Ok, so The Roller Girls are difficult to review, since they are technically not a business, and The…read moreArc is only their training arena. And although they play sports, you'll be hard pushed to pin them down since they're on wheels and you'll be eating their dust before you know it! The troupe brought the American sport of Roller derby to Scotland, and have grown remarkably since I first heard about them in 2007. They have expanded, moved from strength to strength and absolutely commend them for the work they put into maintaining their squad! The roller derby is a competitive sport for girls where you tactically rollerskate in a formation and attempt to defeat your opponents by bringing them off their wheels. It's not for the faint of heart but it's certainly not violent - it actually looks like super awesome fun! The girls work really hard at promoting themselves, and have had a lot of air time and news coverage over the years. With Drew Barrymore's film Whip It hitting the screens this month, I can only see their profile gaining even more credibility. They compete all over the country and occasionally beyond and I can testify to how approachable and dedicated the women are. I love them! Their tight knit team is an outstanding example of what can be achieved through dedication (and a bit of passion); I very much admire them. They are running intakes towards the end of May and I'm considering going along. I've been watching them from the wings for years and now the time has come to give it a bash! (Pun intended).

Your season opening 2015 with Berlin Bombshells was my first Roller Derby…read more I am not keen to go on any sporting events. Yet, this changed, thank to You, and it was a awesome experience for me. I am one of your fans now. :-)

I went along for 3 day intro course. Loved it. Wanted to join up, but the price was a little steep…read more Got offered a price at 60p/m, then they bumped their prices up to 65p/m for only three classes per week. But, I was told the price would be honored. I then contacted back to join up at the agreed rate, and they are no longer honouring their word and replied back with, "Not offering discounts at the moment". This wasn't a discount offered, it was the prices when I initially went along. They have went back on their word and just want more money.

I went some time ago looking for a PT, the guy I talked with was quite rude with me, as soon we…read morestarted to talk he answered to me like this: "I do not take Crap" (because I said that I need someone that pushes me to exercising) "What do you do, do you hibernate in winter, this is Scotland?" (as I answered to this guy that I do not like running very much and I do not like much the rain), so on.. The most unpleasant person met in the past year, very unprofessional. and also irresponsible making his clients running around the block with heavy weight on their shoulders. His clients can hurt themselves and other people, also if one of that weights fall on the road can create car crashes.. You should supervise them at all the time. Btw Omipotent.. not you are not.

They have a good selection classes in the timetable , and it is worth paying monthly as can be costly . I love the CXWORX & Body Balance class & i have just tried Body Pump a bit hard but will try again ! The staff are helpful and i just had my gym review , which you can request when joining and later when you need a new program . I would recommend North Woodside

LOCAL!! Him Indoors…read moreand I went for a wee swim this afternoon and it was VERY pleasant!! I'm glad the pool is open and functional again (there was a period where the pool was closed for maintenance-seemed like it was closed FOREVER!!!) The leisure centre is clean and all the staff is friendly...they never complain when ones asks for floaties when in the pool!! ;-) There are loads of classes offered here too, as well as the pool...I'd recommend getting the unlimited monthly plan if you're gonna be going to classes etc too, it'll be the cheapest way!! And that way you won't have to pay the EXTRA (!!!!) for the steam room and sauna..!! The only reason this is not a full five stars is because the spa hasn't been open the last few times I've been (apparently they're waiting for a part...) and that they close at four at weekends!!

Me and my friends go here all the time. This place is the best pool place in Glasgow by a mile…read more You will always find a table here as they have loads. They have American pool. Good music that you could play Metallica and Megadeth all day on:) the price you can pretty much book a table all day for a set price, and you would easily get your money's worth. Just looks so cool here. It's across from the solid rock cafe and beside the 2 heided men. The Bar staff are lovely and friendly. Great place to come on a weekly basis.

Every year, an award winner at the Scottish BAFTAs will make a dramatic criticism of the Scottish…read moreFilm Industry. At this gala event, the guests will shift uncomfortably in their fancy dress, and applaud. Then they wait until next year, for another attack. Members get advance screenings of new films, not just the Scottish ones (they would hardly get value for money out of it). If this BAFTA was set up to support the Caledonian cinema, it hasn't done that well: if it is viewed as an enthusiastic club for cinephiles, it is fantastic. The annual awards do bring attention to the Scottish industry, which is more than other organisations manage, but it difficult to understand where BAFTA fits. It does give credit to local filmmakers, which is nice, but it rarely troubles the national scene.

As a visitor from the states, I was a little worried about the distance walking from the Hilton…read moreGlasgow across town, but it didn't take but 15 minutes. A good warm up. I just showed up and hoped to jump in a game that was short men. I lucked out and some guys asked me in. Good bunch of football lovers of all skills. The bar also carries ESPN (not something all the bars and pubs seem to carry) so a lot of additional games Sky isn't carrying are always on. Only con is that the artificial pitches were a lot less padded than I'm used to playing on. The one we were on seemed a bit hard but overall, the pitches were pretty nice. Word from the front desk is that it may be easier to find a pick up game during the week rather than on the weekend. If the Rangers or Celtic are playing that night, don't expect a lot of games - expect cancellations :)
