Fantastic experience: I recently completed the 30 day trial with Base 13 and have really enjoyed the experience. The gym is a really welcoming space and the quality of training is very high. The small group training sessions allow for plenty of input regarding proper technique, which is really reassuring when you are new to strength training. The coaches are really friendly and happy to make modifications depending on fitness level, injuries etc. They also offer classes at many different times throughout the day which has made it easy for me to fit it into my schedule. I'm looking forward to continuing sessions with Base 13 and highly recommend them to anyone considering signing up.

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about this gym! It’s not just a place to work out – it’s an incredibly inclusive space where I feel 100% comfortable every time I walk in. The coaches are outstanding; they truly go the extra mile to listen to my needs. For example, if i need to modify exercises due to an injury. The level of support and care from them is something you don't find everywhere. Plus, the community is amazing – everyone is so welcoming, and it makes working out something I genuinely look forward to. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a supportive and positive fitness environment!

Fawz Farhan 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member since the start when it was just bootcamp in the park. I can’t believe I’ve been hooked ever since and actually enjoy and look forward to my classes. It’s a welcoming, nurturing and social gym so you feel you can get as little or as much as you want from it. I feel stronger and fitter than I have ever done and I can’t see myself ever stopping. Thanks Henry and his amazing team.

Tom Meehan 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: If you want to feel happy join Base13 . I will often walk in thinking “why”. During some tough sessions I might also think “why”. But afterwards I always walk out happy. The coaches push you enough to achieve what is important to you. The other members encourage you to achieve what is important to you. What ever your goals are they are supported and encouraged. It has truly made such a positive impact on my life and I am so much happier due to being a member.

Jessica Butler 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I joined Base 13 nearly a month ago now and it’s been great. Classes are varied with knowledgeable coaches who help you to push yourself whilst keeping it fun. There’s a real mix of people amongst the members and it never feels intimidating. I’ve enjoyed it so much and actually genuinely look forward to the sessions-and this is coming from someone who has been a ‘gym person’!

Olena Naboka 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Base 13 for 4 months, and I'm thoroughly impressed with the experience. Initially, I planned to go just once a week due to my limited free time, but after the first week, I noticed so many benefits that I now go three times a week. The equipment is top-notch and well-maintained, with a wide variety of options for all types of workouts, from cardio to strength training. I like to mix up my routine with small-group personal training ( up to 4 people) and Build/Blast sessions (up to 8 people), which have helped me feel stronger and more energised. I attend Balance sessions to relax and stretch my muscles, which are a perfect way to unwind. Plus, booking classes are super easy through their app, so I can always choose what I feel like doing on a given day. What really stands out are the highly qualified coaches and the supportive community. There are plenty of activities, challenges, nutrition guidance, and regular body scans to track progress and celebrate milestones. Even small gestures, like coaches remembering your name from day one or receiving a birthday gift, make you feel like you're part of something bigger—a new, healthier lifestyle.

Alex D 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: If you are having any doubts at all about joining a gym, then take my example - I’m an out-of-shape guy in his 40’s who has never previously been to a gym, and I’ve had an absolute blast since joining. Both the trainers and the members are incredibly welcoming of newbies, and the trainers really know their stuff to guide you in. The Base 13 group has a real community vibe. Sign up to the month trial and see for yourself!

Thanks for the kind words Alex, it's been great having you as a part of the community and looking forward to building on the progress we've already seen in the first 30 days!

lisa martin 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: I joined Base 13 at the start of this year and love love love it! The coaching team are fantastic - supportive, encouraging and push you to achieve your goals. I find the mix of SGPT and classes nicely varied, as the programming is very well thought through. The timetable is pretty extensive and the equipment is excellent quality. I cant forget to mention the community that Henry and his team have built, with really friendly and welcoming members! There are regular opportunities to socialise, whether it is a ‘fun’ social or fitness competition. There’s definitely something for everyone, every level of fitness and every interest! If you are looking for a gym in Lewisham, Hither Green, Blackheath, Lee area, it has to be Base 13. When i joined, i was simply looking for a gym near me and the offer of small group training. It has ticked both those boxes and so much more. Thanks Henry and co!

Paul Quinn 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: Friendly, professional, attentive and completely non- judgemental - exactly what you need for someone like me, dropping back into fitness after many years away. The trial period a great way to get your bearings and ease yourself in. And the other members are always welcoming and supportive. Highly recommended.

