Eley Fitness Limited: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Fantastic, friendly gym, great workouts which are varied and never boring! Would thoroughly recommend
Fantastic experience: Great gym and personal training space. I’m not a fan of conventional gyms packed with lots of people and equipment as I’m quite an anxious person. I think I am among many in saying I feel so comfortable here. Everyday is something new and I’m always pushed to try and exceed my limits in a safe space. The trainers are personable and easy to get along with and very educated if you ever have any concerns or questions. I genuinely enjoy going here and will always recommend ✨
Thanks so much for this Kloe we’re so glad you feel comfortable in the gym ☺️ We love having you in our classes
Fantastic experience: As an older person, who has rarely used a gym, the idea of going to one was daunting! But Ed and the team are so friendly, I felt at home straight away. Nothing is too much trouble for the trainers- they offer encouragement and challenge and are skilled at making adaptations so everyone can get the most out of the sessions. I am really surprised that i actually look forward to my gym classes each week. It has made such a difference to my physical health and also my mental wellbeing. I can’t recommend Eley fitness highly enough.
Thanks so much for this Sarah We absolutely love having you at our gym classes and the difference it’s made from when you started in amazing Thank you for choosing to train with us
Fantastic experience: I’d never used a gym before, was scared to go on my own. Since starting Eley, I’ve grown confidence to go on my own because the community is amazing. The PT’s are encouraging but not pushy. Made some good friends and really enjoy working out. I would recommend Eley fitness to anybody.
Thanks so much for this Molly we love having you at the gym ☺️ It’s been great watching your confidence grow in the classes! Keep smashing in
Fantastic experience: Love the classes, Jayne keeps me motivated A place for everyone, where you are welcomed and supported!
Thanks so much for this Clare we’re so glad you love the classes (and Jayne… she’s a superstar ) We’re delighted you feel welcomed and supported… That’s one of the biggest things for us ☺️
Fantastic experience: Lovely small gym but still has lots of classes which aren't overcrowded. Options to book a batch of classes as well as a full gym membership. All the trainers are very enthusiastic and helpful.
Thanks so much for this Tara we’re so pleased you enjoy the classes at the gym and you find our trainers like that We’re really pleased you’re training with us ☺️
Fantastic experience: Ed and the team are A*. They are so professional, very knowledgeable and put together THE best programmes and classes
Thanks so much for this Mel… We’re so pleased you enjoy the classes ☺️
Fantastic experience: Great attentive trainers who all treat you personally and look after you no matter your age or level of fitness! Thanks team Ely.
Thanks so much for this Phil ☺️ really appreciate the feedback on our trainers We love having you and Sara as part of our gym ☺️
Fantastic experience: I’ve been to a few gyms in my life and can genuinely say that Eley is by far and away the best. I've been a member since March 2023 and still going strong (excuse the pun :-) ) The class variations are awesome, fun, never repetitive (still don't understand how that happens) and you are gently pushed to do your best so you get the best out of it. Instructors and members alike are supportive, fun and non-judgmental. I really do love it and highly recommend the gym to everyone regardless of their current fitness level.
Thanks so much for this Tara ☺️ we absolutely love having you as part of our gym and we’re so glad you enjoy the classes ☺️ long may it continue
Fantastic experience: Eley Fitness is a game changer! I’ve been training with Ed for many years on and off and decided to rejoin Eley Fitness a few months ago now, and it’s hands down one of the best decisions i've made. The facility is always clean, well-maintained, and welcoming. Ed and his team are incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to help you with your form or offer training tips. Another big plus is the community atmosphere. Everyone is super supportive, and it makes working out more enjoyable and motivating. If you’re looking for a gym that’s welcoming, professional, and focused on results, Eley Fitness is the place to be. Highly recommend!
Thanks so much for this Claire ☺️We’re so pleased you rejoined the gym a few months ago It’s great to have you back part of this amazing community ☺️
Fantastic experience: Personal training with Eley Fitness has been really good. They're very knowledgeable and welcoming. The instruction is motivating without being pushy and they were able to accommodate and help with pre-existing injuries. My trainer Myles designed some great sessions which allowed me to enjoy the workout and perform better, without all the brain work which usually comes with planning a gym session for yourself. He's given me some great ideas to take forward into my independent training. I'd certainly recommend Myles and Eley generally.
