  This is the best swimming pool in town. The only downside is that they sometimes close 3 out of the 5 lanes for classes, forcing everyone into the remaining 2 lanes. Despite that, it still deserves 5 stars.

  I started training with Dan Abrahams feeling quite self conscious about using weights and machines to build muscle and improve strength. From the beginning, he helped me gain confidence and tailored sessions around what I wanted to achieve. He’s made sure I can perform exercises correctly with good form to avoid injury and made me feel confident when training independently. He also provided personalised workouts for me to follow between sessions which made all the difference in keeping me motivated and consistent. Dan is supportive, knowledgeable and passionate about helping people to achieve their goals. I’d definitely recommend him, whether you’re lacking in confidence in the gym or already experienced with strength training and looking for further guidance and support.

  The Cafe here is great… I was served by Holly today, who couldn’t do enough for me and the coffee she made me was superb! Have been going to gym for a while now and never went to the cafe before…. I shall definitely be returning!

  Honestly the virgin active in Solihull is being reported to the local council & Trading standards as there hygiene levels are DISTURBING to say the least ! The pool tiles are absolutely filthy ! Then I have watched staff members with my own eyes scrubbing the sides of the pool tiles while people are in the pool so all the grime is just going straight back into the pool where people are swimming like what is going on ! These is seriously dangerous to peoples health it’s pure mould & bacterial! When I challenged the staff member saying would you scrub your bath at home while sitting it in ? His response was erm you have a point but still carried on ! Please lord help them ! Guide these people to BASIC hygiene ! Then it’s £90 a month to train in a DARK miserable gym floor like why on earth have you painted the whole gym black ? It’s all dark & horrible I come to the gym for my mental heath I want to see nice bright happy colours not a whole gym floor dark & black making me feel miserable & low ! Then have the cheek to charge more money for this not good ! I’m in shock at how low there cleaning standards actually are the place needs an inspection and should be shut down ! I’ve seen third world counties with cleaner pools !
