Toronto Gym in the heart of Davisville

Classic gym overall! Cool vibes and if you want to concentrate and workout, definitely the gym to go! Special thank you to BEN, who was kind enough to help me and let train as a drop in

Great gym

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I rarely write reviews, but Striation 6 absolutely deserves one. I came to Canada for a two-week holiday from the UK, and as someone who trains consistently, I didn't want to stop my workouts while I was away. Finding a gym for such a short stay turned out to be surprisingly difficult. Most places either charged very high day-pass fees or required long-term memberships. On my first day in Canada, I walked into Striation 6 hoping they might have a solution. That is when I met Colleen, and she completely changed my experience. From the moment we started talking, she was incredibly warm, welcoming and genuinely kind. Within about 10 minutes she had arranged the perfect short-term membership for me. Not only did she find a solution, but she gave me an amazing price that I honestly wasn't expecting. She even offered me the same great rate that is normally available to long-term members. I was genuinely touched by her generosity. She showed me around the gym, explained everything clearly, introduced me to the staff, told me who I could ask if I needed help, and even gave me her contact information so I could reach her directly if I had any questions. That level of customer care is very rare. The gym itself is fantastic. It is spacious, bright, exceptionally clean and very well organized. The equipment is modern, plentiful and has everything you need for serious strength training or any style of workout. The changing rooms and bathrooms were probably the cleanest I have ever seen in any gym. What impressed me even more was how attentive and knowledgeable the staff were. If I was looking at a piece of equipment or wondering how to use something, someone would notice and come over to help before I even had to ask. I was also dealing with tennis elbow during my stay, and the advice I received was incredibly helpful ( thanks to Ben) . They showed me practical alternatives, suggested different pieces of equipment, and explained how I could modify certain exercises to continue training while reducing stress on my elbow. That kind of personal attention and genuine willingness to help made a huge difference to my workouts. Another huge advantage is the location. It was only a short walk from where I was staying, making it incredibly convenient. The opening hours are also excellent, opening early in the morning and staying open until the evening, which made it easy to fit training into my holiday schedule. What made the experience even better was the atmosphere. Every morning I looked forward to training because everyone was friendly, approachable and always happy to help. Whenever I needed anything, someone was there immediately with a smile. Thanks to Striation 6, I was able to enjoy my two-week holiday without interrupting my training routine, and I genuinely looked forward to every workout. If I lived in Canada, I wouldn't even consider another gym. I would join Striation 6 without hesitation. A huge thank you to Colleen, Ben and the entire team for making me feel so welcome. You turned what could have been a stressful search into one of the highlights of my trip. I will definitely be back whenever I return to Canada.

I recently joined Striation 6 and could not be happier. My fiancé and I have been training with Ben several times a week and have noticed significant improvements in our strength and overall fitness. Thanks for everything, Ben!

Great gym! Personal training with Ben is the best!

Great community feeling kind of gym, friendly and actually quite huge once inside. A little hidden gem in the Davisville area! The personal trainers are knowledgeable, caring and there are a lot of different price points to choose from, making it affordable for everyone.

A large cozy gym and a special creative method called Isophit training. Perfect for recovery and building healthy joints and muscles.

Great Gym! Wonderful staff! Always very attentive and supportive, the gym has everything you need. Highly recommended!

It's great to workout there😃😃

Great gym! Clean, well-equipped, and never too crowded. The staff is friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend!

A welcoming, community-focused gym where friendly faces, supportive staff, and a positive vibe make every workout feel like you belong.

I love working out at Striation 6. The gym equipment is clean and simple to use, allowing me to focus on my workout without confusion or wait times. But what I love most are the staff that are always very helpful and approachable. From my first day at Striation I felt welcomed and supported in reaching my goals.

It’s a very nice gym and the stuff inside too! Is the best place for your daily workout!

Great experience with this gym. Staff are phenomenal, great equipment, and the dojos are a great spot for calisthenics. Definitely recommend!!

I’ve been a member of this gym for almost two years, and it has consistently been the most energizing part of my routine. The atmosphere, the trainers, and the community create a space that pushes you to elevate your performance every single day. I’m relocating to another city, otherwise I would never consider leaving. This gym has helped me build strength, maintain discipline, and genuinely enjoy the process. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a motivating, uplifting, and high‑energy fitness environment. Special Thanks to Colleen...

Amazing place and friendly staff!