Jill Loughran 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: I joined Base13 over a year ago and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Having been a serial cardio junkie, joining this gym is helping me to build my strength in a way that works for me, helping protect me from injury so I can continue to enjoy a range of exercise for years to come. The quality and experience of instructors is next level and the support and attention you receive as a member is the best I’ve experienced of any gym near me. Alongside the real sense of community and fun there’s a space for anyone here regardless of age, fitness level or interest. The value you get from being a member exceeds any other gym I’ve attended over the years - I highly recommend!

Amelia Joy Thompson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Truly excellent and highly recommended! The small group sessions are ideal if (like me) you have never set foot in a gym before, and the coaches are happy to tailor movements to all levels of experience and ability. The emphasis on strength training is great; I had never used weights before and I am now happily lifting!

Fantastic experience: If I could give 6 stars I would! When I was looking for a gym near me I never thought I would find somewhere like Base13. The classes are ace, the trainers are so skilled and friendly. The people are all so lovely and there’s such a nice community around it, if you want to get involved.

Saori 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of base 13 for three+ years now! The coaches were welcoming from the start and really helped me start a routine of going to the gym. From boot camps, to metcons to small group PT all the coaches are knowledgeable, never hesitating to show you the same move for the hundredth time! Definitely reccomend for anyone who is looking for a gym near Lewisham area.

Alexia Ratcliffe 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: A wonderful community of supportive members and expert coaches who have made coming to the gym regularly a pleasure. The attention to detail is amazing - your progress is logged on an app and the coaches are all super friendly, fun and knowledgeable - you feel in very safe hands. It's an inclusive environment and everyone is made to feel welcome they also put a host of social and community focused events. As a woman in her 50 's of moderate fitness I couldn't recommend more!!

Laurie Tiojanco 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: In the short time I was at Base 13, I felt very welcome and comfortable. The best part of gym is being to move as your own pace whilst having the coaches push you to improve just enough. They take a holistic approach to training and I really felt like I could create a healthy lifestyle there. If it wasn’t for me having to move house, I would still be there. Highly recommend!

Gina Hobbs 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have used david llyod for years but found their soulless classes depressing and always came away with niggles and problems because of poor form and no one correcting it (which is not ideal because of old Injuries). I’ve been a member of Base13 for a year now and I am training in a way I never believed possible. I’m stronger, more motivated and am smashing my goals! The team are brilliant!

Ben Ryder 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This gym is really great and I would highly recommend whatever your experience level. I’m really noticing results after 3 months. The coaches are really focused and it feels really personal even in their 4 and 8 person sessions. There’s also a great community vibe - it’s fun and everyone is really friendly and encouraging.

Marina Lewis 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Just finished my trial with Base 13 and signed up for a regular membership. I really enjoyed my workouts here: lots of individual attention from all of the coaches, just the right amount of encouragement and pressure, very friendly atmosphere during the sessions. I tried really hard to find any negatives during this trial, but I honestly failed... Looking forward to my further training!

laura edwards 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have loved my trial month with Base 13 and am continuing my membership. The coaches are super knowledgeable, attentive and encouraging with lots of advice and tweaks to get the best out of you. The mix of classes is great. I particularly wanted to start training with weights but wasn’t confident doing this on my own. Base 13 has been a really welcoming and supportive place to start and working in small groups is really motivating. I like too that it’s got a great community vibe and a real mix of people and everyone is welcome. Highly recommend!

Jacqui Buscher 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of Base 13 for four months now and would recommend to everyone. It’s a friendly gym, with great coaches, and everyone makes you feel welcome right from the start. There’s a good variety of classes, an excellent app for booking classes and logging what you’ve achieved, and a designated coach for regular check-ins. A fantastic, inclusive gym!

Matthew Morley 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I joined Base 13 a few months ago as a very nervous, non-sporty guy in my mid-fifties who hated gyms, aware that I needed to do something about my physical health before I ran out of time! What I’ve found at Base 13 has been a revelation – headed up by indefatigable founder and owner Henry, a quartet of highly professional and infinitely patient coaches (who somehow always remember our names) run a mix of small-group training and larger classes which help teach, support, challenge and improve the fitness of a like-minded community made up of all ages and backgrounds, in an incredibly friendly and non-judgmental environment. In short, no matter how bad my day, I always feel better having spent time at Base 13.

Thank you for the review Matt! I think the recent 80kg deadlift PB goes to show the progress you've made through the effort and hard work you've put in! Always a pleasure to have you in the sessions!

