Worked out here twice while I was in the city. Staff is super helpful and friendly. Equipment is clean and new. Gym itself wasn’t crowded which I liked very much. Will def. come here again next time. 1st time trial, 2nd time $30 for the day.

I remain impressed with Zūm Fitness. Zūm has always been different in a very positive way - while most gyms are all about taking in as much money as possible under the guise of health and fitness, Zūm has always been about improving the well-being of not only members, but staff and the greater community. It’s a welcoming group of highly skilled fitness professionals looking to help inspire true change.Unsurprisingly, Zūm has maintained a standard of excellence within the constraints of the pandemic. Rather than meeting bare minimum requirements, their staff came together to brainstorm how to best meet the needs of their members, resulting in a complete restructuring of their operating model.I’m honored to be a part of the Zūm community - it’s a place I feel safe and supported working out (even during a pandemic), and a community in which I feel any concerns I have are truly taken to heart. I really can’t recommend this group highly enough.

If you're looking for clean space, quality group class instruction, top-notch experienced trainers and a good non-gym vibe, this is your home. ZUM is the best fitness facility in Seattle, without question.

UPDATE: I've seen the company take great strides in the light of recent events and commend their forward thinking to keep everyone safe and healthy. They were amongst the first of many companies to offer creative solutions to protecting the continued health and safety of their clients and staff, offering live remote classes at home, keeping us informed via email, and detailing what steps they were taking to deep clean and sterilize the facility. They've shown that they are proactive rather than reactive, and I wanted to give my thanks.Previous-For location and convenience, zum currently works for us. The people here are friendly, staff and gym goers alike, but there have been too many upkeep issues lately that have really gotten to my partner and I. Namely, the cleanliness of the facility in whole, the poor quality of the towels, the state of the products in the locker room, and other minor things. They have replaced a few machines and added a cold towel mini fridge, but these don't make up for what needs to be changed and upkept - especially the mats and towels. It's also uncommonly warm in this gym, winter and summer alike.

Great gym for the variety of equipment and free classes. They have monkey bars, rowing machines, climbing and warrior ropes in addition to all the equipment one would normally expect. Not too difficult to get a squat rack or bench press even at peak hours. My one complaint is that I never attended the classes, and the classes were right next to the cardio equipment and pretty loud and would always happen right around 5/6 pm. But sometimes trainers would play good music so whatever. Locker rooms were pretty clean. Decent sauna. Overall good value.

I hate the gym, but I love this gym. The owners care about their gym-goers and will learn your name before your free week is over. They learn what works for you and what doesn’t and help you modify. This isn’t a gym with a lot of frills, but they do have some frills that count like a clean locker room and free-to-use mats in the yoga studio. I didn’t like that I had to commit to a certain amount of time when I signed up because my job comes with some chance of relocation, but they have a reasonable cancellation policy if you move more than 50 miles away. It didn’t end up mattering because of my job and I have not wanted to cancel for any other reason either. I’ll be coming back as long as I live in Seattle. Special thanks to Joe and Derek for all of their work with me!

This gym may be very elegant! Likely the nicest gymnasium I've used within the States. I suppose their instructions and their instructors are terrific, informed and green. I could need to deliver a special "shout out" to trainer/trainer. He is high-quality. I desire I may want to find the money for him!

I really don't want to write this review because I want to keep this gym all to myself, but I can't do that to this gym, as they are just too good, and I want them to succeed, just like they want me to succeed. It is a little pricier than other gyms, but you get every last bit of your money's worth. Let's talk about the staff - they are top tier professionals (that's you Laurie and Ta Wei!). They give me individual attention during classes to make sure my form is correct. They care about me. How do I know? First, they learned my name and they remembered it. They make extra time to discuss my goals and what is, or isn't, working. Liz (personal fitness coach) and Joe (the General Manager) carved extra time out of their schedules to work with me on a hip issue, and then discussed ways I could strengthen those muscles.....and then they both kept checking in with me! Liz even tailored the group exercises to focus on strengthen the muscles related to my hip issues (that would be my glutes, as she informed me). They push you to be your best self. Whenever I have an issue with my account, or some other concern, Derek (the Fitness Manager) meets with me in person, within 24 hours and made me feel heard.The cherry on top of this healthy banana split is that everyone that goes here is around my age (i.e. NOT 20), and they take their fitness seriously. Even the members are awesome. For example: I am shy, and at my first group class, one of the members introduced himself, and then kept giving me words of encouragement throughout the class, but not in an overbearing way.I feel like I sound like I was paid to do this, but I wasn't. This is one of those rare experiences that make you believe that there really are businesses that care about you and aren't just trying to fleece you. If you take your fitness seriously, you would be crazy to go to any other gym.

