Where Locals Work Out: Best [16] Gyms and Fitness Centers in Narrabeen, NSW

Corey Familton Angus was absolutely fantastic treating my shoulder injury recovery. He knows his stuff, worked with me every step of the way to full recovery, and was genuine in supporting and coaching approach so I recovered as quickly as I could. Massive thanks and would highly recommend PhysioWard and Angus.

Emily Brown My 12 year old daughter has been seeing Jesse from PhysioWard for the past 2 months with a quad tear. The goal was to get her ready for her soccer and netball finals, which she did (winning the soccer GF and runners up in the netball GF). Jesse was awesome and we are both very grateful for her guidance and help. Well continue to use Jesse while she builds up her strength to prevent future injuries. Highly recommend!

Rhonda Willett I’ve been a member of many gyms over the years & Fresh start gym is the best! Open fresh air, located across from the beach. 24/7 access, the trainers are fantastic & classes. The infra Red sauna is a delight. Love Fresh Start.Member since 2017 cheers, Rhonda

Jacqui Hallchurch I love the genuine sense of community at Fresh Start! Super professional team of amazing coaches and a gym full of genuinely lovely people who make you feel welcome to get in an give it your all - whatever your fitness level. Over the last few months I have been struggling with an injury and the team have been super amazing checking in with me and Encouraging me along the way. If you are looking for ‘more than just a gym’ then I can’t recommend this place highly enough!

Jacquie M I was struggling with persistent lower back pain that was felt mostly in my upper hip region. It would settle then I would do some walking and exercises resulting in the exacerbation of the pain. I also discovered the bone density in my lower back was declining. My friend told me about Erica at Beachlife Physio and all I can say Erica is a magician!! She is professional and excellent at her role in treating the pain, as well as lovely. Plus, she has set me up with exercises to treat the pain and deal with my osteoporosis. I am really satisfied with the outcome. After a couple of weeks I am pain free and feeling confident that I can improve my bone density.

elizabeth cannon I’ve always had a great experience with Beachlife Physio. Professional and friendly staff, and very good with children too; my 7yr old son felt comfortable right away when I took him there for sessions with Alex recently. She is so knowledgeable and he made a full recovery and was back on the soccer field in no time.

Nathie Castaño Last weekend I had the best experience paddleboarding in the ocean with my friends. From the very beginning, Isabela, our guide, made everything even more special. Her joyful energy, kindness, and willingness to help with everything made a real difference. She made us feel safe, encouraged us to enjoy every moment, and shared her passion for the ocean with us. It was an incredible adventure that I will always remember! Huge thanks to Isabela for making it so perfect. I highly recommend her!!

Nikhil Nakrani The best water sports experience we’ve ever had! The activities were so much fun and well-organized, and the guy was incredibly professional, friendly, and helpful throughout. He made sure we felt safe and had a great time. It was an unforgettable day, and we can’t wait to come back and do it all over again!

Rosie Fitzpatrick Anytime Fitness Narrabeen is a relaxed , comfortable gym with all the equipment you need. The staff are friendly and helpful. I love how this one has the wet wipes for wiping down equipment, not all do some have paper towels and spray bottles. Highly recommend.

Sydney City Medical Centre Their intense focus on sales is undeniable, but when it comes to management, its a complete disaster. Ive been waiting six months for a refund with no resolution—customer care clearly isn’t a priority for them.

Craig Shannon Joined CrossFit at Freshstart on a trial over a year ago and haven’t looked back. The trainers are exceptional (big shoutout to Carlin!) and the weekly workouts are well planned out, with options for all abilities. There is also a great inclusive community to help keep you motivated.

Kate Armstrong Love coming here to train! The coaches and community at the gym are unmatched, such lovely people who encourage you to be your best and constantly support you. Highly recommend giving CrossFit a go here at CFC, even if you think youre a beginner with no idea what youre doing (like how I felt when I started!).

Big G This is easily the tenth gym on the Beaches where I’ve held a membership over the years and by far my favourite. Always squeaky clean, relatively quiet, recently renovated with all the equipment you could ever need. It’s a friendly family owned and run gym and members are all calm, friendly and respectful. Hats off to you, gents!

Joven Lapid A very nice and compact gym. Everything you need to have a good workout is here. The staff (Dean) was very friendly and helpful. Makes the gym a better place to train than what it already is.

Fernanda Fuenzalida I joined Airlocker a few months after giving birth and in just 4 months I’ve seen amazing results — physically and in my performance. The classes are always different, always challenging, and I’m hooked! Ro and Trudy are incredible — they make you feel like family from day one. Ro is super attentive with injuries and modifications, but also pushes you because he knows what you’re capable of. The community and vibe here are unbeatable. Best decision I’ve made!

