What Our Member's Say
“I’m really pleased I joined Waterside. The facilities are amazing and always clean. The staff are always ready to help and very friendly. It feels like you all work hard to give the member a great experience” – Sue
“I have been a member of the Waterside gym for over 25 years. During this time I have seen many changes, all for the better. The gym is thriving and there are many activities to choose from. My current favourites are table tennis and swimming. The gym and staff really stepped up to the mark during covid and I think it’s a good thing that members still have to book their slot at the Leisure Centre to ensure it is not overcrowded” – Joan
“Found the Waterside the perfect solution to lockdown weight gain. The variety of activities and classes available have really helped my partner and I to start working towards our goals. We’ve found that training together really helps to encourage each other to go the extra distance when one of us needs that little push. What’s more, we’re turning our gym into more of a social visit where we work hard but reward ourselves after an intense workout with a swim and hydrotherapy pool session followed by a coffee in the Waterside restaurant / café. It really has changed our attitude to how we view our gym visits. Would wholly recommend to people who want variety in a friendly and inclusive environment.” – Natalie
“I just wanted to say how wonderful it was to return to the Waterside after the new year after a long time out during the covid situation. It’s lovely to get back into regular classes, still as excellent as ever and such a good range of sessions. The instructors are always so helpful and personable . There have been lots of brilliant additions to the club to make it a first class provision. Can’t wait to get back to swimming” – Elizabeth
“I love my Waterside membership and the classes I attend – mostly Aqua with Niki, Katie & Stacey followed by a session in the hydrotherapy & relaxation area. The fairly recent addition of the BIOCIRCUIT area which takes away all the agonising over where to set the weights, seat / pedal / handle positions is great too. Staff & regular instructors mean you know that you’re going to enjoy your time at the gym but Natalie Hesketh’s advance warning in the case of a change is particularly useful and appreciated” Andrea
“I have been with the Waterside for the last 18 to 20 years and I have seen a major change for the better. The club and staff especially Sophie are really nice and friendly. I wouldn’t leave this gym for any other gym it’s really relaxing” – Yaz
“I am now addicted to the BIOCIRCUIT way of exercising. I much prefer it to the normal gym equipment as it’s so much easier to deal with automatically setting up the correct chair heights and reminding me which equipment to use next. And it’s great for the concentration following the spots on the screens. I don’t notice the hard muscle work so much with my attention on the screens. It’s very well organised and set up and I don’t have to keep asking people what to do when I forget, like I did before. The staff are always very helpful and considerate if things go wrong occasionally. I’ve been unable to come every week because my health problems sometimes flare up but when I can do two sessions a week I do and feel so much better afterwards” – Diane
