Rashila Patel I have been attending the PT sessions for some months, and my experience has been excellent. The sessions are appropriately challenging, providing a great workout without being overwhelming. Nida is a great instructor who takes the time to understand individual needs and tailors each session accordingly. Her professionalism and attention to detail make the sessions both effective and enjoyable. If you are looking for a PT I highly recommend Nida.

MTV PTV Very disappointing experience. The pool is always overcrowded, with far too many children in each class, making lessons chaotic and unproductive. Staff spend more time chatting to each other than supervising properly, and the manager doesn’t seem interested in what’s going on. Reception is poorly run. The staff constantly leave the desk to go back to the pool for conversations with instructors, leaving no one available to help customers. It looks completely unorganised and unprofessional. Many instructors have strong accents, which makes it hard for the younger children to understand instructions during lessons. Combined with the noise and crowding, it creates confusion and frustration. The changing rooms smell unpleasant and look like they haven’t had a proper clean in ages. The showers barely work, and the whole area feels neglected. Parking is also difficult, which adds to the poor experience. This place could be a great local pool if management actually cared about organisation, cleanliness, and customer service but at the moment, it feels like no one is paying attention.

Paula Robinson I had the RMR and VO2 testing with Damini. The session was very informative and useful, everything was explained and I was made to feel relaxed. The report after was very comprehensive and gave me a great understanding of where I am with my health and fitness. Practical actions were given to me on how to improve. Thank you.

Beatrice Conquest I have been practising yoga with Isabelle for over two years and thoroughly enjoy our weekly classes. They provide a perfect reset for the week. Isabelle offers clear, thoughtful instruction suitable for all levels, with appropriately challenging elements each session, followed by a restorative savasana that leaves you feeling relaxed and refreshed. I would highly recommend these classes to both beginners and more experienced yogis. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the group is friendly. I encourage anyone considering it to give it a try — you will not be disappointed.

Jane Bishop Empowering Yoga has made a profoundly positive difference to the quality of my life. My job is very stressful and Empowering Yoga and all that Joanne stands for helps me withstand the pressures, calms me and brings me back to myself. Joanne is the most knowledgeable and dedicated teacher - not only does she ensure her students physical progress - her carefully thought out classes improve our flexibility, strength and balance - but also our mental and spiritual health. I count myself very lucky to be part of her yogi community.

Judith Carter Lovely club with great facilities. Excellent for private parties. Ample parking. Lovely staff and reasonable bar prices. Highly recommend.
