Zumba (Mondays and Fridays) …
The Monday night and Friday night Zumba classes with Yvonne and Emily are brilliant. Really fun and I can honestly say after attending from March that despite never having done these you can pick up the routines quite quickly. No judgements just good cardio. Would recommend! I travel across the borough for these and it is well worth it.

Creating an inclusive, no-judgement environment is exactly what we aim for, so it’s wonderful to hear that reflected in your experience.
It also means a lot that you travel across the borough to attend, your recommendation truly speaks volumes. We’ll be sure to pass your kind comments on to both Yvonne and Emily as well as the team.

Good Morning,
Thanks for your review!
We’re aware that there has been some concern and confusion about the changes to music licensing in our fitness classes from this Spring.
In late 2025 we became aware that the cost of our current music license that covers all our 250 leisure centres and gyms across the UK would increase significantly. As a charitable social enterprise focused on community benefit, we carefully reviewed our options to ensure we continue to invest our resources responsibly and sustainably.
Following this review, we asked our fitness instructors to transition to PPL pre-cleared, royalty-free music. This approach allows us to manage rising costs while continuing to deliver the high-quality classes you expect.
In practical terms, all instructors are being provided with free access to Power Music; one of the most widely used fitness music platforms. Power Music enables instructors to create their own playlists using professionally recorded studio tracks (not AI-generated), giving them flexibility while ensuring full compliance with licensing requirements.
We hope this provides reassurance and clarity about why we have made this decision, the care we have taken to engage with and support our instructors and our commitment to maintaining your class experience. As we implement these changes we will continue to monitor feedback and engage with staff and customers.
Warm Regards,
Kaisha

Frequently classes have been cancelled over the past month, which is very disappointing. The music that’s been played now is horrendous, no incentives to come to gym because of lacklustre music. Very unhappy at the moment, could you improve overall. Being a member of this gym over seventeen years and never seen this .

Cold showers
Albany leisure centre has the coldest showers ever, I asked the staff at what temperature were the showers set at and was told 39 degrees. Feels more like 20 degrees. I see children shivering under the showers shameful for better uk not taking action and investigating this problem as I have complained several times to staff.
Also the price difference between Albany centre and Southbury centre is ridiculous for a swim and sauna there is appox £4.00 difference.WHY?
Kind regards

Hi Mr James,
Thank you for raising this with us!
We’re deeply saddened to hear about your experience with the shower temperatures at Albany Leisure Centre.
We're more than happy to raise this with the wider team to locate if there are any issues with this.
Regarding price differences, please note that activity pricing can vary between centres depending on the facilities available and the specific services offered at each location.
This means that, even within the same borough, centres may offer different activities, and their facilities can vary in both size and range.
Thank you again for your feedback!
Warm Regards,
