META45 STUDIO - (Near , UK)

John Barker I was looking for exercise opportunities that were communal, fun and inclusive. (Going round a gym solo is very unappealing to me.) I came across Gaia online and initially reached out over email, and the response was so helpful and positive, I decided to head along to a session. I was a little trepidatious, but it could not have been a more positive experience. The atmosphere is supportive, positive and so fun, and is led wonderfully by Olivia (who always goes above and beyond for attendees). Every person Ive met at the classes has been so friendly, it really is a joy to attend each week, and I love that were doing it in an accessible location that connects us to our environment and our community. This has become my most regularly sustained exercise now, because its more than just a boot camp class. Im so grateful I found the Gaia Fitness Collective, and would encourage anyone to check it out.

C. Pool is fun and great for kids. The cafe is great here too, and the shop has everything youd need for swimming. Parking is ample and free. Cant speak much on the fitness side as I dont use it for that. But seems well equipped.

Sourced Only reason im giving it 2 stars is because their water from the fountain is nice and have decent air conditioning. Cons: theres people doing number 1s in the pool, the changing room floors are muddy and dirty, the doors to change are all broken, you need to pay 20p to use the lockers which is inconvenient who carries 20p on them these days, the mens health suite is very overcrowded, the gym is okay at quiet times but when it gets busy, the smell in there is like walkers cheese&onion. Theres a person named yg in there and hes just speaking to girls more than working out.

Serena Mullings Evolve studios and in particular Gill has revolutionised my approach to fitness and wellbeing! An excellent, individualised standard of health care and the most incredible fitness classes. The music, vibes and energy are second to none!

Jess Negyal Cordelias classes are a highlight of my week. She is very knowledgeable about how the body works and suggests ways to improve each stretch and movement in a personalised way during the class. Pilates with Cordelia (both reformer and group classes) have been enormously helpful in my recovery from hip and foot surgery. I am feeling so much stronger having done pilates with weights. Pain that I have had for years has gone and I am feeling more flexible and able. I could not recommend more highly.

Daniel Toeuk Great place to climb. Staff are all super friendly, and the whole place is also very clean. I love the very relaxed atmosphere, and I really like the fact that they are constantly posting updates/videos on social media. It makes it much easier to get info on upcoming events and stay connected. I really enjoy the routes set here, I find them softer than some places but not too soft, it has helped me to gain the confidence to climb more difficult routes and allows me to challenge myself without making me feel like its impossible. There are also a lot of free workshops (members free, non member £25 I think) which is great for improving skills and meeting new people. I find City bouldering does cost a little more than other places but when you take into consideration the location, facilities, free workshops/classes (for members) and high levels of customer service provided I feel that it is more than worth it. I have been to many bouldering locations, and I would rank this place within the top 5 best places to climb in London (funny enough, their Aldgate location is also within my top 5). Quick update, proper heaters have been installed recently and has made a huge difference, as I used to find climbing here in the winter difficult. So a very welcome addition to the gym.