Brianna J. Parker My dad and I started coming here to prepare for our trek to Everest Base camp. I have to say it’s been the most positive and fun experience. We will continue to go because we love it so much, the people, the vibes, the staff members and Trudy and Roe the owners. I can’t explain the feeling of empowerment you feel when you overcome challenges you’ve never attempted, finish a class and high five everyone. We feel so supported and accomplished at Air Locker and could not recommend it more! Thank you so much, Air locker! :)

DAVID W We were there for my three and half year old sons mate bday party. The place is busy and full of happy kids, which is great. However, I have noticed the sign says the Playground should be for above 4 year old, which obviously there are lots of kids there are under age. A bit worried about risk control.

Stephen Zupicic An amazing facility with everything inside for each member of the family! Everyone is super friendly and welcoming, especially the owners and the manager of the Sports centre, having any questions or enquires can be easily answered by the manager whom is always happy to help and super friendly, she prides herself on being professional and helpful. The cafe inside makes amazing coffee, love coming here regularly.

Yulia Mochalova Alena is very passionate about teaching yoga and sharing her knowledge with the students. She teaches a Japanese or Ryoho style of yoga which follows and changes with the seasons. It is quite intense and you’ll definitively feel your muscles and whole body working. I like Alena’s individual approach to teaching as she adapts asanas according to student abilities as well as their current health state. I highly recommend her classes to everyone

Sally Crompton Alena is a passionate, engaging and encouraging yoga teacher. She is acutely aware that not everyone is at the same level and conducts her classes accordingly. I always feel WAY better after class!!!!

Samantha Evans I began seeing Sam back in May for hamstring and glute tendinopathy. I had an entry for the Sydney Marathon but thought I’d have to pull out due to the pain running. He started me on a strength program and had me gradually lifting heavier weights whilst building up my running. Thanks to Sam, I was able to complete the marathon!!!! Throughout my treatment, he managed my expectations, set me challenging but realistic goals and explained the science behind tendon treatment. I’m now working with Sam on my new goal to get back on the trails. I would absolutely 100% recommend Sam and the team at Motus Health.

Braddon Jolley Injured at my first time in a gym (not Chocolate Box!) in over 30 years my son recommended Sam and the team at Motus to help with the injury and get me going injury free. Sam has been fantastic: personable, knowledgeable and great practical suggestions. Could not recommend him more highly.

Rebecca Vize Highly recommend Kim (and Matt) for their PT sessions!!! Over the years I have been to many different gyms, had PTs here and there but have never come across anyone as good. There’s a reason why I have stuck it out, stayed consistent and actually look forward to my Monday morning sessions as I know my time with Kim is not only great for my body but also my mind. It gets me in the right headspace for whatever comes my way. I love that Kim comes to my house and fits in with my busy schedule, she listens and guides me with my training, provides valuable information around what will help with my results but most importantly for me was Kim helped me from post major surgery and not being to do much through at all to now having no restrictions and also being in the best shape I have been in over 10 years. I’m extremely grateful! Thank you Kim.

Katy Ruffell Love training with Matt. He always encourages me and pushes me to achieve more whilst being very understanding of what it means to have a young family and the affect that can have on your energy levels. His approach is always understanding, professional and flexible. I have more energy and feel mentally stronger since we started training!

Paige Etherington Have been with sports speed for the past couple of years to train for netball and the continued improvement in my strength, endurance, speed and overall performance on court has been unmatched thanks to Nathan and his team. Extremely grateful and highly recommend this facility. Beautiful environment and training space too.

Alexandre Cayuela Jiménez I have been playing competitive beach volleyball for the last few years, and I wanted to improve my vertical jumping. Fortunately, as a member of the gym in Narrabeen, I had the opportunity to work with Nathan, who designed a 4-week program to help enhance my skills. I focused on exercises I had never tried before, which not only improved my physical abilities but also boosted my confidence. Ive noticed significant improvements, and now I can train on my own, knowing where to focus my efforts. I highly recommend Nathan; he is not only a fantastic coach but also very easy to work with.

Thai Neave Incredible team. Amazing results. Our son has absolutely thrived at Kindy Gym! The coaches are truly exceptional — patient, caring, and completely tuned into what each child needs. They strike the perfect balance between nurturing confidence and encouraging new challenges. We’re big believers that movement drives brain development, and few activities can match gymnastics for building strength, coordination, and resilience. Watching his confidence grow week after week has been such a joy. We’re so grateful for the environment they’ve built — safe, supportive, and genuinely fun. Couldn’t recommend this place more highly

Kristof Kazmer Best in the business. When looking for a place that encouraged and grew my little ones gymnastics abilities, we were directed to NBGA. We haven’t looked back since, the team are super friendly, their coaching has seen my little one go to National level and the facilities are second to none. Would definitely recommend NBGA for those looking to further their gymnastics and health.

A LOU Awesome trainers and gym. Love it!

Johnny Ferguson Good clean gym

David Palmer Always look forward to my Pilates Class overlooking Narrabeen Beach. What a way to start the day. Annebe works with you to meet your individual needs and makes the session enjoyable making you want to come back for more.

Beth Montano The classes improve your strength, flexibility, stiffness and balance while looking over the ocean and hearing the waves crash. Annebe is very friendly and welcoming!
