Where Locals Work Out: Best [15] Gyms and Fitness Centers in Tacoma, WA

Gene Romaine Great resource for seniors. They have an amazing pool, with a raging river section. Also, they have a senior hub which has free tea and coffee, as well as free lunch for folks over 65, and they have a well maintained free pool table in the senior hub. The staff are dedicated and friendly.

Jeffrey Froome If you are looking for a body positive, workout positive, every-type-of-person-positive place to move your bones - look no further than Ascent Fitness. The coaches and support staff here make me feel amazing, every workout, every session! Youll thank yourself for signing up!

elizabeth lane Dropped in from SLC. Such a beautiful gym. So clean and had everything we needed and more. Highly recommend!

Kate Alexander Just got back from a workout with my wonderful personal trainer, Matt. This facility has a great gym, indoor pickleball courts, many activities for all ages, and a nice indoor pool. Same scenario today and the only change at this facility seems to be at the front desk where they dont greet anyone! They responded when I initiated my own greeting, but customer service should include a hello or welcome of some kind. Even looking up and smiling would be nice. Update: Same nice facility, same great trainer, and same lack of communication at the front desk. Wow! Update: Today I was enthusiastically greeted by someone working the front desk who normally works at another center that I frequent. Nice change of pace. I walked for awhile on the nice indoor track. Great option when its too wet outside.

Tarah Smith Ive been going here since May 25, so about 3 months now. The whole team is great. I choose to sign up with Byron for personal training, and he is phenomenal. I only see him twice a month, however each session he gives me a new workout plan to follow. This keeps me motivated and excited for the new programs each week. His laugh is magnetic and he is always in a great mood. Since joining him I have seen substantial progress in my strength training despite the short time frame. Additionally my 4 year old son loves the daycare. He is just as excited to go to the gym as I am each day, which as a single mom is an amazing plus. The staff all around is very friendly, helpful, and caring. I would highly recommend this gym.

George Lopez Haven’t been to the gym in awhile but decided to try some gyms in the area but still ended up going to LA fitness. They’re always keeping things clean and have a sauna. Staff has been very helpful. Manpal and Kane always make it a great experience. Friendly and easy to talk to if I have any questions. Kane provided great input on my goals during the complimentary training session. This gym is also very pet friendly. I take my service dog Moose there with me and they are always very welcoming to him.

montai howard Over the past few years lve been on and off with my fitness journey. Wasnt able to find a gym that fit my needs. I found grit city and coach jeff and thats exactly what its been. We are in there working and pushing limits daily to make ourselves into the people we all want to be. Coach Jeff is very interactive and keeps everyone on pace. Its just like having a personal trainer during the duration of the work out. By far the best gym and the best atmosphere/community in any gym lve ever been in. Would recommend if youre serious about your goals!!

Estevan Camarena Great gym with great owners. Kevin was very welcoming and helped explained the layout. Clean gym, nice modern equipment, and plenty of space. Visiting the area and glad I decided to stop by. Would highly reccomend this place if you’re in need of a good workout with different kinds of equipment.

Vee Muk I was looking for a local gym. Found YOUniversal. Came in for a consultant and walk through. Mike had me do a few workouts, be prepared on your consultation. It was a good mini workout before work. I signed up and happy to be training with Mike. I met the other Trainers Sandy and D. All super friendly and helpful. I really like the vibe of the gym and will keep going back. If youre reading this, book a consultation. :)

Goddess Manbo 5/5 for being a 24 hour gym. 5/5 for reasonable cost for all the amenities they offer. 5/5 for an amazing staff just so friendly. 3/5 for personal training wish I had a full body assessment along with a full monthly workout plan or some type of workout format so I can stay consistent. Other than that I love the personal trainer. Just wish there was more to the personal training program and my opinion.. 2/5 Cleanliness, I understand when I was there there was a new General manager by the name of David London and he has been trying desperately to get the facility in top-notch shape and I think he’s been a great job with that. 3/5 for equipment, majority of them have been broken down since I’ve been there other than that, the machines are great many variations of workout machines. I give this gym, a four out of five in general. Paul is amazing great person to talk to about your fitness journey Chris was my personal trainer and he does pushes you to get to your body goals. The front staff is amazing and the housekeeper crew are amazing as well I wish I could have stayed but I had to move wish you all the best and thank you David for helping me understand fitness you put it in away that anyone can understand

Sarah Keay I have been going to Taiso for almost four years now, and I cannot say enough positive things about this gym. Butch and Jennifer are encouraging and enthusiastic about the work they do--theyre also both just really phenomenal people all around. It is a safe environment where you can come as you are, and you will quickly feel like you are a part of a big family. Many of the folks there have become my lifelong friends. Plus, the classes are amazing--you will definitely be challenged if you put the effort in, and it honestly feels like grown-up gym class (without the awkwardness). Cannot recommend Taiso enough.

Jolene Ward I can’t say enough great things about this Pilates studio. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable, encouraging, and attentive to proper form, which makes every class feel both effective and safe. The space is always clean, welcoming, and well-organized, and the class energy is positive without being intimidating. I’ve noticed real improvements in my strength, posture, and overall well-being since joining. Each session feels tailored, and the instructors genuinely care about your progress. If you’re looking for a studio where you’ll feel supported, challenged, and motivated, this is the one.

Wendy Marquez Its still one of my favorite locations. However, this one does not have a pool. Very clean and can always find a machine, treadmill, or bike.

Libby Mollnow Im enjoying the time availability for all the fitness goals I have. I love to play pickleball and the staff are always friendly. And one of the best things too.... Is the facility is super clean. That matters to me. :)

Chontay Went here for Step exercise. Atmosphere was great.
