Poor member services management. Currently held hostage by member services.

Equipment is ok but smaller than plant fitness and more expensive. They make it very difficult to cancel membership.

Finances/Membership: It wouldn’t be lying by saying Method is one of the more expensive memberships available in Saint Mary’s. However, while members might pay a little bit more for “luxury”, I think the facilities and equipment available make it decently worth it if you are capable of doing the thing dailyish. It’s slightly frustrating that they put participating in the “Group Fitness” behind a paywall (aka you will need upgrade your membership). In my opinion, community and human interaction at the gym should be centered around the daily user and easy communication/participation but hey what do I know, I’m just a stranger on the internet.

Responsibilities of Workers: In terms of how the workers treat the place and you, I have absolutely 0 complaints. In fact, I want to shout out both Tina and Elaine for not only facilitating a welcoming environment but for always keeping that place in check/clean. They both are very kind souls and their energy keeps me going to the gym!

I attended the mobility workshop with Coach Sara a few weeks ago, and absolutely loved it. She was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about making sure we take care of our bodies. I have been motivated to keep up with my body better since then. Would definitely attend another seminar by her.

Facility: For a time this location had an potent odor in there air vent, but I'm glad to say that it has finally been fixed.

Cleanliness: The facility is compact with plenty equipment and goes through varying cycles of crowding, which can be annoying for those with fitness goals.

Staff: The employees are pretty chill and polite. Maybe a little too lax on safety, I have seen people with slides and flip-flops lifting in the freeweight (dumbbell) section. I cringe because I know some people who have lost digits/toes in weight room accidents.

Overall: This location is fair. People are respectful of your space because (again) it can get crowded in certain areas pretty quick. Staff is friendly and do a good job of keeping the facility clean. All in all, I would recommend this gym to my peers suggesting that they come during those unpopular "down" hours.

This gymn has lots of equipment and is very clean. The cleaning staff do an amazing job and so friendly to us all. The trainers are amazing and very detailed to each person. What I can't handle is it being so hot in there. I don't mind sweating, but it's very difficult to breathe when the air is so hot. I like going to this one because it's close, but I might have to switch if this doesn't get fixed.

This gym has great equipment and atmosphere so I will say that’s a solid plus. I know it’s a local community staple!

I emailed the gym to inform them that the bathrooms are dirty and the same shower has remained uncleaned for over 3 weeks with the same exact curly hair and conditioner grime all over. If you’re going to work out fine, but the other amenities, I question if they are cleaned.

-update: they did FINALLY clean the showers per the comment on this review which is appreciated.

A great gym for long time gym goers as well as people just getting into fitness. Great community and atmosphere with extremely kind and personable staff. Good mix of free weight equipment, machines, and cables. Lastly my personal favorite, the cardio and aerobic areas. They have all the equipment you need for all your calisthenics, conditioning, and cardio needs and are very well maintained.

This is for the personal training specifically, from all the training I've done with 2 different trainers( Richard, Nick) they've completely turned my confidence around which I take completely personally. They've become my best friends and have made me gain 35 pounds of muscle in 1 year everything I lift has gotten severely heavier also. The gym is also clean and has a great community

I have been going to World Gym in Leonardtown for a about a year and a half and have enjoyed my time there. Heather has been my trainer and has been both informative and a pleasure to work with. She pushes me yet knows my limitations, so I feel safe in her capable hands.

I have been going to World gym is St. Mary’s county since 2015 and never had any problems that were not easily resolved, the staff is always very kind and helpful and take care of every hiccup gracefully. Since the end of 2021 I’ve had coaching sessions with Heather Hamtak and from our first meeting I’ve enjoyed every second or it, I absolutely love it… she works with my crazy schedule and she is very reliable. She makes every meeting fun, the times flies by and I feel stronger than ever. She is extremely creative, she is the only coach I’ve had that can make pain fun (lol), two sessions are NEVER the same and she makes workout plans for me for when I’m working out by myself, which helps me to stay consistent. Heather also helps me to stay consistent with my eating habits, she gives me food advice when I ask her and she will even join my goals when I have them so we truly work on them together … To summarize it she is awesome, she is not just a coach, she is a real friend and she truly cares.

A great community of people and trainers that help you with any type of fitness goal. I love the group fitness classes since I need motivation and a set day/time to workout in my schedule. My husband enjoys the machines and lifting weights. They do have childcare if we both wanted to go at the same time.

What else can I say about World gym? From the day I decided to walk through the door in November of 2021 to this present day showed me that I am able to join a place where people genuinely care about my health goals.

Anyone can come in and walk on the treadmill, lift some weights, do some aerobics or even ride on the bikes but if you're not taught the correct way to do those things by utilizing the muscles to target the results that you're hoping to achieve, you're just moving to say you moved for an hour or so😅.

My personal trainer, Coach Rich, demonstrates to me what muscles I will be using and the correct form to get the results that I want to achieve. Any questions that I have from working out to what foods are best for me are always answered thoroughly and never halfway. He make sure that I fully understand the concepts.

