Fantastic experience: Beautiful location, expert PTs and great coffee!
Fantastic experience: Always enjoy visiting, friendly welcome environment for gym classes and a lovely little cafe that does a cracking coconut flat white! Particular enjoy weekend morning views of the field when doing a class in the hangar on a bright day!
Fantastic experience: I feel really lucky to have The Barn near where I live. I absolutely love the classes I go to. The instructors are friendly and supportive and who gets to go to a gym on a farm!? The coffee is the best in the area too and they have great events.
Fantastic experience: Been drafting this review for a while because trying to sum up the barn in a small amount of words and to still do it justice is so tricky. I have alway felt like I am not sporty but finding the barn has changed my perception of what being sporty means. The amazing team at the barn make you feel strong - like you can do anything. It is a community of people who celebrate with you and treat you like an individual even in a full class. There is always someone to have a coffee with, someone to chat to and new things to learn. Whether you are new to exercise or a life-long pro, there is a welcoming place for you here. Thanks so much.
Thank you so much for a wonderful review. It's been great to see you go from strength to strength!
Fantastic experience: Great Friday night at the barn
Thank you for joining us. We hope you had a lovely evening.Hopefully see you in the gym or at the cafe soon.
Fantastic experience: Friday nights at the BARn. Having grown up in the West Country it was like being back home again, I loved it. More events like this please. So nice to find some space and freedom in the hustle and bustle of Greater London. A wonderful family event.
Thank you so much for such a lovely review, we're glad you had a great time. Tickets for August's Friday Nights at The BARn will go on sale in July.
Fantastic experience: Amazing space, friendly and helpful instructors. Helped me to feel strong throughout my pregnancy and postpartum. Wouldn’t want to go anywhere else!!!
Fantastic experience: Best gym around with amazing instructors, brilliant members and yummy coffee/food. Throw in some banging tunes to get your workouts moving. Can’t fault it.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant instructors, welcoming vibe, a special community, a great cafe, there's a lot to love about this place! With a wide choice of classes and events there's something for everyone.
Fantastic experience: Just the best gym! First started coming for yoga in 2021 and am now a regular in almost all of the classes — cannot get enough! Such a friendly, welcoming environment, fantastic and knowledgeable coaches, and so many lovely people that attend classes that it’s almost always a chance to catch up as well as get a workout in. I cannot recommend it highly enough — couldn’t imagine a better gym!
Thanks Kat for such a lovely review. We're glad to see you so regularly in all our classes!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, with wonderful instructors. Really love the new feature in the app where you can track your weights for each exercise so you can see your progress. Such a wonderful community feel (great coffee too!)
Fantastic experience: I can't recommend the Gym at The Barn enough. The trainers are all brilliant, knowledgable and so helpful in the classes where I bring my baby! It's a very friendly environment and the classes very well thought through. I've made some good friends there. I was particularly reassured that the trainers are pre and post natal trained, and know how to design a strong workout whatever stage you are at. And there's great coffee and snacks for afterwards :)
Fantastic experience: I joined the barn when I was pregnant and looking for somewhere to train in a safe and welcoming environment. 3 years later, the Barn is a non negotiable in my week. The trainers, classes and community are the best around.
Fantastic experience: I only came to do Pilates it escalated quickly and here I am 18 months later learning Olympic lifting and still enjoying every class. They run set programmes so you’re building towards something, at first it feels like you’re rubbish but then after a few weeks it starts to click and you feel/see your progress. I feel so lucky to have stumbled upon this gem of a gym (but it’s so much more than a gym). Each trainer is so knowledgeable and friendly, you can feel how much they enjoy working there too! Everyone is so kind and supportive of eachother, it’s a really special community. If I’m not at home, you’ll probably find me here!
Thank you for such a beautiful review Clemmie! We're so glad to have you as part of the community and it's been absolutely incredible seeing you go from strength to strength
Fantastic experience: I have never consistently gone to a gym… until I found The Barn! Moving to the area 2.5years ago I wanted to find somewhere to exercise and also meet friends. Loved when classes started to be in the Hangar even in the depths of winter - wrap up warm and you soon don’t feel it. I continued training here while pregnant - again being around likeminded women was empowering and normalised exercise in pregnancy. I was still welcome in class at 40+3 weeks pregnant! Postpartum opportunities have been amazing too, and love that my baby can join classes and get some extra cuddles from the trainers too.
