JWC Health & Fitness - Holmes Chapel: Opinions
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of JWC for six months now and I’ve loved it. I’m not the most confident or outgoing person, so the thought of going to any gym was quite intimidating, especially as I didn’t really know what I was doing. Add a group of strangers into the mix and it felt even more daunting, but I’m really glad I pushed myself to try it. The coaches are friendly, approachable, and really supportive. Having PT-led classes where everything is set up and explained has made a massive difference and takes all the stress out of it. The other members are great too. Even at 6am there’s a good atmosphere and plenty of friendly chat, but there’s no pressure at all if you just want to get your head down, workout and head off. I’d 100% recommend JWC to anyone intimidated by regular gyms or the idea of group training but is looking for somewhere supportive to improve their fitness and have a laugh at the same time.
This is such a lovely review Lee. We love having you as part of the JWC community. Here's to many more 6am sessions!
Fantastic experience: I have been a member for almost 2 years now and I have really enjoyed the variety of classes including Hyrox, the great team, and tracking my progress with the inbody assessments. I have found myself getting to the gym more often with the scheduled group sessions than with anytime solo gyming. Coach Sally is awesome
Thanks for the review Sam, lovely to hear you're enjoying your training so much with us!
Fantastic experience: If you’re pregnant & want to exercise safely Sally at JWC is the PT for you! Throughout my pregnancy journey I wanted make sure my baby was safe but keep some of my fitness. Throughout my pregnancy Sally tailored my sessions which made me feel I had a workout & that my baby was safe. I have now started the mummies classes with Sally & I can definitely tell a difference in my fitness levels compared to my first pregnancy when I didn’t exercise. I feel a lot fitter & stronger. The transition back to exercise post baby has definitely been a lot better this time round. Sally is very knowledgeable when it comes to pre & postnatal exercise & is always there to help & support you!
Oh this is just lovely to read Claire. Sally is a star, and we're so glad to hear the incredible experience you have had.
Thank-you for taking the time to leave us a review
Fantastic experience: JWC is the first gym I have ever had the courage to enter and the supportive coaches, friendly members and general great vibe mean I don’t need to look any further. Coach lead sessions are perfect for me with realistic goal setting, great encouragement and are actually fun and rewarding.
What a lovely review to read Ann, it is a pleasure to see how far you have come in the last year or so!
Fantastic experience: I joined JWC six months ago and I couldn’t recommend the gym enough! The staff and members are all so lovely and welcoming and the workouts are always challenging and enjoyable. I have been loving the conditioning and cardio classes as they leave me feeling accomplished and set for the day!!
Thank-you for your lovely review Melissa! We've loved having you as part of the community, here is to the next 6 months!
Fantastic experience: I attended Mummies on a Mission with Sally this week for my first exercise back postpartum. Sally was motivating and knowledgable. She made me feel very comfortable and welcome to the class, I’m looking forward to attending again!
Thank-you for your review Chloe, we love our mummies on a mission community!
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym environment with the best PTs around. Equipment is top tier. The classes are full of energy and experience. Would 100% recommended to everyone!
Thank-you so much Olivia for your kind review!
Fantastic experience: Whilst being at Uni, I started back at JWC doing the partner PT sessions with Lucy, and it's been great, very accommodating and knowledgeable. Lucy has been able to work with my and my friends different needs really well. We have lots of fun in our sessions, which makes it enjoyable. Inbody speaks for itself, 7.4kg down with a decrease in 3 visceral fat levels
Epic results Abi! We're so glad you've seen great progress during your PT sessions at JWC - here's to 2026's progress!
Fantastic experience: I have been having PT sessions for a few months with Lucy and she is an amazing coach. She’s so fun and is more like a friend than just a trainer which makes the sessions comfortable and enjoyable. She definitely still pushes me and knows exactly when to challenge me to do more than I think I can. I’ve made so much progress with her and I really look forward to our sessions!
What a lovely review to read - Lucy is definitely a fabulous Coach, and we're really glad you've found your sessions enjoyable and challenging!
Fantastic experience: These stars are for Coach Lucy. I recently completed a PT block with her and as well as increasing my strength, I actually enjoyed it! Lucy not only knows her stuff but made my sessions feel relaxed and something I actually looked forward to. She's authentic and reads people well, so knows when to be supportive and when to push you harder. She created a tailored programme, was creative with adaptations when I needed them and I got results and had fun along the way
Thankyou for this lovely review Lucy, we're so glad you enjoyed your sessions with Coach Lucy, she is wonderful.
Look forward to seeing you in our classes now going forward with your strength gains!
Fantastic experience: I completed a Half Hyrox Sim and this being my first one I did not know what to expect but I can tell you was not disappointed. Great staff and location were spot on and the event itself was very well ran and clear instructions which exercises were next and set out very well. Loads of feedback from staff,which I was able to take into future events. I would definitely recommend booking a sim at this gym as very reasonably priced and excellent equipment and set up. Will be booking another sim at this gym.
