First Step 2 Fitness: Opinions
Fantastic experience: I love it . The atmosphere. Energy friendly . Fantastic place to be . Me and my friend joined up not so long ago . And we go with smile on our face and leave with a smile on our face . Hahaha shout out to our fitness instructor Susan zumba class are amazing . Pumped .
Love having you both smiling and sweating with us thank you x
Fantastic experience: Felt a bit apprehensive after being at my last gym for 9years but I had absolutely no reason to feel nervous. What a welcoming and friendly place this is. I was looked after from the minute I stepped through the door. I joined in April and I'm already noticing the difference. I've never been one for using a gym but I'm doing gym work as well as classes. If you want classes that really do give you a workout you need to go here the classes are excellent. PAYG is also an option so if you want to try before joining you can, but I can guarantee once you've tried it you won't look back ❤️
Thank you kathryn love having you with us trying new classes and the gym, variety means results come faster see you soon ❤️
Fantastic experience: Can't recommend enough. Emma is brilliant and made me feel so comfortable exercising. She is highly encouraging and motivated. If like me you were nervous to step into class for the 1st time don't be. A warm welcome awaits

Fantastic experience: Been a member here for 10 years, the team are friendly, helpful and professional. The gym has a great choice of classes on a morning, evening and weekend. All of the members are good fun and friendly and make everyone feel welcome. The pre conceived idea that everyone who goes to the gym is fit and skinny is not true here! ( I wish ) ha ha. But jokes aside, I don't know anywhere else to have so much fun while getting fitter at the same time!

Fantastic experience: The First Step To Fitness team are first class professional, friendly and helpful. The Gym is well equipt and classes are hard work but the instructors make them so much fun you gotta keep comming back. They offer amazing advice and support for all your fitness and health needs. I, along with three other family members, joined just a few months ago but already feel like part of the First Step to Fitness family and think of the team as friends. I will definatley be renewing my membership and for 12 months this time and would highly reccomend First Step To Fitness to anyone looking to loose weight, feel great or just wanting to get fit.
Thank you fay x
