Kingston Gymnastic Centre & Fitness Studio - (Near , UK)

1 /5 That Analytical Lady: The play gym is expensive and dangerous - the place stinks like old sweat and it looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in years. The equipment is questionable at best and we will not return here again. It is not safe for toddlers. So expensive for such a dodgy place.

4 /5 Amanda Dallison: Went to the free play session with my 15month old. It was great, loads for him to do and he loved running around and climbing everything. Will defintely be going back! ONLY reason i havent given 5stars is because it really could have done with a hoover. We were in at 9:30am, so it had just opened, but the floor was filthy. Younger children were picking up bits off the floor and trying to put it in their mouths.

3 /5 Harriet Burdett: Attended a play gym session. Pros were there was absolutely loads of space for the babies to crawl around in and some age appropriate toys. It wasnt busy so you didnt risk the younger ones being squashed by the older ones. Cons were the place was tired and dirty. Some of the soft play kit was really worn out such as the ride on animals. As other reviews said, there is also a lot of bits (eg bits of rubber/rubbish/foam) on the floor which babies kept trying to put in their mouths so you had to watch them like a hawk to stop them. Also whilst we were there one of the children came out in a (likely highly contagious) rash, and despite them leaving immediately, and telling the staff on reception, the staff did not come and clean the toy the child had been on for the whole of the rest of the time we were there (meaning other children used it too). I think it is overpriced for what it is. Lots of potential for this place, but needs to be cleaner and tidier.

1 /5 Erika Beck: My daughter has been attending classes here for over six months and has made no progress at all. The trainers don’t actually teach the skills or break down the elements – they simply tell the children what to do and then leave them to figure it out on their own. Communication with parents is extremely poor. Important information is not shared properly, and when concerns are raised, complaints are ignored rather than addressed. If you want your child to genuinely learn gymnastics skills and progress, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere. Kingston Gymnastics Centre is not a place I would recommend.

1 /5 Katie Hall: I phoned up MK gymnastics 1 week before we planned on coming as I had several children that I was bringing. I spoke to a member of staff who informed me of the prices per child (£4) and adult (£10). The price list is no where to be found online or on their social media pages which was probably the first red flag! So I worked out the cost at £44 for the whole party. Great. On arrival the lady in front of me was disputing her entry fee and the man serving her was being rude (second red flag!). Unfortunately he was even ruder to me! He wouldn’t let me talk, constantly talked over me. Kept repeating his price list which was wildly different from what I’d been quoted on the phone. He wanted to charge me £90! (£11 per adult, £29 for an adult and three kids. He also said that there was a three child-adult ratio in place. I had asked whether adults were needed to supervise and was told no so thank goodness I had brought some friends with me. He said “did you really think it was that cheap” and “you can’t go anywhere for that cost” when I told him what I’d been quoted. Patronising and rude! The management NEED to sort this out. Have a clear pricing strategy and stick with it. Train your staff so that whoever answers the phone knows the prices and rules and get rid of that awful man on reception.