Ah Ben this is very kind, thank-you for taking your time to review us, it was great to see you so happy at the end with your race, you did great. We hope to see you back in soon
Fantastic experience: i did a full Hyrox mixed double simulator today and from the minute i booked it was so well communicated and organised! the team was sooo friendly too. They even text you results! better organisation that the real Hyrox
Thank-you for your review Lois, it was great to meet you and Llyod you both did brilliant
Fantastic experience: As always a great event run by fabulous people at a brilliant venue
Thanks Simon, epic to see you again, fingers crossed for few more in 2026
Fantastic experience: Great gym for people that want to work hard, get sweaty and see meaningful changes. Also they run a great Hyrox SIM if you want to push/test yourself.
Thanks for the review Adam!
Fantastic experience: First ever time doing a Hyrox sim today and have followed JWC on socials for ages so it was a no brainer when I decided to do one, which it would be! From first arriving to leaving all of the staff were welcoming, helpful and really friendly giving lots of encouragement and advise. I’ve already booked the next one!!
It was fabulous to meet you Natalie, you did absolutely brilliant this weekend. Looking forward to welcoming you again in the future!
Fantastic experience: I recently signed up to Personal Training sessions at JWC as a way of reintroducing myself to attending a gym regularly after failing to do so for far too long. The PT sessions have been very enjoyable and beneficial at the same time and have provided a great foundation for joining the class sessions very soon. The atmosphere in the gym is very friendly and not intimidating in any way at all and it is attended by people with a wide range of fitness levels. The trainers are very knowledgeable, and provide plenty of encouragement and great advice. I can highly recommend JWC for anyone looking for a gym regardless of ability as there really is something for everyone.
What a lovely review Mike. thank-you for taking the time to do this, lovely to hear you're enjoying your time with us . Here's to more fitness progress in 2026!
Fantastic experience: As a repeat gym absconder, i joined JWC in the hope of sticking it out. My fitness was poor and my muscle mass depleting. Ten months on and i am still a member and I regularly attend classes. The exercise is class led and so i find it engages body and mind . Add to this the positive and friendly atmosphere from the instructors and fellow gym members, and it is a pleasure to attend. The classes are small and so the instructors are attentive to technique and the correct exercise repetition or weight for you personally. The class booking system is easy to use and i have found class availability good and there is a mix of classes dependent upon your goals and ability. As a HYROX gym there is a mix of elite athletes and those who just need to look after themselves, its up to you and it works well. Thank you team JWC for all your support, i feel much heathier, fitter and a good few kilos lighter than this time last year.
Thank you Lynsey, pleasure to have you on board! Here’s to another 10 months
Fantastic experience: Always friendly and supportive environment @ JWC. I'm no 'gym bunny,' but my excellent and supportive PT, Lewis, and their instructor-led classes keep me working. I appreciate just turning up, following the class or instruction. I have no doubt I wouldn't work as hard in a self-directed gym...
Thank-you for your lovely review Matt! It's been great to see you're progress over the years and were glad you've found a gym that makes you feel supported and motivated!
Fantastic experience: Have taken part in the Christmas PT promotion and think that the Sessions from my Instructor, Kate have been Excellent.. Kate has made the sessions varied and challenging. Nothing is too much trouble. Fab!
Thank-you for this lovely review Karen! Looking forward to seeing what progress you make into the new year!
Fantastic experience: Before joining JWC I had never been a member of gym. I started working with Sally as my Personnel Trainer just under 2 years ago with the primary goal of improving my muscle strength ( I get a lot of aerobic exercise as a keen cyclist). The PT sessions were initially very much a means to an end, but they have become enjoyable in themselves. Sally has been an absolutely fantastic coach. The way she plans and puts the sessions together to make them varied, challenging and fun ( I can’t believe I put fun). Sally blends perfectly pushing me harder and praising me. For certain my strength and core have improved. I am sure that Sally’s PT sessions will ensure that this continues. JWC itself has a very welcoming atmosphere. It feels like all the coaches care. They are friendly and enthusiastic.
Thank-you for this kind review Alistair, we love watching you train week in week out and share your cycling achievements with us! Keep up the good work
Fantastic experience: I was a member at JWC for 2 years. I joined because I wanted to get back into a regular fitness routine that fitted around work and 3 children. The team are friendly, helpful and super knowledgeable and the range of classes is excellent. For me, the magic was the community and how friendly and supportive everyone is. Because it is all classes and you’re often paired up it was easy to get to know people and there was always a familiar face. This isn’t just a space for the super-fit, it is welcoming and encouraging to all. And you will see the gains. Am sure I’ll be back.
Thank-you for the lovely review Ashley! Ah we miss you and hope to see you return soon when circumstances align again.
Fantastic experience: JWC Holmes Chapel is an incredible gym. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and supportive, and they make you feel genuinely welcome from day one. They helped me prepare for and complete my first HYROX — from booking the SIM sessions they offer to improving my technique and helping me understand the rules. I’d definitely recommend joining to anyone.
Fantastic experience: Completed my first Hyrox Sim with JWC a few days ago. The event was really well organised and the coaches were super friendly and helped ease my first timer nerves. I thoroughly enjoyed it and will definitely be back. Thanks guys!