Carrie Clarke 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’m really enjoying the classes, just what I needed! Seeing results and feeling fitter! I just finished the 30 day trial where I received access to classes and small group PT, 3kg down in one month. Classes are tailored to your own fitness level and the support from Base 13 trainers and community has made training something I look forward to now. Highly recommended if you need that extra push.

Thanks for your kind words Carrie, it's a testament to the hard work and effort you've put in over the first 30 days! Here's to seeing more results and progress!

Matt Tierney 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of the gym for around 4 months now, and the experience has been fantastic. All the trainers are extremely friendly, and supportive, and they strive to get the best out of you to help you reach your personal goals. They also do a fantastic job at including you in the wider Base13 community, making for a great environment in each class no matter your level/experience. I came in without much prior gym experience, and it has been a great journey being able to track and see progress. I would highly recommend!

Victoria Lane 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Base13 stands head and shoulders above any other gym I've been to. The fantastic coaching is aimed at the individual regardless of the class size, the 4 coaches make it challenging but fun and the community they have built around the training is something I've never experienced and value just as much as the fitness and strength I've gained!

Susie Thomas 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great experience - would highly recommend! Run by team of extremely professional and friendly trainers, small group classes which means tailoring to suit your needs/ability, and lots of good classes/options at suitable times throughout the week. Also good mix of indoor and outdoor classes, and extras such as run club and boot camps! Additionally has a strong local community vibe, incl an events calendar, which seems to help motivate its members and drive long term commitment! Feeling stronger after just 4 weeks of joining

Kate Selwood 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Henry and the rest of the coaches at Base 13 are super professional and supportive, without over hand holding so you leave feeling empowered and feeling that you’re that taking responsibility for your own progress. To me that’s the perfect balance. The customer care approach and the sense of community shined through even after my initial consultation and first group PT. Really happy that I joined!

Sam Heard 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym!! I’ve been going for a little over a month now and feel right at home, the staff are all very welcoming and knowledgable with a great variety of exercises for all abilities and fitness levels.

Hannah Perry 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Just finished my trial and absolutely loved it. Brilliant to have such motivating and technical coaching giving me confidence to push further after an injury and enjoy exercise again. Already feeling the results.

Julia Dench 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Base13 is a committed community-minded local gym that hits the mark with its diverse and effective training offerings. I was thoroughly impressed with my trial month with the team. The individuality and professionalism of the trainers stood out to me; each one brought a unique approach to training that kept sessions engaging and effective. The cardio Blast classes are energising and encourage you to push your limits (I’ll never look the same way at a Ski Erg again!), the SGPT (small group training of four members or fewer) and Build sessions supported me to extend my strength boundaries, and the Balance classes were a perfect way to unwind and improve flexibility (an often overlooked aspect to training), whilst partaking in some friendly banter with other members of the class community. The gym also hosts a variety of WhatsApp groups that focus on community events, running, walking and charity activities, to name a few. Henry has built something really special and meaningful with his team in this space, and I looking forward to continuing my fitness journey here!

kathleen taylor 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This is a gym like no other I have been to, inasmuch as I feel totally supported on my personal fitness journey. I am treated as an individual with individual needs but there is also a great emphasis on community which lifts the spirits. I always look forward to going 10/10

Kate Quarry 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I was given a trial membership of Base 13 as a birthday present, and have just joined properly at the end of the trial. The staff at Base 13 are so friendly and encourage you to try your best, push yourself a little more each time. Their hard work and commitment is so impressive. They know your fitness and strength levels and adjust exercises to suit you if you need that; there is no judgement and it is a really inclusive community. They even put on a women’s health seminar recently for free, which was extremely interesting, informative and valuable for women of any age. I’d recommend Base 13’s welcoming atmosphere and creative, personalised training to anyone.

Kate Morgan-Baker 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Attended Base13’s Women’s Health Seminar and was impressed at the depth and breadth of knowledge provided, both by external experts and in-house experience. So relevant to a huge group of the membership base, and the session tied the content directly back to my personal objectives and health aspirations which have grown as a result of joining Base13. Highly recommend!

Kasia Rafal Klos 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Before I joined Base13 I didn’t like attending the gym. Base 13 is a game changer! The workouts are encouraging and you want to push yourself further. Since I joined Base13 I took part in many challenges inspired by amazing coaches. It’s also a great place to meet new friends .

