I have been going to this exercise class for a month and I have to say it's excellent. The teacher is patient and understanding treating everyone with respect. I never feel rushed or embarrassed. I would recommend this class to anyone including my family and friends.

Owner's reply
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're really pleased to hear you've had such a positive experience in your first month. Creating an environment where everyone feels comfortable, supported, and able to progress at their own pace is incredibly important to us.

In February, I joined The Lab Silver 50+ strength and conditioning class, not knowing how it would work out. Bruce has been an excellent trainer. He never pressures you to do any exercise that you find difficult, and all exercises are adapted if medical or mobility issues cause discomfort.
Thanks, Bruce. I am thoroughly enjoying your training sessions.

Owner's reply
Thank you so much for this lovely review, Ms Pat. We're really glad you took the leap and joined The Lab. Silver Strength 55+ sessions back in February! It's great to hear that you've felt supported and able to train in a way that works for you. Making exercise accessible, enjoyable, and adaptable to individual needs is exactly what we aim for. Thanks for being such a valued part of the group, and we look forward to many more sessions together!

Lovely vibe here. Having never been to a gym as more of a runner/cyclist I’ve been made to feel very welcome and already seeing great progress with my core and strength training! Bruce is a legend!

So glad I decided to join HAL! I’ve been here for 3 months now and the progress I’ve made in that time has been insane! All thanks to the amazing coaches, Phil & Bruce  and their well-structured workouts.

I used to prefer going to the gym solo just to get a session in, but I genuinely enjoy coming to HAL. The community makes such a difference, everyone is so supportive, motivating, and encouraging, which makes working out feel so much more enjoyable. Honestly, couldn’t recommend HAL enough!

Owner's reply
Thank you so much for this Rachel, we really appreciate you sharing your experience. It’s great to hear how much progress you’ve made in just a few months, that’s all down to the work you’ve been putting in. We’re really glad you’re enjoying the shift from training solo to being part of the sessions, that sense of community makes a big difference, and it’s something we care a lot about. Thanks for the recommendation and for being part of HAL.