Fantastic experience: Had a great time! Coaches were super friendly, helpful and supportive. Great equipment and set up, looking forward to coming again next month
It was great to meet you all! Look forward to seeing you return in the future - thank-you for your review
Fantastic experience: Am amazing experience. Well set out gym and ran really well. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thanks for your lovely review Kerry
Fantastic experience: My husband and I have been having a mixture of 1:1 and paired PT sessions with Lewis. Due to various injuries we were a bit cautious about getting back into exercise and unsure what we were actually capable of. Lewis has been a fantastic coach, working on building up our strength and general fitness levels to the point where we have more confidence in ourselves and given us the real desire to accomplish more and continue our fitness journey throughout our 60’s. I would absolutely recommend Lewis as a PT/coach to anyone, whatever your age, fitness levels etc. He works with us and plans everything to make the most of every minute, is always encouraging and knowledgeable, advising and guiding us on correct stance, position, technique and adds challenges to really push ourselves, at the same time always checking that we are comfortable with each exercise. Looking forward now to continuing our fitness journey in group classes at JWC.
What a lovely lovely review, thank-you for taking some time to write this out Karen. We're really glad of your progress over the last few months, and are looking forward to seeing your progression into our Group sessions in the new year!
Fantastic experience: Undertook a Hyrox sim at JWC on 8th November. Very well organised from start to finish, communication before event regarding start time was good and on the day staff were friendly and welcoming. Overall could not fault anything apart from my own fitness.
Thanks for your kind review Scott - epic day you did brilliant, hope to see you again soon
Fantastic experience: I joined JWC for the 8 week spring shape up, and I’ve now been a member a little over six months and I’m loving it! As I was very apprehensive joining it made such a difference that the coaches and other members are so welcoming, friendly and positive! The classes are extremely well run by the coaches and thoughtfully put together, giving me so much motivation and (much needed!) direction! PT sessions with Sally have helped me pinpoint what areas to focus on and her knowlegde and experience keep me on track. JWC has completely changed my mindset of going to the gym and I would recommend it to anyone - especially beginners or those who might feel nervous about joining a gym class. Highly recommend!
Ah this is such a lovely review Fran! Thank-you for taking the time to do this. It's been great to watch you progress since you first started and we can't wait to see what the next few months bring! Well done to you
Fantastic experience: I recently joined JWC for classes after a lot thinking (and putting off!) and wish I'd done it sooner!! I really fancied a change and a mix up with a focus on strength training and it has delivered, and this is someone who has never really done weights, let alone in a class format. The induction was professional, friendly and gave me the confidence to get going in a new setting. There are a great range of classes where you can work on your personal goals/ journey with excellent coaching support and a friendly vibe in the gym. Never thought I'd hear myself say it, but love these classes and how it all works. I'd say, if your thinking about it, just do it!
What a lovely review Catherine, it's been a pleasure to see you improve so quickly as well! Thank-you for your kind words, looking forward to seeing you progress in a few months time too
Fantastic experience: I was a member at JWC back in 2023 and I left when I had a baby. I then decided I would try a mainstream gym when I was ready to go back into exercising again. I tried two different gyms that whilst they maybe the ‘cheaper’ option, nothing compares to JWC. The monthly group PT membership is worth every penny and the difference in myself physically and mentally already after few weeks is something I am so happy with. The coaches are all so lovely and classes are hard work, yet fun with positive vibes. I absolutely love it here and would encourage anyone, particularly beginners or people who maybe anxious to attend a gym class like I was to give it ago. It’s truly the best around and you wouldn’t be disappointed! ✨
We love having you back Laura!! Here's to seeing your progress over the next few months
Fantastic experience: I’ve absolutely loved attending Mummies on a Mission and am so sad that this journey has got to come to an end as I return to work next week. I love being in a gym and the circuit style classes. It’s also the only class in our week that is for me! The bonus is that my daughter loves it too, she sits on the mat in the middle and is everyone’s biggest cheerleader, clapping for all the mummies! Sally is an amazing coach. I love that each session is different and how she has challenged, supported and encouraged me in regaining my strength and fitness after having my little girl.
What a lovely review Rosie! Thank-you for utilising our mummies classes over the last few months, we're really glad you have enjoyed them with our lovely Sally!
Fantastic experience: I have been a PT client of Lewis for the past 3 months focusing on improving my conditioning as I have just turned 50. He has listened to my objectives and set out clear goals for both exercise and diet, which works well along side my own training away from JWC. Lewis creates a motivated and competitive approach which is both enjoyable and effective. I can highly recommend him as a PT.
Thanks for the review Dunc, really glad to hear you're benefitting from your 2:1 sessions with Lewis!
Fantastic experience: I took part in a Full HYROX Simulation ant JWC and I can honestly say it was an outstanding experience. Everything about the event was professional, well organised, and delivered to a really high standard – it felt like the real race environment from start to finish. What stood out most for me was the coaching. The team didn’t just run the event smoothly, they took the time to give personalised feedback on my performance. Their advice was constructive, encouraging, and really specific to where I can improve – which is exactly what you want when preparing for race day. If you’re preparing for HYROX, I can’t recommend JWC enough – you’ll get the best mix of real-race practice, expert advice, and confidence for the big day.
Thank-you for the feedback! It was great to meet you Chris, you did a great job. Looking forward to seeing you back again in the future
Fantastic experience: Really well organised and a great intro for my first taste of a Hyrox event prior to Birninghan next month
Great to meet you Debbie, well done on completing the SIM! Good luck with Birmingham
Fantastic experience: Very good quality, well organised and supported SIM event. Will definitely return
Thank-you for the review! Hope we can see you again in the future!
