I mainly joined for the pole fitness classes. There are two, one on Tuesday which I occasionally make it to due to it being so late and another on a Friday which I try never to miss. The Friday teacher Kelly is fab, she's great at teaching multi level classes and I feel completely confident that I'm in a safe, secure, environment.

The only down side is that the poles aren't looked after particularly well, one of them at least is very scratched making it quite difficult on the hands.

Overall the facilities are good, the changing rooms are clean and have good sized lockers. They provide hair dryers...would be great if they could provide straighteners as well, I know a few gyms in London now do this.

Although I take the pole classes, I usually take another class beforehand to ensure I get a really good warm up, I usually take the Step class or Zumba. I have also tried the cheerleading classes after Wednesday Zumba (when it was at Bank last month) and all of the teachers are supportive and motivating.

Overall a great gym. I do have a linked membership which I'm seriously reconsidering as the pole class at Holborn isn't great.

If you're after an all round good set of classes, Bank is good. I can't vouch for the actual gym equipment as I've only ever taken the classes.