Fraser Southey 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I found Base 13 through friends - they all had great things to say about the place. I wanted to make some changes to my exercise regime by moving away from endurance cycling to an approach that would address my whole body and counteract my desk-based lifestyle - the classic round shouldered posture thing! Since signing up for my trial and then joining on an affordable plan the experience has been fantastic. The quality of coaching and one-to-one attention with the small groups is exceptional. The ‘camaraderie’ is fun and motivating. And I’m seeing results. A few kgs lost, a stronger core. And more awareness of good posture. I would recommend this place without reservation. It feels like a community as much as a gym filled with kit. Although the kit is also great.

Daisy Hunt 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Base13 is everything you would want a gym to be. Welcoming, non-judgemental, encouraging and supportive, both from the small team of excellent coaches and the lovely community it’s created. I love the mix of classes and PT sessions and feel like I’m always being pushed to achieve my goals without being pushed too hard. The coaches know everyone by name and the sense of 1-2-1 coaching even in group classes is amazing. It really has made me fall in love with exercise.

Ross Hildrew 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Initially, I was uncertain about what to expect before joining Base 13, as I hadn't spent much time in gyms and felt slightly intimidated by the rows of weights and barbells. However, I had no reason to worry. Base 13 offers a genuinely welcoming atmosphere, with incredibly supportive and encouraging coaches who understand individual capabilities and adapt their approach accordingly. Now, I'm thoroughly addicted and delighted to be a member. I highly recommend Base 13 to everyone.

Laura Astbury 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’d highly recommend Base 13 to people of all fitness levels, but especially if you’re someone who, like me, has felt intimidated by other gyms in the past. The coaches provide great personalised advice and encouragement and the whole Base 13 community is friendly and inclusive. Going to Base 13 doesn’t feel like a chore - I actually look forward to each session!

Eirini Paraschou 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Base13, where to begin from... A truly fantastic gym - friendly and inclusive of all fitness levels and goals. The coaches are knowledgeable, inspiring and push all members to achieve their goals in a positive and supportive way. Having to work from home most days, going to the gym is the highlight of my day and what I look most forward to. Exercise for the body, mind and soul. The community that Henry (the owner) has created is truly amazing. Supportive WhatsApp groups, social events, fitness events, friendships... Couldn't recommend this gym enough! You will look better, move better and more importantly feel better.

Fantastic experience: Members Matter at Base13! From working on the fitness goals of individuals, to fostering an environment where members support one another inside the gym as well as out, Base 13 is a gym like no other. Having regularly attended the Small Group Personal Training and Team sessions for over two years, the longest I’ve been a member at any gym, I cannot express how grateful I am to the coaches for their patience and commitment to getting me started on my fitness journey. Not only do they know their stuff, but they also make working out exciting, each coach brings their own unique style and expertise to the classes, and thus creating an energising atmosphere that has seen me regularaly beat my personal bests.

Viv Griffiths 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: It's difficult to review Base 13 without it sounding too good to be true. But Base 13 really is phenomenal. I have a solid track record of enthusiastically joining gyms that I go to for about 6 weeks & then rarely set foot in the door again. Base 13 clearly bucked that trend as I joined in September 2021 and have now been to more than 250 sessions! The coaches are brilliant, super friendly & encouraging, they know every member by name and every session can be adapted to your needs because the groups are small. At 48, I feel fitter & stronger than I have done in years. But it's not just the coaching that's amazing at Base 13, it's also the day to day community, social events, members & coaches ready to offer advice and encouragement when you need it. Honestly, I could sing the praises of Base 13 til the cows come home but don't take my word for it, give it a go, you'll not regret it.

Hey Viv! Thanks for your feedback. The Team really appreciate your kind words. Congratulations on achieving such remarkable milestone of 25o sessions. That's a lot to commitment. We love to have you as part of Base13!

Alexa McKay 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good things about Base13. I joined the gym 2 years ago after a long period of no exercise. Both members and the coaches made me feel very welcome from day 1. I love the fact that class sizes are small which means you are treated as an individual and get plenty of personal attention. The coaches are always happy to adapt exercises when needed and are so supportive and motivating. It feels great to be able to train with people of all fitness and strength levels, and I have felt the benefits mentally and physically since signing up. Henry and his team go out of their way to get to know every member and make exercising fun. They also organise an amazing number of social events and the gym has a real community feel. Whatever your fitness level, and whatever your goals, base 13 will support you to get fitter and stronger.

