YouFit Gyms North Lauderdale — Local services in North Lauderdale

I love this gym very much and pretty much started coming here since they opened. I used to love using the PT section because of the privacy. It is usually uncomfortable for a woman, whether fit or not, to work out in front of a lot of people. Working out comfortably is a main thing for me. I even left other gyms for this one because of the ability to use the PT section. Yes, there are other "areas" in the gym that you can work out in, but the space is limited and usually there are people right in front of you. (If you see the pictures, you'll know what I mean). Since it became off limits and to personal trainers only, I admit that I would sneak in the studio/class area and do my stretching and some workouts there, but of course, you're not allowed to be in there unless there's a class in session. This is unfortunate because like I said, being comfortable is everything for me. It is the reason I signed up to Youfit. The Cinema room is amazing, and the people there are just wonderful!! I did get kicked out of the studio room (twice, I'm sorry) and I know they are just doing their job, but I've been approached several times by people there (non-employees) making inappropriate comments and/or suggestions, or all of a sudden "try to help me" without my consent. Who wouldn't get uncomfortable or feel awkward about that?? I never had the problem before because I would mind my own business and did my stretches in the PT section along with my squats (perfect example because it's true) and other workouts. Now, I wouldn't say that this is a deal breaker, but I would want Youfit (particularly this one) to consider opening up the PT area for everyone. If you ever been to the one on Sunrise, Margate, and Ramblewood/Coral Springs, there is a corner to do these types of stretches and workouts, and it's private. Yes, I can always go to another Youfit because I am a Lime member but the equipment and customer service is much better in this location (plus, who doesn't love the cinema room). I will see if anything changes with using they PT/Class Room areas for all members (at anytime or even after a certain amount of time. Using it at 9 p.m. was no problem for me at all), because like I said, being comfortable is important for me. And I want to be able to workout privately sometimes. I dont just want to do machines all the time. I'm a member to get a good workout in, but I would want to be able to stretch or work on my glutes in private sometimes because I'm just not comfortable in doing in front of people who are working out right in front me. I still love this gym but I think there are improvements to be made. There are some women and men that I am pretty sure feel the way that I do, and there are people that this could be a no-go for them. It is certainly something...

My 17 year old son practically lives at Youfit in North Lauderdale. He goes to exercise almost every day. He loves the staff, the positive vibe and machines. He has even made some great friends there. On the night approximately 7pm, of Thursday April 17, 2025; after leaving this Youfit my son goes to unchain his electric scooter, which was chained to the outdoor bicycle rack, only to realize it was stolen. He automatically went into complete panic and devastation. Realizing his electric scooter was stolen, he reentered the gym only to be told by the staff, his electric scooter was not their responsibility, there are no cameras outside and he should call the police. My son was devastated by the non supportive staff, who went back to doing their job. He then called me upset, totally devastated and I ( his mom)came to pick him up. The next day after work, I decided to stop by this Youfit to talk to the manager. Upon talking to Judy, the manager, a very passive manager, she too said the company is only concerned about what happens inside the facility, there are no cameras on the outside and they aren’t responsible for my son’s stolen chained electric scooter. I told her my son’s name, she automatically knew who he was. I then told her I was considering canceling his contract due to the unsafe environment and their non supportive manner. This deeply saddens me, to say the least. You mean to tell me, my son who is deeply interested and loves coming to your facility, mind you, could have chosen any other exercise facility but chose this facility, has his chained electric scooter stolen from in-front of your facility, only to be told there are no cameras, they are not responsible and to call the police. I would only hope and pray this Youfit facility would consider installing cameras and care for the safety of their clients, both inside and outside their facility. They encourage a healthy lifestyle with exercise but yet won’t install outdoor cameras to keep their clients safe. My son is so devastated, he is scared to return to Youfit North Lauderdale. My son hasn’t returned to YouFit out of fear his new scooter will get stolen, company refuses to up up outdoor...

Update 09/25 Thank you so much, Vinnie, for your hard work, consistency, and dedication as my performance trainer! Since working with you, I’ve seen a complete transformation in my endurance and confidence. I can proudly say I now run 2 miles nonstop—something I never thought I’d achieve—and I’m only 2 minutes and 15 seconds away from hitting my first 2-mile time goal. You’ve helped me decrease my run time from 35 minutes to 25 minutes, and the progress feels incredible. Beyond the numbers, you’ve pushed me to believe in myself, stay disciplined, and keep improving every session. Your knowledge, motivation, and ability to tailor training to my needs make all the difference.

10/10 highly recommend Vinnie to anyone looking for a trainer who truly cares about results and client success!

03/25 first trainer To My Amazing Trainer,

I can’t say enough about how much I love training with my FANTASTIC trainer, Carolina! When I returned to the Youfit, I was determined to build consistency and finally reach my weight loss goal. Out of all the trainers, Carolina stood out—I felt an instant connection with her. I specifically requested to work with her and even waited two weeks for my first consultation. From that very first meeting, I knew I had made the right choice, and I immediately signed on. I looked forward to every session from that point on.

In the beginning, maintaining a consistent schedule was a real challenge. What I appreciate most about Carolina is her patience and unwavering support. She held me accountable, constantly checked in on me, and sent gentle reminders throughout the week to ensure I made the most of my training sessions.

Fast forward four months, and I feel stronger than ever! I no longer fear solo workouts because of the confidence and knowledge Carolina has given me.

If you’re looking for a trainer who is patient, kind, compassionate, and genuinely invested in your success, look no further—Carolina is the one.

Carolina, thank you for everything you do. You inspire and uplift, and I’m so grateful for you. Never stop being the amazing person and trainer that you...
