AIBU?

Well surely the point is (if you like the place) how many times will you go in a month? You have to go 9 times to 'break even'. Or find a local community gym and wait for the summer joining special :) [mine would normally be £47 pcm, but I joined on a special and as long as you stay a member the price will remain at £23.50]

A bargain is only a bargain if you will use it.
Tally up what classes you could reasonably commit to and would stick with over the the threemonths, plus swimming and gym sessions and price them up. If it comes to less than the £43 ish then no it isnt! If it comes to more then yes it is a good deal. Then sign up for the 3 months and keep a tally on how much you actually use it and compare again, then you can decide whether to re-sign or not.
I had what I thought was a great deal at a private gym (was less than you would be paying) but when it came to it, I just couldnt commit to enough sessions to make it financially worthwhile so I cancelled and went back to paying per session.

That's a very good deal.
We pay £299 per month for 7 day golf membership for DH and both of us for health and fitness membership.
We joined in Jan which was free for one month but we have to sign up for 12months.
We have been swimming and gym 1-3 times a week and since Jan DH played golf 3 times.
I dare not work out the cost per round or swim!