Fantastic experience: Thank you, fab team and superbly organised
You did fab! Hope to see you again soon
Fantastic experience: I attended a Hyrox SIM @ JWC. The team were great, knowledgeable and friendly. The Hyrox SIM was maticously run too
Great to have you guys down! Hope we can see you again in future!
Fantastic experience: Amazing atmosphere, great set up and very motivating friendly team to spur you on.
Thanks for your review Nicola!
Fantastic experience: Visited the gym for Hyrox Sim over the weekend. Well organised. Thank you for the support!
Great to meet you - you did brilliant
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed my half sim this weekend! Very well organised, seamless from start to finish!
Smashed it ladies! Thank-you for your lovely feedback
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member a little over a month now and I’m loving it! The coaches are all so good, they push you in every class and are so encouraging!! Everyone has been so welcoming and the community spirit in the gym is something I’ve not seen anywhere else! Highly recommend!
You're doing amazing Emma! Well done! We can't wait to see your progress in a few months time
Fantastic experience: Really welcoming group, both instructors and other class members. They push you hard but are sensitive to areas where you need to build confidence first :)
Thank-you for your kind review Kim! Great to have you on board, looking forward to seeing your progress over the next few months
Fantastic experience: Really welcoming group, both instructors and other class members. They push you hard but are sensitive to areas where you need to build confidence first :)
Thank-you for your kind review Kim! Great to have you on board, looking forward to seeing your progress over the next few months
Fantastic experience: I started going to the mummies on a mission classes after the birth of my son. The class is fantastic! Its led by an amazingly knowledgeable coach who encourages and supports you no matter what stage of your journey your at. This class is for everyone and provides an incredibly supportive environment. It's the highlight of mine and my sons week!
Oh this review made us smile! I'm so glad you're enjoying our mummies classes with the lovely Coach Sally!
Fantastic experience: I began attending the mummies class around 3 months post partum. It was the perfect class to focus on getting my strength and fitness back after a c section, under expert guidance and without having to worry about childcare. The sessions are great fun filled with banter and I can now do press ups again already!
Thank-you for your lovely review Sarah; great to see you improve so quickly!
Fantastic experience: Approaching a year of membership and it’s one the best things I’ve done. Great members and coaches that are knowledgable and motivating . Couldn’t recommend JWC highly enough
Where did that year go! Thank-you for your kind words Matt, look forward to seeing what you can achieve in the next 12 months with us!
Fantastic experience: This place is wonderful. 30 years out of the gym and I feel so welcomed. All the coaches are amazing and make sure you feel supported. All the members are great too and also help new members like me so very much. All in all I can’t recommend this gym highly enough for anyone, but, more specifically any women who haven’t done anything for years and years and need a boost.
Thank-you for your lovely review Sara! You've made so much progress already; we can't wait to see what else you can achieve this year
Fantastic experience: I am now coming up to a year with JWC. So far it’s been a great experience all round. The coaches are always eager and engaging. This is the first time in a long time that I have found a gym that I want to stick with.
Wow a year already! Great to have you as part of the community Simon, and fab to hear how much you're enjoying JWC
Fantastic experience: Fantastic sim for hyrox. Loved it guys!
Lovely to meet you Laura, hopefully see you at another again soon
Fantastic experience: Really well-organised and friendly event. Gym staff were super-encouraging and positive. I’m a complete novice to Hyrox so constructive feedback on what I would need to improve was really helpful. Would definitely do it again. Thank you
Thank you so much Cathy! Hope to see you again very soon!
Fantastic experience: Joined a month ago, having not been in a gym for 20 years. I was very apprehensive, but everyone has been supportive, especially the other members. The coached sessions mean you always have professionals on hand to ensure you’re doing correct technique, and have someone to encourage you when you want to give up! Lots of classes to pick from, so works well with my limited free time. So happy that I joined, can already feel a difference and excited to see what the next month brings!
Lovely to have you on board with us Jemma, really glad you have finally found a gym you feel comfortable in. We also can't wait to see what you achieve in the next few months
Fantastic experience: I signed up to JWC for their eight week summer shape-up. I am now four weeks in and have lost 3% body-fat in that time. I have tried numerous gyms in the past without seeing any results. This has mainly been due to a lack of motivation training alone. JWC has removed this problem for me. I was sceptical at first at the idea of group class sessions. However, they have been exactly what I needed. You are really made to feel welcome from the first session both by the coaches and other members. The levels of ability seem to be varied in every class and it feels like a really non-judgemental environment. The sessions are really well put together and varied to keep it interesting. Jack helped me set realistic goals and I have had regular contact since starting to keep me on track with the goals. I am incredibly satisfied with my decision to join JWC and would recommend anyone considering it to give it a go!
What a start you've had Joe, great to have you as part of the community, and we're looking forward to seeing what you can achieve in the next few months.
Fantastic experience: Recently joined JWC- Really impressed with the variety of classes available. Each session is instructor led so made really engaging and fun. Jack was supportive & very knowledgeable.