Fantastic experience: Best gym I’ve ever belonged to and I’ve belonged to many! Coaches are top notch and so knowledgeable. They do so much to make each of us feel included in the community. I moved here from the US knowing not a soul in Hither Green and I feel like I instantly gained 100+ new friends! Also love how they do quarterly fitness testing so we can see how we progress and have great apps to book classes and track progress!

Ann Azzopardi 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This is the gym you've been searching for your whole life! A small (but non-clique), supportive community that laugh and workout together. From my short time there, the members appear to have all become more than gym buddies but friends too, fostered by Henry and his team of mega professional, approachable, non judgmental coaches. I'm still a newbie, so I can't testify, but they also do socials and hang out together too. Oh and Henry sells branded merch too, it's not mandatory to wear the ultra cool shirts, muscle vests, and branded socks but everyone does, like they're comrades and they're proud to be part of Base13. And as for the workouts, they're all coach led, in really small groups so you're never left on your own, proper form is always their top priority and you end up learning a new 'workout' acronym or two..

Base 13 not only has good equipment and knowledgable, friendly coaches, but a membership comes with a community of people who really do look out for and care for each other. Being a member of Base 13 is good for the physical and mental health of the member and I couldn't recommend it more.

Fantastic experience: Base13 is a gym and a community. Full of all the things you want (hard training , support, knowledgeable team) and a lot of things you don't expect - particularly the community side. Help from finding electricians to the areas best coffee. An asset to the area.

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Coaches are great: friendly and expert. There's a very good combination of challenge, support and encouragement for everyone - wherever you are at - programming is on point.

Fantastic experience: Base13 is a fabulous gym which is welcoming to all. I really enjoy the small class format (typically 4-8 people) there is a great variety (strength, cardio, mobility, mixed) and times to suit every schedule. Booking is easy via an app which you can also use to track your progress. The coaches go the extra mile, they get to know everyone’s goals and quirks and work with you to train safely. I joined over a year ago to improve my overall fitness and I haven’t looked back!

Fantastic experience: Base 13 is a very special place. If you want get fitter and stronger it's the place to be. The programming as part of Small Group Personal Training works. I have been training for 12 months and continue to get stronger, hitting new PBs. Training is tailored to the individual with a focus on proper technique. Group class MetCon is also a favourite of mine, the workout changes every time and is a mix of weights and fitness (ski, row, bike, run) - it definitely clears the cobwebs! The gym community is great, at the most basic level it's nice to train with nice people. Oh and not to forget the great coaches who know all the members well, tailoring the training. There is not a better place to stay motivated and hit your personal goals

Fantastic experience: I can not recommend Base13 enough. The trainers are extremely knowledgable and they ensure that they take time to explain everything. There is absolutely no judgement at this gym, I am not your typical looking gym goer, but I have loved every minute of it. I have made so much progress and am much stronger than I ever imagined I could be. I love the small class sizes as that helps you be accountable rather than get lost in a larger gym class where they don’t know you. Base 13 is a community and you can be involved as little or as much as you want. I love that balance of picking and choosing. Thank you to everyone at Base 13

Fantastic experience: I have always led an active lifestyle, but rarely have I seen results develop so quickly. If that weren't enough, the team is also wonderful - very encouraging and great at what they do. Highly recommend for anyone who gets easily bored at the gym.

Fantastic experience: Been going for 3 months now and it’s honestly changed my life! I feel leaner, stronger and just healthier overall. The coaches are all wonderful. Passionate, caring, fun, and ready to push you. It’s lovely working out with a group of like-minded individuals. There is a really strong sense of community at Base 13. And I love how inclusive of an environment it is. Never any judgement, everyone just comes to work hard and have some laughs in the process! The personalised feel of the sessions and the support you get from the coaches is also something that is really special about base 13. I can’t recommend it enough.

Fantastic experience: This gym is an absolute gem, and the coaches are the shining stars that make it sparkle.Their knowledge turns workouts into insightful sessions, and the techniques they teach elevate your fitness game. It's not just a gym; it's a supportive community where progress is celebrated. If you're after a place that blends expertise with encouragement, look no further – this gym and its coaches are the real deal!

Rhiannon Jenkins 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Couldn't recommend Base 13 more. Fantastic coaches, super inclusive and supportive. Never felt confident using weights previously, the coaches have given me the confidence and will spend a lot of time and attention to make sure you're doing the movements correctly. Sessions are fun and always scaled to your ability. One of my worries when finding gym classes was not being able to keep up, but at Base 13 there's no judgment and the coaches, along with other members, always push you to do your best with no judgment on abilities.

