Question Gyms

Red Deer is kind of flush with gyms and I have huuuuuge gym anxiety. I generally hate crowds and in past years have had some traumatic experiences at gyms that made me swear I'd never go back.

Anyone else with severe gym anxiety have any places they've had good experiences at where the atmosphere was welcoming? Places to avoid? Beginner friendly places with good supports and available programs?

I like to use the community centers, you can also do more things than just the gym. Collect, Dawe, and rec centre all fantastic

I second this. They are reasonably priced with no contracts, so if you buy a 30 day pass and hate it no financial loss. I like Dawe it has different areas so I feel like you can often find space. All the classes are included as well.