Thanks Ed. Welcome to the community - looking forward to seeing what we can help you achieve with us
Fantastic experience: I've been a member for a long time and have taken full advantage of the classes and training on offer. I'm currently working with Lewis for PT training, I really enjoy my sessions with him. He listens to me and all the sessions are tailored to suit what I want to achieve. He also encourages me to get out of my comfort zone. I trust him and I feel safe trying heavier weights or new equipment as he explains and demo's and makes sure my technique & posture are correct and I'm always surprised and pleased at what I have achieved. There is also lots of variety in the sessions and I'm not bored as I have been at other gyms. The InBody checks are really interesting and I'm becoming quite nerdy on what's good and not so good. These are a very helpful part of the PT. A useful method of checking my progress. He has advised me on nutrition which is not something I've thought too much about in the past. But it has helped to improve my endurance and fitness. I always enjoy my PT with Lewis. He is knowledge, keen to help me improve my fitness and motivating and has a sense of humour! I'm fitter and stronger than I have ever been. This has encouraged me to get back into running again. So it's a win win! So thank you Lewis.
Thank-you for such a lovely review Vicky; and for your loyalty over the years with us. Here's to many more years at JWC!
Fantastic experience: I travelled 1.5 hrs to have a go at JWC’s Hyrox half sim and it was well worth the travel.. well organised very supportive coaches and the whole event ran smoothly i would highly recommend this gym to anyone
Lovely to meet you Amy, you did brilliant! Thank-you for making the journey, and we hope we can see you again for another in the future
Fantastic experience: Excellent Sim, laid out really well, attentive and friendly coaches on hand . Fully recommend for anyone dipping theirntoe into Hyrox or like me, testing an injury before the real thing
Thank-you for taking your time to leave us a review. It was great to meet you, we hope to see you in the future at another!
Fantastic experience: We had our first Hyrox sim experience today at JWC and it was a pleasure from the moment we arrived. Great venue only improved by the JWC team who made us feel welcomed and gave out great coaching help all the way round . Trying to get into a full Hyrox event in the UK feels impossible at times so make sure u give JWC a go if u miss the next ballot
Thank-you so much for the lovely review Ian. Really glad you had a great time, and it was lovely to meet you! Hope to see you return again in the future
Fantastic experience: PT sessions with Coach Lewis are excellent. Totally tailored to my goals/age/medical conditions and always challenging to ensure I’m making good progress. I would never have achieved what I have without Lewis’s direction and support. Every exercise is demonstrated and explained fully and I am observed and corrected as necessary. Regular InBody checks provide a definitive measure of where I am and what I need to do going forward. Top recommend
Thank-you for the lovely review Sharon! Great to hear you've seen lots of benefit from your sessions with Coach Lewis
Fantastic experience: I have been having PT sessions with Lewis Newstead for the past few months now and they have been really fantastic! Lewis is a really friendly, patient and knowledgable trainer and he has really opened my eyes to weight training. I have trained training a number of times in my life but have never really got on well with it - I can sincerely say that Lewis has changed that. I have attended sessions with both my mum and by myself and Lewis has been able to tailor the sessions perfectly despite me and my mum having different goals. More broadly, the gym is great! Everyone is very friendly and the equipment is in brilliant condition. Can honestly recommend to anyone looking for guided training!
Really glad to hear you're enjoying your sessions with Coach Lewis. Thank-you for your kind words also about the gym itself. Look forward to seeing you in for many more sessions at JWC
Fantastic experience: JWC is an excellent gym, I have tuition from Lewis who I can’t recommend highly enough. I had suffered from back problems and was advised by a physio to build up my core muscles. Lewis understood my requirements and has built up a regime to suit my needs. Joining JWC was exactly what I needed, I am in my mid 70s and can honestly say that I am more agile than I was 5 + years ago.
You're doing brilliant David, great to see your progress with Coach Lewis! Here's to lots more 18 holes around the golf course!
Fantastic experience: After a spell seriously ill in hospital I started training with Lewis at JWC. He has helped me improve muscle mass and cardio fitness massively. His sessions are tailored to my needs and abilities but he will also push me to do more each week. Would highly recommend
Thank-you for the lovely review Jo. Really glad to hear you're seeing improvements and are feeling healthier for it - keep it up
Fantastic experience: Recently completed a Hyrox half sim at JWC - at was so so impressed with everything! From communication before hand to the running of the day and the staff. Everything was perfect- thanks so much Team JWC for an amazing experience! Cant wait to do it all again soon!
Thanks for the review Steph, lovely to meet you guys - hope to see you again very soon
Fantastic experience: JWC is the best gym you could sign up to. Not only are the coaches all so friendly and welcoming but they also care about helping you reach your targets and goals. It’s nearly impossible to skip the gym for long as Jack or one of the team will be messaging to encourage you back to it. I was apprehensive about group classes at first but everyone is so lovely I always feel comfortable going in. The classes are all brilliant and PT sessions are more than worth it. Couldn’t recommend enough!!! All of the coaches have a great sense of humour and keep the classes as fun as exercise can be. Unfortunately Jack won’t let your waffling get in the way of his sessions and jokes about him NOT being 21 result in extra sets!!
Thanks for the review Amy, lovely to hear you're enjoying your time with us - here's to many more years at JWC we hope!
