I have been a member of this gym for almost a year and it is very worth the membership fees for me. Even through COVID, they provide a nice mix of classes so that my workout never feels overly routine or stale. Additionally, between the turf, machine, rack, and free weights sections, there are adequate equipment for so many people to work out at the same time without feeling crowded. Cardio section is fine, though many of the spin bikes have dead monitors and I’ve seen quite a few treadmills be down.
The instructors and classes are really good and mostly quite qualified. My favorites are jessica

It’s a standard gym. I’ve certainly been to better. In general, the gym is clean and offers a good variety of equipment and classes. Additionally, there is usually little to no wait time for equipment. Unfortunately, the lack of professionalism of one staff member in particular ruins the entire experience every time she is there, hence the reason for the 1 start rating. When I ask her to sign me in for my visit, she acts as though I’m asking for her first born and insists that I use my key card, which I don’t carry bc it will get lost (I don’t carry any key cards for that matter - my

In these days of hoping to get what you paid for this place stands an unusual ode to value. It isn't cheap but affordable and one price gives full access to classes (in person and virtually), so no extra fees for them. Big enough but not so large it feels impersonal. The front porch and foyer are pleasant enough to hold small meetings and the free wifi means study space without corn muffins and triple shots ruining a great workout. Clean space, great equipment, points earned for showing up. The staff is pleasant and low key. Classes cover good options too.

Today was my first day at this gym and I already love it. The staff are very friendly especially the front desk. I like the 2 days free trail, you can check the gym and see if you like it, they have, family and monthly and annual plans. It’s very clean and organized. However, You have to park on the street but there’s a nearby parking. Ultimately I recommend this place.

I’ve been to a lot of gyms in my life. Prior to this, the best rating I would give a gym would probably be 2 stars at most. Aside from my childhood gym on the west coast which was pretty sweet, this gym is a solid 5 stars. Well done. Clean. Nice staff. Good equipment. What more do need? Maybe just a couple more stair masters, but first world problems immaright?

This is one of the best gyms I've been to. It's a little on the smaller side but it has everything you could ever need. When you first walk in there's a sitting area that's open to the public and a counter where you can order drinks, smoothies and protein shakes. The gym area has a multitude of cardio machines everything from treadmills to air assault bikes. They have free weights, and four squat racks. They also have a turf area for stretching and sled push/pulls. The locker rooms are also nice and have a steam and sauna room. Membership pricing is a bit steep but you get what

I only did a two day pass so this review is based on a short amount of time. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I'm kind of old school, I don't really want a gym to be an art gallery. I don't want to see british hunting scenes in the mens locker room, etc. kind of snowflakey in a lot of ways. That being said everything that makes a gym great they have down. Super clean, great sauna, all the right equipment (except an incline situp bench). And not too crowded. Great skylights and the staff seemed just the right amount of attentive. Will def join if I move to

MActivity is more than just the best gym in New England- it is a community center, an art gallery and a great place to hang out. Tucked away in East Rock- an awesome neighborhood in New Haven, mActivity has the widest selection of new equipment I have seen anywhere in the world. They have amazing trainers like Kevin and Lindsay, and Barbara, one of the managers is so friendly and helpful she makes the place feel like a home away from home. The place is super clean, well organized and so affordable you no longer have any excuse not to get in shape and stay in shape.

This is such a great gym!
Two free visits for new folks that include access to classes. Plus very reasonable rates after that. Employees are helpful and friendly. They have free locks up front so you don't have to worry about your stuff getting stolen (a common problem when visiting a gym as a non-member).
Spacious, clean, quiet! Not too crowded when I went, but it was during off hours.
So much great equipment -- they have two squat racks, plus two racks in the back that can function as squat racks, plus a jillion cool looking sets of equipment that I don't even know what they

Echoing what other reviewers have said: this is hands down the best gym in New Haven. I did their two visit free trial and joined the second my previous gym membership expired.
PROS:
- Gorgeous place. The entrance has all these pretty string lights and artsy decor, lots of tables and chairs for hanging out. I'm a sucker for first impressions and Mactivity killed it on this one.
- Plenty of cardio machines, and a great weights section including two squat racks, plenty of Olympic bars, free weights of all sizes.
- The turf area is large and awesome, never had any issues securing the right

If you love super clean, super nice gyms but aren't willing to shell out the HUNDREDS of dollars for a place like Equinox, Mactivity is pretty much a dream come true. Very friendly staff, very clean bathrooms with complimentary soap/shampoo/lotion (towels cost though, so bring your own!), perfect sized facility with plenty of cardio, floor space for mat work, machines, and weights. And best of all, it is pretty much never crowded even despite their relatively limited hours
The group turf classes they offer are great workouts. The other classes like mat pilates and yoga are a little lacking

I went with a friend to a free class the other night - a glow zumba party! I had never heard of mActivity until I saw the facebook invite but a glow zumba party sounded fun. First, who knew such a cool building was on Nicoll St.? I had no idea. There's a parking lot across the street but I ended up parking on the road. The interior of the building was very inviting - modern and industrial, but not cold and off-putting or overly masculine. In front are some tables and chairs to hang out - they sell smoothies and other snacks so that's a good place to sit.

This is by far the best gym option near downtown New Haven. It is beautiful and never too crowded.
Staff: The staff are wonderful, helpful, attentive. I think the group training classes are a huge benefit. Even though you're working with a group, you get some individualized attention from a professional who I think genuinely cares that you reach your fitness goals. Shana's Zumba class is also amazing. You will have a great time and have no idea how much exercise you're getting until you wake up the next morning totally sore!

I love mActivity. It all starts with owners Pablo and Burch who really listen to the members and respond to them. I swtiched from another gym that always made hollow promises--like getting new spin bikes, etc. It is so refreshing to go to a gym where the owners really care and are committed to their members. Burch even offered me the use of one of her laptops when I had a computer failure.
You can tell this gym is Burch and Pablo's personal dream. mActivity has the best equipment, the most amazing instructors (love Amanda Mia!), super friendly and caring front desk personnel. mActivity

Fabulous place. I only discovered it during the summer, but if I'd known about it when it opened in January, it would have transformed my winter. The place is quite beautiful, with high ceilings and natural materials. The equipment is plentiful and new. The exercise rooms have everything I could want--balls, bands, steps for days. AND they have a eucalyptus steam room and a sauna! Unbelievable.
The owner is really nice as are the front-desk women. Even though this place is basically perfect, it's not crowded. A miracle.

I was in New Haven briefly and used a day pass ($15). This gym was impressive. If I was a student I don't think I would ever leave. They have two areas with tables (one almost seemed to be a designated quiet area) and free wifi. I didn't try the food but the front half of this place doesn't even look like a gym but more of a cafe or smoothie/salad bar. The gym area is very well designed, the building must an old plant of some kind. The ceilings are high enough it could be a pretty solid bouldering gym. Anyway, lots of space and the equipment doesn't feel cramped.

This gym is a dream come true.
They have a beautiful, sunny entrance from whence you can stop to look at the fabulous local art on the walls, sit and enjoy a smoothie from their very well-stocked bar, or proceed to the gym.
But before you work out, pop in to the locker room to turn on the sauna for afterwards.
The gym has practically all the equipment you could ever want. Kettlebells in a huge array of sizes, battle ropes, a turf area for training, tires, rings, plyo boxes, rowing machines, as well as the traditional dumbbells and treadmills, etc.
What's more, you can head into the wood
