SWIM SCHOOL TESTIMONIALS

Since coming to Health & Sports Swim Club, swimming has become an enjoyable experience for our sons and not a chore! The instructors are wonderful and the small classes mean they get good intensive tuition. We are very happy with Health & Sports Swim Club and the swimming progress of our children. (Mel.)

We have loved taking part in Health & Sports Swim Club classes.  The teachers are really friendly, the class sizes are small and the Sunday Fundays are such a great idea.  It feels special to be part of such a lovely community. (Jacqui.)

My son loves his swimming lessons at Health & Sports Swim Club. The teachers make learning to swim tremendous fun and the lesson structure ensures the students gain confidence in one exercise before moving toward another, more complex one. (Rachel.)

My kids are learning so much at Health & Sports Swim Club and having fun. High calibre instructors provide the training and individual development they need and set at the right pace. (Paula.)

OMG, thank you ladies for being SO AMAZING with Hudson today… my husband and I were blown away that he went straight into the pool and loved it. Thank you for welcoming us at the door, and Adi and Bahama for being so engaging and warm and funny.  It makes such a difference for shy kids, thank you!!! We will definitely be back every week and appreciate how much effort you put in.  

At 3 and half years old, my daughter Hilary has been learning to swim at Health & Sport Swim School since October last year.  We were amazed with the progress she has made, her confidence in the water has grown, and she has really loved her swimming teachers.  Having tried two other swim schools, I know for a fact that Health & Sports Swim School have got it right!  I am really excited as a parent to know that my daughter is in great hands while she learns to swim.

I’m so impressed with the teaching at Health & Sports Swim School, thank you for the excellent work you do. My daughters love their swimming lessons – they like their teachers, they are learning to swim with great confidence and technique, and they have fun! 

Before she started lessons at Health & Sports Swim School, my eldest never believed she could swim because her old swim-school pool had no deep end so she was always able to stand up. The Health & Sports pool has a proper ‘deep end’, and my children are way more confident now especially when swimming in the ocean because they know they can really swim if they can’t touch the ground…they are learning excellent water-safety skills. (Anne.)

The swimming lessons here have exceeded our expectation. I can’t believe we took so long to join up. The teachers are calm, kind and caring. They teach skills that are relevant to safety first then they transfer to sports styled swimming as their skills develop. The classes are small and the teachers are both nurturing and challenging for the children, pushing them out of their comfort zone when they see fit.  We only wished we’d chosen this swim school earlier. Thank you! (Xenia.)

CLUB TESTIMONIALS

I have been training at Health & Sports for a number of years now. It’s a great club with excellent facilities. And the new cafe is a great addition to the gym. (Andy Dalton, Auckland Rugby.)

I have been working out at Health & Sports off and on for nearly a decade. Since retiring from being a rugby player and moving back from overseas, it was a no-brainer to join up here again. The staff are friendly and always willing to help out and give pointers whenever they can. It’s a great environment for working hard and it caters for everyone regardless of your level of fitness. (Anthony Boric, ex All Black.)

Making that first step towards exercise is such a mission, no matter how convinced you are of the benefits. And taking out a gym membership is an even bigger step, particularly when you haven’t done it for a while. Which is why Health & Sports Fitness Club is my preferred club – they take the fear out of taking the plunge. They achieve this a number of ways: great staff, including very understanding personal trainers; great and easy to use facilities; and a club layout that helps you focus on your personal workout, and not worry about whether you’re being checked out. And having taken that initial plunge, going back regularly has been a pleasure, not a chore, and on the days when I just can’t face doing a full work-out, I’ll head for the pool and do laps. Perfect. (David Williams, publisher.)

I have been a member of Health & Sports for over 6 years. The gym equipment is second to none and the team are always welcoming, friendly and supportive. Health&Sports is my gym of choice. (Glenn Patterson, business owner.)

Health & Sports is an awesome gym to belong to. I had been a member for a number of years when I found myself out of work. Health & Sports management and staff supported me during this difficult time, keeping my membership active and allowing me to use the club.  I have since started and manage my own business. With the help of Health&Sports I was able to keep active and maintain a positive outlook. Thank you, Health & Sports! (Mohammed, business owner.)

I have been a member twice now. This time for over 3 years and I love it!  The club is really friendly and the classes are awesome. They have a great daycare which really helped when the kids were little and I really needed to lose that baby weight. I love the spin classes, they really get you into shape and the atmosphere is really fun. The teachers keep the classes interesting and the intensity high.
Another big bonus about this gym is the pool. There is loads of room and lots of lanes. The new cafe is excellent and a great place to relax after training. (Melissa.)

Health & Sports is the best fitness center in NZ by far and if I ever have the chance I will gladly come back to you guys. Excellent facilities, classes and customer service. (Franco.)