Fantastic experience: Here we are, another six months have passed and I'm still a regular. I have also got a new PT, Lucy. She's been terrific, really taking the time to understand my goals and tailor my programme to those specific needs. I can highly recommend her. Committed, motivated and invested in ensuring I'm making progress, whilst at the same time reacting to those days when I'm under the weather, nursing an injury or just not quite feeling it. Keeping me motivated, holding me to account and reminding me that we can't go flat out all the time.
Thank-you for your updated review
Fantastic experience: Did a half sim there today, very welcoming professional and organised. I would highly recommend, what an amazing facility and coachesi
Lovely to meet you Carole! You did so well! Hope to see you again soon
Fantastic experience: The best coaching team!!
Fantastic experience: I joined JWC in early March. Sat down with the team, discussed my goals and took an inbody reading for a known starting point. My experience has been great up to now. Iv just had my 2nd inbody scan to see progress and iv lost 2.5% body fat, increased my muscle mass and lost weight ! Thanks to the team for pushing me every session I have attended. Would recommend anyone who wants to start somewhere to improve their fitness to come to JWC. Every single member of staff is more than welcoming and it's just a great place to be.
Awesome to welcome you to the JWC community! Epic results, here's to more progress!
Fantastic experience: Love it , everybody Super friendly, give it a try
Thanks David! Looking forward to seeing you at your next one in July
Fantastic experience: First time at JWC and never done Hyrox before. Very friendly, welcoming and encouraging staff. Great experience.
Thanks Rich, great to meet you too
Fantastic experience: I've been a member of JWC Gym for 7 years now, and I can confidently say it has been a great experience. Over the years, the gym has consistently provided excellent facilities, top-notch equipment, and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps me coming back. The range of equipment is impressive, with everything from cardio machines to free weights and resistance equipment. It's clear that the gym is always kept up-to-date and well-maintained, which makes every visit a pleasant one. What I appreciate most is the community. The staff are always friendly and supportive, and there's a real sense of camaraderie among the members. Whether you're a beginner or a gym goer everyone is encouraged to push themselves and achieve their fitness goals. In addition to the great equipment, JWC offers a variety of classes, One on one PT with Becky that I’ve thoroughly enjoyed over the years. The instructors are professional, motivating, and knowledgeable, making each class a great experience. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and motivating gym to reach their fitness goals.
Thank-you for your lovely detailed review Houyam! Here's to many more years at JWC!!
Fantastic experience: I joined JWC in 2020 and it was the first gym I’d ever joined. The coach led classes gave me so much motivation but also ensuring I was safe and doing everything correctly. I have mixed group classes and PT sessions with Becky. I would highly recommend JWC for anyone. The classes are varied and the gym is a friendly environment.
Thank-you for your review Emily! Here's to many more 6am's!
Fantastic experience: I joined JWC approx 15 months ago. I’ll be honest it wasn’t a decision that I made for myself! My dearest other half bought me “Beginner to Winner Programme “ and six PT sessions ( not forgetting the fit bit for my birthday!. My first reaction ,” how rude “ that’s a clear message coming my way ( lol) Now I look back 15 months and actually it was the best gift I could’ve received .. it’s been the gift that keeps on giving .. it’s such fun , I’ve made new friendships, pushed my self to levels i didn’t realise I could with the encouragement and belief from the amazing team of coaches and the friends I have made along the way . At 55 I’ve never felt fitter and stronger than I’ve ever done, yet I know I still have a lot more to give & focus on . Thank you JWC for being that bit different, for making it easy to walk through the doors and know I don’t need to make the next decision as to how best to work out, as the class has already been expertly pre -planned. I now turn up for me , not because initially it was a birthday gift but I genuinely feel like I’m cheating myself if I don’t !
Thank-you for taking time to leave a review Suzanne! What lovely words! We're proud of what you have achieved, and looking forward to what's to come!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of JWC for several years. My daughter is also a member and loves it as much as I do ! The group PT format is the perfect one for me as I don’t drive myself in a traditional gym environment. The class numbers are capped so the trainer can give everyone assistance/encouragement. I find the social side of working out with others really enhances the whole ‘feel good’ experience for me - keeping fit and healthy whilst making friends and having a laugh. The space is huge which I love and lots of equipment for everyone
Thank-you for the lovely review Mary! The place wouldn't be the same without you!
Fantastic experience: What a fantastic gym. Friendly team and a well organised Hyrox sim. Already booked on for the next one….it was that good. Thanks for your encouragement, kept us both going.
Awesome work guys at the SIM! Looking forward to seeing you at another in the future
Fantastic experience: Been to JWC twice now to do their Hyrox simulations and both experiences have been great! Both events really well organised, with plenty of information on timings etc beforehand, and on the day everything running very smoothly with plenty of space on the circuit for everyone to race and warm up. Would definitely recommend to anyone thinking about getting into Hyrox coming along to try one of the sim events - already looking to trying to improve our time at the next one in march
Thank-you for the review Adam! It was lovely to meet you guys - looking forward to seeing you at another in the future
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed the Hyrox SIM at JWC. All staff were really friendly and made you feel at ease (TBH. I guess it is a little intimidating having never done any Hyrox type events prior but there really is no need to be and the staff do make you feel very welcome), give you a tour etc. The whole event is very well planned and went like clockwork…. It is really hard though... Lots of encouragement was given and some real tips that I will use in the future. Definitely learned some things that need to be worked on . Was a lot of fun as well. RECOMMENDED Thanks JWC
It truly is hard haha! Thank-you for the lovely review; you did brilliant!