Thank you for such a lovely review. Where has time gone?! We're so glad you joined our community and it's been great to see you go from strength to strength
Fantastic experience: Great pace and variety
Fantastic experience: The Barn is pure joy - working out with like-minded and super supportive women (and a few men!) who push each other all whilst looking out on the beautiful countryside is good for the soul and strength! The coffee and food trucks are also
Thanks Nicola! Glad you're enjoying the classes and we love the energy you bring too
Fantastic experience: Wow, what a gem of a gym. Every Instructor is kind, supportive and knowledgeable, the classes are upbeat, community focused and fun. You feel taken care of whatever stage of life you're in. Oh, and their coffee is delicious for a pre/post class pick me up! I'd highly recommend The Barn KT9 to anyone who is looking for a place to call their workout home. Thanks to Em and Charlie for making this such a special and unique place x
Fantastic experience: I love this gym! The MFT classes are so fun whilst hard work, it’s satisfying to see improvement with each visit. The trainers are so supportive and encouraging, Saima and Evelyn are great. Exercising undercover but outside is lovely, with a view across fields. Bonus that they do great coffee for afterwards too. I’ve only visited in winter, so looking forward to coming in the summer when the evenings are light too.
Fantastic experience: A lovely community vibe with super knowledgeable trainers, who really know their stuff around pre and postnatal fitness. They don’t wrap you in cotton wool just because you’re pregnant; you still get a great workout safe in the knowledge you’re able to work within your limits and in a sensible way for your changing body. They also totally appreciate tired mums just have tired days! Really well equipped space, beautiful interior aesthetics in a fabulous, peaceful spot. My little one loves a run around and babycinno from the café with daddy whilst I work out, and the best days we can then hang around for a pop up lunch or picnic in the sun as I recover.
Fantastic experience: I feel very lucky to live so close to The Barn KT9. Having discovered it whilst pregnant in 2020, it has since become a firm favourite and we’ve loved watching it develop into the place it is today. The gym has a great variety of classes and the trainers are all friendly and knowledgable meaning you feel safe to exercise whatever stage of your fitness journey. The gym itself is excellent, but the sense of community and onsite coffee make it more of a lifestyle which can be enjoyed by all the family. So grateful this place exists!
Thanks Annie. So glad to have you in our classes - also, where does time go?! We might be biased but we love the coffee too
Fantastic experience: Sunday Pilates @ the Barn KT9 with Caroline is the highlight of my week! How increase to see the sky when you work out. Amazing location, inspiring team of women and the best coffee and cakes to take home. So pleased you set this up!
Fantastic experience: I started classes here when pregnant and have continued them post partum. I am amazed by what a warm, friendly, supportive community this is. The classes are run by an amazing range of trainers who know what they are talking about and I look forward to every class. You know you will be training with like minded people and that you will laugh and train. They will work you hard, which is what I love most. They have total faith in your ability and support you with tweaks to your form etc to make sure you get the most out of the session. I started with a three class pack of sessions to try it out and I was hooked. On a Sunday I bring my family down to the cafe and they go for a walk while I do pilates and then we meet up to try the lunch time food van. My son is so excited to see real tractors every week.
Fantastic experience: This is such a unique and special place. All instructors are very friendly and fantastic at what they do. The classes have not only kept me sane for the last year they have really helped me build my strength to lift my twins as they get heavier and heavier. It’s really a privilege to find somewhere I can do weight based workouts and feel so comfortable doing so with some likeminded and lovely women. The class times are great as I can fit in a 6:15am class and be home to walk the dog before anyone in the house is awake! The views from the hangar are beautiful when doing yoga or traction. It’s a gym like no other and just to top it off the coffee is always amazing! I always leave here happy and feeling good. Thank you Em and the team for creating such a wonderful place to come to escape parenthood (even if it is just for an hour or so a few times a week!).
Fantastic experience: It is hard to even put into words what the Barn KT9 means to me. It fast became my second home after discovering it between lockdowns in 2020. It has seen me through two pregnancies and now my second post partum period. All the instructors are pre and post natally trained so I always felt in very safe hands! The timetable is phenomenal, and although weights based uplift will always be my fave, boost has ignited a love for cardio I never knew I had! Emily and the team have created so much more than just a gym, it's a real community and I am glad to be a part of it.
