Where Locals Work Out: Best [15] Gyms and Fitness Centers in Oatley, NSW

Md. Rizwanul Islam I’ve been training with Mat for the past month, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Matthew’s approach is genuine, open, and comfortable, making each session enjoyable and productive. He adopts a variety of styles tailored to my goals, and his expertise in strength and conditioning, rehabilitation, and weight loss has been invaluable. If you’re serious about improving your fitness, lifestyle, and wellbeing, I highly recommend Matthew Baldwin. His personal and group spin sessions are top-notch. Thank you, Mat, for helping me gain confidence and achieve my goals!

Yiorgos Zafiriou Working with Mat has been a game-changer! Mat has helped me refine my technique and boost my confidence in the gym. He is patient, knowledgeable, and provides clear, actionable feedback. I’ve seen noticeable improvements in my training and feel more motivated than ever. Highly recommended!

Maria Alejandra DiazVargas I recently completed my mat and reformer Pilates course with Addicted to Pilates, and it was an amazing experience. Oli, the head instructor, is incredibly passionate and knowledgeable, always giving personalised feedback and keeping you motivated every step of the way. I can’t recommend Addicted to Pilates enough for anyone wanting to study Pilates.

Monica Tosevski I completed the Reformer Instructor Course with Oli, and at the start I was feeling quite out of my depth and nervous. From the very first class, Oli made me feel completely at ease. She is incredibly warm and humble, yet full of energy and strength that instantly motivates everyone around her. Her passion for Pilates and her ability to teach others is a true gift. It was so easy to learn from her. Her presence is engaging and she genuinely cares that each person understands the concepts before moving on. She leads with both strength and thoughtfulness, creating an environment where you feel supported and inspired at the same time. Oli goes above and beyond to make sure all her clients receive a real VIP experience. I truly felt that level of care and attention throughout the course. I’ve walked away not only with a wealth of knowledge and confidence but also feeling deeply inspired by Oli herself. Thank you so much, Oli!

Mary Greenhalgh Vera is an exceptional Pilates instructor with wonderful attention to detail and incredibly passionate about teaching correct technique and personalise exercises to suit your ability which you just don’t get at larger studios. I joined knowing absolutely nothing, and she has taken so much time (and patience) in teaching me. Joining her studio is one of the best decisions I made this year!

Amanda I have been a client of Vera’s since 2002, and now it’s 2024. Vera is a marvelous Pilates instructor; her classes are well-structured and cater to everyone’s needs. Pilates Naturally is a fantastic place, and my daughter Kerrie has been practicing for a long time, along with my granddaughter. Vera’s small and fun classes create a supportive atmosphere where we can progress at our own pace. Ive seen great improvements in my strength and flexibility, and Kerrie and my granddaughter have too. Vera keeps classes fun and exciting, making each session enjoyable. Lorraine T

Lindsey Crutchley Boda Soul is my second home. The studio is one of a very special place and sanctuary. The classes are incredible with lots of variety in instructors. Nicole is an amazing human, studio owner with incredible passion for her clients , classes and space. An absolute joy each and every time.

Vivian Zhang I’ve recently signed up and I’m so glad I did! The instructors are incredibly professional—knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about helping you improve. What really stands out is how friendly and welcoming they are, which makes every session enjoyable and motivating. The studio itself is beautiful, with brand-new, well-maintained equipment and a clean, calming atmosphere. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-quality Pilates experience!

Deamma Taganesia Had the pleasure of joining my first class with Sami today and she is absolutely amazing !! She is the best instructors and really takes the time to key in on your individual needs. Showing the class how to do the exercise first and making sure no one has fallen behind. The exercises are well thought out and tailored to the level of class she’s teaching. 100% recommend Sami’s classes to all my friends and family. Definitely be returning for regular sessions !

dema berro Reform Me is incredible! The atmosphere is so welcoming, and Sami is simply a Gem. She is so supportive, skilled, and truly the best Pilates instructor I have ever come across. Ive gained strength and flexibility, and I look forward to every class. I Highly recommend!

Jonathan Light An excellent gym. All of the equipment is new. It is very clean. It has a friendly atmosphere (customers and staff). It is independently owned (not a big chain), and the owner (Angie) is often there - she knows her customers (like me!) by name. The personal trainers are also excellent.