Hope to see you again in the future
Fantastic experience: Lovely gym. I attend for a hyrox sim event. Organisation was top level and the space it’s self was great. I found all the staff extremely welcoming and friendly. Shame I don’t live close, as I would be joining up in a flash!
Thank-you for the review Alice! We hope to see you travel down for another SIM in the future
Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend this gym! I started PT sessions with Sally while pregnant last year. I’d been concerned with how much to exercise and push myself while pregnant but Sally is very knowledgable and I felt completely safe and supported to continue exercising right up until I had my baby. I’ve now joined the Mummies classes with my daughter. Both Sally and Abbie are great with the babies and it’s well designed for mums to get back into fitness. It’s been a really fun and productive class and I’ll definitely miss it when my daughter is older. After my experiences with the PT sessions and Mummies classes, I’ve joined as a member of the gym. It’s a very welcoming community and the coaches are brilliant at pushing you just enough. So happy I discovered this gym!
You've done nothing but amazing Sam since starting your fitness journey. Well done to you!
Thank-you for the review, I'll be sure to let Sally and Abbie know
Fantastic experience: Having just completed the Beginner to Winner course as very much a beginner I really recommend JWC, especially if you don’t feel particular confident in exercising. Jack and Vicky have been really accommodating and friendly, always there to answer any questions and I’ve never felt overwhelmed or lost when going to the sessions. I’d like me you’ve been wanting to start improving your health but have been putting it off JWC is the perfect place to start.
Thanks for the review Carl. Amazing work on the Beginner to Winner programme, and it is great to see you still working hard in the group classes now.
Fantastic experience: Erin! Where do I start. Although young she is truly inspiring and completely professional PT. Who absolutely knows all about fitness. I have being working with her since last year with 1:1 boxing. I am absolutely reaping the benefits. I absolutely love working with Erin she keeps me on track, focus and pushes me when she I knows I can. I’m learning something new each session and we have a good rapport. Which makes a hard task easy!
Thank-you for this wonderful review for Coach Erin! I'm glad you're feeling the benefits of your PT sessions!
Fantastic experience: The team at JWC have been superb especially my PT Erin who has really focused on what I needed to improve strength and fitness. The results have been amazing. It is such a friendly place to be and I look forward to both the PT and Classes. A great community spirit
Thank-you for taking the time to leave a lovely review for Coach Erin. It's great to hear you're enjoying the sessions - and brilliant to see you joining in some classes now also.
Fantastic experience: I first joined JWC in February 2022 on the beginner to winning program and it was the best thing I ever did. I've always had an odd relationship with exercise. I really enjoyed working out however was always overwhelmed in commercial gyms due to how busy they are but also verious sensory and social issues. What I like the most is that JWC is a safe place to be yourself and be coached through exercises and pushed to go beyond your comfort zone and achieve great results if you have a goal to reach. The coaches are all friendly and make you feel like their attention is focused on you even when you're in a larger class. If you are unsure on anything or need to adapt an exercise due to injury they are extremely accommodating and their knowledge is second to none The classes are great, they're capped so it's not too busy and you're shown how to do the exercises no matter if it's you're 1st or 100th visit. Classes are all planned and well thought out with no two being the same, this provides great variety to your training and keeps things fun. I find this useful as an autistic person who needs to know how to do things and the process of the class. I find it hard to go to a commercial gym and know what to do and get overwhelmed if I can't get to what I want, so having everything set up for you and shown is great. I left the gym last summer and tried commercial gyms again, however I found myself back at JWC again because it's that great and suits my needs. I'd happily say this is the best gym I've ever been to and it's worth a visit.
You should be nothing but proud of yourself Stewart! You've come so far, and are looking forward to seeing what you can achieve this year. Thank-you for the review and kind words
Fantastic experience: Took part in a full Hyrox sim doubles with my daughter ahead of her first event—what an amazing day! JWC were phenomenal hosts: super encouraging, great communication, and brilliantly organised. Loved the separate warm-up area with plenty of kit. The sim was the perfect run-through of stations and techniques, giving us a real baseline before the big event. Honestly, couldn’t recommend JWC more—if you’ve got a Hyrox coming up, this would be perfect place to prep!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thorough review Looking forward to saving you back
Fantastic experience: It felt like such a friendly, safe and well organised environment, staff were incredible and encouraging throughout! Can’t wait to visit again soon!
Thanks for taking the time to review!! Look forward to seeing you very soon!
Fantastic experience: I did the Hyrox half sim today at JWC and it was a great experience. I was nervous on arrival but all the trainers were very welcoming and friendly. The sim was well organised and I received great tips and feedback from the professional crew. Just got home and already booked my next two (before the DOMS set in!)
Smashed it Glad we could help! Look forward to seeing you very soon!
Fantastic experience: Today was my second visit at JWC Health and fitness to practice for my hyrox. As I found with my first visit this is a brilliant venue. Very welcoming, all the staff are friendly, supportive and very encouraging. Everything is so well organised with a great atmosphere. I’ll look forward to my next hyrox sim in a few weeks.
Anther smashing effort Thanks for coming - see you very soon!!
