Yes, they will report to the credit bureau, but as the link I included below states, the Credit Bureaus know most Gym contracts are shady and will not post them to your report.

Gyms get around this by having a 3rd party company do their billing, along the lines of the Golds Gym/Paramount Acceptance angle in the link above. Paramount Acceptance isn't a Gym so the Credit Bureau posts it without thought.
Or the Gym can sell the remaining debt amount to a Collection Agency (my personal experience was with a "David Taylor and Assoc.") who then puts it on your report.
If you dispute this with Experian or any of the other Credit Bureaus, state specifically it is a Gym membership and it should come off your report within a couple weeks. As always check your credit report, and not with freecreditreport or one of those, use http://www.annualcreditreport.com which is a once a year free credit check through the reporting Bureaus themselves.

How long is the contract for a golds gym membership?
Membership varies, your choice from 3 months and up; of course, you decide depending upon how much of a commitment you feel comfortable with. Always remember, if you decide on a long term membership with any health club/gym, should you decide earlier than agreed upon to cease to attend, you are still financially responsible for the entire term of the contract. I had a friend who tried to sell their contract; but, failed to do so and had to pay out the entire contract to avoid future credit issues.

A gold gym membership is a good thing to have if you have the time to go to a gym and you have the money to pay for it. I believe that when you sign up for a gold gym mebership that it does not include martial arts training and if you want that then you have to pay extra for it.
