The 1 to 1 packages are great to kickstart your training, nutrition and lifestyle changes. You will not regret your decision to join as a member. A huge bunch of like-minded individuals supporting one another to achieve their goals.
You are the poster boy for what can be achieved at First Class Fitness! Love having you part of it!
Fantastic experience: There is a place that said it's all under one roof. First Class Fitness is just that with coached classes, excellent knowledge and encouragement. The open gym space is like a playground so much variety of machines and all top quality everything you need & more. Most of all the atmosphere and welcoming community is amazing. Taking part in events you'd never think of trying from 10k, GNR, marathons, Triathlons, Hyrox etc. Team days are a great place to come together and support everyone its very uplifting and supportive. Great to be a part of it FCF.

Thank you Amy
Fantastic experience: I have been a member here for two years and have made fantastic progress in my abilities. All thanks to the excellent coaching provided, even during lockdown via zoom, the top class facilities and the support and friendship of all of the members. The atmosphere is always welcoming, electric at times, and incredibly supportive.
Thanks so much for you review Carole.
Fantastic experience: Hands down the best gym facility in the region. A huge range of kit and machines from weights to a variety of cardio machines. Fantastic classes led by the best, most knowledgeable coaches. I have been attending First Class Fitness for 4 years and in that time not only have I lost 8 stone but I have also had a complete lifestyle change. The coaches have been so supportive in sharing their knowledge with me so that I have never been more in control of my health and fitness. It is also a family oriented gym so my 14 year old daughter attends classes with her dad and me and my 5 year old do family class together on a Saturday. Can’t recommend it highly enough.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic set up. Just starting going as had no energy. Second week in and seeing great progress. Great for the mental health side aswell.
Fantastic experience: The best place anywhere near to start your fitness journey, or take it to the next level!
Fantastic experience: great gym great atmosphere
Fantastic experience: What an amazing facility this is. More equipment than I even know what to do with! The classes are inclusive and the coaches are encouraging. This gym is such an integral part of my life and the coaches are too - I couldn’t have achieved what I have so far without them motivating me and being behind me every step of the way. If you are wondering whether you should start at a gym the answer is yes - this gym! You will not regret it. Danielle x
Fantastic experience: The community here is amazing! Such a healthy place to be both physically and mentally.

Fantastic experience: Class gym. Trainers are so welcoming and supportive, the other members are lovely, there’s a really nice feel about the place. The classes are mad, challenging but so fun. They’ve got me addicted, I can’t say enough about how welcoming and lovely everyone is, I’ve never been to a gym where I feel so comfortable. It’s lush.

Great options for memberships, so something to suit everyone. Give it a go nothing to loose but everything to gain. Love it!!
Fantastic experience: Recently joined FCF and only wish I’d joined sooner! Everyone is so friendly and welcoming, the gym itself always has such a positive atmosphere. The coaches especially are so encouraging and really go out of their way to build a rapport with you. The classes are the right amount of challenging, and you’re never left without support - everything is gone through step by step so you know what you’re doing and why you’re doing it. Can’t fault the place at all and would recommend to anyone looking to improve their lifestyle.
Fantastic experience: I joined FCF over a month ago as I needed a change from where I was training and I love it. Best decision I ever made. Having come from Crossfit before I knew what to expect process wise but I am over the moon I joined. The coaches make you feel at home from day 1 and the facility is excellent. Ticks all the boxes. Quality!
Thank you shell, such a kind review!Great having you apart of the FCF Community!
Fantastic experience: Did a drop in for a couple days whilst visiting family. Super friendly, great coaching, amazing venue, everyone was welcoming. Will be back when I'm next up.
Great to have you with us Alistair!Thank you for dropping in!
Fantastic experience: Outstanding coaching, excellent facility and unrivalled community. Joining up was the best decision I’ve made in a long time.
Thanks Mark!
Fantastic experience: Great place and very welcoming! Would recommend to anyone of all levels and the owner is spot on!
Thank you Peter! Really appreciate the feedback ❤️
Fantastic experience: A friend of mine joined here a few months ago and wouldn't stop raving about it so when they offered most of october for free I took them up on their offer. It's been nearly a year since I last did crossfit so was nervous walking through the door but there was no need, the trainers are super friendly and these guy's know their stuff. This place blows my last crossfit gym out of the water I have had 4 sessions so far and I feel and see the difference already. Fair to say I will be joining , everyone is so friendly and you dont feel out of place, the workouts are unreal and i have walked out feeling sick from working so hard. The app is also great for keeping track of scores and PBs. Thank you for the warm welcome and i am looking forward to seeing my results during my weight loss/fitness journey, I know I will definitely get to where I want to be been here.
Thanks so much for your review Vanessa we really appreicate you taking the time do do it and love having you on board at FCF.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly and welcoming gym with an amazing atmosphere!! The programming is tailored for everyone's needs with very knowledgeable and approachable coaches....couldn't recommend this gym enough.
Thank you for your kind review Joe!
