Where Locals Work Out: Best [6] Gyms and Fitness Centers in Oakleigh East, Victoria

jake M Do not come to this gym. The male facilities are so disgusting and so not to health standards. Let alone the gym cleanliness. The gym has a thick layer of dust on every machine, from dust to sweat to god knows what, and yet the staff do nothing about it. I have complained multiple times even emailed and no response no action. The dust in the gym I can understand to a point, but the male change rooms and toilets are actually a joke. The constant smell of urine and shit, is so unbearable the showers are so disgusting from the smell of actually poo and hair bandaids and underwear left in the shower block. The grim on the floor and walls is so thick that it’s green and actual slimy! It’s by far the worst I have ever seen. A bandaid has been in the shower floor for 6 days now and staff were notified. The toilets are so disgusting as well with shit stains and a urine stain so thick it’s brown yet still staff do not clean it. Now we move onto the sauna, which is disgusting. The thermostat is hanging off the wall for its life, the floor is covered in black grime, the wooden benches have a thick layer of sweat and black grime its gross. The sinks and basin is disgusting from cracks breaks poor silicon jobs and just dirt it makes you not want to wash your hands, even the hand dryer is covered in grime and black sludge from never being wiped down and cleaned the wall has clear stains and outlines. Now for a 24 hour staffed gym I have never seen a lack of care from staff. Weights are all over the gym left in corners plates in walkways it’s actually a joke. I have been in the industry for a long time, and I understand a lot of responsibility is to on its patrons to use it correctly and put the weights away and to wipe down machines when finished, but this is beyond that. Derrimut has a duty of care to keep and uphold sanitary standards and health standards to keep their gym clean. Please do better I cannot stand this and I’m sure I’m not the only one. I beg for you to shut the gym for 1 day and just give it a deep clean, a full bio clean that it needs. Take the time and make the gym great again. Please This review was months ago! I got back from a holiday today first session back and this is the state of the gym absolutely disgusting!!!

Mohaimenuzzaman Md (Mohaimen) So dirty and smelly… Sweat everywhere in the equipments. It is extremely unlikely that you will get tissue to clean before and after your workout. You will not even get it from the front desk as well. You will hopefully catch allergic and skin disease if you continue here. Cheaper membership makes it so crowded but absolutely no hygiene… you will regret if you go to the toilets, bathrooms and sauna… they are barely cleaned.

Maria Jose GH B. I found this one of the best Zap gym, lots of machines in good condition! Weight area is spacious with many mirrors. Always clean and tidy. It has dead lift and squat area, it counts with an Smith machine, bench press, a TRX station, and plenty of cable operated workout station. And many cardio alternatives! Parking available! Highly recommended!

Stu Gray Ability to get around between the equipment. I dont have a lot of time on Saturday mornings & the fact that *mostly* there arent people sitting on equipment flicking through insta is a big plus.

Engin Erakman Mustang BJJ Australia is an amazing gym! My 8-year-old son has been training here for over a year and absolutely loves it. Coach Jung is an excellent instructor—experienced, patient, and great with kids. He teaches not only BJJ technique but also discipline, respect, and confidence. The gym is always spotless, well-organized, and has a great family-friendly atmosphere. The community is welcoming, and every class is run professionally. Highly recommend Mustang BJJ to anyone looking for expert coaching in a clean, safe, and positive environment!

Elva Wang My son has been training BJJ with Coach Jung for 2 years, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Coach Jung is incredibly patient, professional, and truly cares about each student’s progress. He creates a positive and supportive environment where kids not only learn self-defence and discipline but also build confidence and respect. It’s amazing to see how much my son has grown — both on and off the mats — thanks to Coach. Highly recommend his classes to anyone looking for a great BJJ coach and an encouraging place for kids to train!

Cin Sab The other kids were friendly and welcoming, which was a big plus. The environment is structured, and one of the male instructors was kind and patient. However, on my son’s first day, the female mentor was blunt and didn’t seem very warm or patient. My shy son, who didn’t know her yet, felt embarrassed and compared to others, which affected his confidence. We understand that discipline is important, and structure helps kids learn. However, it’s equally important to deliver discipline with warmth and patience, especially for children who are shy or new. Encouragement builds confidence better than pressure or comparisons. First impressions matter a lot, and we hope the program can be more encouraging in the future.

KIM WONG We have been coming to deshi do for about a year now since my son was 4 and it has been such a positive experience. Our son was quite hesitant and shy when he first joined and refused to join in some of the exercises but sensei Sofy was so patient and kind and made the classes fun and encouraging that after the first few classes he settled right in and now looks forward to his karate classes all the time. Sensei Perry is also such a lovely man and both him and Sensei Sofy are just very warm and welcoming. I highly recommend deshi do especially if you have young kids, my son definitely needs some time to settle in new environments and Im so glad we found deshi do as its so important to have someone understand the little ones behaviors and encourages the best in them.

Mae Chyi Tan I am so glad to have Coach Jacky as my first personal trainer! From the very beginning, he has taken the time to understand my goals and crafted each session to help me meet them. In just 6 weeks, I have already seen noticeable strength gains and feel fully supported throughout my fitness journey. If you are looking for a personal trainer who is genuinely supportive about your growth, I cannot recommend Coach Jacky enough.
