Dans Gym Ridgehaven: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Great gym, one of the few old school gym experiences still around. Best community if you don’t want to just be seen as a number but an actual member
Fantastic experience: Everything you want to know about Dan's gyms you can see on the welcome video to his web page. At first I thought it was maybe just good advertising, but meeting Dan in person you can see he's genuine about what he says in his videos. He was happy to let me try the gym out for my first session for free and went to an obvious effort to make me feel comfortable and welcome. I found the machines there much easier to use than other gyms I've been to (their machines seem to have been selected by someone who really knows their stuff) with not one single 'out of order' sign to be seen. Highly recommend.
Negative experience: Wouldn't let me close acc over phone or online. Moved. Got dodgy debt collectors to harass me for 6months for 100 bucks debt lmao 10/10 cringe
Fantastic experience: Love going to Dan's gym the staff are fantastic and helpful it's a small gym with all the gear you need.
Fantastic experience: Another great pilates session with our wonderful pilates instructor, Becky Smith.
Fantastic experience: Friendly gym, nice family feeling with the best personal trainers :)

Fantastic experience: I love this Gym everyone is so friendly .
Fantastic experience: Friendly and inclusive, not pretentious at all. Tailored PT workouts thoughtfully chosen to suit the individual
Fantastic experience: By far the best local business in South Australia
Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms in all of S.A with no B.S and a great community, definitely recommend
Negative experience: Terrible customer service from Dan Lester the owner of the chain. Zero communication and conflict resolution skills. Would never recommend. Not to mention terrible value for money. Save $200 a year and open yourself up to hundreds more locations with Anytime Fitness. The only things that Dan's Gym offers that AF doesn't have is a weighted sled and Schwarzenegger shrines. EDIT: Dan's response not only fails to encompass all true facts, it also strengthens my initial review of his poor conflict resolution and communication skills. What Dan fails to mention is that a communication between himself and myself, that I handed my key fob back 6 months ago, rendering his gyms usability null and void. He has continued to charge me weekly. Will definitely be contacting the ombudsman regarding services paid for not being provided. EDIT: AF now have weighted sleds. Only missing out on an Arnie shrine now.
Fantastic experience: Great gym, has what you need

Fantastic experience: A great gym to train in...iconic Arnold memorabilia all around the gym. Friendly staff and a really good story for a gym that is owned by Dan and not a corporate owner.

Positive experience: When you come to the gym you are greated by lovely staff whom eventually will know you by name. In fact Dan himself is always on hand listening to members concerns and managing gym right here on the ground. It's truly unlike your big chain commercial gyms, the atmosphere is like no other. It's not in any way intimidating for people starting out and there's a real care for one another amongst members. It's incredible place oriented towards family friendly atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym, you get a real mix of people training from hardcore to beginners.

Fantastic experience: This place isn't like other gyms. Dan and his staff have done their best and succeeded to make a welcoming and friendly gym that caters to everyone. There are plenty of machines and weights, and caring staff that will help you with your fitness goals and journey without the pressure. I tried a few gyms before coming here and none of them were a supportive, i can't recommend Dan's enough.
