Hoosna Bhaimia Excellent gym, motivating, fun and a good work out. For the ladies its fantastic way to build on your fitness, lose weight, keeping fit and active and meeting new people. I have been to many boxing and circuit type classes, and this is for sure the best!

Shahnaj Miah I joined Billy Stanley Fitness 6 months after having a c-section and after developing many post surgery complications. I decided it was time to get stronger, healthier and lose weight after being signed off by my surgeon to start exercising. I am so glad I found BSF++ because they understood my specific requirements when working out and exactly what to avoid. The exercises were also altered to ensure I get a personalised routine each time. I thoroughly enjoy coming here & in the short time I’ve been here it has become addictive. I attend 4 times a week and have lost weight, but have also gained physical strength & mentally feel SO much better. The coaches are to thank for this. The members are so friendly it feels like a new family I’ve found. I could never go back to a usual gym after joining BSF because the tailored approach to working out has been a game changer for me. The sessions never get boring as we do different exercises each time unlike just running on a treadmill for an hour like I was previously. I realised I was doing it all wrong! Exercise can be fun & enjoyable, not a chore. I am so grateful to everyone at BSF++ for making me feel and look better already and I’m so excited to see what’s in store for the future.

Subrina Hussain I have received absolutely outstanding service since joining Loughton Leisure Centre. From the very beginning, Sharon, one of the managers, has been nothing short of amazing. I initially enquired online and was quickly contacted by Sharon, who followed up with a phone call and arranged a tour. I suffer with excruciating pain and often find gyms intimidating, but Sharon’s kind and genuine nature instantly put me at ease. At one point, I became tearful during our conversation, and she didn’t just brush it off — she listened, handed me a tissue, and gave me a reassuring hug. There was never any pressure to join; instead, I felt supported and understood. That made all the difference. Since signing up, I’ve been attending regularly, and the atmosphere continues to be welcoming. Becca, another member of staff, always greets members with a big smile and even remembers names — such a simple but meaningful touch that makes you feel valued. Both Sharon and Becca are a true credit to the Centre. I’ve already recommended Loughton Leisure Centre to friends and family so they too can experience the top-class service and supportive environment. Since joining, my pain has become more manageable, and I genuinely look forward to coming in. Thank you to Sharon, Becca, and the whole team for all you do for the community — it really makes a difference!
