Sports activity location in Southampton

“We booked a two hour sailing session for my husband and my best friend's little girl - as her Christmas present - and it was absolutely brilliant. I've never seen her beam so widely seeing her get off the boat after an amazing session. The instructor was brilliant and both of them were pumped with adrenaline afterwards chatting about everything they'd learned. Highly recommend.”

“I've used a holiday club at Hythe Primary - Active For All since 2021 when we relocated to Hants. The club has since opened an after school club at Beaulieu Primary allowing the school to offer wrap around care allowing parents to work fulltime and have access to a fantastic well led school and a fun after school club for their children. Sadly this is our last year at Beaulieu. My 10 year old thoroughly enjoys spending time at the club. And doesnt mind helping with the very young ones. I find the Active team to be engaging, interested in their role and offer stimulating activities for the children. I find it's fantastic value for money. I have previously owned 2 Good Ofsted registered childcare facilities, this one is fantastic.”

“My children had a great day at Activeme360. They cant wait to go back. The staff were really friendly and helped me with a medicine form which took no time at all. They had bikes available and the staff worked really closely with my son to encourage him to beat his fear and he left really excited about a bike. This is amazing and something we have been tying to work on.”

“The gym is small but not very busy. You can do most exercises here, plenty of cardio machines”

“Went for an Aqua Christmas Do. Well organised, good venue with efficient staff.”

“This place has changed my life. A referral made by my physio after a long recovery from slipped discs and sciatica, I headed here to meet Rachel. She helped by talking through the plan going forward after hearing my story. I have a gym membership now and have started by swimming and attending aqua classes which you can book easily on line when available. They are amazing! So far I've done the hydro classes on weekday mornings, and the rehab class on a Wednesday evening. Different instructors each time but all have been so enjoyable. A great workout which you can do to your comfort levels. Each time I've left the pool I've felt like jelly without having the discomfort during the class. Thanks to these classes I'm already feeling more confident in my abilities and getting stronger day by day. All ages and abilities are welcome and I would highly recommend.”

“Just been here to kill some time whilst my car was been serviced, I’m not from the area so I wandered in with a gym bag. I was pleasantly surprised by the facilities for a modest sized gym. All new stuff and in a nice room. The reason for the review is the staff. I was clearly a guy wandering through, but I was helped with a padlock (I didn’t bring) and shown around. I use a lot of different gyms when I travel around, this is a nice little gem. Thank you to Brad, who help me get sorted. My car is ready earlier than I expected, so I’m just dropping a quick review. As good service deserves recognition”

“I went to this university for a Master program in Events Management and I absolutely loved all the time spent there. Good lecturers, loving facilities, resources etc. The campuses are huge, modern buldings and facilities. I didnt live in one of their campuses but from what I saw from visiting my colleagues, the accomodation they offer is lovely. Of course is not cheap, but all is worth it for the experience. The university also has restaurants, cafes etc with affordable prices. A gym as well for those who are interested. What I loved the most from this experience was the library they have and all the resources they offer to their students to make their life easier. Second thing I liked the most was the teamwork which they emphasize, practical activities, the group projects they give you just to help you understand the theoretical ideas you learn and how to apply them in real life. They also have lots of programs and volunteering you can apply for. During my studies there I had the chance to be accepted for an International Student Ambassador job. You can imagine how happy I was having a job and working for the university , enjoying what I do and also be paid for doing it. As part of the job, I was writing blogs, taking photos for their social media channels, participating in photoshoots for their social media pages, brochures and websites, holding campus tours for their Open Days at the uni etc. It was an amazing experience which helped me grow and definitely I would repet it if I would have the chance again. Pros: ranked on 29th worldwide out of 1591 univerisities measured. Cons: not affordable for everybody, high taxes for their programms but you can always apply for a Student Finance from the Gouvernment.”

“I am a wheelchair user and finding places that are wheelchair accessible is hard work. The staff here make me feel very welcome and help me in and out the pool with the pool lift. They are encouraging of my goals and make sure that lane swimming is just that. They have had some issues with the building yes but they also do their best to resolve it. The gym is not directly accessible by lift so when i go to do my gym workout i have to tell them im coming in advance so they open the gym door for me. But that is no hard ship. I have had a lot of good advice what i could do in the gym to help with my upper body strength as i cant do anything with my legs. I have found them very kind and welcoming and i look forward to my visits.”

“Brilliant soft play area for toddlers and young kids. Absolutely the best ball pit of any soft play in the area. Nice that Costa is right next to it, too! Wish the opening hours were a bit longer, especially on weekends.”
