Exclusive Fitness

Fantastic experience: I recently completed the 10-week Personal Training Diploma led by Tom and Leon at Exclusive Fitness, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From the outset, both trainers demonstrated an impressive depth of knowledge and passion for fitness. Their teaching style is engaging and tailored to suit each participant's learning pace. Tom’s and Leon’s expertise in strength training combined with focus on nutrition created a well-rounded curriculum that covered both the theoretical and practical aspects of personal training. The program was structured to include a variety of hands-on training sessions, which allowed us to apply what we learned in real-world scenarios. The atmosphere was supportive and encouraging, fostering a sense of community among participants. I particularly appreciated the emphasis on client assessment and program design, which has equipped me with the tools to create personalised fitness plans. The feedback from Tom and Leon was great, helping me to refine my techniques and improve my understanding of key concepts. Overall, the diploma program was a fabulous experience that not only increased my fitness knowledge but also boosted my confidence as a future trainer. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to deepen their understanding of personal training and advance their career in fitness. Thank you, Tom and Leon, for an exceptional learning experience!

Fantastic experience: Exclusive Fitness has worked with me to creat a flexible plan for my time in Canterbury. The facility is well equiped and the trainers excellent, professional, and friendly.

Fantastic experience: Working with Leon has been excellent. It feels like the workouts are tailored to my goals, my previous injury history, and my past training experience (i.e. I usually stick to machines, while my training with Exclusive is based around free weights, where I'm less confident working out alone) Gym is clean, very well equipped, and a great environment to work towards my goals. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Exclusive Fitness for a number of months now. I started due to my complete lack of confidence, motivation and heavy dislike for exercise. Whilst I can’t say I enjoy the gym; Exclusive Fitness is the most comfortable, welcoming, accommodating and motivating place that keeps me going. All the coaches know exactly how to work with me each session whether I’m in a positive or negative mood. Best of all I have begun to see changes happen to my body and excited to keep working with them to improve myself further. Exclusive fitness is definitely the place if you’re struggling on gym knowledge, confidence building, general motivation or just want someone to push you further!

Fantastic experience: I joined to improve my general fitness and build up my muscles after a bad break to my leg. Sean has been patient and understanding of my personal needs and ongoing asthma issues whilst also pushing me to achieve my best

Fantastic experience: Been training there for years, everyone I've trained with there has been great and has great breadth of knowledge. Good facilities, with more than enough space to do workouts that you won't easily manage at home or in crowded public gyms.

Fantastic experience: Started with the guys at exclusive fitness recently, I’m enjoying it. I don’t enjoy big gyms and struggle training alone so the help provided is great. Would highly recommend if you don’t like big gyms.

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms to use in Canterbury. Fantastic staff, fantastic facilities and fantastic results. 10/10

Fantastic experience: Amazing trainers and gym! It's good to be back to a fitness routine after 2 years of Covid lockdowns. Strongly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Amazing and clean facilities! Fully equipped and well maintained. Nice location and parking available.

Fantastic experience: The entire team at Exclusive Fitness are extremely knowledgeable, flexible and tailor your training to exactly what you are trying to achieve. For me personally, I have specific cycling goals to increase my power - I didn't have any knowledge of training legs and explosiveness until they taught me about form. Then came the specific power movements, then came the results. Thank you to the entire team, it's been a fantastic journey so far and will continue until I can't train anymore!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at Exclusive since May, and Tom and the team have been excellent. The progress is already tangible - I’m developing a much better understanding of the technical side and that is significantly contributing to my overall approach. I’d particularly like to thank Karina and Jo who are both very knowledgeable and excellent at explaining how to make sure I get the most from each exercise. Can’t thank you enough.

Fantastic experience: The team and trainers at Exclusive work hard on you and your fitness goals. It’s unusual to have the experience of great personal training and on hand top quality equipment. I also enjoy the space and privacy and with covid the cleanliness aspect - which was there long before the pandemic! A great set up that I’d highly recommend to any one.

Fantastic experience: Just started my pt sessions with Exclusive fitness (Leon) and already know it’s exactly what I need to get back to being fit and healthy following injury. The private gym setting is great as no distractions and I can tell the team really listened to what I wanted to achieve! Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: I've not exercised for years and it shows, or I should say it showed! Since starting in May, the whole team has been great by finding the time to train me outside of my changing work shift pattern. The results are clear and improving week on week, and my stamina and strength are leading me to keep on losing the weight I need to shed. Without the teams support and encouragement, I would have given up. The team has great knowledge of nutrition and what exercise is required to achieve your personal goal and share this with you throughout.

Fantastic experience: Since starting my sessions at Exclusive Fitness at the start of 2023 I’ve seen fantastic results. I’m really pleased with the change in my body. The trainers I’ve worked with have been attentive and I always look forward to my sessions. The team are always willing to be flexible when I need to make changes to my schedule. I would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I've been working out with Leon for a few months now and I couldn't be happier! I was slightly nervous about starting to work out with a new trainer as a newbie in Canterbury, but Leon is not only a great trainer (very prepared and knowledgeable), he's also great to talk to, making our session a pleasure to attend ! The facilities at Exclusive are great and the atmosphere is very intimate yet motivating, which is exactly what I look for in a gym. Very happy with my experience at Exclusive Fitness and looking forward to continue my journey here !