Fantastic experience: Who'da thought the gym could be fun? I've been working with Matty to increase my upper body strength and have reached my goal. Matty is wonderful! The sessions are well targeted, varied and fun. Matty comes with a wealth of knowledge. I highly recommend her as a personal trainer. Thank you Matty for getting me to my goal! Great gym too.
Thank you so much for leaving us a review Teddi!! We are delighted to hear you’re enjoying your sessions with Matty, she’s a brilliant trainer and an asset to the team. Long may it continue having fun at the gym ☺️ that’s exactly the environment we strive to cultivate!!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this gym, It has a great atmosphere and a good sense of community. Highly recommend
Thank you so much for your great review Marianne, we really appreciate it! Love having you train with us.
Fantastic experience: Excellent Gym, would highly recommend.
Thank you so much for your review Sarah, we’ve loved training you.
Fantastic experience: I've been coming to Eley Fitness for over a year now. It's a great gym with such a variety of people attending with a good range of classes. I've never done the same workout twice! You're always greeted with a smile and the groups are so welcoming.
Thank you so much for your review Charlie. We are so pleased you’ve enjoyed the classes, we always try and keep each one different to make sure you never get bored and it keeps your body guessing. We really enjoy training you.
Fantastic experience: Amazing classes with lovely support
Thank you so much for your review Natasha, we love to hear the feedback. We are so glad you enjoyed your session.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love the place! Great atmosphere, great sessions! My strength and fitness have never been as good as they are now! Would highly recommend!
Thanks so much for your review David, we are so pleased you enjoy your sessions with us. We love having you as part of the Eley Fitness family for as long as we have. ☺️
Fantastic experience: I have been training with Eley Fitness for just over 12 months now. My first introduction was an 8 week intensive plan, including measurements and a diet plan. I have never enjoyed “the gym” so I was apprehensive about signing up. I couldn’t have been more wrong! From the moment I walked through the door, I was made to feel welcomed & comfortable. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole process, both Ed & Torie where there every step of the way, and if I ever had any concerns or questions, they would respond swiftly and professionally, at any time. The fact I’m still attending now says it all, I’m hooked! I really look forward to each and every session! An example to the industry of how it should be done! Love you guys!
Hi Dan, thanks so much for the nice words and great review. It means so much to hear what it’s done for you. Keep up the amazing work!!
Fantastic experience: Arguably the best gym in Bakewell, definitely the most fun. Well done team.
Thank you so much for your review Thomas, we love that you enjoy the sessions as much as we do!!! We think exercise should be fun, then you’ll keep on doing it Thanks Eley fitness
Fantastic experience: i’ve always hated any form of exercise i’ve tried before but i’m really enjoying torie’s classes and everyone is very welcoming :)
Thank you so much Isobel for your review. We are so pleased you are enjoying the classes. Torie is loving having you at her classes and your progress has been so impressive. Keep up the good work.Eley fitness
Fantastic experience: Excellent experience. Clear instructions from a highly qualified team . Friendly understanding members of staff. Fitness regime designed just for your fitness level and goals.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review Alison, we really appreciate the feedback and lovely comments :) Eley Fitness
Fantastic experience: The best place to train! The staff are all incredible and it has such a great sense of community! would recommend to anyone, whether you’re new to fitness or a seasoned pro!
Hi Jessica, Thank you so much for your review and we are so pleased you enjoy your experience with us as that is everything we strive every day to achieve. See you soonEley Fitness
Fantastic experience: Eley fitness is amazing- I have become absolutely addicted to the classes and the buzz I get after the classes! It’s made me love exercise again ❤️❤️
Hi Anna, we can’t thank you enough for this review. It gives us the greatest job satisfaction hearing how much you are enjoying the classes. Thanks so much Eley fitness
Fantastic experience: Can't think of a better way to start a Sunday than with a high energy class, great music and lots of positivity and encouragement from Torie!! Completely sets me up for the day and week ahead. Thanks so much for giving members a whole week of great fitness options.
