Not a great first impression. A friend and I both had an induction booked today and on arrival we were asked to wait a few minutes. Twenty minutes into our induction appointment, this PT was still busy on the other side of the gym chatting to someone else. We did our session and left but No apology or return even from staff.nWe went in on a Saturday midday and it wasn’t as busy as expected, after reading the reviews , and my experience today, I’m not surprised.nI will still use the gym, as it’s convenient for me, but new members should be made aware.
**Very Disappointing Experience at The Gym in Shirley**nnI've been a member of The Gym in Shirley for a while now, but the experience has been far from satisfactory. To begin with, the gym doesn’t have proper air conditioning, even during the summer. The heat makes working out uncomfortable and, at times, unsafe.nnOn top of that, the equipment is frequently out of order. The stair master has been broken for ages, leaving just one available, so you always feel rushed with people waiting to use it. The treadmills are also often out of action, which just adds to the frustration.nnDespite the gym constantly closing for repairs, the equipment still doesn’t seem to get fixed. It’s as if nothing improves, even after these disruptions, which is incredibly frustrating as a paying member.nnThe female bathroom is also an ongoing issue. The sink tap doesn’t work properly, and you have to press it down continuously just to get a dribble of water, making it nearly impossible to wash your hands.nnTo make things worse, staff seem more interested in eating their hot food in the gym than in addressing these persistent problems. It’s unprofessional and doesn’t contribute to a positive gym environment.nnFurthermore, there’s no designated area for classes, which means personal trainers are shouting over everyone, making it hard to focus or have a relaxing workout.nnOverall, The Gym in Shirley is in serious need of improvement, from equipment maintenance to general management. It’s disappointing to pay for a service that doesn’t deliver a decent workout experience.
Cold showers for nearly 2 weeks. Really disappointing this hasn’t been fixed yet.nWould be nice to have anti bacterial wipes or cleaning towels to wipe machines down & hanging hooks in the showers for towels and toiletries. Not a practical gym! Been to much better gyms in the past. Don’t plan to be a member for long if things don’t change!
My partner and I have been members since the day The Shirley Gym group opened and take our training very seriously. Over the years like any business it was trying to shine and smile and get the customers in. It’s had several different managers constantly trying to improve it. We have constantly sent pictures of the filthy state of the changing rooms & state of gym floor, and it seems fall on deaf ears. The gym users lately do not seem to abide by any rules. We have witnessed PT’s standing there and people putting their mouth to the water machines spreading their gyms which is disgusting. We even increased our membership to live it so that we can access other gym groups, as the standards at Shirley have dropped drastically. Membership keeps increasing, heating has been removed from the changing rooms so it’s freezing in the winter & most importantly all cleaning and sanitising stations have been removed, asking you to buy your own towels wiping sweat on sweat, which makes no sense at all. After speaking to other members no one can believe that the gym group does not have standard basic cleaning essentials for users to use anymore. It makes you wander where the increased membership money is spent on, advertisement and uniforms. I’m sure the response to this review will waffle on about being eco friendly. Only reason we come here is for convenience and location. If another 24hr gym opened up near by would not hesitate to move and I’m sure it will loose its loyal customers who also feel this way. It’s a shame as once it used to be a thriving gym.
I do my own stuff at The Gym treadmill, weights, exercises but what I enjoy the most are the yoga stretch classes I do with Mikey at the Shirley gym. Mikey is absolutely brilliant, he engenders such a good upbeat atmosphere right from the off. I attend three or four of his stretch classes a week. He’s so good at talking through each part of a yoga movement; with maybe four steps to a move it might be the fourth step that’s the clinching bit, but he’ll point out this crucial bit as well as all the steps before. And the pacing is just right. Also, he always has advice with any problems, aches and pains, or be there if I need an extra ad-hoc paid for class. And of course I’ve massively improved my flexibility and fitness by attending the classes over the last three months.
