Goodlife Fitness gyms in Ontario will not be opening on June 29 as the organization originally announced. 

Gyms in Ontario are still waiting for government approval to open their doors due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. 

GoodLife Fitness locations are opening on a province-by-province basis, as to adhere to coronavirus restrictions. 

In early June, GoodLife had announced that their gyms in most of Ontario would be open on June 29, but some members are saying they received an email this week from the company stating that they would not be opened by then.

Locations in Manitoba, British Columbia, and New Brunswick opened on Monday, with other GoodLife Fitness gyms in Canada opening on June 29, with the exception of those in Ontario. 

Under Stage 2 restrictions, only outdoor gyms are allowed to be open in our province.
