Great gym. It is a bit small compared to many other Virgin Active gyms so it has limited equipment and floor space but if the goal is to workout, you will certainly find a way. My biggest qualm is their weekend working hours, the gym closes at 2pm which is a way too early by Virgin Active standards.

As a non-member supporting the Kauai shop for coffee, I was requested to leave the premises as I am not a member😡. Very unimpressed and VERY EMBARRASSING as a Virgin member from our cycling group had to buy my coffee on my behalf. How disappointing. Virgin Active Thornhill, Polokwane will NEVER see me as a member.😡

This gym is well equipped but is slightly to small for the amount of people.
