Unity Fitness: Opinions
Positive experience: What I love about this place is that it is so welcoming and not intimidating. The staff know you by name and it is the gym equivalent of 'Cheers'. It is class based with great timings during the week. The weekend class schedule is getting better with more classes. It is not cheap but you get what you pay for and it motivates you to attend.
Fantastic experience: Unity Fitness is a super friendly and welcoming community. I have been a member almost 1-year and it has been transformational for my health and wellbeing! The coaching team are among the best in the business, in my opinion, highly knowledgable and always on hand to help. I can’t recommend Unity enough to anyone looking to join a fitness community that is both fun and supportive ⭐️
Fantastic experience: Tried SO many gyms and PTs over last 20 year and hated and left them all - Unity's different method and genuinely friendly feel is first one I've stuck to and seeing real changes. If you hate the gym but need to do something to change your health...I cannot say it enough: Try Unity!
Thanks so much for this Libby! We’re so glad you’re enjoying Unity and have seen such progress!
Fantastic experience: I really enjoy Unity as its a place where I can push myself and get some coaching to help my progression. The coaches are so encouraging and friendly.
Fantastic experience: Wonderful. Inclusive, great sense of community and effective!
Fantastic experience: This is a gym where you will be made to feel welcome as soon as you walk through those doors, just as you are. The team of professional coaches will encourage you gently to achieve your personal goals and reach a level of physical and mental health that will reward you greatly. I love the community atmosphere and the high quality coaching.
Fantastic experience: I started going to Unity gym June 2022 as I decided I needed to do something about my weight to improve my health. What I didn’t expect was the benefit to my mental health and the friendships made. Everyone is supportive of each other without judgement. The various coaches change routines regularly so never feels stale. They are always prepared to offer advice and will advise of alternatives if there is an exercise you struggle with. I have lost over 4 stone, learned to love strength training and do not have to wonder what I will be doing when I wander into the gym. 100% recommend and only wish I had done this sooner.
Fantastic experience: Am delighted to be a member of the "100 Club" at my favourite gym! There are closer gyms, but this is a fabulous place as it combines great classes with a really happy and enthusiastic vibe. And that's before you look at the amazing outcomes the team deliver. Fitter, stronger, happier.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym with a mix of coached strength and fitness sessions. All the coaches are amazing, so encouraging and friendly. You get what you pay for.
Thank you so much Linda!
Fantastic experience: Great variety of coaches, dedicated management and amazing fellow members.
Thanks Sara- you're a fabulous member !
Fantastic experience: Wow!!!!! Unity is truly the friendliest, most welcoming and best community gym in Kent. The sense of community here is truly unrivalled. Luke and his team do an insane job of being supportive, motivating and encouraging as well as making training fun! Do not hesitate to get in touch
Fantastic experience: I’ve just completed the 6 week challenge. I would urge you all to join unity! Such a friendly place where everyone talks to you and welcomes you. The coaches are fab and support and push you to the max. I’ve found joining unity not only good for my fitness but good for my mental health. I’m so happy I found unity, thank you!
Thanks so much for the review Annika! You’re doing awesomely so far! Keep it up
Fantastic experience: So happy to have met Steph. Steph is so encouraging and genuinely seems interested in how I am getting on. I feel so well-supported by her. Her sessions taught me so many new things about nutrition and ways to protect my body (my back especially). Feels like I have got my life back again after the years of wilderness. Steph talks 'real' talk which I really like. I know I will carry on learning with Steph. Plus she is really beautiful to look at. Massive inspiration.
Fantastic experience: Amazing space, very clean, open, post-COVID ready, staff are great, wonderful space, best gym in Canterbury... Luke + team have done a great job
Fantastic experience: Have been thinking since last year to dot down my views....couldnt stop from writing today.... . Started from 6 week challenge last year as a typical house wife.... Didn't think about going long with the fitness. But now I have realised fitness has become an addiction for me with UNITY... No more words to thank all the wonderful coaches for motivating and dragging me to be fit... Hats off to you all... And also very special thanks to Rita Young for introducing me to such a great team... Can't imagine my life without coming to Unity now....
