The 30 Best Exercise gym in Manchester

“Myself and my partner have been going to Susi's yoga class for a couple of months. We are complete beginners. The class is very relaxed and, informal, and Susi is great at giving instruction so you can follow her. She has a lovely calming presence and makes everyone feel welcome. I'm really impressed with her knowledge and skill of yoga. It has helped me sleep better too.”

“Been about 10 times now great gym and machines and nice staff great family gym both my son and wife have been”

“We really appreciated being welcomed in to watch a training session. The facilities are great – clean, well-organized, and clearly run with professionalism and passion. Thank you for the hospitality!”

“Great old school gym. Friendly atmosphere.”

“Great gym, great people and a great atmosphere! Lessons catered for beginners with no previous experience all the way up to active fighters! If you’re looking for a fun way to get fit whilst learning new, effective combat techniques then look no further! City Centre location with classes starting from 17:30pm onwards so it won’t mess with your work hours!”

“A great gym for all levels, with some really high level players here. I was welcomed by Kam, who is a down to earth, approachable coach, with a fantastic teaching style that makes martial arts accessible for everyone.”

“I took my 8-year old boy for boxing lessons. The class is amazing, great atmosphere, great training and my son absolutely loves it.”

“My daughter started here only 6 weeks ago and has learned so much. She has been developed so many skills already and really enjoys coming. She has also advanced 2 badges. The support from the coach is brilliant. Practicing at home seriously helps her improvement. We look forward to seeing her progress through the badges”

“I’ve been a member at Village Gym Cheadle for about three months now, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience so far. The facilities are excellent everything from the gym floor to the pool area is modern, clean, and well-maintained. The team there are excellent, from the friendly reception staff who always greet you with a smile, to the personal trainers who are approachable and knowledgeable, everyone genuinely seems to care about helping members feel welcome and supported. I’m already seeing the benefits of being part of such a positive and professional gym environment. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a gym with great facilities, a friendly atmosphere, and a real community feel!”

“I absolutely love the village gym, all the staff make you feel so welcome, and the atmosphere is great, also I have been having PT sessions with Lee, this knowledge is second to none and I really enjoy the sessions, also helps that he’s a city fan”

“Absolutely nice place to exercise or enjoy swimming. The facility is new and very clear. Only thing is they don't have swimsuit dryer.”

“I went for a gait analysis today at runners need, we just turned up not realising they did actually have an appointment system, their next appointment wasn’t until later that day and the shop wasn’t busy at the time we went in so the guy happily did the gait analysis. I have never had one before and wasn’t sure what to expect apart from running on a treadmill, the guy who did the analysis was very knowledgeable and very thorough, he was very helpful and I felt confident he knew what he was talking about and felt confident enough to take his advice!! As it turns out I have been running in shoes that are 1.5 sizes too small, hence all the problems I have been having! I wanted to leave this review as there are so many bad ones and had I read these before I probably wouldn’t have gone there. Don’t be put off by all the bad reviews!!!”

“I went to Oxygen Manchester for a viewing. Honestly, it is one of the amazing places in Manchester from the first moment when you walk in the Receptionist they welcomed us with a smile after that we met Osman Nazar from ACL Lettings he welcomed us and showed us the flat and all the facilities, he was honest with us and helped us through the whole process and I appreciate all his efforts and the support he gave to us. Unlike other agenciesI found that with ACL it was easy to get an appointment and to proceed with the viewing. Osman he did a greart job, he was very professional with us and we felt comfortable in our viewing with no rushing unfortunately like other agencies. I loved all the facilities especially the swimming pool, gym everything was very clean and spotless. I liked the fact that they try their best to give you the best experience while you are staying there.”

“I only use the sauna and the steam cabin usually (when I have time for a visit), but far the best of all Village Gyms in Manchester, even if this is a bit smaller. Nice and calm atmosphere and very kind staff.”

“Ami Gibbs was amazing with me in the gym. I applied for a free day pass online and came into the gym and Ami showed me around the facilities. She was super helpful and friendly and made me really comfortable and the gym and pool area was amazing. Will definitely be looking to join once I’m back from travelling.”

“Amazing! The best thing we ever did was join here. The facilities and classes are brilliant. Changing rooms are new and clean. The staff are very friendly, approachable and helpful. Special mentions to Ellie who showed us around and signed us up, Connor who is always a friendly face and happy to help in any way he can and Paul in the clubhouse who all make us feel so welcome and at ease every time we come to the club. Nothing is too much trouble for them and they are very professional in all they do and friendly and chatty at the same time. A lovely club with good energy from all the staff and a happy relaxed atmosphere.”

“After having knee surgery at the Spire, Ankit was my phsyio.He put a number of programs together to help with my recovery. The way he has helped me has been amazing. My recovery started slowly but thanks to Ankit im now on the road to a good recovery and I am able to do alot more. Thank you for all your help and support.”

“Liz is an experienced physio who did a great deep tissue massage for my back. Had some good advice on activity and took a thorough history to get to the bottom of my back problem.”

“Brilliant coach, makes the lesson around you. Suitable for any age, and anyone who wants to improve their balance and coordination.”

“Really great environment! Fantastic classes, trainers are unbelieve! My wife loves classes which is a huge bonus, giving me more of an excuse to go down!”

“Great place to swim! The Manchester Aquatics Centre is always tidy, the pools are in great condition, and it’s excellent value compared to other gyms. Big shout-out to Martin, his kindness and willingness to help with anything really stand out. Staff like him make a huge difference.”

“Absolutely fab place. The first night the jacuzzi wasn't working but the pool was fine and the 2nd day the pool wasn't working but the jacuzzi was. The staff couldn't apologize enough. 0 out of 10 for the maintenance staff but the spindles staff sre very polite and welcoming. Did myself and husband a deal for the last day due to inconvenience”

“Great private gym with pool steam and Jacuzzi”

“Excellent facilities and very helpful staff”

“Absolutely brilliant. If you are flying from Manchatten airport port. It's less expensive than booking the airport parking. Only slight downside. For a 6 am flight the shuttle bus doesn't run until 3:00 am. Even then veezu is around 20 quid.”

“I purchased one of the treadmills on Tuesday and this arrived on the Friday. Downfall I was not contacted to let me know what the delivery would be or given any tracking details. I have built this up with the kids and for us this is perfect does what it’s made for. We spent our first evening on this non stop. Good value for money.”
