Academy of Lions

Amazing gym for all sorts of crossfit. For me, I love it for Olympic Weighlifting! It’s difficult to find an OLY gym in downtown but this one checks off all the boxes. The coaches are awesome, Justin is the best of the best!

I can’t NOT give them a five star! Academy of Lions welcomed me with open arms for my open gym needs, since I had a coach and a personalized program. They have an area to get changed, a clean bathroom at all times, and more than enough open space to train. Don’t forget the bar in the lobby for coffee and protein needs. The owners and the administration were more than helpful when I wanted an extension of a couple of days before I left. In conclusion, the place is big, clean, and well equipped. The classes are beyond trained and are extremely fun! It’s three floors filled with space and different classes. I wish I had that in Florida! AOL, thank you for taking good care of me. I will be back!

Fantastic gym. If you're serious about pushing your limits or just interested in learning how to move and use your body efficiently; this is the place. Classes feel like personal training sessions. Dedicated and knowledgeable staff. Ample space. Plenty of equipment. No distracting mirrors. Academy provides a safe place to learn and grow. With a staff and community dedicated to physical health. It's cool to be a gym nerd at Lions.

This is a pretty good gym, especially if one is looking for a more social gym. I didn't spend that much time in it, but my short interactions with their staff and the people that work there were pretty good. I feel like they put a lot of effort into making sure that it is an enjoyable experience for all. It is unfortunate that I will not be able to go here due to certain distance concerns. More importantly, I would also like to say that the staff at the front desk is amazing. I always always ask questions at the front desk with any place that I'm looking to do business with, and in this case, this has been one of the best experiences I've ever had. They sold me on the idea of the gym very well, they were knowledgeable about literally everything.

This is by far the best crossfit gym in downtown Toronto. The coaching is amazing - everyone is highly knowledgeable, they have specialty coaches in gymnastics, olympic lifting, mobility, stick mobility and strength and conditioning. The atmosphere is friendly and inclusive but also cool. And the community is outstanding. Even if you just drop by for a coffee in the cafe, this is a fun place to hang out for an hour. But take a class! You won't regret it!
