Kents Gym

Great gym of a decent size. Need to update some machinery and fix those broken. Make it obvious that the Ladies gym is not for men to work out upstairs or walk through. Steam room and sauna could do with fixing but told they won’t. Never had time to use them in the past but would do now. The classes used to be great and varied but now just the same old classes. I attend quite a few of them and the teachers need to mix them up every few weeks like they used to years ago but they don’t. Plus, if it’s an hour’s class, make it an hour and not 50-55 minutes. Gym members take the mickey by keeping permanent lockers and never clearing out every visit. I don’t think the staff care to check. Speaking of the staff, Julie is lovely and I hope she reads this and listens to the feedback. Over the years there’s been some stand out staff but they eventually leave, including the class instructors. Apart from Lucy and Michael, I don’t find the other staff friendly. They just stand and chat with the young lads all day! The car park needs sorting out, too many pot holes. Kents need to tell the local children to keep out for the safety of themselves and of the gym members. I know I’ve generally given negative feedback but the positives are what remained in the past. I do like this gym overall as I’m clinging onto what it used to be.

Good gym for getting fitter and staying in shape. Has plenty of lockers, good size and private car parking space (alot of gyms lack this and they tend to have shared parking spaces!) Staff are always helpful and available when you need them. However, at one point in time, they have both, steam room and sauna. During covid, these got shut down and never turned on ever since. This was one reason why I love coming to this gym. This is shut down for good and the staff have already said that it will not be opening up again. There could be a number of reason for this, such as members abusing the thermostat to get the place hotter, or simply because it's too costly to run but whatever it maybe, it's a shame it's no longer opening again. Another let down is the "ladies only" section. This used to be a thing a few years ago but due to the abnormality certain people have this day and age, they believe a man can transform into a woman and use the ladies only section absolutely is insane! The price is still decent and quote competitive with other local gyms, however, many other gyms are starting to open 24 hours. Would like to see some big improvement happen to this gym and I may concider coming back.
