Physical exercise routines in London

“Dr Anthony helped me recover from a major lower back incident only in 4 visits, at a point when I was feeling insecure and afraid that I had suffered serious damage. When I started my physiotherapy I had difficulty walking, lifting weights, sleeping, and even sitting in my office chair, which made my every day life very difficult, especially as the father of a toddler. The exercises and therapy that Dr Anthony asked me to follow took into consideration the chronic problems I'd been having with my lower back, and previous episodes that stretched back almost 16 years. I feel healthier, more confident, and my core muscles have strengthened because of the exercises. Highly recommended! John Tzagkarakis”

“I've been going to the gym for a couple of months now and can't recommend it highly enough. As a previously active, though gym averse individual, I was initially drawn to the gym by the excellent swim classes provided by Mark at Learn to Swim Limited. I have since taken out a monthly membership to take advantage of the rest of the gym and am enjoying the lovely spacious atmosphere, the friendly staff and the incredible range of equipment available, providing endless ways to shape your training routine. Thanks guys!”

“I left my crested gecko in Amy's care when going away for the week. She made me feel confident that my lizard was in safe hands and that she would be provided the care and attention she needs.”

“My daughters and I have been treated over many years by both Steve and Emma for a range of problems associated with our hypermobility. They have helped us all to manage the condition and stay healthy and active. They have always been attuned to our different and changing needs, listening and communicating carefully. In addition to effective treatment sessions in the clinic, we have benefited from tailored Pilates sessions from Emma, and been guided and supported to maintain our health with exercises at home. I'm not sure how we would have managed without them!”

“Loughton movement clinic has transformed my life and I am forever grateful for all they have done and continue to do. Two years ago when I first walked through the door I was dealing with chronic illness and multiple physical injuries. I had an intense travel schedule and was living between London and New York. I had worked with multiple trainers in the past but no one compares to Joe and Chess. They both embody and practice what they instill in their clients. Beginning with the simple but effective philosophy of movement is medicine Joe skillfully designed a rehabilitation program to help my body heal and recover. He supported me when I traveled and his recommendations extended to my life style, diet and overall well being. Rather than focusing on the superficial Joe and Chess focus on health, self esteem and an appreciation of the human body and it’s potential. Joe is an incredible, skillful coach and adult educator who knows how to build on success whilst still knowing how to push when needed. Two years later I have thankfully recovered from my chronic illness and I can run in the park with my nieces and nephews and while traveling for work still maintain an exercise routine, even if that means dancing to Chaka Khan in my hotel room. Joe and Chess treat their clients like family, the attention and care they provide to each of their clients is so generous and heartfelt. Like many women I have struggled with my body image and fluctuating weight but through my experience working with Joe I now have a deeper appreciation and positive relationship and acceptance of my body and movement is part of my everyday routine. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you have done and continue to do!”

“The best gym I’ve been to in a long time. The trainers are so friendly and also make sure to challenge you beyond what you think you can do. It is a great community and environment and highly recommend to anybody !”

“Amazing place to train, I joined a few years back and being in my mid forties I was a little reluctant. The whole setup is like a brotherhood, with a lot of respect for one another. The leadership is phenomenal difficult to express how good this place is.. If I could give 10 stars I would.”

“Happy I chose to do my PT course with train with for gains academy. It was simple and straight forward. I really recommend for those who want to do a PT course”

“Cannot rate Studio K highly enough. The teachers Chloe and Sarah are so friendly and always bring good vibes. The classes are super fun, a great work out, simple booking via Mindbody and it's very reasonable at around £10 a class. Love it so much and can’t believe I hadn’t been before I did. Really friendly atmosphere no matter what level you’re at and all body types welcome!. They even introduce new people to the class by name and make the effort to remember people’s names. Can recommend hip hop, clubbercise and Zumba. Thank you ladies!!”

“It is my favourite Dance Studio to go to. Missie and Gee who look after the studio are some of the most wonderful and friendliest ladies I have ever met. The community they have created is so welcoming and inclusive. I love how the classes are easy to follow wether you are new to dancing, dancing as a hobbie or professional. They always make sure that everyone is taken into account and often will listen to some of the songs you want to do and try to accommodate. I personally love the commercial, contemporary with Gee and musical theatre classes. I've done a little hip hop which I am not the best at but Missie is always so patient and encouraging. I also love their workshop, they are so much fun and very varied. They have just launched their new classes and I can't wait to try them. The new studio is BEAUTIFUL! So exciting!”

“Derek is a very reliable and trustworthy dog walker. He understands dogs so well, and is very patient with our dog’s quirks. Our dog clearly likes Derek & is always looking out for him at walk times. She always comes back happy & contented from walks. I would gladly recommend Derek as a dog walker.”

“Esther was professional, welcoming and practical to help me with budgeting. I had tried all year to get a clear plan to set my finances in order but it was BOMM that really helped me to implement a quality plan, because of the excellent resources, tips and aid provided. She was also lovely to spend time with during the training session so I’m really grateful. I’d definitely recommend; it is worth the money and incredibly useful!”

