Foundry Gym - Vauxhall

Fantastic experience: Really great place to do a workout. PTs extremely friendly and the session I did on build was challenging using the AMRAP style which was extremely useful

Positive experience: No one is there to ask questions

Fantastic experience: Great training approach, programming and really good trainers

Fantastic experience: A gem of a gym, perfect for all fitness levels.

Fantastic experience: The best investment I’ve ever made. Since joining, I’ve learned the fundamentals of strength training with proper form and have transformed my body and health as a result. All the trainers (Dan, Shirley, Ben, Scott) are real experts who adapt programmes for individuals and are super friendly and approachable to boot. Awesome crew, awesome gym, awesome results.

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend more highly. I was completely new to any kind of strength training last year but under the care of a brilliant group of trainers I now feel fitter and stronger than I ever have. The trainers are what makes it so special. Ben, Shirley, Dan, Scott and Danny are so knowledgable, committed, fun, motivating and professional. They genuinely care about their members. They effortlessly manage groups consisting of complete novices to hardened pros, ensuring everyone gets their attention, support and motivation. The classes are always varied and challenging and the small group personal training really allows you to go further and further in your progression under the expert eyes of a trainer who is able to adjust and personalise the routines to support your goals. At the start I would pick up small injuries and they would patiently help me work around them whilst I worked on my flexibility and form. They’ve helped me overcome these hurdles to the point where I can now achieve things in a class I would never have thought possible. It’s made a materiel mental and physical improvement to my life and that of my partner. Worth every single penny and more.

Fantastic experience: Best gym ever!!! Coaches are so knowledgeable and friendly. Its very welcoming and has some really fun pieces of kit to use!!

Fantastic experience: I train at the Foundry in Vauxhall and rate the trainers highly. They are technical, fun, focused and very professional! I’m getting better and stronger with every session. For anyone who is serious about their health and fitness goals, check the Vauxhall Foundry team out. You won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: LOVE going to the Foundry for my workouts. The team at Vauxhall are so welcoming, knowledgable and supportive. The workouts are as hardcore as you choose to make them, but I always leave feeling glad I went!

Fantastic experience: I have recently become a member at The Foundry and have never been to a gym where I feel so welcomed and supported. I am a naturally nervous gym goer but all my classes and SPT sessions feel so inclusive and I can already feel improvements in my strength. It’s a place that helps the body and the mind and I really value being able to go after a busy day at work.

Fantastic experience: Epic scenes this morning, wasn’t sure if I’d survive but I have and will definitely return. The gym is a PT’s dream and the facilities and staff are ace!

Fantastic experience: Love this place

Fantastic experience: This place is an amazing community focused fitness studio. If you want results, these guys will push your fitness ti the next level and beyond. Unpretentious and inclusive to all

Fantastic experience: Loved the Sweat class here! Saima is great and was all over everyone making sure we were doing the right move/technique etc and gives so much energy. Can’t wait for the next one ☺️

Fantastic experience: As a person who is very new to fitness and working out, The Foundry has been a place where I felt encouraged and supported, which made me confident enough to keep training, and form a new lifestyle. I would recommend the 21 day challenge to anyone who doesn't know where to start with fitness and wants to join a real community :)

Fantastic experience: The Foundry is always a five star experience! A supportive environment where the trainers are inclusive and welcoming. It's not a gym - it's a community. An absolute tonic for my body, mind and soul after such a difficult lockdown.

Fantastic experience: The atmosphere, team, and programmes are simply fantastic, pushing you to better yourself day in, day out! I've been training for 2 months and I genuinely feel awesome. I wouldn't have made 20% of the progress and been far fewer times without the accountability that comes with the programmes. I would recommend The Foundry to everyone and anyone :)

Fantastic experience: I went to the PB day at the Foundry Vauxhall. In this event gym members would attempt their best scores in certain lifts, body-weight and cardio based challenges. The atmosphere was great and all members were very supportive. The event was very well organized, including great food, safe spotting from coaches and great music. I had not visited this location before (but other Foundry locations), it is a really cool gym. Looking forward to my next visit!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, good equipment, class and instructor experienced

Fantastic experience: Good energy from the instructor, great exercise choice and liked the facilities on offer

Fantastic experience: Just did the community session boxing. My arms hurt so bad. Would recommend.

Fantastic experience: .Loving The Foundry! On the 21 Day Challenge and so glad I signed up. Fun sessions , fab friendly instructors. Definitely recommended .

Fantastic experience: Thank you Foundry! Great class with Alex R felt super aafe and super strong! would not have expected anything less from the team but you have pulled out all the stops to make sure we all feel safe and get the gains!!! #WTSB

Fantastic experience: Great Sunday workout. Every class is different and every class is challenging. The best fitness community in London by a mile (or 20m bear crawl). Everyone is welcome, expect an equal ops beasting by some of the best trainers in the biz.