Thank you World gym in California and Leonardtown Maryland for riding out this journey with me and I'm truly thankful for such a great team by my side helping me.

The gym is ok, staff seems fine until you cancel your membership. They’ve been trying to make me pay for the services that I didn’t used. I spoke to guy over the phone to which he advises that in order for me to cancel my membership I have to cancel it in person to which I did. Im still receiving email from them telling me I owe money I told them my account has been cancelled for so many months now. Email still keeps coming. Stay away from this gym seriously.

This gym is probably one of the cleanest I’ve ever been to and although it’s on the smaller side it’s huge in character! Can’t wait to continue my fitness journey with all of the world gym staff!

If I could give this gym zero stars I would. I’ve been going to this gym since the doors opened 20 years ago. Since the new owners have taken over this place has completely gone downhill. The machines are old and the owners refuse to buy new ones. The cardio machines are either broken or the employees don’t even plug them in. The children working the front all have such bad attitudes, especially the girl with the red tips. They don’t greet you or even look at you for that matter. They’re constantly on their phones and will ignore anything you say to them — incredibly unprofessional. Not to mention, they’re now trying to charge customers to go to the World Gym in California, when it used to be free for all members. They are obviously money hungry because people are leaving their gym. I’ve discussed these issues with many customers, customers of 20 years like myself, and they’ve all said it’s time to cancel our memberships and go to Planet Fitness. Sadly, this is what it’s come too. I used to love going to this gym, but since the incoming owners, it’s on the decline. I wish they never took over because they have ruined my favorite gym.

World Gym Leonardtown has been great! The staff is awesome, it's always clean, and they're hours allow me to get a workout in on my schedule.

A specific shout-out to my trainer, Richard... He comes with the heat. Always friendly, always prepared, and his programming is flexible and targeted to my goals... He pushes me and is always adapting the workouts based on my feedback. Highly recommend working with the training staff. They're great!

Ive called, emailed, and done everything to get them to stop my month by month contract which was supposed to expire back in april/may

I have been charged the gym service fees and membership 5 times now past my first time stating in the middle of june, i understand that it was the middle of that month so i had to eat that charge. But since then ive called and asked again and again it’s unprofessional, theres never a manager there, and even now with the billing im getting hassled around. The place is a dump and so is the service. BBB is already notified, small claims is next.

Initially I left a 1 star review (see paragraph below) but I received a response from the owner who made a genuine effort to make things right. You can see I was offered some free services. They did set me up with a free month membership and during our communication Melissa and Patricia were very helpful. I was happy to see that since I was last in the gym, some clear expansions and improvements have been made. Also I was impressed with the attention to detail regarding sanitation and CDC guidelines. Professional, good communication, good business.

Haven’t used the gym since the Spring because of COVID. Noticed I had a normal monthly charge on 10/2. Went into the gym that day to cancel my membership. I was told they needed to charge me again to cancel my membership. So I was charged twice for the same amount on the same day- apparently the second charge was for the month of November. (Considering I was canceling on the day of a billing cycle that should have been the end of it.)That didn’t seem ethical considering I just told them o wouldn’t be using the gym again. I made them reassure me that I would not be charged again before I walked out of the gym. Yet I see another small charge in November. When I called, instead of an apology and correction, I was told I wasn’t charged the correct amount in October.
Long story short- poor customer service. Do your self a favor and workout at home during this risky pandemic and save your self the poor customer service while you are at it.

Since July, I have seen such a change in this location. I was a member before when it was results, and let's just say this place made the best decision when they went back to World Gym! I am in love with the friendly staff, the classes are awesome, I signed up in November, when I did I received an awesome Fitness Assessment from Johnny, After talking to him and getting a better understanding of PT, let's just say i signed up and have seen amazing results, there programs are perfect for anyone. If you haven't been i suggest you go, sign up, and get all the new perks of an amazing Gym.

As a member/visitor to most of the gyms in the southern Maryland area at one point in time, I can honestly say that this is the worst facility around. The staff do not foster an environment in which everyone feels welcome and the facilities were not clean. The employees hardly greeted me and were not helpful at all with any type of question I may have had. I was wrongfully charged for a gym membership that I cancelled a long time ago and the staff had no sympathy what so ever because the paperwork wasn't filed correctly on their end. I had a witness go in with me to cancel my membership. My bank statements also show that as soon as I transferred to the Mechanicsville World Gym (great gym by the way) that I had not stepped foot in the Leonardtown gym. I had not accrued any type of damage to their facilities and I had not taken up any gym space for that amount of time, but they did not care. I would not recommend this gym to anyone looking to better their life mentally and physically because they don't make you feel welcome. Once they get your signature you are a long term pay check - nothing else. I was in the wrong for not checking my bank statements thoroughly enough to follow up on THEIR mistake, but they are entirely unethical. Drive the extra mileage to a gym where all of the staff knows your name and are happy to assist you in anyway - the Mechanicsville World Gym.