Amy Zucker This is such a great gym. Small, clean, friendly, accommodating. Angie and her team do such a great job making everyone feel welcome and supported in meeting their fitness goals. I have been taking Jamies classes and can not recommend her highly enough. She is very down to earth and understanding, yet still pushes you to achieve your best. Appreciate how affordable and family friendly the gym is too.

Mark Hannon After 40 years of sports, remedial and relaxation massages I can say that Kiara is the No 1 massage therapist I have seen. Her ability to also perform Myotherapy / Dry Needling and Cupping has helped me with numerous soft tissue pain relief and got me back to doing the sports I love. I would recommend her to anybody of any age.

Nidhi Chowkira Ive had multiple treatments with Kiara Wark over the past few months which have helped me so much! She was very professional in her service and incredibly knowledgable. She has taught me multiple exercises to help strengthen and stretch my leg/lower back muscles which have been very useful. She is also a great pilates instructor who taught me all of the movements and how to execute them correctly (it was my first time haha). Would really recommend SST to anyone in the area (or outside of the area) its well worth the time and cost.

Heidi Palmer Great friendly club. Surprising amount of gymnastics equipment in the facility.

Jayne Collins My family was a very happy part of this gym club for 7 years. We were therefore very shocked & saddened when they unexpectedly (without warning or any given reason) sacked our daughters coach and then cancelled her classes. All done via email, so that they didn’t have to deal with the extremely sad and let down kids! No goodbyes allowed even. Appalling way to treat children!

Deborah Bye Trish and the team at the Phyiso and Pilates clinic are amazing. Ive tried many pilates studios previously, even those run by physiotherapists, and have never found somewhere where the instructor truly understands my physiology and how to tailor the exercises unique to me. I see Mitch for my physio consultations and then he teaches my Thursday afternoon rehab class so you get that continuity of support. The classes only consist of max four people and the studio has lots of specialist equipment including reformer beds. Its been amazing to see how much stronger Ive become in only a few weeks of classes. Thanks Take Control!!

Steve Hockings High quality Pilates classes from an elite team of Physiotherapists who really take the time to work out what issues your body has and how to achieve your goals. Smaller classes mean that they can tailor make each class to suit the individual needs of each client, and keep an eye on you the whole time to make sure you are doing each exercise correctly, so there is no risk of injury then. I feel stronger and more balanced after each class.

Danielle Wylie Lauren is a gem! I first started training with Lauren about 6 months before my wedding in a mad panic to get into shape and have continued ever since. Ive always hated exercise/gym, but Lauren worked with me to set really clear and achievable short, medium and longterm goals and has held me accountable. She helped with food suggestions and tracking, navigated around a bunch of health issues, and has been largely responsible for me developing a love of being active! Its so refreshing to be trained by someone who is knowledgable and motivating whilst being warm, humble and loves to have a laugh.

Rowena Yamazaki Getting more movement in my week with Lauren has been a joy and positive investment. I’ve really appreciated her genuine care, communication and innovation. She is always well prepared with variety in her quality programs and continues to provide extremely clean and covid safe settings. She’s improved by my strength, stamina, confidence and knowledge to give strength and resistance training a go in fun and sustainable ways.

Madeline Bargenda The gym has everything you need and is kept clean. I asked the owner to consider getting blinds and he got them installed the following week. Great owner that cares about his clients

Wendy Ng Finn is a great trainer, patient and professional. The gym is bright and clean with new equipment

Trish Roth Sean and his team have great experience in getting the best from your body and the outdoor fitness experience is great for the body and soul. As a Sports Physio he is a great resource to take clients to elite fitness

Daniel Carmont Fun, tough and rewarding group fitness.

Michael Salem My partner and I have been enjoying Mandy’s classes for a while. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Vicki Jones For someone who is not a yoga person it has been an amazing experience. Mandy at Find Your Balance makes it easy for everyone to follow and join in her classes. The classes allow lots of time for stretch and challenge you when required. The end of each class is always relaxing which is a nice way to finish. Mandy is always positive and encouraging to all. Would definitely recommend attending one if the classes.

David Whitaker Good session of Hatha yoga with a friendly group. Cathie’s very observant and helps identify areas you can tweak to improve your practice. And the group are very welcoming; the tea&coffee meetup (optional, open to all at a nearby cafe) after the Saturday session is a great addition!