Fantastic experience: I have recently taken part in the half Hyrox sim and it was a great experience. The event was well organised, the coaches were fantastic and supportive through out! I cannot recommend JWC enough!
Thank you so much! Make sure it isn’t your last visit
Fantastic experience: Such a warm and welcoming gym. It has really professional Hyrox SIM setup, accurate and a great family friendly atmosphere. The coaches encourage you in a way which makes it perfect for beginners and experienced Hyroxers
Lovely to see you try a SIM this weekend Jennie! Look forward to seeing you in some classes this week; training for the next one
Fantastic experience: I have been a member of JWC for well over 18 months now and loved every moment of it. The classes are extremely well run by the coaches and they are always pushing you to do better. I have also really enjoyed getting into Hyrox and that would not have been possible without the support of all the JWC staff. In addition to being a great gym, Jack and the team have also built a real community around JWC which makes JWC an even better place to be a member of.
Fantastic experience: After working in the leisure industry for 15 years and never using a gym, JWC has really got me hooked! I was worried about not sticking it out, however, the team there are amazing, I'm now in a really good routine with a variation of strength classes and cardio, my fitness is better than ever.
Hooked… that’s our evil plan!
Fantastic experience: Been a member for 4 years. During this time my fitness and Strength levels have increased and my wellness. The JWC team are great trainers as well as friends. The atmosphere is always welcoming. Highly recommend JWC.
4 years down, many more to go Keep up the good work!
Fantastic experience: I Did the 1/2 Sim HYROX at JWC today (my 3rd sim here.) and would definitely recommend it to anyone, The team was really helpful with each station giving advice and pointers, all the equipment is first class. I’ve already booked onto another.
Good to see you again today Another top performance!
Fantastic experience: Great gym, good coaches and classes. Makes progress easier due to the direction they provide.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of JWC for nearly 7 years now. It is more than a gym it is a community with lovely members and amazing events. I absolutely love the wide selection of classes and fabulous coaches. Excited to see the Hyrox accreditation and to try their new classes!
Thanks Claire, another real early member - it's hard to imagine a time pre-Claire!! Keep up the hard work!
Fantastic experience: I have been a member at JWC for nearly 8 years and can honestly say it’s such a fantastic gym! The coaches are really supportive and knowledgeable and work with you to achieve your goals. It’s fun to work out with other people and every class is different and well planned so you don’t get bored. More recently I have also had some personal training sessions with Coach Lewis which were tough but really useful in working on some specific areas I wanted to improve on. Thanks Lewis and JWC.
Thank you Sarah, a true JWC-OG! We in no way underestimate the impact of our early members in our journey!
Fantastic experience: JWC is a fabulous gym with group training for weights, cardio and conditioning workouts. I have been a member for several years and the benefit to me has been immense. Absolutely suited for all abilities it is an excellent training format which stops you from ‘getting bored’ which is what I felt like at a more traditional gym. All of the trainers are motivated professionals that are driven to help you develop and create fun programmes to help with your goals. They run introductory courses for anyone wishing to give it a try which is how I originally got started. I absolutely recommend JWC as wide ranging fitness solution.
Thank you Steve! Without you I don't know who I would direct my insults at...!
Fantastic experience: JWC has completely changed my mindset of getting up and going to the gym. There is such a community feel from the first day you walk in. All of the coaches are fantastic- so supportive and make you feel at ease during every session... whilst giving a good push along the way when needed!!! Joining JWC was definitely the right choice for me, 3 months in and loving it!
3-months down, and I can't wait to celebrate 3-years!! Thank you for the kind words, keep on smashing it!
Fantastic experience: Compared to the chaotic simulations I've encountered at other gyms, JWC's Hyrox sim is a breath of fresh air. It's exceptionally well-organised, with generous space and coaches who provide genuine, focused feedback on form and rep counts. While a true Hyrox race is unique, JWC delivers the most authentic simulation experience possible. I spoke with a lot of people who had travelled an hour which speaks volumes.
Thank you Alex, keep up the hard work - and I hope you’re looking forward to your upcoming PT sessions with Coach Becky
Fantastic experience: Erin my PT has been fantastic to work with. She is incredibly patient with someone who has never been to a gym before or used a PT. I now see it’s never too late to build strength and protect your health even as you get older. She is highly skilled at motivating me to push myself and I progress every week without fail! I have no doubt this is down to the advance planning Erin puts into the sessions she with her clients On days that I want to give up she lifts me mentally as well as physically ! In fact my mental health has significantly benefited from having a PT who gets me and this is another plus to working so closely with a PT. She is strong and ultra fit herself and a great example of someone who practices what she preaches. A big thank you to Erin and I would highly recommend her to work with.
Keep up the hard work Barbara
Fantastic experience: Well I have completed my 10 sessions today and straight away signed up another 10! Absolutely love my PT sessions with James, he encourages me, pushes me, has faith in me and my ability. My first session I could hardly walk but now I am walking taller, have better posture and most of all confidence in myself. James is always welcoming and has taken time to build my confidence even when I say I cannot do that. The programme he has built for me has been tough but I can feel the difference and feel much stronger. I really look forward to my session and find myself skipping out. Everyone is really friendly and supportive and I am so grateful to James for everything even when he adds more weights on.
When you look past James’ sense of humour, he’s a great coach Keep up the hard work Sam
