TELOS Fitness Center

It’s a 5 stars when it comes to fitness centers.
I believe this is the only location they have.
Mainly adults (20+) crowed and hardly ever anyone younger than that.
Although you don’t have to, but many of the members here use their in-​house personal trainers (price range from $ 80 to $ 300 an hour).
They have a decent number of group classes that get published every month on their web site. Most of them are free with the monthly subscription.
Equipments are always in a good condition. Their shower and sauna areas are clean.
Their café is healthy and the food tastes good. You can pre order your meal from the locker room. Kinda cool.

I was here for a bootcamp class a hot minute ago… but I must say this is an incredible gym! I think most people want to get what they pay for In terms of fitness centers… and this one definitely delivers. There are a plethora of classes to choose from, fancy equipment and it’s very clean. Plenty of parking too. Gyms like this definitely make me feel all VIP! It’s a tad far for me convenience wise. But as a fitness enthusiast, without a doubt I’d love to come back and check out a class soon. I hear the yoga and pilates sessions are awesome.

Toured this place for membership. When I first called– upfront fee was $ 450. And monthly was $ 115… By the time we got done «negotiating» i guess you could say– it was $ 150 upfront and $ 75/​mo with one month free. Seemed like the more i told her i couldn’t afford it. The more freebies i got. When i went there it was old and drab. More resembled my grandmas home décor than a gym. Which hey some people are into that… The tour lasted all of five minutes before i told her my thoughts… She asked if i wanted to see more and i told her no and walked out. She was very sweet but not much of a sales person. This gym has a great location… And looks like it use to be nice. But just so quiet, low energy and drab now… Should remodel then maybe ill sign up. Plus no follow up from sales team!!!

I was a little leery of trying this place because the logo looks like this is the place where you go to wait for the spaceship to pick you up. However, I was impressed with the place. It’s like Lifetime Athletic gone Vegas, it’s got a lot of resources to help you get you to where you want to go. I see a lot of older people here. Makes sense because of the time I workout (around lunch time). Also makes sense because of the location, this place is half way to Frisco. Being a fancy place out in the burbs is not going to attract the young hip crowd like LA fitness.
Telos is greek for complete. Sticking to the Grecian theme, the whole place is bedecked with various architectural details that pay homage to ancient Greece. This place feels like one of the casinos in Vegas. They’re imitation Corinthian columns, but it’s a quality imitation. When you walk in it feels more like a hotel. The guy who takes your member card is wearing a dress shirt and tie instead of workout clothes. There’s a bar/​restaurant across from the front entrance, and the sales people’s work spaces are all fancy with frosted glass and stuff. To better give you an idea of the feel of the place, they have conference rooms, a salon, a chiropractor, and massage therapists all working here.
Layout
They have four different levels, the top is a track and a few other weights. The ground floor has «the Coliseum». This is where you have a circle of cardio machines all facing inward to the weight machines. They have two squat racks and bench racks. This place feels more like it’s slanted for physical therapy, but they have dumbbells that go all the way up to 150 pounds. Impressive. The first below-​ground floor is where you will find the pilates equipment, more cardio machines, some other balancing/​weight equipment, and the salon, chiro, and massage tables. The second basement is where they have the fencing club, squash courts, and my personal favorite: a squash court that’s filled with functional movement equipment. Basically, it’s a small crossfit box. It’s absolute silence in there. When I worked out the first time the bench racks in the Coliseum were being used so I had to go down to this room to lift. It was also nice to do deadlifts here as well.
I should also mention the pool. They have a very resort looking pool. I was unable to enjoy it because of the polar vortex, but one thing the pictures do not show is that because this place is right next to the Tollway you have a lot, and I mean a lot, of noise. Not really that relaxing, but it sure does look sweet.
Classes
They do have a lot of classes, although the yoga/​pilates classes are $ 5 apiece (at least with the basic package). They also have some other therapy/​personal training classes that cost even more. I didn’t get a chance to try out any of these because I’m not interested in any of the free classes. The free ones are the Zumba/​shredded/​boot camp classes. Right now I’m just relying on sprinting to work on my conditioning, so I don’t really want to work on slow steady state stuff.
Locker Rooms
Very nice, very posh. It has a classic feel like Tom Landry. You have hot tubs with big screen TVs overlooking them. You have armchair recliners with big screens showing ESPN. They also provide everything you would need to shower/​shave. This is also the ONLY place I have been to that offers aftershave!!! That is amazing. It doesn’t feel like a spa, but it does feel luxurious.