Fantastic experience: I love being a part of the Base 13 community. I had recently moved to the area and had a new baby. I found Vanessa's post natal classes which helped me recover back to my usual fitness level, build confidence and strength. Vanessa has a depth of knowledge around post natal recovery and develops the sessions based on individual needs. Now that I am going to the teams & SGPT sessions, I am so glad to have found this gym! Each coach is super knowledgeable and tailors the sessions in line with personal goals. The facilities are good, the equipment is high quality in excellent condition, the timetabling has good availability and easy to book on via boxmate (also good for tracking progress). It is a respectful, fun, non judgemental community that supports everyone.

Fantastic experience: Base 13 is a truly wonderful and unique gym, the type I’ve always hoped to find - a great training program and a really supportive and social community. It’s a safe and inclusive place, with people of all ages and abilities. I’ve been a member for approaching two months and I’m so pleased to have joined. They offer a full timetable of classes and small group PT sessions so I have a really good balance of strength training and aerobic exercise with the accountability that I need. I’ve never felt so motivated and committed to my exercise and health. There’s also an emphasis on building a community through social events. The coaches are wonderful, they know everyone by name and offer a personalised approach according to your needs. I feel super lucky to have this on my doorstep.

Ruby Waterworth 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to Base 13 since the start of the year and it’s the best gym experience I’ve ever had. (I’ve tried ~lots~ of different kinds of gyms and classes in the past.) The coaches are so knowledgeable, attentive and welcoming, and they really get to know each member so they can tailor exercises to people’s needs. The classes are varied, suited to all levels and push you as hard as you want to go. They are always one of the most enjoyable parts of my day. I can’t recommend Base 13 highly enough!

Hannah Butler 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I joined Base 13 18 months ago and it was a total game changer in my fitness. It’s the only gym/ workout regime I’ve ever been able to stick to consistently - the team have an incredibly friendly and personal approach to training, creating a fun and supportive environment. I used to find gyms quite overwhelming, particularly weight training. B13’s personalised approach has made a huge difference to my approach and motivation. The schedules are really flexible and the gym itself is great, and the classes are varied regularly. You also agree personal targets with your coach which makes it feel like you’re making good progress. What really sets the gym apart is the amazing community the team has built, which creates a hugely friendly and support environment.

Gemma Pike 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Base 13 is a truly excellent gym. One of the most inclusive and friendly gym spaces I've been too! The coaches are fantastic, always ready to help and genuinely care about their clients. The community built around the gym is the real USP. There are always social events to get involved with and all of the members are super friendly. I've been a member for just over a year and wished that I had joined sooner! Everyone is welcome whether you are a regular gym goer or are just starting out. Couldn't recommend this gym enough!

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym ever! The level of care and professionalism is impressive! I've been a member of other gyms in London and none compare to Base 13. You get detailed attention to your technique, practical tips for improving the areas you are focusing on, a warm welcome and the feeling that you are part of a community. The coaches are very knowledgeable, friendly and with vast training experience. Highly recommended!

Jamie 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I only intended to do a months PT, I hadn’t been in a gym for ‘several’ years, I liked working with Henry and the other coaches so much I’ve now been going for five years (and counting!). The Base 13 studio is a perfect space as a private studio and workout venue. All the equipment and space you need, with more personal focus and attention than any gym. The coaches are incredibly friendly, professional and mostly importantly fun. Thief level of experience and knowledge shows in every session. I’ve never been a ‘Gym person’ but this isn’t a gym.

Hopi Sen 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I went on a 30 day no commitment trial ar after seeing my partner really enjoyed her sessions and really improved her fitness, while keeping her enthusiasm. I’d never really enjoyed the gym, conditioning or weights before, but the supportive coaching, variety of training,, and most of all, the encouraging community Henry and his team have kept me going for two years now, in which time I’ve massively improved my fitness, lost weight and learned an awful lot- i’d definitely recommend to Base13 to anyone who wants to improve their fitness in an environment that is nonjudgmental, encouraging and fun.

Daisy Ifama 2 years ago

Nive Raviarunan 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: For the first time, I actually look forward to my workouts and never want to miss a session! Coaches are hands on and push you to achieve your goals in a positive and supportive manner. To top that, they have built a brilliant supportive and non-judgemental community with regular physical challenges and socials to keep everyone motivated whilst having a laugh. It's not easy to find a gym in London, where you feel like you belong and people genuinely care, so if you're lucky enough to have heard of Base 13 give it a shot and you won't regret.