Fantastic experience: WOW, where do I start...UNITY FITNESS is AMAZING. I've been a member of many gyms but none that have ever given me the support and determination these guys have. The personal trainers are all amazing. Never have I had nutritional experience that these guys have helped give me. Nothing is ever to much, no question is ever unanswered, help is always given where needed. I started here on the 6 week challenge just after the 1st lockdown in 2020 (and boy did i need to). In this 6 weeks I lost just over a stone in weight, and could see some definition starting to appear. I CAN NOT RECOMMEND UNITY FITNESS ENOUGH. Needless to say after the 6 weeks I jumped on board and became a UNITY member and have never looked back. They keep members motivated with the passion to succeed. Now in lockdown 2.0 and im not going back to where I was in lockdown 1, I'm on the coached zoom calls daily, and still get to see everyone which is (along with the workout) a highlight. I can't wait to be back face to face. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT AND CONTINUED DEDICATION TO YOUR MEMBERS.
Fantastic experience: UNITY by name.....UNITY by nature....not much else to say other than this gym has inspired me to get fit again after a VERY long time away from it!!! Didn't really want to share tbh as wanted to keep the community spirit to myself....shhhhh. Thanks for supporting me on my fitness journey. Now feel part of a very special group ❤❤
Fantastic experience: This gym and community got me from no exercise to regular workouts I love. Coaches create a fun atmosphere and it’s great that there are people at every stage of fitness journeys at the gym - all encouraging each other. If you are thinking about maybe trying to improve your fitness, I’d say come along, try it.
Fantastic experience: Been part of the 6 week challenge, and hit my target weight losses each weigh in. Classes are great, good encouragement from the coaches with detailed explanations of each exercise. I signed up to rebuild muscle after a sports injury and I can definitely feel improvement and more flexibility in my leg.
Fantastic experience: I joined Unity Fitness for something different to help me get fit and lose weight. I started the 6 week challenge and am hooked! I have already signed up to continue after my 6 week challenge ends and my 3 weeks results have completely exceeded my expectations. Not only do I want to do exercise but my diet and thoughts around what to eat have completely changed. It’s not just a gym, not just a membership it’s the whole package! Helpful and supportive trainers who guide through all classes, accountability to keep you on the right track with food and the videos with great advice along the way. To say I’m happy is an understatement I’m just gutted I didn’t start sooner! If I can do it anyone can and I highly recommend joining.
Fantastic experience: Unity fitness has helped me in many ways since I started the 6 week challenge. I have NEVER stuck to single eating plan or exercise untill now ! I personally never thought I would enjoy working out but unity makes it different, it's a community, there is always a coach to talk to if you need to there is accountability and it's actually fun (hard work) but fun. I have now joined for the next year and I'm extremely excited to see what I can achieve!
Fantastic experience: I was persuaded to join Unity by a friend and I'm so glad she did. It's a great way of having a gym membership. It's all based on classes which are challenging but great fun and a new way of keeping fit for me. We often work in pairs and challenge each other to do more. All the coaches are great and everyone is very friendly. You're not just a member here but part of the Unity family. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: I joined Unity a few months ago and it has been such a life changer! I have never lasted very long in other gyms because of the lack of guidance and support. With unity, the coaches have meetings with you and check that you are reaching your goals. They push you and look after you so that you can be get to where you want to be and they actually really care about every single member. The fitness and strength sessions are always different and fun, plus I always leave feeling like I’ve challenged myself.
Fantastic experience: I have been at Unity Gym now for 2 years, my 2 daughters also attend the teen sessions and love them. I have been a member of numerous gyms over the years and none have given me the results I have achieved at Unity. Unity is a family and community who support each other in achieving their goals. All the instructors are very friendly, helpful, encouraging and also make the whole place like one big family/community. I can not recommend Unity Gym highly enough and for anyone who is looking for a change in lifestyle, health and fitness, this is the place.