I have really enjoyed being a part of Health & Sports gym. I always looked forward to going and was always greeted by friendly staff, from the front desk staff to the trainers alike. I always felt comfortable and supported within the environment and I truly think this sets you apart from other gyms and if we move back to NZ then I will definitely come back! (Alixx.)

WATER SAFETY WEEKEND TESTIMONIALS

What a wonderful experience for children! Hilary absolutely loved the session on water safety. I think it’s a very important part of learning to swim; getting children familiar with life jackets, and the importance of wearing them. I would thoroughly recommend this programme. Thank you so much for arranging this for our children. (Cara.)

Both our kids thoroughly enjoyed the water safety course, coming home with loads of info on how to keep safe in the water- something so important for us beach and pool lovers. Thanks to you and your team for providing such a fantastic well run initiative. (Stef and Luke.)

Just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you so much for the water safety session yesterday. The kids LOVED it!! So fun but also so important. (Marie.)

We feel very lucky to have the Health & Sports Swim School team giving our kids a water safety lesson at the start of summer. It was appropriately pitched for their ages, with sensible rules, time in the pool and lots of fun. Could save a life. And for free! Thank you guys. (Anon.)

Logan really enjoyed it thanks, he hasn’t been confident enough to join in the Waterwise lessons at school so I was really glad your workshop covered rips etc and then the practical aspects in the pool were great. Found all the teachers excellent, really approachable and helped Logan overcome his fears of what the workshop involved. I really appreciate that you offer this workshop for free. (Paula.)

The water safety workshop has now become a must ‘no miss’ event in our family. The way you and the team explain simple non-negotiable rules to our kids is a deep comfort to us and also a fun experience for them. Thank you for doing this valuable work! (Nina.)

The Water Safety Workshop was marvelous, thank you! The girls really enjoyed it and are proudly telling family and friends they know how to use life jackets now! It’s the first time we have attended and we will be coming again. Thanks to you and the team for your enthusiasm for water safety and for making the workshop fun and interesting. (Camille.)

CHILDMINDING TESTIMONIALS

I am a stay at home mum with four young children and because of the childminding team I get to come to the gym and have a break! It has been an absolute lifesaver for me mentally and  they are all so kind and loving ALWAYS! My kids absolutely love coming to the gym crèche! And I often use it as the golden carrot! I have two children that have been coming since they were 6-9 weeks old and I trust them all  with all four of my children.  This place has been a game changer for me and there have been times when I have just needed a break so I have sat and had a coffee in the cafe instead of working out with no judgement. I  tell every mother who I meet with young children about this gym because I want them to feel and experience exactly how I feel. I am just completely blown away how they spend time individually with the children. They read books to them. print out their favourite animals or characters to colour in. Do puzzles and play their favourite annoying jams while dancing and blowing bubbles!! They are stars. (Micah O’Leary.)

I have been a member of Health & Sports for 2 years now and having a gym with a crèche has been an absolute game changer for me as a mum for both my mental and postpartum health. And getting a 90 min break each day is nice too, especially knowing that my son is making connections, playing and enjoying the facilities the crèche has to offer. I have often looked in on him and seen him dancing, playing with bubbles or being read to. He is happy to walk in and he never wants to leave.  Knowing that I am leaving my son with such a wonderful team has enabled me to fully give my mind over to my workout and truly relax whether I’m working out or just having a sauna. I honestly can’t thank them enough for how amazing they are with the kids. (Caroline Northcott.)

My husband and I have been using the childminding service for our two girls, and have been absolutely blown away at how consistently kind and welcoming the amazing staff are. Our girls have two very different personalities which the staff recognised, and have catered to their different needs in a gentle and loving way. They have gone above and beyond to make sure we all feel welcome. Knowing our girls are in a safe space with such caring staff means I am able to relax and get the time I need to use the gym and reset. We are very grateful for the wonderful team. (Hannah Sutton.)

For the past 3 years I have made regular use of Health & Sport’s childminding service for my youngest child, often 2-3 times per week. From her first visit age 1, through to now (age 4.5 years), the wonderful team have been unbelievably caring, thoughtful, kind, and genuinely interested in not only my daughter but each of the children in their care. It’s a pleasure for both parents and little ones to drop them off, knowing they will have fun in such a creative environment with activities to suit babies through to pre-schoolers, and excellent staff ratios. As a busy working Mum with three children, this well-priced service has enabled me to be able to fit exercise into my week. (Laura Howard.)

Just wanted to pass on my thanks to the ladies in childcare. I’m a first time mum and have the usual anxieties but they are AMAZING and really put my mind at ease. So grateful I can get some alone gym time while my baby boy Carmy (Carmen) is being so well looked after. Just wanted to pass on positive feedback! (Leigh Stockton)
