🏆 Funzaroo Verdict
Best for families who can walk or cycle to the centre - parking is a genuine barrier and not solvable by arriving early. Taekwondo classes for children are a standout offering, with instructors praised specifically for their professional handling of a medical emergency in a recent review.

“Here’s the thing this is one of my favourite centres. If you’re just starting strength training and you want to learn proper technique, they run two amazing classes: Friday morning and Monday afternoon. Melvin (the coach) has helped me fix my form for deadlifts, chest press, squats - basically everything I used to hesitate with. Because of that, my fitness journey kept moving forward instead of stopping out of fear of doing things wrong. And the best part? It’s a women-only session designed to help women get confident with weight training.”

“Lovely staff at Sugden sports centre. Thank you to Tegan and Dorian the managers and Nicky and Iqbal the Taekwondo instructors who looked after my Daughter until the ambulance came on Thursday. All very professional and caring.”

“I've been here twice now. Much better than moss side gym. Good equipment. Not sure how it is when students come back though. One bad problem, parking! Manchester council should make more free parking for customers.”