Fantastic experience: I joined Unity in September for the 6 week challenge 4 months post giving birth. They've been so supportive and motivational, I've lost the baby weight and more and I'm completely hooked! All of the coaches are so warm and welcoming and happy to talk to you at any point about your worries, and this is the same with all the members too! I've never enjoyed exercising before and now I definitely do!
Fantastic experience: This place is amazing ,my experience with the team unity fitness was great.i have had a life changing experience here,I am sure anyone who tries out here will 100% have similar experience .They have the amazing coaching crew ,the online portal fitness is out of the world special mention on their nutrition book was very helpful to understand diet and exercise with a different perspective.i can assure you all that you will surely benefit from this gym .
Fantastic experience: Can’t believe I’ve been with this gym for almost two years. I thought I was too old to exercise at this level but Luke and the team have taught me otherwise. I’m still getting stronger and fitter. My aim is to keep coming until I’m 70!
Fantastic experience: A truly special place, this gym has such a different feel to the mainstream gym! All the members are terrific and are helping to create something truly unique!
Fantastic experience: Really friendly supportive place that is more than just a gym. Lots of classes through out the day, including early mornings for people who need to get to work.
Fantastic experience: We have been on a journey improving our fitness, stamina and total well being. We are so fortunate to have this facility with consistent trainers and facilities.
Fantastic experience: A very friendly and welcoming gym, brilliant staff that are always on hand to help and support you.
Fantastic experience: A great community of members all working toward their individual fitness goals together- and having fun while doing so.
Fantastic experience: Love, Love, Love this gym! The coaches, classes and members. Couldn't be without it now.
Fantastic experience: Sharing a smile and a laugh with friends, is more than a workout. A gym that energises and gives you strength for the day and week ahead. Unity Fitness support is a two-way street, you really have to try it to appreciate the complete experience.
Fantastic experience: If you need to get your health on track, back on track or like the idea of meeting new people and getting fit and healthy just comes along with it then, unity fitness is perfect for you. Be your own biggest rival. No pressure to perform, unless you want it. Recommend for all fitness levels and those interested in discovering there level.
Fantastic experience: Unlike any other gym..its a 'community' with a great bunch of members and very enthusiastic, motivating and supportive trainers. Fantastic new purpose built venue plus varied sessions and regular challenges to keep you on your toes! Madeline
Fantastic experience: changed my life , it is as important to me as drinking water ! You can’t really Live properly with out it , it is nothing like a gym . For all the depressed / ill people out there this is the Awsner you have been looking for all you have to do is try a taster session and those are free so nothing to loose and everything to gain . Look forward to seeing you there
Fantastic experience: Just started week 2 of my six week challenge and I wish I found this earlier !!the training is excellent the staff are all very professional and encouraging the environment and training participants are all so friendly and encouraging 100% recommend with this type of fitness you feel amazing and can’t wait for the next session I will defiantly get a membership after the 6 weeks are up thanks team you have a great way of getting the best from your members making the work out hard but fun and always feel great after keep up the good work and I hope you get many more members roll on next session
Fantastic experience: Have just completed 6 week challenge and lost 15 lbs and have signed up for a year.This is not a run of the mill gym,no one judges you, or shouts at you ,there are all shapes,sizes and ages. There are no mirrors! Yay and no one cares what they look like. The classes are unique,small, and fun with great understanding coaches.Each class is varied which keeps you coming back for more.... Give it a go you won’t be disappointed what is there to loose? ..... Just the weight !
Fantastic experience: This a such a fantastic concept! A gym like no other I’ve ever been to. A truly collaborative way of working hard alongside others who are just as committed to achieving their individual goals. I haven’t really exercised in many years but this is the start of something new for me, a transformation from flabby and fatigued to hopefully fit and fabulous! Don’t hesitate, come and join us , I guarantee you won’t regret it .