Hi Juliet, Thank you so much for your kind review, and we absolutely love having your smiley face in class. Great work this morning in class!!Eley Fitness
Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend Eley Fitness highly enough - it’s a welcoming, safe, encouraging & positive place - unlike any gym I’ve ever joined in the last 40 years. Never been fitter, never felt better and NEVER had more fun doing it!! Thank you all
Hi Sara, Thank you so much for leaving us a review about your experience with us. It’s so nice to hear you’re enjoying it as much as we are training you. Keep up the good work.Eley fitness
Fantastic experience: I hate the gym, but Eley Fitness isn’t like any normal gym. Ed & Torie have built an amazing place where anyone of any age or fitness level feels welcome. I’ve been going 5 years now and would never go anywhere else
Thank you so much for leaving a review Jon, we can't thank you enough for summarising exactly what we strive every day to create!! We love having you as part of the team, and sessions are even better when Billy comes along :) Thanks Eley Fitness
Fantastic experience: I've been going to Eley Fitness for just over a year and love it!! I've been to gyms before but I much prefer the classes, Ed does a great job in making sure that no class is the same. Would definitely recommend it!!
Thanks Rob, love having you as part of the team!!
Fantastic experience: What a gym! I have never ever been to a gym in my life until this one (and I'm late 30's). It's welcoming, encouraging and just so easy to start. I now go 3+ times a week religiously and really love all the staff and members. They have open gym, classes, PT sessions, extra group PT sessions plus community/social days. I would highly recommend!
Hi Katie, We can’t thank you enough for taking the time to leave us a review, we really appreciate it. We loved reading how much you are enjoying training with us, keep up the amazing work.Eley fitness
Fantastic experience: Eley Fitness really goes that extra mile to make you feel welcome and help you to achieve your goals. Ed is a fantastic instructor, full of energy and enthusiasm and clearly loves what he does. I always look forward to my training sessions, knowing that I am being taught by a true professional and that I will improve my level of fitness. Thanks Ed.
Thanks so much Eric - We love having you training with us! Keep up the amazing work. Eley fitness
Fantastic experience: I began training at Eley Fitness in September & have honestly never looked back!!! I was someone who always struggled with consistency and keeping motivated whilst training alone in a gym so wanted a trainer to give me a little guidance in order for me to not feel like the gym and I are at a constant battle. I now train 3x a week with Mattie (who is just fab btw!) and also go to the gym on my off days. Ed is an absolute star and made me a plan for my gym workouts also, making it so I know exactly what I’m doing each week keeping my workouts consistent. I’ve always loved fitness and been bothered about keeping myself fit & healthy, however now; the fact I have a consistent routine is just what I needed and makes me feel so great at the end of each week. Having Mattie as my trainer is honestly amazing, we get along so well and I would genuinely consider more a friend than a trainer. It’s always a really nice comfortable vibe whilst training and also a massive gossip session, what more could you ask!! I have deffo made a lot of progress & can’t wait to see further results later down the line within my journey. The whole team at Eley Fitness are extremely warm, friendly and accommodating which is a MASSIVE win as starting something like personal training or classes in a new environment can be particularly daunting, however they do all in their power to reduce all the anxiety you may have.
Thanks so much for this Thalia this is so lovely! We love having you as part of our team :D
Fantastic experience: I cant recommend Eley Fitness enough. Me and my son go to a variety of classes across the week, mainly the early morning sessions, which keep our mental and physical balance in check. I now am sad when i dont go rather than grumbling about having to go to the gym. My love of fitness is well and truly back. The one thing that also stands out is that they took my sport obsessed son seriously in his love of sport and exercise whilst taking great care due to his age and development. A wonderful place to be part of .
Hi Clare, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We love having you both as part of the Eley Fitness family, and love to hear how much you are both enjoying it. Keep up the amazing work. Eley Fitness
Fantastic experience: I'm into my 6th year of getting and keeping fit at Eley. That takes a lot of perseverance and a lot of encouragement! Being a regular at a gym involves so many factors - the trainers, the equipment, the community feel, even the parking! Ed and Torie wanted to build something different to many other gyms. It wasn't about having a beach body or hitting the next burpees target - they know that people go through good times and difficult times; they know that it is easier to go to a workout at some times rather than others, and that it's easy to give up! I thrive on encouragement, and the team at Eley are excellent at standing with you through the good times and those difficult times. They understand that achieving a level of fitness is good for the body AND for your mental health. They don't chase the fittest 1% of people, but train people from all backgrounds. They want everyone to have access to health - physical and mental health. I cannot recommend Eley Fitness high enough!
Chris, we cannot thank you enough for your kind words you have truly captured everything we aim and set out to achieve every day!We are looking forward to many more years with you, and love being right by your side throughout your journey.