Fantastic experience: You are an awesome gym! Unique in many ways! From space, equipment down to coaches and coaching! You follow a knowledge and science based approach in your training trying to stay away from industry fads. You make your clients stronger, fitter and healthier! You have shown resilience in world crisis situations (COVID-19). You are all inclusive and embracing diversity and willing to modify your approach to tailor your members' needs wisely. Above all you are FUN!

Fantastic experience: I've had my first two SPT sessions after starting the 21 day challenge and it has got me really excited for my journey with the Foundry. The coaching is spot on, friendly staff and client. There's a positive, "work hard" environment but also fun. Can't wait to get back in there!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely LOVE this place, so much so that every day this week - since it reopened - I have been hanging out outside like a creeper until I’m allowed inside 10 minutes before class! They’ve got the safety measures on check and disinfectant on tap. I’ve been to 1000s of classes across London in the last decade but for me The Foundry is probably the best. The classes are killer but fun and over before you know it! The results also speak for themselves, it’s only been a couple of days but my clothes are fitting better already! All the coaches are great, just love it all really! This sounds like a sponsored ad, it’s not, I’m just so happy to be back!

Fantastic experience: Really good workouts and super helpful trainers

Fantastic experience: An amazing gym with some excellent instructors.

Fantastic experience: Great

Fantastic experience: Nice gym!!

Fantastic experience: Great workout!

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms in London. And a really good team culture

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym, but so much more. Excellent team and community spirit. My work capacity has increased exponentially since training here.

Fantastic experience: I have been coming to the foundry for two years now and can’t stress enough how much I love it ! The team, Dan Pearse, Gus McKay, Zane Irvin and Ben Gotting are just amazing and the classes very diverse and challenging ! Couldn’t recommend it enough

Fantastic experience: 45mins always flashes past! Always a great workout & motivational coaches that help you to get the best results, couldn’t recommend the Foundry enough.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to The Foundry Vauxhall for almost three years and it’s the best gym I’ve ever been to. Fantastic classes and the trainers are all great.

Fantastic experience: The only gym I ever managed to attend regularly, like nowhere else. You arrive excited to see what younwill be doing over the next 45 minutes and while there you can think of nothing else. It doesn’t feel like ‘exercise’ in the conventional sense but the results suggest it must be. Could not recommend more highly.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, amazing instructors and real sense of family amongst instructors and members alike. Thoroughly recommend for all from beginners to elite athletes!

Fantastic experience: There are fitness classes and then there is Strongman. Fitness classes make you lift dumbells, Strongman makes you lift atlas stone. Fitness classes make you run on treadmills, Strongman has you pull your friend on a sled. Strongman has you lifting heavy and pushing hard, but is also positive and fun.

Fantastic experience: The 'best gym in the world' tagline is not wrong! Incredible kit, motivating trainers and expertly programmed classes. Don't be intimidated, the big weights and kit may seem scary when starting out but everything can be scaled and I guarantee you will be pushing to progress in no time, regardless of your age, gender or fitness level :)

Fantastic experience: This gym has that magic combo of great space, huge variety of equipment, original + fun concept, incredibly knowledgeable coaches, fab atmosphere and just the most amazing, friendly sense of community you could ever hope for. Cannot recommend enough :oD

Fantastic experience: My home away from home. My temple, my bedrock.<3 AH BLOODY LOVE YA, FOUNDRY FAM <3 Seriously, if you're looking for a community, a change in scenery (none of that commercial gym fake vibe here), fantastic coaches, top programming, new skillz and mad friendships, this is your place. City Strongman classes are considered some of the hardest in the London but don't let that put you off. Everything is scalable, the coaches will never bully or push you and your safety is always paramount. Try Sweat classes for a serious cardio-based sesh. Go to Combine for a brilliant mixture of the two (with a team-based competitive element... be prepared!). Check out Lift for a super chilled, heavy-weight based skill class with a much quieter vibe. I tell EVERYONE about The Foundry. And after joining us... you will too!

Fantastic experience: My favourite gym in London. The classes are awesome (try a strongman class if you've never been before - flipping tyres and lugging heavy cement balls and sandbags around is surprisingly good fun, it turns out) and the music is great. The team are the most genuine, friendly bunch too, which really makes such a difference. Can't imagine going anywhere else now!

Fantastic experience: Just the best damn gym you could imagine. No frills, all thrills, many big, heavy things and happy, sweaty people. Think Atlas stones, logs, sleds, truck tires and the Torque Tank (pictured). I would highly recommend dropping in for a City Strongman class and pushing yourself for a session! Brilliant staff help to build a sense of community for members too. Much love.