I hardly ever write reviews, but I have been working out at ZUM for nearly a year now and it is not an exaggeration to say ZUM and their team has advanced the quality of my life and health for the better, big time. First, the ZUM experience: while at first it could seem a bit intimidating at first, the facility is truly the best environment to workout anywhere in Seattle and I have over the years tried pretty much all of them, both public and private clubs. The combination of the generous space over two floors, the light from all three sides as well as huge skylights, the variety of serious and practical machines and equipment with the amazing warmup ‘runway’, the multitude of free classes coming with membership, BUT most of all is the great staff many of which become friends: they are truly dedicated to make you welcome, be your workout community, and most important to reach your fitness goals. My assigned advisor and trainer Rick, (with membership you get one evaluation and session free), set me up with a great program to reach what I thought at the time were more than aggressive goals. If he sees me during the week with not quite the right form or technique he happily coaches me gratis and inspires me to move beyond my goals, which I surprisingly have. ZUM says, ‘you are stronger than you think’.. and then they show you how with that positive constructive training community, the essence of ZUM. The facility is first rate, with a fairly roomy men’s locker room that has the only shower in Seattle with natural western light that I know of. A few lockers recently needed maintenance and were tweaked by Kevin, one of the many great staff that always makes one feel welcome. Favorite part of my week is to go work out at ZUM, best fitness center and value in Seattle. Highly recommend. Thanks ZUM!

I'll start with the easy stuff: Zum fitness is by far the best gym in the area. The staff are so welcoming and inviting, and staff like Kevin made me feel incredibly welcome during my time in the area.The amenities allow you to get your workout in during most parts of the day, and by the time you leave you'll be fresher than you were when you walked in.The equipment is impeccable, and the personal trainer devote 100% of their attention to you.10/10, wouldn't workout anywhere else.

The “special sauce” at Zum is the caliber of the staff. It’s a nice facility with a wide selection of free weights and machines, and they offer a variety of instructor-led classes at times that work for my office schedule. However, what impresses me the most is the people. My morning class instructors are ridiculously friendly and professional. When I need something from the office staff, I feel like I’m talking to a human being, not a distant stranger behind a corporate curtain. Finally, the General Manger, who leads an evening class that I attend, seems like someone who genuinely enjoys engaging with clients and helping them to meet their fitness goals. In my experience, it’s a high-quality operation, and the people are a pleasure to work with.

By far the best gym atmosphere I’ve ever been seen. Everyone is extremely friendly and helpful and you truly get a community feeling. At first I stuck to workouts on my own and the gym has more than everything that I needed for any movement. After 5 weeks of that I started signing up for classes and now I’m hooked. Whether you’re looking to get a good workout in or learn new strength techniques, I highly recommend this gym. Whether you’re looking for

I am the Medical Director for Wise Patient Internal Medicine. ZUM is a go-to for personal training for our patients, who range widely in their physical abilities and aspirations. Two of ZUM's senior trainers, Joe Deshaw and Liz Robinson, recently spent long hours with us developing a personal training sequence for us to include in our membership primary care model. Across the board our patients have been very happy with that experience. The entire team at ZUM seems to genuinely care where our patients' lives are going. Thank you ZUM!

Just finished up my free week trial and I've got to admit this place is awesome. The first floor has amble space to perform olympic lifts, with a huge (albeit a little uneven) platform. The upstairs is your pretty standard gym with cardio machines, free weights, fitness class space, etc. They apparently also have CrossFit classes held here if that's what you're into. As for the (women's) locker room, top of the line with showers, keypad lockers, and all the items you could possibly need from dry shampoo to curling irons. All the staff members were friendly and always willing to help. The manager was engaging and very responsive to email. If you're in the Seattle area, definitely give Zum a try.

Zum is awesome. I judge a gym on two things: Equipment selection and quality and background of the personal training staff (probably the latter if I'm being completely honest). Like the huge variety of equipment and toys, the depth and breadth of expert trainer specialties means Zum has something for every body at any fitness level.

I was visiting Seattle on an extended business trip and was looking for a good gym, something much more than the standard hotel setup. This place is fantastic! Its clean, bright and has a wonderful atmosphere. The staff are great and welcoming even though I was only going to be around for a week or so. I found the group fitness classes to be a nice change from my normal gym and a good challenge. The Crossfit class kicked my ass and left me wanting more. I will definitely be returning here on future trips. I can't recommend this place enough.
