Where are you located?
We are adjacent to Lidl, opposite My Lady Church, on the side road which runs parallel to East Meadway.
The gym is far bigger than it appears from the outside so do come and have a tour.

There is a monthly fee payable by direct debit or you can opt for a cash membership.
There are no additional fees payable for visiting the gym.

What's the difference between a peak and an off peak membership?
The only difference beside price between the two main membership types is that Off Peak excludes use of the gym Monday-Thursday between the hours of 4:00pm (last entry at 3pm) to 8:30pm. (Weekends, Friday included have no restrictions)
Peak Membership has no restrictions at all. Special offer memberships may be subject to different hours. Please check with staff before joining.
How old do I need to be to join?
Membership is open to persons 14 years and older. Members under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
What's included?
All memberships include FREE personal training sessions (approximately one hour in length) with a personal trainer which results in a customised workout programme. You are entitled to an hour free on your first and second visit to the gym and thereafter, approximately, once every 8 weeks (or if there is high availability, as often as you like).
Full Use of the Saunas (Separate Male and Female Sauna) Saunas must be booked.
What Equipment does B-Active have?
It would be quicker to say what we don't have! But to give you an idea, Olympic Lifting Platform, Powerplate Vibrating Plate Exerciser, Bikes, Treadmills, Queenax Functional Training Rig, Huge range of dumbells, Huge range of Resistance Equipment, Stairmaster, Stepper, Dual Pulley Machines, Boxing Bags, XT Bike, Concept 2 Rowers and lots more! See here.
Personal Training for free? What's the catch?
There is no catch, we want you to get the help you need to help you succeed and no, the Personal Trainers will NOT try and sell you paid sessions during your free sessions. In fact, you will never be under any pressure by a Personal Trainer trying to sell you sessions. You are entitled to 2 free sessions at the commencement of your membership and 1 session every 8 weeks thereafter. (You must be a current, paid up member to enjoy any of the services offered)
Can I freeze my Membership?
Freezing of membership is only possible for medical reasons and with necessary evidence.
Want to try it out first?
A Trial session (£8.50) enables you to use the gym equipment whilst being assisted by a gym instructor who will answer any questions you may have and write an exercise programme for you.
A Guest Day Pass allows one day of gym usage. You will not be assisted by a member of staff, you will not get an exercise programme and you need not book. You can enjoy as many Guest Day Passes as you wish at a cost of £8.50 per day.
Should you (within 24 hours) decide to join on a monthly membership, the £8.50 will be credited from your new membership.
How do I cancel my membership?
Firstly, assess the reasons why you joined the gym in the first place and why you are cancelling. If are bored with your workout or just not getting the results you were hoping for; speak to one of our Personal Trainers. They will book you in for a Personal Training Session (free of charge) and do their best to motivate and assist you to get the most benefits from your membership and to ultimately, achieve your goals.
Remember: If you have not successfully incorporated fitness into your life, you must be patient, it can take time to see benefits and to enjoy that feel good factor that makes you want to do it. Consistency is key. Just making yourslef do a little bit each week and slowly increasing your activity can make a huge difference to the rest of your life. Schedule it in, trick yourself: Tell yourself you are off the hook if you go to the gym for 15 minutes. When you get to the gym, do cardio at a reasonable pace (not a slow walk or slow motion row, you need to get your heart rate up)
Being fit and healthy improves confidence and is your number one defence against a myriad of physical and mental illnesses.
If you still would like to cancel, please use the member portal or contact the facility.
It is important that you are aware that should you cancel your membership, you will be liable to pay any admin/joining fees and current membership rates should you wish to re-join.
How do I get a refund?
Refunds will not be considered without acceptable proof of cancellation and payment of the one month notice. You are encouraged to use the facilities for the period you have paid for.
Joining/Administration fees are non-refundable. Members who took advantage of a "No Joining Fee" promotion, will be liable to pay a joining/administration fee should they cancel or allow their membership to lapse and then re-join.
