bluerunner Posted April 16 Report Share Posted April 16 (edited) If management is willing to spend some money to make the room wall more sound proof, there will be no issue. In the old Novena (before renovations) loud music from spin class can be heard in the yoga room at the other end of the gym. Horrid.

Horrid. since it is going to be yoga related classes then probably won't have loud music (fingers crossed). what i dun like are those class users who talk/chat so loudly while waiting for class to start or blocking the walkway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When someone took a 20kg dumbbell, he could end up return them on the 10kg slot even though the 20kg slots are empty. Simply can’t be bothered.

VIP/blackcard members used to have access to all TF existing and new clubs. Now, we are only allowed in TF clubs and yoga center. TFX is not covered under blackcard contract. if you pay your membership fee late, TF can have the right of deny you the blackcard membership. They have not told us up right to convert to TFX or get out because there are still TF branches now. They also don’t want to get themselves into long lawsuit. If there is a direct and effortless way to eliminate blackcard members, I’m sure they will because our presence is not sustainable to their business in the long run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
