WHY OUR MEMBERS CHOOSE TRUTH OVER OTHER GYMS
Amazing equipment and people. The best gym in Victoria!!!
My favourite gym ever!! Best equipment and great vibes
Since the day I signed up at Truth, Jordan has surpassed every expectation. Not only did he make the time to show me around, he also made sure I was familiar with how the training equipment was organized. Too bad there are not two Jordans to cover all the shifts.
Best gym in town. Friendly staff. Stellar equipment and layout. Love it.
Walking into any gym as a complete beginner — especially with weight training — was intimidating. After losing 75 pounds, I knew I was ready for the next step and I started working out with a friend but I didn’t realize how much guidance I still needed.
I had been training at Truth for a few months when I won a complimentary session at a charity event.
That’s when I met Yemi — and he turned out to be the missing piece in my fitness journey.
Every session with him was purposeful, structured, and incredibly informative. He clearly mapped out our weekly training plan and guided me through each set with intention.
He didn’t just tell me what to do — he explained why we were doing it, what muscles should be engaged, and what proper execution actually feels and looks like.
Yemi corrected my form with patience and precision. He helped me slow down, connect to the muscles I was working, and recognize the subtle ways my body shows fatigue — things I had never noticed before. That level of attention changed everything for me.
But what truly sets him apart is how he makes you feel.
Working with a trainer can be vulnerable and intimidating, especially when you’re still building confidence. Yemi created a space that felt safe, encouraging, and empowering. In one of our final sessions, he said something that will stay with me for life:
“You’re allowed to take up space.”
That simple statement gave me something I didn’t even realize I was missing — confidence.
If you’re looking for a trainer who is knowledgeable, intuitive, kind, and knows exactly how to push you the right amount, I cannot recommend Yemi highly enough. He doesn’t just build strength — he builds belief.

Getting Here from James Bay
Truth Gym Gallery is just a short trip north-west of James Bay, located in the Vic West neighbourhood. Here’s how to get from James Bay to your new training home.
How do I get here by car from James Bay?
From James Bay, head north along Government Street or Douglas Street toward downtown, then turn west onto Johnson Street and cross the Johnson Street Bridge into Vic West. Turn right onto Alston Street — we’re right there on your left. The entire drive is about 7 minutes with straightforward routing. We have a dedicated parking lot for members directly in front of the building. Note: Please ensure you register your vehicle at the front desk to receive your parking pass.
How do I get here by bus from James Bay?
From James Bay, catch BC Transit Route #31 or #32 toward downtown, then transfer to Routes #14 or #15 heading toward Esquimalt. Both routes stop along Esquimalt Road, just a short 5-minute walk from the gym entrance. You can also walk to downtown transit hubs along Douglas Street to connect directly.
Can I walk or cycle from James Bay?
Absolutely. The walk from James Bay through downtown and across the Johnson Street Bridge takes roughly 20–25 minutes and follows the scenic harbour pathway. If you’re cycling, the ride is quick and flat — follow the waterfront path or connect to the Galloping Goose Trail via the bridge. We have bike storage available at the facility.
