Disgusting self centred owner who only cares about herself and the money she can make. Rude and combative owner that believes she knows better than everyone else, would love to see her real qualifications not sports diplomas . Claims to care about others as the reason she opened her gym in lockdown yet I bet she still charged. I have been to the gym
