Fernwood Fitness Reviews 

I've been coming to fernwood since it opened in carnlea and have loved everything and the staff are friendly I started because I had diabetes and was told to exercise for my health even if I don't feel like getting up as soon as I get there the ladies make everyone feel good

Extremely pushy sales tactics to get you to join. Then extremely difficult to cancel. Unhappy with the overall experience

I have never felt so included, supported, and motivated in a gym environment until I joined Fernwood Newstead. From day one, Cheryl and her incredible team have made me feel like I truly belong. Their energy, encouragement, and genuine care have completely transformed how I see fitness.

This gym is more than just a place to work out – it’s my happy place, my sanctuary, and my daily dose of positivity. I’ve never once regretted investing in myself by being part of this amazing community. If you’re looking for a women’s gym where you’ll feel empowered, welcomed, and inspired every single time you walk through the door, Fernwood Newstead is it.

Highly recommend to any woman looking for not just fitness, but connection, confidence, and a real sense of belonging. 💪💕

My Fernwood Fitness journey started in Feb this year when i returned to work from maternity leave, i was tired all the time, had no energy and was always feeling slug-ish. I had been wanting to go back to the gym after having my daughter in Jan last year but the Mum guilt got the better of me and i just always made excuses why i couldnt join the gym.

But i was sick of making the same excuses so i decided to bite the bullet and book a tour at Fernwood Cranbourne knowing they had the childcare facility which i could use on my days off work, so now i really didnt have any excuses.

As soon as i had the tour around Cranbourne and saw the facilities and what group fitness classes they had to offer, i signed up straight away. I did my first body scan 2 weeks after joining, and this was a big wake up call for me, seeing my weight, BMI and body fat percentage i knew i had to make big changes not only for my kids but for myself.

Since then, i changed my diet and started attending as may group fitness classes as i could around work and the kids, even the days when i couldnt make it to a class in time, i would still try and get to the gym for a workout, even if it just meant a quick 30 mins on the treadmill.

I have really enjoyed the boxing, body pump and group active classes at both Narre Warren and Cranbourne, these are the main classes i have been doing, i really struggled at the start, could barely lift any weight and was struggling to make it through the 45 mins class.
Now since joining, i have seen and felt a massive improvement in my fitness, i have almost tripled the weight im able to lift in body pump and i can finish the group active class without stopping so many times!

A few weeks ago i had my follow up body scan, 12 weeks after joining Fernwood and i was genuinely shocked at the results, so shocked Patrica had to tell me about 3 times before it actually registered. I have lost over 11kgs, gained 1.4kgs of muscle and lost over 30cms around my body!

I feel so much better within myself, both physically and mentally. Joining Fernwood was the best thing i ever did. I feel so comfortable when im at the gym which i have never experienced before. I would also like to give a shoutout to Karina, who pushes me in every single class to do my best and be better, if it wasnt for her i wouldnt have got the results i did, so thank you Karina for being a great fitness instructor and always pushing me to do better!

Love the friendliness and feeling of security and welcoming from the club.
Love the classes, especially the Pilates reformer, and how everything is kept clean.
Love the variety of classes offered and knowing I can gradually build my strength and fitness at my rate.
Best gym club I’ve been to and won’t be changing.
Definitely geared to women’s needs.
Well done Fernwood for filling a gap for us women!

I have never been a gym person but at age 49 I decided I needed to do something to get into better shape and feel about good about myself. So I joined Fernwood a year ago and absolutely love it. I love the classes. I love the instructors and I love the community. I’ve met lots of lovely people as well. The best part is I feel really safe at the gym being only women so I don’t have to worry about anything other than getting my work out done. I’ve really surprised myself and have gone consistently 3 to 4 times a week for an entire year. I even used another Fernwood gym when I went on holidays. For anyone thinking about joining - just do it. It has been an absolute game changer for my well being and mental health!

I absolutely love being a member at Fernwood St Kilda! The environment is so welcoming and empowering—perfect for women of all fitness levels. The staff are always friendly, supportive, and genuinely care about your goals. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, and the group classes are fantastic with motivating instructors who keep things fresh and fun. I always leave feeling stronger and more energized. Highly recommend to any woman looking for a supportive and inspiring fitness community!

Friendly and welcoming. I've been coming here for over 2 years, highly recommend.

I have been a member for just over 2 years. I love going everyday. Great space, a fun community, excellent instructors especially Susie. Best decision to quit my old gym & join Fernwood Annandale.

I look forward to my classes everyday 💞 .

I am really enjoying the reformer Pilates classes. I go in the morning before work as it’s the only time I can go, but disappointing they are no longer offering the Tue 7am class and they don’t offer many 7am classes, only Wed and Thurs. (Fernwood Castle Hill)

Trans women are women. I won’t be renewing my membership due to this.

Fernwood is an inclusive fitness gym where everyone is encouraged to strive to become the best version of themselves. All fitness levels welcome and accommodated. The first gym where I have felt comfortable doing strength training.

The staff are very helpful and understanding and help you feel confident and welcome

After moving on from a strength & conditioning gym, Fernwood was very accommodating and understanding. Jayne has been nothing but amazing, supportive and is a great listener. I had asked for extra kettlebells and they delivered. Great place for training with like-minded people.

I have felt incredibly comfortable in doing my workouts and not felt (overly) self conscious. Staff are friendly and the people attending my gym are everyday women.
I love it and it has helped me to feel excited to exercise. Something I haven't felt for years

Fernwood capalaba is a great place to start and continue a healthier lifestyle.
