mActivity Fitness Center

The best gym I have attended in Connecticut. Staff are courteous, professional, and extremely accommodating. Price reflects the quality of service and attentiveness to customers wants and needs. Highly recommend if you are looking for a high end gym, with a great community feel.

While I do think mActivity is pricy, they do have several perks that attempt to justify the price (the co-working space, community events, group fitness classes, sauna, compresssion, cryotherapy etc.). If you’re looking for just a gym and aren’t making use of those then sure it’s pricy. TLDR it’s worth it if it fits you.

Try it for a month, if you’re making use of the membership then keep it! If not, it’s easy to cancel with an online form unlike many other gyms.

I had a minor issue with my card being charged after I filled out the form but Rose and the mActivity team were quick to rectify the situation. I would definitely come back just off their great customer service alone.

Incredibly friendly and understanding staff. I commuted in from out of town and they welcomed me like I was a local.

Great facility. Very clean. Lots of equipment and machines. The customers seemed happy and like they had a sense of community. I wish I lived here so I could go to this gym.

Such a fantastic gym! Yesterday, somehow my AirPods fell (in their case) bounced inside the stair stepper machine. Andrew (awesome employee!) fearlessly sacrificed his arm to reach back into the stair stepper and retrieved the case, and buds individually. Thanks for going above and beyond the call of duty!

this is the best gym. yes it's more expensive than Payne or Planet Fitness, however I would pick this gym over those any day--the equipment is brand new and in great shape/well-maintained (especially the iFit treadmills which are AMAZING), unlimited classes are included (that alone can more than pay for the membership), there's a sauna and a steam room in the locker rooms, free cryo and compression once a month, they have free tea and coffee at the entrance, there's a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere (lots of different kinds of people of varying fitness levels and no one making anyone feel like they don't belong). The staff is all super friendly. They also host monthly social gatherings. Also you accrue points by going and they have actually nice rewards like a great gym bag, yoga mat, free sessions with trainers, extra cryo and compression sessions, and more. Totally, totally worth the price. Really can't say enough good things about this place. I hated gyms until this gym so that says a lot!!!

I’m so pleased that I chose this gym, for several reasons. From the friendly, personable staff who go above and beyond, to awesome classes that are included, to the incredible spa area with a sauna and steam room…all contribute to an all inclusive, amazing experience. I’ve used the chryotherapy and compression treatment that’s offered, and how recharged I feel when done, speaks for itself. The owners are so generous…They have themed monthly community events, that bring people together, and opportunity for local businesses to take part in. I have joined many gyms in different areas of the state and on the west coast…Mactivity has exceeded all my expectations and more. The best gym ever ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is a wonderful gym! Gyms can be intimidating, but everyone at mActivity (staff, members, instructors, etc) is so kind. It's a great and clean facility with a lot of natural light. The gym offers a variety of fitness classes everyday (yoga, barre, strength training, spin, and more!) that are included in your membership. I spent the majority of my time taking classes because I needed the guided workout and energy that can only come from a class workout. All of the instructors are amazing and great at keeping the music and workouts interesting, but a special shout out must go to LaToya who is so strong and whose classes are so fun that I barely noticed how hard I was working.

There are too many perks that come with the membership to name all of them but here are some of my favorites: monthly catered socials, a point system where you can accumulate them by signing up for classes and referring friends to the gym and then redeem them for gym swag or personal training sessions, free towel service, and a sauna.

I'm moving away so I can't enjoy this gym anymore but I hope this review convinces you to join!!

Love this place! Great variety of classes. I really like with their steam room and sauna. They also have social nights with a DJ on Thursdays.

mActivity is more than just one of the best gyms in Connecticut, it is a wonderful community center, an art gallery and a great place to hang out.

Cleanest and best maintained gym I’ve ever been to. Way better to go to than giant gym chains or the cursed Payne Whitney. Not the cheapest option but definitely think you get your money’s worth. They have great communal space and social events and cool stuff like cryotherapy which I had never tried before but liked a lot.