Fantastic experience: Luke and his wonderful team changed my whole lifestyle and approach to fitness. I love coming here - seriously addictive! The classes are varied and fun whilst the coaches are knowledgeable and helpful. Everyone is very friendly and inclusive. If you want to try something new and begin your fitness journey then this is the place to do it!
Fantastic experience: Love Unity Gym. Great atmosphere with trainer supported classes. It's difficult to explain how unique it is. No mirrors, no posers, just a bunch of ordinary people working together to become their best selves. It's great fun and very addictive.
Fantastic experience: I’m just coming to the end of my 6 week challenge and have already signed up for yearly membership. I love that every class is different, every coach is committed to help me improve and every member are wonderfully supportive and encouraging. Give it a try; it will improve your weight, health and mind.
Fantastic experience: Excellent facilities and more important excellent support when ever you want it. Like most exercise regimes and diets you tend to give up after a couple of weeks but here it’s done in such a way that you can make it happen. You choose when you can exercise to fit in with work and home commitments there are loads of sessions available and by making small gradual changes to your diet it becomes the norm and not a chore eating boring food as in normal diets as guidance and ideas including recipes are far from boring . Above all you feel great and more positive about yourself. I would definitely recommend giving it ago if you want to see long term results.
Fantastic experience: I've just finished the 6 week fitness challenge and I’ve loved it so much that I signed up for the year's membership! The ‘gym’ (it’s not like any other gym I’ve been to) is brand new and staff organise different activities/schedules every session- you would never get bored! I work full time and have two young children so was worried how I could fit it all in, but I haven’t had any problem, and have always wanted to go. I lost 15lbs on the 6 week programme, and am getting stronger every week, but the best thing is the feeling of being active that makes me feel confident in my body again. I would recommend to anyone looking for a challenge and lifestyle kick!
Fantastic experience: Unity fitness has been great in getting me back into fitness. Scared to start initially the coaches/instructors as well as other members put me at ease and helped me adapt anything I couldn't do so the training really is accessible whatever your starting point. Thanks unity fitness and all the members for creating such a friendly and supportive atmosphere it Cert ainly works I've list weight, inches and gained fitness and friends in doing it. Thanks
Fantastic experience: Beware: This gym is no ordinary gym! The coach-led sessions are varied, challenging and so much fun. There is such a friendly, community feel to this gym and the experienced coaches are 100% committed to individual members goals, personal development and progress. I can not recommend this place enough! I can truly say that Unity Fitness has revolutionised my life!
Fantastic experience: Hi, Just like to say thank you to Luke and the gang at Unity Fitness in helping me to re-start my fitness journey. It is still work in progress but after only 6 weeks I have lost over 6% body fat and just under a stone in weight. Its not only about dress sizes and weight loss but the body confidence and positive attitude that it gives you. It is a great place to be and everyone is friendly, helpful and positive. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: I love Unity Fitness - I've been going to Luke's gym for 5 years and it is NEVER boring! I have met so many new people because it is a real community. Forget other gyms that you have been to - try this one. It will change the way that you view exercise for life.......
Fantastic experience: Been a member for over a year and in that time UF has helped me lose 15kg and become stronger and fitter. The coaches encourage, the classes are fun, you want to go and it is not a "chore" to work out. Fellow members are great, there are no peacocks! It is a unique community and if you really want to make a change, then I shall offer you two words of advice... Unity Fitness! *****
Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant experience over the last 6 weeks. This isn’t a place filled with machines and mirrors where people go to do their own thing. This is a place filled with like minded people who want to achieve and awesome coaches who want you to achieve. I’ve made friends, expanded my knowledge, lost weight and gained fitness and strength. I even get out of bed at 6 (sometimes earlier!) to take part in a class and am very happy about it. Great community spirit from a great gym!
Fantastic experience: I was lucky to discover Luke and his team after I had my kids and enjoyed every minute of my training, as challenging as it was!! Then I did the 6 week challenge and it was absolutely brilliant! I lost a stone in 6 weeks as well as hit my target with fat loss. I would definitely recommend to friends. Happy to also say I've made some lovely friends along the way and been witness to many members amazing achievements.
