We demand that Anytime Fitness NEX allow existing members to continue with free group classes until the end of their contract and also allow members whose contract have ended, but have yet to renew to only pay additional SGD$42.80 on a monthly basis to enjoy group classes, without having to purchase a physical activity tracker called MyZone. The purchase of a physical activity tracker should be optional for members who wants to track their fitness goals and not a mandatory device to attend group classes. Below is my personal experience with the gym and reason why I need to push for this.
I've been with Anytime Fitness NEX since September 2015. When I first joined the gym, there were only two options of membership to choose from, 12 months and 18 months, I opted for the 12 months one because, I didn't know what to expect and wasn't too sure if I'd be committed to it. During the registration process, the staff mentioned briefly about the complimentary classes that the gym has to offer. Initially, I didn't think much of the classes, because to me, the location and the facilities were crucial deciding factors. In addition, the price point was more of a concern and am pretty glad that it's within my budget.
As I started visiting the gym more often, I decided to give the classes a shot. I started out with their piloxing class and the rest was history. I started attending piloxing classes once a week, and then it became twice a week. Then I heard that the gym will introduced Pound classes and I was excited. The staff mentioned that the class will commence in Nov 2016, and so I decided to renew my contract, but this time, to a 18 months period. Because I was confident that Anytime Fitness NEX will not disappoint. I waited patiently for classes to start. November came and pass and there was no news about the class, so I decided to inquire about it and to my disappointment, the class had been postpone to Jan 2017. I told myself not to be dismay and I continued waiting. January came and pass, and nothing happened. I felt slightly dishearten but decided to give the gym the benefit of doubt. Perhaps they were having difficulties with starting the class.
Meanwhile, I decided to try out other classes like Bokwa and Strong by Zumba, and I begin to see the changes in my body.
However, one day, I received a message from my gym mate, mentioning the change in membership prices. She told me that in July, all classes will cease and there will no longer be any free classes thereafter. I was stunned to receive this information. Firstly, there ought to be an official communication from the gym on the stoppages of classes in July, but none of that was done. Secondly, Anytime Fitness NEX should have pre-empt all their existing members of the impending changes that the gym will be undergoing. But none of these were done.
The sudden increase in membership prices was a shocker to many of us. Anytime Fitness NEX redesigned their membership plans and introduced tier membership. There are 3 tiers in total and only the premium tier (the most expensive one) allows members to attend group classes. For existing members, a top up of $42.80 (with GST) on a monthly basis and the purchase of a physical activity tracker ($104.86, includes GST) becomes compulsory in order to attend classes. I've been a member for close to 2 years now and this change is so disappointing and unfair to members like me. When I renewed my membership for a longer term, there weren't any privileges given to me for being a devoted member. To be honest, I didn't think much of it but now, it's clear to see that Anytime Fitness do not appreciate their members, if they did, they would have done a simple survey to check ground sentiments before implementing this change.
I hope that this petition would help Anytime Fitness NEX understand how their negligence has taken a toll on their members and take into serious consideration what we've proposed. Thank you.

This is ridiculous. I didnt sign up for this myzone thing and I really dont want to pay extra for something i wont even use just to go to my regular class.
I would like to feedback few things here. Firstly is kickboxing class. I have been a member for 4 months, but not even a single of kickboxing class is taught. The reason is always the same that no students join or present. I was very disappointed with the decisision. Since no student most of the time, it will be better if we can change to other class, any type of class will be fine. Second, i would like to comment on the song or music that is being played in the gym. The song is too loud and is disturbing. Third, the sudden change of rules and regulation, i totally disagree with the new fee for new class. Classess are meant to be free for member who sign up the gym. Thats why we were told by the management at the first. Even they have put FREE CLASSES FOR MEMBER!! On the banner or sticker. I totally disagree for purchasing a device to monitor the hearbeat which will cost $98!! And it is a MUST!! Serious, its not necessary to use the device for the classes. Last but not not least, i do understand that you company is doing business, so i hope you can provide a room for the classes especially at night. Your students are growing and increasing. It is very difficult to practice and exercise. Some of us even practice outside on the carpet there near the gym equipment. I really hope anytime fitness nex management team or whoever handle this problem will really take our feedback seriously! It is really a shame when your management, rules and regulation keep changing! THANK YOU!!

I'm a member of Anytime Fitness. I would like to express my thought toward the new membership program that the gym is implementing. Firstly, I'm a member of the gym since last year November. My fiancee and I were interested in this gym as you guy offered free classes and equipment which suitable for both of us. I'm especially interested in your classes and that was why I join the gym. However, after 9 months of going for classes, i suddenly heard from my gym-mates that the gym is going to stop all the classes and if I would want to take classes, i will have to upgrade my membership. Secondly, other than the increasing of prices without the members' knowledge, we still have to buy a devide that in decades, athletics do not need to use for their training, people who aim to lose weight do no have to use it in other to see result of their hardwork. I personally tried this devide in road show and find it very distracting. Why do i have to run and check my heart rate at the same time instead of focusing on my breathing and how fast/far are should adjust my speed? And plus, the cost of this device is not cheap, and we DID NOT ASK FOR IT. Also, I have heard that the gym is making this a compulsary thing. Thirdly, I have notice that the management have been doing changes without any notice to the members of the gym. For example, the changing of payment method, there wasn't any email, message or any official announcement was made to notice member of this changes. Same for this case, I have to know it through my friends but not the gym management. I also heard from my friends that the management might not consider our feedback regarding this new change as there were only 3 complains. That is because NOT ALL THE GYM MEMBERS ARE AWARE OF ALL THESE. I have signed up for this gym membership because I wanted to attend class. I HAVE BEEN PAYING FOR THOSE CLASSES ALREADY, and now I have to pay more with a reason that I don't think it's reasonable enough. When the gym co