Fantastic experience: I am new to exercise and am so grateful for the gentle (but firm!) encouragement I have received from Jo. She never makes me feel as if I can’t improve and, dare I say it - I am actually enjoying my sessions. The gym is very intimate and so the embarrassment factor does not exist and all the coaches are friendly and professional. I heartily recommend Exclusive Fitness.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Leon for a few months now. He has a good understanding of my training objectives and consistently designs workouts that meet my aims. Always attentive throughout each session and I very much feel I get value for money as well as enjoying the session. I would highly recommend Leon!!!

Fantastic experience: The trainers at exclusive fitness are very knowledgeable and motivating. In a short time I am already seeing some great results! They took time to really understand what I am trying to achieve to create a great tailored program for me, with sessions that are fun and challenging. I am looking forward to what I can achieve!

Fantastic experience: this gym was amazing. i have been training there for a while and they have genuinely helped me so much. the staff are extremely professional and the gym is extreme clean. if you need results, go to exclusive fitness!

Fantastic experience: i could not recommend this gym more, it has been a huge part of my fitness journey! the staff were lovely and couldn’t be more helpful and the facilities are fantastic. thank you exclusive fitness!!

Fantastic experience: 10/10 would come back to train with the vanilla gorilla

Fantastic experience: Having never done weight based exercises before, I have found the trainers at Exclusive fitness are very knowledgable and able to create a programme that worked for my abilities. I have progressed further than I had originally set my goals to which is down to the way the trainers looked at all aspects, not just the session at the gym, but my diet too. The equipment is good quality and always clean.

Fantastic experience: This gym is mega. I’ve never felt more confident. I’d would recommend it for all levels. Director Tom has helped me smash my gym goals. Using his proven track record of competing at the highest level and by applying those principles to a whole range of health and fitness related targets, he was able to train me to achieve the physique I dreamt of.

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a gym to achieve your goals then this is the place to go, I have been with Leon for around 4 months now and have exceeded massively both physically and mentally thanks to him and the equipment here. The gym itself is very clean and well layed out with all the equipment you need to train and hit your targets.

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms in Canterbury! Friendly and knowledgeable staff, great atmosphere. Fantastic facilities and equipments. I am currently training with PT Leon. He's very helpful, friendly and professional. Really enjoy my sessions. Highly recommended Exclusive Fitness gym for anyone! Ana.

Fantastic experience: My health and wellbeing have been transformed since joining the gym. If you want to just turn up, do the sets tailored for you, know you are doing it correctly (no injuries after 15 months). This is the place to go. When lockdown came and the gym was closed,I really understood how much the exercise helped me. Post Covid, everything is cleaned and its great feeling fit and healthy again.

Fantastic experience: This place is brilliant! I have worked with several of the trainers here and they are all great. Howard has successfully worked through some of my post surgery health issues, and I feel better than I have in years. For high quality, goal driven personal training, this is definitely the place to go!

Fantastic experience: I thought I hated gyms and getting fit until I found Exclusive Fitness. I am fitter than I have been in years and I laugh my way through the personalised session thanks to the amazing trainers who make it fun. Totally recommend.

Fantastic experience: A great place to refocus on your fitness with input from a team that will motivate and guide you through the challenge.

Fantastic experience: Exclusive Fitness came highly recommended. Having never done gym work or much exercise before, I didn't know what to expect. What a great experience - from the initial induction with Howard through to the training sessions, the gym is excellent. Isla has taken me from zero and built up my overall strength and fitness. Each session is varied and focused on your needs and there is always a friendly relaxed atmosphere. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend (from somebody who avoided the gym for too many years!)

Fantastic experience: The team at exclusive have tailored a package that works for ME. I've never been one to stick to training for general health and wellbeing - but coming on to 2 years down the line, I'm still reaping the benefits of 2 sessions per week in their private gym with a 1 on 1 trainer to get the most out of every moment I'm there. Highly recommended - anyone thinking twice or nervous about taking that first step - don't be.- such a friendly team to get a programme together that is right for YOU!

Fantastic experience: Amazing fitness club. Bespoke fitness programme with optional sports massage and nutrition diary

Fantastic experience: BRILLIANT PRIVATE GYM - TAILORED FOR THE INDIVIDUAL. As a self conscious female re entering the fitness scene, having had several years out due to injury, I felt intimidated at the prospect of getting the lycra out. I had over the years joined two of the "well known" Canterbury based gyms, but each time it was very commercial, and an intimidating place for one lacking confidence where they are surrounded by "posers" and the super fit. As such each visit was not pleasant and actually made my lack of confidence even worse until I eventually stopped going all together. I stumbled across Exclusive fitness on Google, and revisited the webpage over the weeks, until I contacted them and spoke with Howard Foster. He made me feel very comfortable, listened to my bad experiences and my needs and invited me in for my consultation along with one of his staff Ellie. I have been training with Howard and Ellie over the past few months and cannot recommend these guys enough. The gym is small and private, with everything you need and no prying eyes, just you and the trainer - exactly what I wanted and still love. This means no waiting for equipment, feeling that you are being watched or caring what you look like. Each session is tailed for me and I am not put on cardio for the session (which I hate ) but instead given exercises that suit me and the goals that I want to achieve. Brilliant gym, wish I had found them sooner - thanks guys!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Canterbury, tailor to your every need and get you the results you want! Plus they're super friendly!