Fantastic experience: I found this gym from a recommendation from a local facebook page when looking for a personal trainer and have not looked back. I joined for the 6 week challenge and I am staying now I have completed this. Beware, this is not a gym. If you want to jog on a running machine with your headphones on staring at a wall then you are at the wrong place. If you are looking for guided sessions that focus on actually improving your health and fitness with a great community spirit then you have 110% found the right place. This is a great fun way of both getting fitter and doing that with groups of like minded individuals who encourage each other. Try a taster, you will not look back!
Fantastic experience: It’s taken 25 years for me to make good on my new year resolution to start going to the gym again, but as we near the end of February I’m delighted that Unity Fitness have suceeded where a quarter of a century’s worth of other gyms have failed. HOW? Brilliant, caring and very very patient coaches who know your name, and goals, work to ensure you can get the best out of each session. Directed, varied group sessions - no two are the same - make going to the gym an enjoyable, stimulating experience, as does the supportive, community atmosphere and the camaraderie of other members. Don’t wait 25 years...give it a try..
Fantastic experience: If you haven't tried it, I implore you to go along and see what Unity Fitness is all about! 1st class facilities and different to your typical gym – get fit, socialise whilst under the guidance of amazing, generous and gifted coaches. They understand what you are striving for and they WILL get you there and further, while having fun. The classes allow you to work to your level and you will love the diverse workout combinations. Early days for me, I’m halfway through a 6-week challenge, but I think this will be just the beginning. Hope to see you there!
Fantastic experience: A genius concept, Unity Fitness is really special. Having been a member of other gyms in the past, I had no motivation to go and didn’t feel comfortable or encouraged once there. So here I am at Unity, just completed my six week challenge and now a member. Each session is different, challenging and rewarding led by superb coaches. What could be better than having your own PT in a a group environment, it absolutely works. The facilities are top notch in Unity’s brand new venue. The members are so friendly, encouraging and inspiring, it’s fun working together. There is also endless helpful online advice including nutrition. There’s a members website, seminars to attend and social events. I highly recommend Unity Fitness and can’t wait to continue my health and fitness journey here.
Fantastic experience: Unity Fitness is a gym like no other. In the last year thanks to Luke and the team I have lost about s stone and a half, got fitter, stronger and more motivated. The members are friendly and supportive - we’re all on the same journey. I’ve never chatted and laughed with people at the gym this way before. If you think that you have let yourself go. If you think you really should do something about your health. If you think that you’re on a slippery slope. Stop thinking and get to Unity Fitness. You absolutely won’t regret it
Fantastic experience: So what can I say.. I joined as a 6 week challenge member in September 2018. This place has truly put my fitness well and truly back on the map. It is not a conventional gym so if you want lots of machines where you are left to put in mediocre effort then this will not be for you. If you would like 110% support from great trainers and other members then I would urge you to join. I have lost over 2 stone in the last year and I am fitter and happier than I have ever been. I have made some friends for life and they have even turned me into a runner something I never thought was possible! If you want a gym and fitness regime that will truly change your life join Unity 6 week challenge and push yourself to be the best version of yourself in that time and I promise you you will never look back!
Fantastic experience: If you are thinking about joining the 6 week challenge, stop thinking and just do it! It is honestly the best and most motivating form of fitness training I have ever done. I usually join a gym, go for a few sessions (feeling really self-conscious next to all the gym bunnies and muscle men) and then just lapse into an occasional visit. This is a friendly, relaxed atmosphere with professional coaches who all make an effort to know your name and make you welcome. Just try it, you won’t regret it.
Fantastic experience: Not to sound dramatic but this gym has really changed my life. As well as losing nearly two stone, I have become stronger, fitter and more confident since becoming a member a year ago. I love everything about it - the instructors, the ethos and community feel as well as the style of classes, I’ve also made some good friends along the way. This gym has helped me to enjoy exercise and make it part of my life, I would thoroughly recommend it.
