Best gym I've ever been too. Getting to go for free as a student makes it even better.

when they say they are "inclusive" its mean almost same thing as "Natural Flavor" on a food package. ITS BIG LIE, don't go to this if you have a medical condition. just go to planet fitness they are a ture Judgement free zone and not SWRC

Excellent equipment. Need additional leg press, there's only one! Other student comments share the same feeling. Otherwise, excellent staff and equipment. Most importantly, it "clean". Well done staff!

As an alumnus it has been fantastic to get back to swimming again in the three lane lap pool on these beautiful summer days. An always friendly staff greats you and everyone is being Covid safe.The lockers are with reset combinations so you don’t need to bring your own lock & the showers are warm and clean. Easy to go and grab a workout and get back to your life.When Covid is finished, please, I will be back at the spin classes, weight training and enjoying the facilities. Amazing gym and wonderful atmosphere.
