Barnet Copthall Leisure Centre - (Near Barnet, UK)

4 /5 nader fadaee: I have been going to this gym for more than 3 months now and can say that it’s actually a very good gym with quite a lot of specialist equipment for it’s size - loads of pull up bars, an assisted pull up machine, punching bags, skipping ropes and even a curved treadmill! It’s a great place to go if you’re into functional training. The staff there are all friendly, polite and helpful - readily engage clients throughout the day. The male changing rooms are quite spacious with good showers. I’m aware that copthall is renown for it’s swimming pools as it contains an Olympic size pool; a second pool for adults and one for small kids as well, though I haven’t used them of late

3 /5 Vahid Serpooshan: Copthall Leisure Centre has its strengths, but also some areas that really need improvement. Starting with the gym – it’s a decent size and has a good range of equipment, but it’s consistently overcrowded, especially during peak hours. Unfortunately, poor ventilation makes the space feel stuffy and uncomfortable, especially during intense workouts. It definitely could use better airflow or air conditioning. On a more positive note, the swimming facilities are excellent. The pools are well-maintained and the swimming classes are top-notch. The coaches are experienced and friendly, and there’s a wide variety of intensive classes that cater to all levels – this is easily the best part of the centre. The café is okay – not spectacular, but it does the job. They offer a solid selection of protein shakes, which is great post-workout, though the rest of the menu could be a bit more exciting. Overall, Copthall Leisure Centre has potential. If they improve the ventilation and manage gym crowding better, it could be a much more enjoyable place to train.

5 /5 Valentina: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I highly recommend the swimming classes at Barnet Copthall Leisure Centre. My 4-year-old son has only attended a few sessions, and he has already gone from being scared of the water to swimming a short distance on his back without floats! This amazing progress has happened in just a few weeks, with only one half-hour class per week. His teacher, Adam, is excellent. You can really see that he loves what he does — he’s fantastic at teaching children while also making the lessons fun and enjoyable. That’s the best way for kids to learn! I am happy with the experience and grateful for the confidence my son has gained in such a short time. Highly recommended!

5 /5 Berenice Fayad: Copthall Gym is well equipped with quality exercise machines, spacious and the exercise machines are well placed. The gym has got good exercises classes, both virtual and at the studios on site. The gym and changing rooms are spacious, well kept and well designed. The staff are friendly, professionals and helpful. Its easily accessible by both able and disable people. I use it five times a week and have been delighted with the workout and help I get from stuff as a person with mobility issues.

5 /5 Jocelyn: I attend at variety of exercise classes at Copthall Leisure Centre which enables me to enhance my fitness levels - some people say that I’m addicted! It’s not just the fitness aspect though, I also love the social angle it brings to my life! Having access to all gym facilities as well as group exercise classes in my membership is of course an added bonus. The Teachers/Instructors are all proficient in their specific disciplines. They encourage and motivate the group/individuals as well as leading and clearly demonstrating each exercise. Each instructor has a variety of options available for each class so nobody needs to feel that they ‘can’t do’ a particular exercise. There is a welcoming atmosphere in Copthall from the minute you enter the building. Lamia is the main person on Reception. She is very pleasant, polite, helpful and professional. She’s ideal for that position. From my experience, I can highly recommend Copthall Leisure Centre to anyone who is considering taking up exercise OR anyone already doing exercise elsewhere.
