DEAR FRIENDS,
It is a trend today among the people of all ages to join a gym or go to a health club, no matter what the charges are.''ANDHERI SPORTS CLUB''is one such place where people throng in the evening, for swimming, exercise, aerobics,yoga,and various indoor games.They have a big list of games and events displayed outside complex for which you can take admission.
Invariably I have found that the students were always there on time and the coaches were missing. I had a bad experience with them, even when my children had joined swimming, where the coaches did not show any interest on the new comers.There is no discipline as far as the timing is concerned. Many of them come from very distant places thinking it must be a reputed one and more affordable.So many big events take place in sports complex, then why be a cut throat only in case of the local residents.
Another instance is that last year I had joined for Aerobics.The class was to start the following week. Myself and few other students who had enrolled for aerobics had arrived on time. We were asked to go to the second floor for our class. All the rooms were locked and the entire area was quite with just a few of us waiting for the coach to come. We spent one hour waiting for the coach but there was no sign of him. When we came down even the watchman had left and I could not lodge a complain.
This happened continuously for 3 days, then I had my doubts about the regular attendance of the coaches. I had to raise my voice and withdraw my membership from there. I honestly feel even if you pay a little more it is better to go to a reputed gym, rather than going to such cheats.
SO BEWARE..................
