Update: I’ve now been a member for 7 years and all what I said 6 years ago (below) are still true today. A very happy member of The Lab. The Lab is a great gym, spa and health club. I’ve been a member for a year now and always look forward to going there! There is a lovely swimming pool, and the gym floor has leafy views (very pleasing to the eye). The equipments of the gym and their class variety are alright (for my expectations) although I’ve seen gyms that offer even more. I’ve never used their beauty treatments but it’s good to know they have these facilities. The staff are very professional, friendly and welcoming. Their cafe, with an Italian chef, is an extra bonus with great coffee and light food choices. Update: I love the fact it is located on top of a hill in a beautiful garden, but there is no public transport that takes you there. It’s my little sanctuary that makes me feel relaxed as soon as I walk in and feel great every time I leave! Keep up the good work team Laboratory! Thank you.
I joined the Laboratory club in Muswell Hill one year ago and have really enjoyed it. It is a wonderful sanctuary with a gym, swimming pool and a fantastic cafe overlooking the beautiful grounds. It is a very special place with friendly staff. I unfortunately became ill in May with a life threatening illness - I decided I needed a trainer to rebuild my strength. The personal trainer Roxani has been wonderful, guiding me through strength exercises in a fun and supportive way. I couldn’t ask for more dedication and support. I highly recommend this club.
Overall happy with it, rejoined after a 17 year gap. The gym is good, friendly staff, excellent PT Roxani who understands fitness for my age group ( 60 yo) Classes generally been good lovely Zumba ( Claire) excellent Pilates ( Alison) wonderful yoga ( Lisa). Cons certain classes are very oversubscribed and hard to get into. I have fed back to reception and one of the managers about the studio ( yoga one) windows being dirty a few times and nothing has been done. Air con seems hit and miss in that room also same for gym. But overall it’s giving me what I wanted from joining.
My experience at The Laboratory has been nothing short of fantastic. The classes are energizing and motivational, with plenty of options for modifications, and the entire staff is warm, encouraging, and genuinely invested in your progress. About a month ago, I began working one-on-one with Roxani, and I can’t say enough good things about it. She’s incredibly attentive to my form, often noticing details I wouldn’t have thought of, and she truly listens to my body—even better than I do! I've seen significant improvements in my strength, but what stands out most is how comfortable I feel with her. That ease has made a huge difference, especially since I was initially nervous about working with a new trainer. I’d recommend Roxani to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, supportive, and attentive trainer!
I am a founder member and joined in 1995 when the swimming pool was a quarry. Used to enjoy Founder member merchandise which disappeared ages ago so I feel like any other Joe until I tell people. I be therefore invested a lot in the lab over the years and clearly rate it highly as I’ve never left and don’t intend to.