Rachel Dix has been my trainer for the past seven months, resulting in 20 pounds of fat loss. Her routine has corrected my body misalignment and posture. I have also gained greater mobility and strength. Rachel is a positive influence in my life. Her instructions and guidance during an exercise have led to my appreciation for working out — 4 times a week. Her routines are always different, challenging and motivating. Our discussions on goals and progress are substantiated by her support and understanding of my evolving abilities. Rachel is consistently upbeat and positive. She understands how to command my best during our workouts. She has also helped to correct my right shoulder. As a witness to my results, my wife is now also working out with Rachel. The context for this remark is that my wife has seen me work with various other trainers.

Great gym. Nice people- everything you need. 6 stars!

the IsoPhit classes have changed my body. 65+ years old and having coming out of a long period of shoulder rehabilitation these classes support my next goal of gaining strength. While shoulder was the catalyst for giving this a try - my entire body has benefitted. i haven't felt this STRONG in years!

An excellent local gym with a welcoming and engaging team.

If you’re looking for a serious, pain-free, results-driven training environment in Toronto, Striation 6 is one of the few places that actually walks the talk. The coaching quality is elite. The isometric and Muscle Activation approach is rare. The space is clean, intentional, and built for people who actually want to move well and feel better long-term. No gimmicks. No chaos. Just proper training with people who know what they’re doing. Striation 6 has been a staple in Davisville for years for a reason — the staff care, the community stays, and the results speak for themselves. Sam, if/when you see this, I sent you a letter this week along with a custom video breakdown I made for Striation 6, but I’m not sure if Canada Post delivered it or if it got sacrificed to the mailbox gods. Either way, I spent way a while long putting it together, especially on the custom thumbnail of you so I’m leaving this here once just to make sure it didn’t get buried. 😉 If you see this, let me know if the letter or video ever reached you. P.S Yes i can mod & or edit this per request

The staff are super nice and friendly and they have all of the workout equipment you need!

My trainer Katie is the reason of my smile whenever I come here on Tuesday and Thursday and that's because she's so methodical. She also helped me to improve my technique and posture.

I recently joined Striation after a lovely introduction by Colleen. The vibe here is really friendly and the place is equipped with what you need for a great session. I got introduced to machines that work based on pressure and those were super cool! Way better than I expected. There are a variety of classes which I personally haven't tried but the options are cool, way more diverse than I'd expect for a fairly small location. There are an assortment of bands and accessories that are always well organized and never lacking. I haven't encountered any busy times and I came in at a range of different times of the day. The music isn't too loud and the playlists are awesome. The bathrooms are clean, with complimentary razors and shaving cream and deodorant, something I actually haven't seen anywhere, great prices in a vending machine, as well as complimentary coffee!! Super cool of them. The price is affordable and I highly(!) recommend checking it out.

Great environment, very friendly and relaxed atmosphere with a great variety of classes. Never have to wait for weights. Definitely recommend!

Highly recommend coming to Striation 6 and checking out one of the Isophit classes with Rachel. Isophit is the ONLY thing I’ve done where I’ve seen a real change in my strength and body, and the 30 minute workouts are the perfect length for me

Conveniently located in midtown and a few steps away from Davisville TTC Subway Station, Striation 6 is tucked in the lower levels of 33 Davisville. The onboarding process is great and a free session is included to help you learn how to use the machines on the floor. The staff are very understanding and happy to help you out. If you need to pause your membership, it's not a hassle. I primarily go for the Isophit classes which are always a blast and a great supportive community. A fun, safe way to strengthen the body. The Isophit instructor, Rachel Dix provides the right amount of challenge and encourages us to push our limits. Other types of group classes are available. I appreciate that there's no extra fee to keep a locker at the gym and having showers with shampoo, conditioner and body wash already stocked is great. Bring your own towels though!

Really enjoying Rachel’s Isophit clssses. The workout is low-impact but surprisingly intense, and I actually leave feeling stronger, but not broken. If you’re intimidated by traditional gyms or just looking to ease back into fitness without hurting yourself, this is the perfect place to be!

I've been working out at Striation 6 for over a year now and am very happy with the results achieved so far. Saw an ad on FB, made an appointment for a consultation, and met with Colleen. Lucky for me, Colleen was able to add me to her client roster. She understands my goals, keeps the work-outs 'fresh', and has been really good at helping me address some on-going issues. I've recommended Striation 6 to a few friends and all have joined! The location is great, the 'vibe' is relaxed, the trainers are knowledgeable, waiting for equipment is not a thing, and of course they offer more than just personal training .. What else can I say? Check them out!