Thanks for such a lovely review Rachael
Fantastic experience: Absolutely incredible gym with knowledgeable caring coaches and an inspirational leader in Emily. It's a really close community where you know you're more than a number. For those looking they are specialised in pre and post natal training but the MFT (strongman) classes in the Hangar are incredible. There's nothing else quite like it. I also love the fact after a tough workout you can just grab a coffee, and sit and watch nature in the fields whilst you cool down.
Thanks Dave for such a great review
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Em as a PT high enough! Exercise has always been something I have struggled to stick at, but I have constantly looked forward to my sessions with Em. Whatever my mood I leave there feeling great! She is extremely knowledgable, professional and very patient! I would recommend if you’re looking for a PT in Surrey to definitely give her a try!
Thanks Sally! X
Fantastic experience: I started training with Em during my second pregnancy and wish I found her when I was pregnant with my first! Em is seriously knowledgeable on the female body and made me feel confident working out again post birth. Her sessions are tailored to me, she is engaging and encouraging and I always look forward to working out each week - best investment!
Fantastic experience: Super
Fantastic experience: I could not recommend Em highly enough ! I have been training with Em for over a year and been on a journey with her not just changing my body but my confidence and approach to exercise! I always thought I was not a ‘gym person’ and avoided most forms of fitness! However, after seeing my friend transform after working with Em - I decided to give it a go and my only regret is not having done it sooner! Em has so much knowledge about the body she was able to really tailor exercises for where I was at both physically and structurally! She is so great to talk to that I obviously just wanted to chat throughout our sessions but Em very cleverly would not let me slack off (something I’m very prone to) which I really appreciated! I feel stronger, more confident and my body has changed but genuinely I think she has given me such a gift of helping me achieve things I never thought I would do and also enjoy it at the same time! I now believe that every woman should lift weights!! Em also has such in-depth knowledge of female body and hormonal changes I always recommend my friends to go to her for any pre/post natal training too! What a star! xxx
Fantastic experience: My partner and I train together with On Point training and I can honestly say it is a real highlight of our week. Emily is professional, patient, understanding and organised. Would heartily recommend.
Fantastic experience: Emily is an amazing post natal trainer!! She really listens to what you are wanting to achieve, plans each session carefully making them varied and fun and on top of training me she keeps my baby entertained who absolutely loves her
Thanks Lorna
Fantastic experience: Em is great! She is so encouraging, positive and motivational. Sessions are fun and she always knows how to get the best out of a workout. Highly recommended.
Thanks Ben!
Fantastic experience: I have been training with Em for coming up to 2 months now and I have never felt more confident in my strength and in my body. I'm really excited to keep training with Em, see how my body changes and keep improving.
Thanks Emily!
Fantastic experience: Emily is a great PT! Emily trained me through my pregnancy - sessions were always varied to keep things interesting and most importantly she listened to exactly what I was looking for with my training. Emily is a great person to train with and kept me motivated throughout and taught me some great techniques for training outside of her sessions too. I would highly recommend Emily!
Fantastic experience: I would thoroughly recommend training with Emily - she is an excellent PT. I've been working with her for almost a year both during and post pregnancy. She is incredibly knowledgeable and I've always felt safe and confident whilst training with her, which was particularly important to me during pregnancy. I always find her sessions varied and enjoyable. Emily definitely motivates you to work hard!
Thanks Mel!
Fantastic experience: I could not rate Em more highly! Myself and my partner do couples training with her and we find not only does she push us well past what we thought we could do, but her training sessions each week are unique which keeps us enjoying our workouts. She is such an energetic and fun PT, highly recommended!!
Fantastic experience: Em is great. She knows how to mix up sessions and when to push me and when to stop and breathe. I am fitter, stronger and generally happier since working with her. Us my posture has changed dramatically for the better. I started off with a session a week and felt so much better that I upped it to two. The sessions give me more energy for the rest of my world, so it us such a valuable investmemt. Plus my five year old loves I can now carry him on my shoulders! (something never possible before working with Em)
Fantastic experience: I have gained so much from my sessions with Emily - not only do I feel stronger and fitter than ever before, she has also given me the confidence and knowledge to create my own workouts at the gym. Each session with Em will be different but she always makes sure it's aligned to your goals. I can't recommend Em highly enough - if you're looking for a personal trainer in London then she is the woman you're looking for!
