Physical activity in London

“The Best Osteopath in London! I have been coming to Dr Christoph for 2 years now and I feel like a new person each time I leave his clinic. As an endurance athlete I often suffer from injuries in various places, including dislocated SI joint, hip problems and a dislocated ribs in a thoracic spine... Dr Christoph has been able to treat every one of them, each time. He also offers acupuncture and his hands are truly magical. Always a positive attitude and a very pleasant atmosphere. This is a best place you can go to! Very highly recommend!”

“I have been attending Rowena’s classes for nearly 2 years. There has definitely been improvement in my flexibility and my joints really feel the ongoing benefit. She always adds variety in what she teaches and I feel better both physically and mentally. She is the best!”

“Adrian Dilworth at 'The Putney Clinic', has treated me a number of times and I can not recommend him highly enough. His care, knowledge, expertise and attention to detail has always been second to none and always so helpful. My appointments with him have always been instrumental to healing, rectifying problems and pain, in my case neck, shoulder and back. He has a broad comprehensive knowledge and I have no hesitation in recommending him.”

“I can highly recommend the back in shape clinic. I have had a back problem for the last 3 years which has prevented me from enjoying my usual activities After seeing various specialists I thought I would give these guys a try. My physiotherapist Anthony has been excellent. From day 1 he has explained everything clearly and precisely. His assessment and treatment of my issue has been exceptional. I am now starting to make good progress and am much more positive about my recovery. Thanks very much.”

“I have been using Active Pet for the last 4 years both with my Labrador Retriever and Coonhound Cross, both of whom have had complex joint issues. Phillipa has been amazing and has made a huge positive impact on their quality of life in their later years. They are always happy to arrive and trot in for what we refer to as ‘spa day’. I would highly recommend her. Treatments have included hydrotherapy and laser therapy and a little incentivised homework of course.”

“My 3 year old son looks forward to his Playball class each week. The structured lessons have helped to develop his listening and turn taking skills. I have seen huge improvements in his throwing, catching, jumping and running skills. Coach Grant is wonderful! He is so patient with the children. I would highly recommend this class to any 3-4 year olds.”

“I've been having regular lessons from Lindsay for three months now, and the swimming lessons are really excellent. Lindsay has a wealth of technical knowledge and swimming experience that really shows. She also is a great coach, technique is taught clearly and she adapts what to focus on in each lesson based on my individual ability and current progress - this helps make the learning process more effective and learning technique more digestible. Lindsay has a patient and energetic coaching style, and I'm seeing great progress against my own swim goals - thank you! I'm fairly new to the triathlon world, and prior to starting with Turner Swim, I've previously really struggled with swimming, and nearly gave up triathlons as a result. However, I decided to get lessons with Turner Swim - I'm so pleased I did! I'm more confident, and my swimming progress has been greater than I personally expected so I'm really pleased!”

“By far one of the greatest customer service experiences I have had. The gait analysis was easy to follow and I felt like I left being heard and valued (and with a brand new pair of perfectly fitted running shoes). Will be coming back here to purchase some long distance runners in the near future!”

“Our son has been at Kateys for 9 months now and we couldn't be happier. The staff are so welcoming and loving towards the children. The range of activities, play and learning they do is outstanding. Each day useful feedback is given and periodically more thorough feedback in the form of a learning journal and parents evenings. I'm always astonished by the range and depth of topics covered. The setting is excellent too with lots of outdoor space and nearby points of interest. Highly recommend.”

“Mick and Dawn are absolutely fantastic! For almost 3 years they have been walking, grooming and boarding our little cockapoo Ava while we’re on holiday. They are the most loving and caring dog walkers I have ever encountered. They really love their jobs and love the dogs. I feel fortunate to have found such professionals and highly recommend them!”

“Lovely friendly Children's Centre. Lots to do for young children and a good opportunity to see medical professionals such as health visitors, speech therapist, educational psychologist, etc.”

“HIGHLY recommend this spot to swim. It's tucked away in a picturesque location, with a lovely dock with changing rooms and places to store your belongings. There are three loops of different lengths to choose from - perfect for those who are training to complete a specific distance. The staff are really friendly and helpful - they host different events to help test your skill and have 121 coaching on offer as well. Bright coloured caps and tow floats are required - they do have a supply of some as well. Lovely dining spots nearby for those wanting to make an occasion out of it - including outdoor bars on the water during the summer.”

“My children have been attending Korean Martial arts for the past 12 year. Never a reason to complain. The children are no longer children. Great service provide by Master Lee and Master Tae. Highly recommend”

“I was reccommend this nursery when I sent my son here, who is now 9! He has such happy memories and still talks about his time here even to this day. When I had my daughter, who is now 2, I did not hesitate to send her to Toddle In Group too. It was lovely to see many of the same faces as when my son was there. My daughter is also having a great time and it is lovely to hear all the new things you she has learnt which she tells me about. The staff are lovely and I always feel at ease leaving my children in their care. Thank you.”