“My 11 year old son loves this club and has really progressed in the 5 years he has been attending. Great way to keep fit and have fun. It's also 2 hours parent free time on a Saturday morning win win”

“My 12 year-old son was experiencing pain playing football and running. Alexis immediately diagnosed a problem with the adductor muscle. Four sessions of ultrasound and massage, along with guidance on exercises to strengthen the muscles and to warm-up before sport, have worked wonders. Alexis is charming, friendly, and really knows his stuff. I have no hesitation in recommending him.”

“We have been using Briony and KDW since our German Shepherd was a puppy. Briony immediately put us at ease from starting with puppy visits and now onto hourly visits/walks, helping to also interact with other dogs and on her own. She is VERY flexible and helps us out at the very last minute at times. Our dog absolutely adores her (sometimes more than us I’m pretty sure) and she always makes sure the dog is wiped down and the house kept clean when she visits. Would highly recommend her and wouldn’t go anywhere else.”

“I started Pilates classes at Vanbrugh physio with Anja at the beginning of the year to help with injury prevention and flexibility. I’ve never really got on with Pilates before but absolutely love these classes. They’re small so you feel like you’re getting personal attention and Anja and Rachel are fantastic teachers who bring great energy and knowledge. I’m feeling stronger and more supple and it’s definitely the most relaxing part of my week. Cannot recommend highly enough.”

“I attend this studio regularly and do pole dancing and all the stretch classes and fitness classes. I absolutely love it. The teachers are incredibly talented, skilled and knowledgeable and we are very lucky to have them. The teachers always push you to do your very best in classes. I love all the friends that I have made at this studio and we are all like family. It is such a fun, welcoming place to come. I highly reccomend to anyone wanting to try aerial fitness.”

“I recently joined MAH after seeing their amazing showcase from the one month Foundation Course. I immediately enrolled on the course and joined the school. The space is incredible and the staff and students are so friendly. The teaching is very professional, ensuring that everyone is safe and all ages and abilities are welcomed. It is difficult to put into words the atmosphere that Amanda has created here - although aerial is challenging, as soon as I walk in I am at ease, everyone is supported and encouraged and I have so much fun and laughter. It has become a second home to me.”

“Having used this Chiropractic clinic for a number of years I can definitely rate them as 5 stars. My back is treated on a quarterly programme by Gina which enables me to play golf 2 or 3 times a week pain free. All the staff are friendly and professional.”

“Well, what can I say...AMAZING! Honestly, I am so in love with London Woof, as is Ruby my 3 year old schnoodle. The love and care she receives from Gabor, Ruta and Maruena (sorry, I don't know the correct spelling!!! But Ruby goes NUTS when he comes to pick her up!!! And he is so brilliant with her) I feel such a sense of relief knowing she is having a ball and in safe hands on days I need day care, and just recently she had her first overnight. She loved it. I have had issues with Ruby in the past with separation anxiety and also being a little madam with taking it as she is top dog. But I have been actively re-training her and she is a different dog...I definitely link this with her attending London Woof too. They know her needs and have been implementing her new routine there too. She is calmer, happier, less anxious and well, just the happiest I have ever seen her. Thank you LW and all the team. Big shout out to Gabor who calls to let me know how she is getting on...SO lovely. What a manager. You have made my life so much easier too, any single dog parent knows it's tough...not anymore :) I genuinely can't recommend LW enough, if Ruby could talk, she would absolutely agree. I will just take her tail for it! WAGGING! xxx”

“Good track and facilities, well organised meeting and plenty of free parking. Not much cover though when it rains”

“The HHC is back open for business... always a friendly and welcoming team from the guys at reception to the PT's and Snr management team bosses and decision makers. Liking the new menu and pop up dining experience at Crucial Cafe for the tasty food... Reliably reliable 10 out of 10. Thank you Jh”

“I first used Olive Health & Travel Clinic back in the early days of covid. I used them for my daughters and I Fit to Fly tests. We received a professional and courteous service. I used them again recently for my Day 2 and again the same professional and speedy service. I really do recommend them, they're prompt and precise. Always nice women in that place. Can't fault them at all. I've used other places inbetween that haven't been as nice or efficient. Think I will stick to them from now on.”

“Well placed and accessible venue which is a good size for youth futsal although we bring our own goals. Would be great if they could have futsal goals on site. Staff are very helpful and happy to sort any issues if they arrive. Good size car park.”

“Nice new building with athletics track. Friendly helpful staff and Costa cafe. On Sunday afternoons people with disabilities and their families can use specially adapted 3 and 4 wheeled cycles on the track. The cycles are provided by Cycling Projects Charity "Wheels for All".”

“Love this heated outdoor pool. They use a different water treatment to chlorine so it’s kinder in your eyes. Very old fashioned, no lockers, but wire baskets for your clothes, like it! Have swimming stuff for sale and a gym, tennis courts, free parking and good value!”

“Ziggy had a great first time swimming will definitely be back. The instructor was very patient with him at first to build up his confidence. Love the fact I was able to go in with him”

“Didn’t stay but had a spa day with 3-course meal and have to say one of the best spas I’ve been too! Lovely and well maintained building with welcoming and friendly staff. The treatments were amazing and didn’t cost the earth, the food was just as amazing! Highly recommend going here!”