Fantastic experience: Only been coming here for three weeks and thoroughly enjoying all the different classes. Staff are very helpful and friendly. I didn’t want to be in an everyday gym environment, amongst machines and no idea how any of them worked so the different classes at Eley mean you do something different every time. There also open 7 days a week and classes throughout the day so something for everyone.
Hi Claire, we can't thank you enough for taking the time to leave us a review, we really appreciate it. We are so pleased you enjoy the sessions and we love having you there. Thanks Eley Fitness
Fantastic experience: Had the best time at the Eley Fitness Charity day a few months back. The guys go above and beyond for their members and are building quite the community. We have joined them on a couple of their Charity Days now and they've raised thousands for Weston Park. A great facility with top of the range equipment but more importantly, great, great people! Highly recommend!!
Hi, thank you so much for your review. We really appreciate that and the support you have shown us for our charity days. We look forward to the next one. Eley Fitness
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing. I love attending classes at Eley Fitness. Every class is different, never repetitive, very accommodating and user friendly. Workouts are well structured, thought through, intensive and motivating. I have used other gym facilities before but this one is the best. I love all classes but Torie 's classes are my favourite. She is amazing!! Highly recommend the gym.
Hi Aneta, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review, we really appreciate it. We love you enjoy coming as much as we enjoy having you there. Keep up to good work :) Eley Fitness
Fantastic experience: With the caveat that I've nothing to compare this with, as I'm not really a fan of gyms (this is the first one I've been to), and I've only been going for a few weeks. However, it's very friendly and I like the fact they have a big "garage" door that's open, so, while not outside, there's lot's of fresh air. I've only been to the circuit classes, which have been varied enough to be interesting and both trainers have been fun & encouraging. It's a sociable, supportive place to go if you want to get/stay fit.
Hi Neil, thank you so much for your review and kind words. We are so glad you are enjoying the sessions so far, and we hope you enjoy many more to come.Eley fitness
Fantastic experience: I spent 20 years saying gym’s just aren’t for me, then on a whim I did a 7 day free trial at Eley Fitness and over a year later it’s become such a key part of my life that I can’t live without at least 3 classes a week. This is truly a gym like no other. There are excellent class options with loads of times available so I can always find something to suit my schedule and I love that every session is different. Monday nights to offset Monday blues, Fridays after work for shaking work off and Saturday mornings for starting the weekend positively are my current faves. All the trainers are really engaging, inspiring and supportive. The ethos established by Ed and Torie really carries through so it feels inclusive and non judgmental, it’s a truly lovely environment and I’ve got to know some great people. I could wax lyrical about this place as I feel so much stronger, healthier and happier since I joined, but I’ll shut up now.
Hi Laura, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review and we can't tell you how much it means to us to hear that you experience everything we work so hard to create. We love having you as part of our Eley Fitness family and bring with you on your fitness journey. Many thanks Eley Fitness
Fantastic experience: Can not recommend these guys highly enough. I’ve tried other programmes and ‘gyms’ but never felt as comfortable or as welcome as I do here! Such a fabulous and knowledgeable group of people, their group sessions are always varied, fun and push you without you even realising it! I always walk away with a smile on my face, even if it hurts! In a group of 20 or more people, (some older, some younger, some incredibly fit, some just starting out!) they are more than happy to spend time with you to make sure you’re getting the most out of the sessions. If you’ve never been to a gym before try Eley Fitness, it’s awesome!
Thanks so much Becki this review is amazing and we are pleased we make you feel like that. Thanks again for the great feedback
Fantastic experience: All of the Eley Fitness team are so friendly and approachable and make every class lots of fun whilst catering for all abilities. If I want a tough work out, I can have a tough work out. If I’m not quite on form, that’s ok too. If I’m having a bad day, it never fails to cheer me up. I chose the 3 times a week option which fits in perfectly with my busy work schedule. There’s lots of different classes and open gym sessions to choose from - even more so now they’re open 7 days a week.
Hi Nicky, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review, we really appreciate it. We are so pleased to hear what your get from our membership with us and absolutely love having you as part of our Eley Fitness team. Thanks again Eley Fitness
Fantastic experience: The best gym classes in the local area! I have been going to Eley Fitness since March 2022 after trying their initial freebie week and I have never done the same class twice. Ed & Torie create the most welcoming gym environment and make all workouts suitable for all abilities - whether you’re training for a specific goal or just getting started/starting over. Their latest timetable has sessions over 7 days - morning, noon and night - so it makes getting sessions in so much more achievable too ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you so much for your amazing review Francesca…. We are so pleased you are enjoying the latest timetable!! We love having you training with us, keep up the amazing work ☺️Eley fitness
Fantastic experience: Great Place, Nice owners. Would Recommend.