I cannot emphasize how much cleaner this gym is compared to much larger chains and I really have to applaud the staff for keeping it spotless. Out of order machines weren’t really a problem for me here either, and ending my membership was really easy. The other gym members were overall very respectful.

If I had to name a downside, I would say it would be some of the classes that occur around 5pm/6pm that take up a lot of the turf space and use a loud timer that I found distracting; I would prefer if larger classes were not at peak time and less disruptive, but not a huge deal.

Would definitely have stayed a member if I stayed in New Haven!

I have been (selfishly) keeping this review to myself, because this place is truly a gem. I came to CT just for a few months to work, and I am so grateful to have found mActivity. This is by far my favorite gym EVER. The overall atmosphere is welcoming, it is spacious and clean, and well equipped with gear. The sauna and steam room are a huge plus as well. It is so clean that sometimes I choose to shower here, rather than the rental house I have stayed at! They offer a variety of classes, and I have not been disappointed with the ones I’ve taken. I could go on and on about how great this place is. I am truly sad that my time in CT is coming to an end because no gyms like this exist back home. So, THANK YOU mActivity, for being my happy place! I’d highly recommend this gym.

Amazing gym! I love the workout classes they offer, especially the ones they just added last week. This gym has become my second home, not only do you get to workout but also get the chance to meet great friends.
Impressed with the cleanliness of the equipments, professionalism and friendly staff members they have. Highly recommend this gym for beginners and or pros

I loved being a member of this gym! Everyone there is so welcoming and friendly, especially Burch, Rose, and Pablo! They hold social gatherings/art openings that are catered and really fun! The place is spotless and I saw people cleaning all of the time. They have great equipment, great classes, and great customers. The space is really well organized and I felt comfortable in all spaces, including the benches for weight lifting! I recommend this gym to graduate students especially! Free coffee and a workspace made working out fit more regularly into my schedule!

Cleanest atmosphere I've ever seen for the fitness. There's 2 day free trial before you can make up your mind. Barbara gave a warm welcome and she's very nice. Highly recommend.

This gym is amazing!! It feels more like a spa since they offer a steam room, a sauna, cryotherapy, personal training, classes, Pilates, towel service, and the friendliest staff!! Plus they offer free coffee and tea! The atmosphere is calming and welcoming. A must try!!!!

Honestly, this is the best gym I have ever belonged to. Wonderful staff, attractive and comfortable environment. Great classes, shout out to Lindsay for her yoga sessions and private yoga training and my trainer Kevin Mangini! Three-plus years and still counting.

I've been going to mActivity for a little over a year and really love this gym. Although it seems small, the gym has everything you need and I've never had to wait to use equipment. The space is VERY clean, has a good atmosphere, and the staff is kind and professional. It's a nice, upscale gym with features that include a wet and a dry sauna.

MActivity offers tons of exercise opportunities for everyone. I am amazed at the amount and diversity of the exercise equipment. You could never run out of things to do. The classes I have taken are very good. The culture is diverse and welcoming. I have been working with a trainer and have made great progress in overcoming injury. The price is amazing for all they have to offer. Highly recommend!

mActivity is undoubtedly the best gym there is. Clean, welcoming staff, fully-equipped - this New Haven gem is worth the trip and commitment. I cannot stress enough how much this place made my fitness journey that much more enjoyable. If you are looking for a top-rate gym with top-rate people, look no further.

I adore this gym. The vibe is clean and healthy and uplifting and I’m just happy when I’m there! Literally everything I could ever want is in this gym, the weights and machines are phenomenal and the group classes are amazing!

Also all of the amenities are seriously unreal. The sauna and the steam room are both amazing but the new cryotherapy is a whole other level.

I hate being cold so I was hesitant to try it but HOT DANG the energy it gives you before a workout is like endogenous prework out!

mActivity is seriously my happy place!
