“I attended the LBC dance class recently, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience! The energy in the room was contagious from the very first session. The instructors are not only highly skilled but also incredibly passionate about teaching - They broke down each move in a way that was easy to follow, regardless of your skill level. What impressed me the most was the emphasis on both technique and having fun. The classes are a perfect blend of a great workout and an authentic Punjabi cultural experience. Whether you are looking to improve your fitness, learn a new dance style, or just have a blast, these Bhangra classes are the place to be. Highly recommend!”
“This is an excellent yoga class, Cheryl and her team have created a lovely space in the squash club. Skilled teachers and classes at different levels.”
“We were recommended WitsEnd by a friend last year during a very difficult time when our French Bulldog had sadly undergone spinal surgery as a result of IVDD. And I am so very grateful that we were. Pumba was completely paraplegic and despite a 20% chance from our vets that he would walk again, with time, professional expertise and advice and true care for our Pumbaa, Shahad has helped him throughout the year and he is now able to walk again. We continue to visit Shahad weekly and will do so for the foreseeable. We can not recommend WitsEnd enough. True care and dedication for the dogs. Thank you so much. I genuinely do not think we would be in this position without them. From Pumbaa, Dan and Deanna x”
“I’ve been training at Leicester Shootfighters for three months now and I’m absolutely loving it. There is a great atmosphere here and an amazing learning environment, the level of instruction and coaching is second to none with the coaches taking the time to assist every single student throughout the lessons. Great facilities too. Five stars all round, my only frustration is I can’t get there more often.”

“The show was amazing. My family, friends and I enjoyed it. I only started Kathak classes with Ketaki ji in July 2023 and this was my first performance. Ketaki ji is a great teacher and am going to continue as she inspires me.”
“Into my third year studying Wing Chun and the noticeable difference in my technique and confidence has increased dramatically. Everything has been broken down into easy steps that once put together produce a deadly martial art. The teaching has been excellent and the general atmosphere is spot on. As a beginner I felt nothing but support from both Sifu and other students. As well as learning techniques, my fitness has increased over the years making me a better all round martial artist. Looking forward to many more years training under my Sifu and this school!”
“Great staff. Pool is (only) 20m but a good temperature for lane swimming without being so cold that leisure swimmers get too cold. Steam, jacuzzi, sauna and chillaxing lounges are nice additions. Lockers require a £1 or token of same size that is returned. You can get membership which includes towels if you wish. See other reviewers for the gym and classes.”

“I have been dancing at Andrea’s studio for around 4 years now and would recommend to anyone. I was inspired by watching a performance and contacted Andrea about lessons. Having had zero dance experience before, and not even any natural rhythm I am now looking at public performances which is something I never would have thought possible. She is extremely talented, patient and knowledgeable and the classes are fun and have a nice friendly atmosphere. Would absolutely recommend to anyone thinking of giving it a go”
