Inconsiderate and unintelligent sauna schedule
The new sauna time tables are very inconsiderate and unintelligent.
Was there a high demand for mixed sessions? It must have only been the men who wanted that because the women don't want to be exposed to men like this.
Most of us prefer to be with other women when using the sauna steam room. Before the refurb there was a healthy amount of days and times per week for Women Only and always filled if not fully booked. Now women only sessions are at lunch time or in the late evenings 1 hour per session 4 times per week, no weekends. No consideration for the women who work, have their children's bedtimes to think of or just don't feel it's right to be made to wait until 9pm to use the sauna. WHY??? What inspired these new times?
WE DO NOT WANT TO BE IN A HOT ROOMS WITH MEN IN OUR MY BATHING SUITS. It's such an uncomfortable experience having men gape at you.
Why have you decreased the women's sessions without considering the women who use the services?
This needs to be reconsidered. We love men but do not want to be with men for this experience.
Some possible times to consider:
• Extend the women only evening sessions to 6:45pm - 9:45pm once or twice a week so we can get out at a decent hour
• Extend the afternoon women only sessions to 12pm-3pm to accommodate women before the school run
• Add weekend sessions
And perhaps do this for both Women and Male only sessions

I enrolled on healthwise for nothing
You dont fufill the needs of people with limited movement.I joined healthwise and do not meet the criteria to join the gym.I can only do chair based exercise which runs twice a week, is hard to get into.The staff failed to mention that in order for me to book go to healthwise which did not apply to chair based classes. Ive paid and couldnt get into class due to wrong information.I wrote email no response.I called and a lovely lady explained it was under different category. I can only attend one as i have another on another day.You need to have more classes for disabled people. I doubt i will lose weight, ive lost my motivation.Then by next month have to cancel in order to not be charged £26. I ask was there any point in joining? NO

Hi Honey,
Thank you for your review!
We're sorry to hear about the issues you've experienced when trying to book fitness classes using your Healthwise Membership.
We also apologise for any miscommunication provided when trying to locate these sessions, and we're happy to hear that this was recently resolved on the phone.
We're deeply saddened about the negative impact this has had on you, as you've raised that it wasn't worth joining the healthwise programme.
We greatly appreciate your feedback about increasing the classes, so more of our members can access this.
Thank you for raising this with us!
Warm Regards,

Hi Mokhinur,
Thanks for your review.
We are sorry that you are not happy with the Flex membership. This membership gives one session included a month and all other sessions are booked at a pay and play rate.
This membership is fantastic if you would like to use the centres occasionally; however, if you are going often it does work out cheaper to sign up to an inclusive membership.
Full membership options can be found here: Memberships | Centre Details (https://memberships.better.org.uk/centre/clissold-leisure-centre)
If you would like to upgrade, please visit the form at the following link so we can assist you: (https://www.better.org.uk/amend-membership)

The staff on the whole are lacklustre
The staff on the whole are lacklustre. The fitness classes are dull and have no soul or fire. Ive connected more with online instructors than with those teaching at the Clissold leisure centre, 40 people ina. room, with one person shouting instructions from the front, themselves not even happy to be there. The staff in the weights area openly criticise the facilities, are uninformed and unprepared in how best to work with people of mixed ethnicity, political views should not feature in a health assessment. On the plus side, the facilities are actually very good.

Good Afternoon,
Thank you for your feedback!
We’re sorry to hear about your experience with our staff and fitness class structure, as this is not the standard we aim to provide.
We'll be raising comments regarding staff conduct and inclusivity with the wider team, and we're more than happy to investigate this further.
We also appreciate your positive feedback about the facilities.
Thank you again for sharing this with us!

Very poor experience & customer care.
There is a constant stream of classes cancelled at the last minute. Dreadful communication from the centre. A dance aerobics teacher has walked away from her classes and the centre can seem to find no suitable replacement. A new music app has been imposed which is like lift music and unsuitable for choreography. There’s occasionally sewage coming up through the floor in the ladies’ changing room. Shocking! The customer care is non existent to appalling.

Hi Melanie,
Thanks for your review!
We’re aware that there has been some concern and confusion about the changes to music licensing in our fitness classes from this Spring.
In late 2025 we became aware that the cost of our current music license that covers all our 250 leisure centres and gyms across the UK would increase significantly. As a charitable social enterprise focused on community benefit, we carefully reviewed our options to ensure we continue to invest our resources responsibly and sustainably.
Following this review, we asked our fitness instructors to transition to PPL pre-cleared, royalty-free music. This approach allows us to manage rising costs while continuing to deliver the high-quality classes you expect.
In practical terms, all instructors are being provided with free access to Power Music; one of the most widely used fitness music platforms. Power Music enables instructors to create their own playlists using professionally recorded studio tracks (not AI-generated), giving them flexibility while ensuring full compliance with licensing requirements.
We hope this provides reassurance and clarity about why we have made this decision, the care we have taken to engage with and support our instructors and our commitment to maintaining your class experience. As we implement these changes we will continue to monitor feedback and engage with staff and customers.
Warm Regards,
Kaisha
Terrible music policy
If music motivates you to work harder, burn more calories, motivates you to move DO NOT CHOOSE BETTER! They have increased our memberships but taken away the licence to play real, genuine artists as they don’t want to pay the fee. The result - classes with AI elevator music that does simply nothing! It adds no atmosphere, depletes motivation, is a system that is entirely dependent on WiFi so sometimes we have no music! It’s not worth the £60 odd pounds a month anymore. Limp as a wet lettuce