Thank you so much for this review Ryan we really appreciate it.
Fantastic experience: A* Service, A* Fitness, A* Community, A* Equipment. Look no further for a gym that has it all in Bakewell!!!
Thank you so much for your kind review, we are glad you are enjoying your time with us it means a lot to us.EF
Fantastic experience: After a friend (also a member) kept badgering me to go with her I finally caved and went along for my free weeks trial! Never looked back since! It doesn’t matter what weight, shape, size or fitness levels you are at there is something for EVERYONE. The trainers are so friendly and helpful, I would highly recommend joining ☺️
Hi Kelly, thank you so much for leaving us such a great review. Love that what we stand for has come across in your experience with us.Keep up the amazing work.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym. Ed and the team could not be more welcoming and they have created a superb atmosphere around the place. Before joining I spoke to a number of gyms and Ed was the only one who actually listened to my individual goals! He then tailored a plan to suit me rather than trying to push generic fitness classes. Awesome place and awesome people. It's the first time in my life I have stuck to a fitness plan!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review John, we absolutely love having you at the gym and we are so pleased you’re enjoying it. Keep up the amazing work
Fantastic experience: As a new mum and new to the area I was so happy when I discovered Eley fitness. I took part in a four-week programme to support me back into fitness, postpartum/Caesarean which included attending group classes along with one PT session a week with Dolf. The staff were so supportive and friendly that I instantly felt comfortable being back in the gym environment and loved being back in group fitness. I felt at ease adapting exercises to suit my recovery and there wasn't a competitive atmosphere that you can often find in gyms. Once my four weeks were up I felt I had the love back for exercise and confidence and strength back in my body. I was really impressed with the variety of memberships available to suit different circumstances and having the flexibility to buy a block of classes really suited my needs. I couldn't recommend Eley fitness more, especially if you are new to exercise or lack confidence in exercising with others. Thank you!
Hi Laurie,Thank you so much for your kind review! We are so pleased to hear about your experience, as that embodies everything we are as a business.Thanks so muchEley Fitness
Fantastic experience: Fantastic place with very knowledgeable trainers. Really enjoying my sessions and always look forward to going and working out!

Fantastic experience: The virtual gym sessions with Torie, Ed and team have made a real difference in enabling me to keep up my fitness and a maintain a sense of community during lockdown - recommended!

Thank you so much for your review, it means a lot to us all to hear how much you enjoy training with us :)
Fantastic experience: Eley Fitness changed my life. A few years ago I was convinced to join a class by a friend. I was hooked after the first session. The team are very friendly and knowledgeable. After attending for a few years I'm a much healthier and happier person. Give them a call you wont regret it!
Thank you so much for your review Troy!! We are pleased you are enjoying the classes- you are a pleasure to train

Thanks so much for your review and kind words, so pleased you feel like that!!
Fantastic experience: If like me you are one of those people who is always saying ‘oh I might try that ‘ and keep putting it off , then you need to head down to Eley Fitness as once you’ve tried it , you will keep trying , week after week . I’ve never left there without a big smile on my face .. red face yes.. but always with a smile !
Thanks so much for the review Alison, your feedback means so much and pleased to hear you leave smiling regardless :)
Fantastic experience: I need to move back from Cornwall for the personal training that I received from Torie. She was great. For her motivation, careing, friendly attitude and in such a great environment.
Thanks so much for the lovely review Sharon, we hope you are well. And you know you are always welcome when back this way... anytime :)
Fantastic experience: Knowledge is everything and these guys have it in spades! Plenty of training/gyms out there but this place is one of the very best. Not an exaggeration to say they saved me from a “run away” body. Can’t thank you guys enough.
Thanks so much for the great feedback Phil, you are a pleasure to train. Keep up the good work :)
Fantastic experience: This place is very energising, constantly challenging and loads of fun. The team provide great motivation and encouragement to help you reach your goals. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: The staff are always so lovely and welcoming. The best place to train if you want results in a relaxed and friendly environment, couldn’t recommend them enough!!
Thanks so much Emily, your review means a lot to us.

