What Our Member Says

Don’t just take our word for it. See what our members love about Instinct Fitness.

Instinct Thordon is honestly hands down is the best gym, and I am proud to be a member of this community. The community spirit is like no other that I’ve experienced at other gyms, members are welcoming, it’s an inclusive gym, encouraging and supporting each other no matter the level you are at and most importantly having fun. The coaches are friendly, approachable, skilled athletes supporting and encouraging us in the gym to strive for our personal best and achieve our individual goals. Each week one of the coaches will post bright spots of the week to celebrate members, it brings a smile to everyone and is the best read each week. Thank you and we appreciate you! I love going to the gym each day to see my friends.

I have just completed the on-ramp programme here. An awesome experience! I had the usual apprehension about stepping into the crossfit space for the first time but everyone has been incredibly welcoming. A big focus on whanaungatanga. Ngā mihi ki a koutou ✌🏾

I’ve been a member of this gym for 5 years and it’s become a crucial part of my daily routine.
The coaches are professional and encouraging, the community is supportive, and many members have become close friends.
A word of warning though, if you join this gym, a regular gym just wont cut it anymore!
