. The spin instructors do a great job motivating me with their words and choice of music. I look forward to classes. Due to my work schedule, I generally attend classes taught by Shaun, who also brings in humor to make working out FUN as well. I started going to yoga in the past year and I am much better to cope with everyday stress. I am typically able to attend classes by Joe and Marzena, with Vickie sometimes covering. I enjoy the insight they provide, the time and space to quiet the noise of daily life, and practical suggestions to continue to provide myself when I leave the yoga studio. They are all fun and make yoga a time to look forward to each day. Thank you !!!

Fantastic experience: I use the pool and love it

Fantastic experience: Twice a week l go to the Rehab center here and love it. The staff are always kind and funny, and are always available to answer my questions. The facility is state of the art. I would definitely recommend this to anyone I know.

Fantastic experience: My review is strictly for all the instructors. They've installed a "robot voice" at check-in which in my opinion has made the front desk less responsive to members. However, every class I take has an outstanding instructor. And the pool area is a very big reason why I'm there.

Fantastic experience: Excellent Gym with good trainers and equipments. Cleanliness is astonishing.

Fantastic experience: Pretty good gym. I've been coming here for over a year. The staff is friendly although sometimes they have no idea what's going on.

Fantastic experience: My PT/ Cert. MDT is Cynthia Chernyavsky she is very professional, respectful, kind and carrying with her patients. I can say I feel the difference after I get my PT with her I see the improvements and relief in my self, she can really get to main area that is affecting you promptly. Thanks Cynthia for making feel better and more confident. God bless her hands. My PT are in 3100 Quakerbridge Rd. Hamilton NJ 08619

Fantastic experience: Fantastic price if you're a NB resident. Front Desk can be snippy. I know yesterday 1/08/17 it felt like I was annoying the woman at the desk trying to set up a consultation for my parents but hey, we all have our bad days. Overall great gym, happy here.

Fantastic experience: The highlight of my week is going to the body Combat class on Wednesday morning with Christina and Frank! They are they best instructors I've ever encountered. I get a great workout and they are so fun to watch and listen to. They're great!

Fantastic experience: Super Clean, Always Machines available and Great selection of classes! New and updated equipment and spa and pool area is great. You truly get what you pay for with your membership here. Yoga with Joe is AWESOME!!!!