Thanks so much for the great review Gracie and pleased to hear how much you enjoy training here at Eley fitness :)
Fantastic experience: Just had my diabetes 3 month check and the results are AMAZING. With Torie's guidance and programme I'm near to be taken off medication! Can't wait for the next 3 month assessment. Thank you so much.
The results you have achieved have been outstanding and we couldn’t be prouder of you. Keep up the amazing work Russ
Fantastic experience: As I can only drop in and out of a gym due to flying for a living... this gym is perfect for me!! Always so friendly and welcoming even though I don’t come consistently. Can’t recommend this place or their staff enough.
Thanks for the review Christian, I’m pleased our pay as you go structure works for you and your hours. See you soon :)
Fantastic experience: I started training at Eley in April 2017 and have never looked back.From someone who has avoided exercise for the last 25 years I now absolutely love it!!!!Great trainers in a fun and friendly environment.Go on give it a go...!!!
Thanks so much for this amazing review and lovely feedback... means a lot :)
Fantastic experience: For someone who used to be frightened of going to the gym, this is a great place to be. There must be something special as I’ve been going for three years and not given up . Friendly, supportive and highly recommended
Thanks so much for the great review and feedback Alison, it means so much to us :)
Fantastic experience: Fantastic Friendly Staff, great varied workouts and PTs. It's one large family of staff and clients. Best Gym for miles.
Thanks so much for this review Caroline, and it’s great to have you and your family a part of our Eley fitness family
Fantastic experience: when I first joined eley fitness I had not been to a fitness place in a long time due to illness I had convinced myself that at 50plus my exercising days were behind me.I could not have been more wrong they taught me ,encouraged me ,and showed me that working out could be fun, I made new friends and found something for me that got me out of the house and as well as losing weight my Mood became more upbeat I have never looked booked And feel proud of what I can now do boxing being one of my fav classes
Thanks so much Julie, these words mean so much and we are so glad you share our love for boxing ☺️
Fantastic experience: Approaching my 60th birthday, this is the only exercise environment that I have ever felt comfortable in and actually enjoy. I can’t praise, recommend or thank the team at Eley Fitness enough for their encouragement, support and good humour!
Thanks so much Mandy, these words been the world to us. We are so pleased to hear you enjoy training :)
Fantastic experience: Personalised work out for someone with ataxia must have taken lots of research and time. It made a massive difference to my fitness and more so my mental health. Having been told not to run anymore, something I loved, but to have a training plan which made me strong and helped my balance and fatigue issues was amazing. Tori and Ed are brilliant at what they do.
Thank you so much for your review Gill, it means so much to us that you enjoyed your experience with us.We are so pleased you feel better since training with us.Eley Fitness
Fantastic experience: A great place to train with supportive staff who have helped me (and my whole family) with fitness and dietary advice. The app is great for booking sessions. I feel fitter, stronger and lighter thanks to their help and we’ve made lovely friends along the way. Highly recommend!
Thanks so much for the 5* review and great feedback Loz it means so much to us :)
Fantastic experience: Great place to workout. PT’s are really friendly and cater workouts that suit you. Did the diet plan from Torie and learnt so much about nutrition and how to fuel my training. I feel better about myself! Would definitely recommend.
Thanks so much for the review Laura, pleased to hear how much you have taken from the experience here :)
Fantastic experience: Love everything about this place! The staff are amazing- really friendly and approachable! I’ve been having 1-1 sessions with Rachel for the past few months and I feel like a different person- she is incredible! Every session is different and I feel like I am always challenged pushed! I really can’t praise this place enough!
Thanks so much for this review Michael and it’s nice to hear how much you enjoy your sessions with Rachel :)
Fantastic experience: By far the best fitness place I’ve been to! The staff are very welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. Everything is pitched perfectly for each individual and I could not be more grateful for the support and training they have given me.
Thanks so much for the review Jayne, your words means so much :)
Fantastic experience: Awesome place! I was so nervous about getting back into the gym and wasn't sure I was a 'gym person' (my only experience of gyms were the big chains with endless rows of treadmills, blasting dance music and a testosterone fog by the weights area I tried desperately to avoid), but I have really come to love this place and what it does for me; the staff are so welcoming and friendly, ridiculously supportive and enthusiastic and you can't help but want to come back. The classes are interesting and suitable for any ability, you can adapt most bits to suit your fitness level and there's no judgement. They are passionate ambassadors for supporting positive mental health through exercise and it really feels like a lovely little community. Worth every penny!