Rachel is amazing!

After trying out some commercial gyms, I was looking for a local gym with all of the equipment that I needed along with a welcoming atmosphere and Striation 6 is the perfect fit for me. Everyone is very friendly, the gym is clean and tended to and I have all of the tools that I need for a great workout. The espresso machine is a big bonus too 😛

If you are looking to sign up for the RTS course Sam is the only instructor in Ontario I would recommend. He’s a real genuine guy that really cares about your learning. To him the course is not about a hierarchal position and or an ego stroke. Can’t say that about any course you take further north.

For anyone looking to increase strength, endurance, flexibility and overall fitness, I wholeheartedly recommend Isophit at Striation 6. Rachel Dix is a rockstar instructor and personal trainer who will transform your body and elevate your mood with her workouts in only 30 minutes! The classes are small, the music is energizing and I always leave feeling fully pumped for my day.

Super cool facility, friendly staff and great equipment! Great vibe! Highly recommend.

Cool underground gym, a lot of equipment and doesn't get too busy.

Excellent place to train with professional personal trainers.

Excellent Gym & Martial Arts Facility. Good Trainers available if needed to help you get started, especially if this is you 1st time joining a gym. Just a few steps from the subway.

Striation 6 Fitness Center is fantastic! The staff is super friendly and always ready to help. The gym is spotless and well-organized, with top-quality equipment. It’s the perfect place to reach your fitness goals. Highly recommend!

Hands down best choice I’ve ever made. The trainers are wonderful and inclusive and stay up to date on the latest health issues and technics.

I have been training at striation 6 for almost two years now. I can count the number of times I have had to wait for a machine on one hand. Despite fostering a large (but close-knit) community, the gym is rarely "packed" and always has enough equipment and space to hit your most ideal workout. The machines, dumbbells, barbells and plates are high quality, and specifically curated to fit the needs of both high-level athletes and beginners alike. Cannot recommend a gym (or honestly anything) more than this one.

Great gym! Been going here for about 2 years. Awesome staff and equipment. Great place to workout.

This gym is the best kept secret in the Davisville neighborhood.

Love this place! This gym is small and friendly. Sam, the owner, cares about his clients and genuinely wants to help them achieve their fitness goals. I’ve watched trainers working with people of all different ages and abilities while I’m working out and they meet people where they are at in their fitness journey then help them improve. No pressure, no hard sell tactics, just a great place to work out!

I am a 60 year old woman who wanted to get back into training. I signed up for some private sessions. The guidance I was given was excellent, took into account my age, strengths and abilities without being to overwhelming.

I love that Striation 6 is steps away from the Yonge & Davisville intersection - it’s so convenient! Their space has everything I need for a great strength workout; and their change rooms are massive! Thank you for a no-fuss gym that I can come to anytime!

I love this gym and the team here! I joined back in 2020, was super out of shape and overweight, painfully body conscious, was intimidated by most gyms and had no idea where to start with fitness. The small gym environment and the friendly atmosphere at Striation was exactly what I needed to get into a routine and with the help of Jess (super trainer!) and Sam (so knowledgeable!), the progress I have made in the last four years has been amazing. Not even just physically but also a much better, stronger mindset in general. I made the mistake of quitting striation at one point, going with a closer and more budget fitness option, but quickly realized how special the experience at striation is in comparison and came back. The way this team has embraced me and supported my goals, the way I've watched them handle covid and the various phases of restrictions, the way they accommodate and share knowledge with their clients......these things make all the difference, and I haven't experienced this type of family feel anywhere else. My body, and my life really, have done a total 180 since i joined striation and i owe it all to these guys......I really can't say enough good things about them. 🙂 thanks for everything 🙏 ❤️

Nice place, quiet and not so crowded. Never ever have to wait for machines and people are very friendly.

Striation6 has been my go to gym for years. It’s always extremely clean, it’s never too busy that you have to wait longer than a set at most for a machine, and staff is always around to answer any questions. The community is very friendly and it’s a safe and welcoming environment for anyone who’s scared to try a new gym for the first time. Special shout out to Sam, he’s extremely knowledgeable and always willing to lend a hand if needed!

its quite amazing feeling like marvel super hero training in here

Sam runs a great gym, it might be small but it has everything you need. There are always cardio machines available, and plenty of kettlebells, dumbbells, barbellls, racks, cables, and machines to keep you lifting. Members are considerate and respectful of both the equipment and each other.
