Hi replying to those on I am a big gay bear topic.
i have been to 2 naturist clubs in london, no membership required in any of them.
first one i went to was elixir health club near wood green (alexandra palace) n22 7bn
I really like being in my own skin and often go to south of france, spain on naturist beaches. i did a search on naturist places in london-half of which were only catering for men... if you get my drift.
anyway. i called up elixir and spoke to the receptionist who was nice and was happy to answer all my questions. anyway i decided to visit the club.
on arrival i was shown around th establishment. it is a small place and they had sauna steam and jacuzzi. i turned up too early for my appointment but that was not a problem as they said i could stay as long as i wanted to before and after my massage. i was then masssaged by an asian lady looked indian but i have forgotten where she comes from now.
she was very nice and frinedly, she said everyone at the club do swedish massage. her massage was fanastic. i have had massages in lots of places mostly in gyms where they either apply too much pressure or hadly any at all. she asked me a few times if it was too soft or too hard when applying pressure on my back and shoulders. i think the fact she asked me this question shows she actually cares and does not want to give a bad massage. we also had a nice conversation which makes a change to the dead silence i have been getting from the massages at my gym, mind you they say you benefit more from a quiet massage (apparently)
i think the indian massage therapist must enjoy her job beacause she was laughing and joking whilst at work on a FRIDAY night. I dont know ANY! who likes working on a friday night. She was wonderful, she had a cury body which shows she was not a stick model like some of the girls i've seen. she was normal. she made me feel comfortable being naturist and the fact she was naturist too during the massage didnt make me feel awkward at all. i do recommend this place and for those who are unsure. you should call them up and just ask any questions you need answered. 020 8888 5511
2nd club in london i went to was in kentish town called rios i think.
it was ok i suppose. no one showed me around so didnt know where anything was but its not a problem as everything you see is a facility which you can use. this place was alot bigger than the first Naturist spa i went to (elixir health club) from what i remember they had 3 steam rooms, 2 saunas 3 jacuzzis(2 small and 1 big jacuzzi.) steaming is great, it removes dead skin from the body so i like it alot. although this club had mare space it was not very friendly, there were topless bar staff who were not really interesting to speak to-they just look pretty like most pop bands. the massage there was different- therapist from thailand i think. she couldn't communicate with me. it was not a I am a big gay bear.
Both clubs price wise were similar one was bigger and one was smaller, smaller one was friendlier and bigger one had more facilities.
