Fantastic experience: I can honestly say the management and the staff know how to treat the public. I come on a Saturday with my sister and the staff are always friendly make you feel welcome and always say hello or goodbye. If their having a bad day they don't show it. Keep up the good work.

Hélène Carpentier 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I think the classes are really good. All the coaches are very professional and very dynamic. I absolutely love the spin classes. I have been to many other providers in London and these spin classes are the best in my opinion. I like that the atmosphere is so supportive between members too, it just feels good to be in those classes. Maybe the gym area is a bit small, I do not use the changing rooms as I live nearby. I am yet to go to the swimming pool.

SHA'DELLE MOMUS 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is my 2nd visit to their water aerobics class and I loved it! This centre ticks a lot of boxes for me. It has plenty of parking, easy access and friendly/helpful staffs. The centre also is clean, tidy and the covid restrictions is mapped out well. My only problem is the expectation to put on the overshoes cover before going into the changing room with no seatings available, it is impossible to do so! Looking forward to going again!
