Tmpl is the best gym in the area. It has a unique layout with multiple floors, more than enough weightlifting equipment, and an accommodating staff. After going to over crowded gyms in nyc for the past year, tmpl has helped me enjoy my lifts again.

TMPL is an amazing gym. The facilities are very clean and the crew are very welcoming and inviting! If you begin to be a regular they know you by name, you become family! Steven is a kind and delivers great costumer service! If doesn’t have an answer he would definitely find it later and update you! A great place to be apart of! Just hope the spin department works out! We love spin Templ!!!!

This gym is the absolute best! They have an extensive array of equipment that covers every body area to work on. My trainer Joe has completely changed my life overall. When I started here I was out of shape with not much direction on how to improve. Through working with him I have gotten into the best shape that I’ve ever been in. I cannot overstate how much joining TMPL and working with trainers like Joe can change everything.

TMPL Fitness on Avenue A is an outstanding gym. The space is clean, modern, and extremely well-maintained, and the sauna is a great bonus. This gym was NYSC before TMPL took over and completely transformed it. The gym feels so good to train in that it’s hard to enjoy other gyms now. The location is also very convenient. Highly recommend

I visited TMPL Avenue A during my trip to NYC and had such a great experience. The gym has everything you need, the staff is super friendly, and the vibe is motivating from the moment you walk in. I tried my cousin Teresa’s Body Pump class and had an absolute blast. I’m planning to relocate to the city soon, and this would definitely be the gym I’d join.

I live in bushwick and had such a hard time finding a gym in my area that I liked. Blink was too crowded and I figured that as long as I was going to take transit to another part of Brooklyn I might as well check out TMPL in the east village. It’s been such a great experience. Friendly staff, always spotless, very rarely crowded, and a really cool aesthetic. I need to enjoy where I workout or else I won’t leave the house. TMPL has been a great investment for my fitness journey.

I’ve been working with personal trainers on and off for 2 years now. Put simply, Holden stands alone as the best. In the last month of working with Holden, I’ve had the most rewarding workouts of my life. Holden combines deep expertise in physiology and exercise science with genuine commitment to pushing his clients beyond what they think is possible. The result is walking home from a workout with confidence and a better understanding of how to optimize your time in the gym. I would recommend Holden to anyone, regardless of where you are in your weight lifting journey.

Sterling took the time to connect with me before my workout and get to know me. This meant a lot, customer service like this keeps me coming back.

I’m the type of person who can measure my life by what gym I was going to at a point in time - I usually go to a gym for 2-4 consecutive years, so any time I switch, it’s a pretty big change and carries some anxiety. Lucky for me, switching to this TMPL has been nothing short of incredible.. I love it here! The staff are so welcoming, helpful, and fun.

Updated review 9/2025:
Ode to TMPL Avenue A (song for Ala)
I’ve been going to New York City gyms for almost 30 years, and to TMPL Avenue A since early 2021.
What makes TMPL Avenue A so very special is the people who work there. There are not enough stars in the evening sky that I can bestow upon them.
At the reception, I am often greeted by Luís, Roxy or Raheem. Their beautiful smiles and warm welcome are sunshine on my day.
The trainers and teachers are always helpful and friendly. Even if you don’t train with them or take their classes, they will often offer enthusiastic hellos and words of encouragement. Kudos to Teddy, Greg, Josue, Madison, Naomi, Keeley, Tania, Suszannah and new hires Joe, Holden, and Justin.
My trainer, A.B., is the best trainer that I’ve ever had. He helped me get back into shape after Covid. I had a persistent frozen shoulder a couple of years ago. With A.B.’s guidance and patience, the shoulder returned to normal, and I avoided surgery. I had an appendectomy last year. A.B. kept checking up on me with calls and texts, and he helped me recover afterwards.
He knows how to work with older people and to work with who you are. I’ve had trainers in the past who’ve tried to make me train like they do and eat like they do because that’s what works for them. But everyone is different.
A.B. is incredibly knowledgeable. My knees were sore after my solo workouts. I showed A.B. what I was doing. He made a couple of minor adjustments to my routine and solved the problem.
He’s also a pleasure to be with . . . we can talk about anything—cooking, movies, relationships, and sports (even though he wears that unfortunate Yankees cap). Best of all, he has a mischievous sense of humor, and we laugh a lot.
General Manager Patty runs a smooth operation. I admire that no staff member at TMPL Avenue A is averse to picking up a stray towel, re-racking weights or replenishing the drinks cooler. If something is broken or not working, one just has to mention it to anybody on the team, and it gets fixed.
Ala, the wonderful Customer Services Manager at TMPL Avenue A, has been after me for a long time to post a review. (Ala has a funny accent. I think she’s from New Jersey.) I’ve resisted writing because I’m conflicted. While I’m enormously appreciative of the staff at TMPL Avenue A, I’m not very pleased with the corporate side of TMPL.
I was upset when they laid off their in-house cleaning crew, who were part of the Avenue A family, and outsourced the jobs. The housekeeping crew currently in place does an excellent job. But so did Brandon and Victor and their colleagues before them, and I miss them. Anyway, the gym is spotless most of the time.
TMPL also refuses to participate in the Silver Sneakers or Renew Active programs. Almost every other gym in New York City does. Why doesn’t TMPL?
There have been several general managers, customer service managers, and training managers in the 4 ½ years that I’ve been going to TMPL Avenue A. The constant upheaval can’t be good for employee morale, and it causes confusion among the membership. I worry that TMPL is becoming just another money-grubbing corporate gym.
For the moment though, TMPL Avenue A is a home away from home for me, and I always feel good when I’m there.

First review in 2022:
ABracadABra!
This is a really great gym. I got a monthly rate under $60 as a former NYSC member. The gym has been entirely renovated and upgraded. All the machines are new. Everyone there, Jane the manager, Luis and Hunter at the reception and Sam, Josue and Teddy on the training staff make you feel special. The ace housekeeping staff keeps the place immaculate. But for me, the brightest star at this gym is Abdias (Ab). I've been working with him for six months and it's one of the best decisions I ever made. Ab is charming and entertaining but also demanding. His workouts are challenging but he keeps them moving briskly and makes them fun. My time at TMPL - Avenue A is a highlight of my week.

An amazing experience from start to finish! The staff are genuinely the friendliest and the equipment is great, showers are super clean etc. Great weekly passes for those who are from out of town. Easily one of the best gyms I’ve trained at.

The strength training floor is uneven.

It slopes down from the walls toward the center of the floor. It’s especially noticeable in the squat rack and bench press / plate machine areas, meaning the left and right side of members’ bodies are getting an uneven workout, leading to an imbalance over time.

I told staff twice, who confirmed it, and months later nothing’s been done. Looking into new gyms.

This is a great gym. They have a great infrared sauna with enough space for like 8 people. Louis, Roxie and the rest of the staff are all great.