Fantastic experience: An excellent facility offering an interesting and original range of challenging exercises classes and PT packages in a friendly environment staffed by helpful and professional trainers. The training content is far more enjoyable than plodding away in an average gym. Strongly recommend giving it a try.

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms I've been to in London. The classes are some of the hardest but most rewarding I've done. There's normally some sort of team work or competition in the workouts which means you push that extra bit harder and also makes it a lot of fun. The coaches are amazing too, really knowledgable and super friendly :)

Fantastic experience: Dedicated and very skilled coaches. Fun workouts, fabulous equipment and great team dynamic. It neve ceases to amaze me how much their coaches know about you from day one. Not only they all know your name but very quickly they learn about your goals, or what areas need improvements as well as your strengths. They are knowledgeable and truly passionate about what they do. I’ve been a member for the past 2 years and I don’t even considering going anywhere else. definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a challenging and empowering workout :)

Fantastic experience: Great facility, experienced instructors and a good selection of activities.

Fantastic experience: Saturday Strongman is the highlight of my weekend! It's the best group training I've ever done!

Fantastic experience: Great class for building strength but one of the funnest I've ever done. Ben & Ali were spot on and helped me through my first Strongman!

Fantastic experience: Phenomenal team and spirit in this place - expect to leave feeling bulletproof. I think it's a great place to develop overall power - you'll be pushing your heart rate and strength which just allow you tackle more: going back to your park boot camp feels like a cop out :) Wish I could've stuck around longer!

Fantastic experience: Whenever I visit my friend down in London, without fail, I always make sure I'm booked onto the City Strongman class at The Foundry. Every time I've visited it's been a completely different circuit that challenges my body to the max. I absolutely love it and The Foundry is genuinely one of the best gyms I've ever visited!

Fantastic experience: Awesome facility and environment for training. The staff are great and there’s a range of semi-private and group training for all levels and ages. Definitely recommended if you want to improve your health and fitness and the way you look.

Fantastic experience: BEST GYM I HAVE EVER VISITED!!! I am a fitness enthusiast, I have visited many gyms in UK and around the world. The foundry - Vauxhall really is the best gym I have ever been to. I regularly attend a mixture of all the classes, all classes are equally good as each other in different ways. The instructors are all top class, very knowledgable, very technical, very friendly, extremely motivated, and offer bundles of positive energy. Each class is different every time you attend. They have lots of amazing apparatus to use during each class. The facilities are very clean and welcoming. The foundry readily invites people of all fitness levels and caters for their requirements. They have a fabulous training ethos amongst both the staff and the clients.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in London. Class trainers, friendly atmosphere and great members. Worth every penny, whatever your goal.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in London. FACT! Friendly, fun and challenging (no matter what your fitness level!). The Foundry team are amazing!!

Fantastic experience: After reading all about City Strongman, I signed up to the Monday 10am slot with Ali. Probably the most fun and challenging class I've experienced as it involved moves I've never done before, however Ali was brilliant at explaining how to perform each move and was incredibly motivating as we got a little tired! Definitely going back for rounds 2, 3 4, 5...

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym I've attended. Highly recommended. Brilliant highly trained staff with a keen eye for detail & dedicated to their clients. Addictive, and ruthless hard work too. When I arrived for my first session I knew i was in the hands of experts. Dave Thomas is a wonderful PT. Well done everyone involved, & thanks.

Fantastic experience: I can't rate this place high enough! All the Trainers/founders come from a high level of competitive sport. Their classes are different to anything else offered in london that I have been to, due to them being top coaches and this being a Fantasticly kitted facility. However classes aren't just for experienced lifters/gym goers they make exercise regressions/progressions for all abilities. It doesn't stop with the coaches. The members here contribute to the classs being so great. There is a mix of friendly competitiveness/encouragement that I haven't really experienced at any other gym. I just hope they expand to the city!

Fantastic experience: Liane and I have been working with Graeme at The Foundry for just over a year now. My wife was looking for an experienced trainer with higher qualifications and experience than the usual high street gym chain PT's. Someone serious about training who could take her to the next level. As an avid 10km runner, looking after my own fitness, I only went to escort my wife to her induction but was so impressed with Graeme that I also signed up for one session per week. Graeme has improved my overall fitness, my muscle tone and shape. My stats from April to December show Bodyfat: Start: 13.7% Now: 11% Lean Mass:Start: 64.8kg Now: 68.1kg a reduction of 2.7% Body fat and increase of 3.3kg of lean mass. The Foundry is a great place to train, everyone there is really friendly, they know you by name and they care for your well being. I can't recommend them highly enough.
