Member Testimonials
Centres are clean and tidy staff extremely helpful.
The staff are very friendly and professional, and always happy to help. The gym is good the classes are excellent. I personally depend on the classes as I have PTSD and it is the best coping mechanism for it. The classes for me isn't just about my PTSD. It's also great for mental health, socialising, interacting, working up an appetite, keeping fit, strength conditioning, definition, stamina, endurance, cardio Etc. spin classes are excellent, and the swimming pool is good too. The life guards are very professional and train first aid on a regular basis. The spa is good to relax after any workout. And the PT instructor's in all classes are excellent 👌 thank you ballyclare leisure centre.
Friendliness of staff All very helpful
It's very convenient. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Great facility in our village
Availability of classes
Compact and neat centre. Many others are too big. Staff are wonderful, great at sorting out any issues, the personal touch goes a long way. Good range of classes, gym well equipped and always clean as is the whole building. Car parking can be problematic at times. Move the recycling receptacles.
Very welcoming and helpful staff, and a range of brilliant services at an affordable price
Great facilities
Fantastic facilities for all ages and abilities. Something for everyone.
A spacious modern gym with all the latest equipment, a popular spa area, huge sports halls, a recently refurbished swimming pool and changing area, multiple pitches for various sports and a new running track on its way. The Antrim Forum is head and shoulders above any other leisure centre in the country.
Just brilliant .
The Center is good but the shower rooms need updating similar to the valley
The amazing facilities at the centres, the great range of classes, helpful staff and instructors.
The easy to use app, available parking. This all results in a very pleasant experience when visiting the centres.
Clean and well looked after
I like that I have a choice of different centres with my membership
Local and accessible
Cost
Staff are fantastic and facilities are great
VLC has very good leisure facilities (Badminton/Gym/Yoga/Zumba classes) which my family uses regularly. My 4 year kid enjoys attending dance classes, but it is very difficult to get places as it is limited to only 15 per class. It would be good if the places can be increased for Junior dance classes as there is lot of demand and also the frequency of the classes. It would be a good edition if there are Tennis courts and training available at VLC.
Good price and helpful staff
Staff very friendly. Members of staff in Spa very good at checking everyone ok.

Convenience and range of activities
Friendly
Excellent facilities. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great variety of classes and the membership packages are very good value!
I like the following classes
Spin, pump and pilates.
Would love to see more evening pilates towards end of week or weekend pilates.
I have been attending the Antrim Forum for 7 months and I find the staff in the gym very helpful and friendly. The gym is kept very clean and apart from the problem with the locker keys missing the attachment to attach them to my clothing I am very happy with the facilities provided. I will be starting exercising in the swimming pool now that the kids have returned to school and so far the staff have been very helpful installing the steps in the water to allow me to access the water. I will provide more feedback in a couple of months. Thanks.
The centre is clean. The instructors are enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The centre staff are friendly and helpful.
Keep up the good work.
Nearby, open for a good portion of the day (during the weekdays only, unfortunately - but everyone does deserve to have a weekend). The gym is clean, bright and fresh.
Now if only I can find some more motivation down the back of the sofa...
Close to home,provide a wide variety of classes, helpful staff and good value for money.
Polite friendly staff. Clean facilities . Early morning kettle bells classes with Jo Hood are really excellent !

Firstly it is 5 minutes from my house. I use the fitness centre 3 mornings per week and book a weekly yoga class. For this level of use the £19 monthly fee for a senior citizen is very good value. The staff are very pleasant and helpful.
I would like to see an upgrade to the changing and showering facilities as it most cases they are looking a bit dated.