“I really enjoy the classes with my son Freddie. We are now going onto level 4 baby swim with Nano. Nano is a great instructor, he takes time to explain what we need to do and shows professionalism and makes the classes enjoyable. My son who's 11 months loves the swimming and listening to the nursery rhymes. I would recommend osterley centre it is clean and staff are lovely. It's a brilliant set up and I'm looking forward to many more lessons. Xox”

“I had my surgery for a total left hip replacement at west Middlesex hospital on the 5th August 2020. Arjuna was my surgeon and looked after me with his team from day 1. I was the first day surgery case patient for a total hip replacement at the hospital (which is exploring new ways of working given the Covid environment backdrop). My personal experience with the team at west Middlesex has been fantastic and I would highly recommend these guys to anyone looking for a great unit and indeed a great surgeon / consultant for surgery. The initial consultation for sign off for surgery, the pre - operative assessment and talking through the surgery procedure were all carried out with a high level of due care and clinical excellence. I felt as a patient that the over riding priority was achieving a great clinical outcome for me and my surgery. The day of the surgery was very well co ordinated and went smoothly. Admission was straightforward, I was administered local Anaesthetic and the surgery took around 2 hours. I arrived at 7.30am and was discharged around 7pm the same day. Just brilliant. Since discharge I have been in constant contact with Arjuna and the team and the physio unit. I have also had two follow up appointments where Arjuna has held office himself directly. I am now nearly 7 weeks post surgery and progressing well and will be back to see In 3 months time for an assessment and x ray on the new joint. Thank you to Arjuna and the whole west Middlesex team for their care and passion. They have cleverly demonstrated the high value of keeping these important services local. If you would like to follow my journey please follow me on Instagram at @hip_pain_problems. Thank you”

I just want to say thankyou to all the staff but in particular Jake, casey and bou that helped my daughter in all aspects. the staff are so attentive, caring, welcoming I will miss u guys so much”

“Great adult ballet with Teresa. Ten out of ten”

“So glad to have this specialist school, my child was very supported here and never once did i feel like he would just be thrown away like mainstream schools did. My childs confidence grew here and I cant fault the staff, my child was hard work but they rose to the challenge! Due to the staffs hardwork and never giving up my son leaves now to college with good grades! Thank you octavia house!”

“Our son had a fantastic 1st year at a nursery at Kids in Motion, where he learned a lot, he made friends and he got very close to the staff. We moved away from the area so we couldn’t really keep him there longer, but even though more than 2 months have passed, he still mentions Alice and the rest of the staff. The team is doing a great job with many fun, educational activities and celebrations planned. We loved receiving photos every week and getting a good amount of information on our baby’s development.”

“The most beautiful kindergarten with the most wonderful teachers. Great professionals and people dedicated to their work and to the children. Communication, environment, care, food, activities, everything is at a very high level. My child went to kindergarten every day with desire and a smile. I am very happy that we were part of your big family. I highly recommend it. With best wishes for even more success.”

“I'm so pleased that I went to see My Life In Colour when I did. After suffering a series of losses and incidents Sarah showed me how to get everything in perspective and get back on track. I cant recommend her highly enough.”

“I moved to Virgin Active Repton Park in January after spending 5 years at Nuffield Health, and the difference has been a complete revelation. Nuffield raised prices twice in a year, removed key facilities like the jacuzzi without offering any discount, and the overall atmosphere — especially with some PTs — felt disrespectful and unfair. That experience pushed me to leave. Virgin Active has been the opposite in every way. From the gated community car park where you know your car is safe, to the friendly and welcoming reception team who greet you with a smile and provide fresh towels on every visit, the hospitality here is on another level. The locker rooms are a bit outdated and could use a modern refresh, but they’re always clean. The gym floor is great, though I do wish it had a bit more space and additional machines — especially a dedicated bicep machine. The real highlight of this club is the spa area. The sauna and steam room were recently renovated and are consistently in perfect working condition. The jacuzzi is incredibly relaxing, and the swimming pool is huge. As someone who’s been bodybuilding for over 10 years, having high-quality recovery facilities makes a massive difference. The architecture of the building is beautiful — transforming an old church into a gym gives the whole place a unique, almost royal feel. Overall, Virgin Active Repton Park delivers exceptional value, atmosphere, and service. Easily one of the best fitness clubs I’ve ever been a part of.”

“As per the reply from Active swim, I am updating my review here. Since I was looking for swimming pool and did not find anything here so just dropped 1 star earlier, no other intention, just wanted to let other viewer of this address to avoid any waste of time if they are looking for Active swimming pool.”

“Really relaxed, and extremely fun classes. Anna is a great teacher and an incredibly friendly and humble person. Everyone is equally as friendly, no big egos to deal with here. As a added bonus, there's funky disco lights too, which is always fun to dance along to!”

“Best childcare facility in London. The staff is really friendly and takes care of the kids. They keep them engrossed in many activities.”

“I did Boxing PT session with Nathan and it was so enjoyable. He's very good, skilled and I honestly progressed so much in a small amount of time. Thank you! Looking forward to more sessions soon!”

“I took my new born daughter to see Amel after a difficult birth, she really help to get my daughter more balanced and showed me exercise to do at home to help with her development.”