I certainly miss being a member here! I joined because of its proximity to my office at the time, and really needed an indoor track. Wow. What a FANTASTIC GYM! Equinox can kick rocks, THIS place has it all. Plus, no «douchebaggery» here, no issue with people coming to look good and not work out. It is pricey, but not as much as competitors, in my opinion worth the money! The amenities are amazing! Clawfoot whirlpool tubs in the ladies room! Also has a food bar if you’re running late to work or too tired to stop anywhere, you can place an order from the locker room! Plus there is a salon, a tailor, and a juice bar here!
One HUGE bonus for me — assigned locker with laundry service! Worth the extra money, I had NO issues with forgetting shoes or ever being out of clothes. I kept all my necessities there, and my clothes were always washed and ready to goin my locker the next day! I never had to drag a gym bag back and forth which kept me more focused on going and less on «what to pack, wash, carry, wear.» Taking out that factor was key to my success there.
Finally the trainers… amazing. Highly knowledgeable on how the body works and will find all your muscular and structural weaknesses with a holistic type approach and put you on a program to work on those areas to strengthen you. To me, is more than a gym, it’s a place that helps a busy person or even a retired person to live a healthy lifestyle and keep their body functioning beyond «aesthetics.»

Arguably the best gym in the DFW area… if you can afford it. Top notch facilities, the latest and greatest equipment, and a nice café to go along with a heated outdoor pool. Free towel service goes great with the hot tub/​sauna/​steam room provisions in the locker room. The only downside in my option besides the $$$ is the lack of a basketball court — keeps out one type of crowd, brings in another.

The BEST quality (ambiance, challenging classes, knowledge, skill, etc.) Fitness facility in the USA! I’ve been an Instructor for TELOS for approx. 8 years and love to be challenged by my environment «Directors, Staff & Members» which allows me to grow as a professional within the Fitness & Dance Industry of today. Don’t just know your material (presentation), BE your product of passion!

I’ve never seen a gym like this!
This unsuspecting gym nestled right by the Galleria houses an insane amount of options for guests to enjoy.
On top of new equipment and machines there are little «shops» making Telos your one stop spot.
A custom clothier? Check. Body bar, one of Dallas top pilates studios? Yep. A juice bar? You’ve got it! Not to mention a hair salon, med spa, outdoor pool, conference rooms and more. Insane!
Telos is like a mall of health and fitness for Dallas. The best part? Membership isn’t ridiculously expensive.
The only downside to Telos is that there isn’t another location downtown!

I have gone to grab breakfast/​lunch here for years. Healthy food with great taste. First was Caesar’s Café, now known as Chalk Bar & Grill. Call ahead and your lunch is ready in about 10 mins. Great fish tacos, grilled chicken and tilapia. There menu lists calories, carbs, fat, fiber etc.

Only went for the yoga class… got an awesome practice in and enjoyed the instructor, I think it was Susie. Cute Room and nice atmostphere. I am not a member here but they let you drop in for a class and I was with a friend back in September. They did not let us access any other part of the facility. Which was fine I can understand safety etc. The pilates room looked Fantastic as well.

The best gym experience! Very clean fitness equipment and locker rooms, great staff; in-​house pilates, yoga, chiropractor, nutritionist, salon, workout attire, child care, café, massage therapy… the only thing missing is your desire for healthy lifestyle.
I’m the biggest fan of TELOS Yoga classes. Every class is intense and will get into shape fast! Don’t worry if you’re just starting out, all levels attend.
The locker rooms include full size lockers, hair dryers, sauna, soaking tubs, showers, and basic toiletries. Everything you need to get ready for work or the drive home after the gym.
You won’t be disappointed at TELOS

This is THE place to work out in if you’re anywhere near north Dallas. Actually, my friends from Highland Park work out here, so location really isn’t an issue.
Everett, one of the owners, is probably the most knowledgeable fitness expert I’ve ever met (and I’ve trained with a lot of them). They use MAT therapy in conjunction with their training, which is amazing but can make you lazy. «Hey Glenn, my shoulder hurts.» Glenn: «Uh oh, we better have a look at it. Stop what you’re doing.» You figure out this loophole pretty darn quick. I mean, who wouldn’t want to trade a set of lunges for a massage table?
The best thing about the training is how particular they are about proper body alignment and form. This made a lot of difference when I was training for my last marathon.
So what’s the catch? Well, it’s a bit pricey. Training runs from $ 85 an hour up to $ 350 if you see grandmaster Everett. Ouch! And the memberships are north of $ 100 per month. But they have a great locker service. Leave your smelly workout clothes there and they will have them clean and back in your locker for your next visit. Thatsa nice!
Hmm, wonder if they’re running any slow economy specials?

High end fitness center that has it all. and I mean all. Three floors of hardcore fitness. From the outside it blends in perfectly to the surrounding other businesses, but on the inside is what sets it apart. A full service café, message therapy, sauna, steam room, personal training that is one of the best programs in the United States.
Don’t be intimidated by this place, friendly staff, and by the end of your first week they will know your name. Need to get your wife a gym membership, they have child care, and a salon, oh wait get a custom spray tan, all in one. Men no worries, plasma TVs in your locker room, all around.
This is where you need to be if you want to get in with the mavs dancers they workout and practice here, special appearances made by the mavs maniacs as well. check it out the sales and marketing department is the place to hang out.
