Sport school in Auckland

“I have been surfing for 5 years and I was searching for private training to take my surfing to the next level. I found Piha Surf Academy and its great packages. I booked the 5 lessons package and I did my last lesson last week. The instructor was constantly giving me feedback in the water which help me correct old bad habits I was dragging throughout the years. I highly recommend Piha Surf Academy for beginners and intermediate surfers.”

“Our 2 daughters (now 8 & 10) joined Empire after attending a school holiday program with friends. We absolutely LOVE the studio and have recommended it to so many others. We particularly love the inclusive environment where students are empowered and supported to step out of their comfort zone and try new things and be their best selves. No body issues, hair styles or special uniforms required - just honest fun and friendship. My eldest has joined a competition team this year which has been a step up from the community classes in terms of commitment and skill level but she has been gently nudged and comes home every week wanting to practice and test her body and learn new tricks. She is so proud of herself every time she nails it. Thanks to Claire and Jaymie for the wonderful community they’ve developed and nurture. We love being part of it!”

The park is meticulously maintained, boasting ample green spaces that are perfect for picnics and outdoor games. Children will adore the fantastic playground area including the basketball court and the dedicated cycling area. Additionally, there are various car roads that provides a safe environment for those learning to drive. The walking trails are perfect for a leisurely stroll.

“Top line: Very good gym, great facilities. Limited space. Friendly staff, especially the manager(s) Pros: it’s quiet with sauna, pool, onsen, steam room, tennis courts, football, basketball, towels, shampoo, conditioner, iron, moisturiser, hair gel, etc Cons: found it challenging to get the initial viewing. Limited and older equipment, but it does the job! Not sure how often the sauna etc gets a deep clean. Given all the other facilities, surprised it doesn’t have a hair brush in the changing rooms, and either 1. A machine to fast dry swim wear or 2. Plastic bags to take wet swim wear home”

Good for birthdays, classes, community meetings, weddings, and offices. The team is very responsive, helpful, and friendly”

“Sue is an amazing swim teacher who makes learning fun and easy. She is patient, kind, and encouraging, always cheering her students on and helping them improve at their own pace. Her friendly personality makes everyone feel comfortable in the water, and she has a talent for explaining things clearly so even difficult techniques become simple to understand. Sue is also very supportive and motivating, always noticing progress, no matter how small, and inspiring confidence in her students. She creates a positive and safe environment, making swimming lessons enjoyable and exciting every time. Overall, Sue is not just a teacher but also a role model, showing dedication, passion, and care in everything she does.”

“Love this community space. We book it for our Toastmasters club every 2nd Thursday morning. It's been perfect for us. Highly recommend”

“Went today to get my son’s uniform sorted at the New Lynn store. The place was packed with everyone buying school uniforms. We were welcomed by Gina, who was readily available to help with sizes and what I was looking for. She was very attentive to all the customers and was helping all of us at the same time. Great customer service. A+++ for Gina. Thank you Gina ☺️”

“Went for Taekwondo and to play basketball before. Good spot for that.”

“We to after quite a number of years. Good memories. Loved it will go again”

“One of the best gyms in Auckland. Especially if you’re looking at powerlifting. This place has everything you need. Highly recommended. 5 star.”

“I visited a couple of times during my stay in Newmarket. The staff were friendly and helpful, and I can’t fault the value — a day pass was very affordable at NZD $11 (around £6 for me). Please note that this review is intended as constructive feedback and does not reflect my overall positive experience of visiting. The changing rooms felt a little run down, and a spin dryer for swimsuits would have been useful. The pool itself was a great length, though I did experience a strong chlorine reaction in my eyes. The sauna was more like a saunarium, while the steam room was excellent it was spacious, consistently producing great steam, and one of the best I’ve been to. That said, it could have been cleaned more thoroughly but maybe it was the time of day i entered, and the ceiling may need replacing at some point. Overall, I really enjoyed my time here, especially the 50m pool the first I’ve come across. Many thanks.”

“This has one of the best young kids areas I've seen, and it's heated! The staff are friendly and everything I saw is clean. It's a wonderful free resource for the community, highly recommend!”

“Genuinely an amazing soccer club to start at, I enrolled my son this year and it is going well! Hope to see more amazing things from you guys”

“Had work xmas do here..everything was good - the food, the music, the bar; the toilets were clean. Not sure if food and DJ are part of the Kolmar experience (or from outside), but they were great! Parking was a short walk away. I ubered there and it was a very short walk to the building.”

“Actually the address is 21 Newtons Rd, Newton, Auckland”

“I had a great experience recently while shopping for shoes with my partner. Alex, the store assistant, was incredibly helpful from the moment we walked in. He took the time to understand what both of us were looking for and offered thoughtful recommendations that fit our needs perfectly. Alex was patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind—making the whole experience easy and enjoyable for both me and my partner. We left the store with exactly what we wanted and a smile on our faces. Thanks again, Alex, for your excellent service!”

“They are community and hard courts. Good quality. Many car parks. Don’t hit the ball over the fence, unless you might not find it.”