Thanks so much for the lovely feedback Laura and how you describe us is exactly the gym we want to be so they mean a lot :)
Fantastic experience: I've been training with Eley Fitness for around 3 years now and I've had fantastic support from Ed, Torie and the team. I've achieved genuine and permanent results from my training which is always fun, different, challenging and personalised to my needs and abilities, even in a group class setting. I honestly cannot recommend them highly enough!
Hi Milly, thanks so much for the lovely feedback and to hear that it’s had such an effect on you :) keep up the good work.
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Eley Fitness enough. It's nothing like other gyms & no 2 classes are the same. Ed, Torie and the other trainers genuinely care for everybody who comes through their door - shouting hello before you even step inside! They make exercise into a hobby instead of a chore. Get yourselves signed up, I'm confident that you won't regret it!
Thanks so much for your kind words Annabel, it means so much!! ☺️
Fantastic experience: Eley Fitness is an excellent place to work out. The staff are so friendly. I love my 1-1 personal training (and the banter) with Ed. It's tough but I keep going back for more!!
Hi Jane, thanks so much for this lovely review and feedback it means so much :)
Fantastic experience: The most positive and supportive place to train whatever your current fitness level is and whatever your goals might be. I find that all the trainers are always friendly, enthusiastic and encourage me to push myself in both a personal training sessions and the group classes I attend. Always different and always fun. Definitley come along and see for yourself. Everyone is welcome.
Thanks so much for the great review and lovely words Sue, they mean so much. Glad you enjoy training here at Eley fitness :)
Fantastic experience: This gym is like no other. It is often full of laughing sweaty people who all enjoy a good session of high level training with burpees thrown in. Honestly I was not one who wanted to ever go to the gym being on the "larger" side. I feared it would be full of muscled men and toned ladies who would all judge and stare as this beached whale walked in. I was wrong! The trainers, unlike most gyms, tailored the training to suit my rather interesting needs (nothing like dislocating mid training session) so I could maximise my workouts. Although at first I scared them half to death with the odd joint popping out they soon got used to it and settled into burpeeing me out. Now I have shed stones and gained more than just confidence and fitness. I have gained an amazing training partner who has become my closest friend and I have widened my circle of friends which has made those harder times easier to face. When I've had a tough day there is nothing like going to the gym and meeting up with my friends to work it out. As for the PT instructors... if you want someone with limited personalities and no sense of humour then go to the franchised gyms because here you get a friendly personal experience and even better your stomache won't just hurt from all those crunches but also from laughing too! What makes this gym so good is that they care!
Thanks so much for the lovely feedback and kind words Emma! We are so pleased you’ve found the love for training and to hear it’s benefited the way it has for you is amazing :)
Fantastic experience: Exercise has never been so much fun...!!!! The classes are well structured and varied. I haven’t done two classes that are the same so no boring repetitive stuff. All the trainers are extremely knowledgeable and always on hand for support and advice. Whatever your training needs, whether it’s for an upcoming event, toning & weight loss or just to maintain a good level of fitness and wellbeing then Eley fitness comes highly recommended. I’ve met so many lovely people, of all ages and abilities that absolutely smash the group classes and have so much fun. Loads of classes to choose from to fit in with the work/home life balance. Well done team Eley Keep up the great work
Thanks so much for this review Debbie it’s great to know each session that we carefully plan is enjoyed so much.Thanks for the great feedback :)
Fantastic experience: I couldn’t speak higher of Eley Fitness, I have been going now for more than 2 years. I joined on a friend’s recommendation who’s also still a member. It’s a fantastic atmosphere and a pleasure to go which is something I wouldn’t say about a normal gym. Ed and Tori structure the exercises specific to individuals needs. I have a bad knee and am still able to attend and get the most out of the classes. If I had to pick the best trainer it would hands down be Tori....only joking Ed. Or am I?? But seriously both amazing.
thanks so much for this review, the words mean a lot (to some more than others )
Fantastic experience: I started training at Eley Fitness in 2016 when I moved to Bakewell. Now I can’t imagine not being able to train with the trainers there. Whether you go to a evening class or small group PT or 1:1, I have given all 3 a go , the trainers make it fun and push you at the same time whilst making sure you do your exercises correctly to avoid injuries. Whether you’re really athletic or need to start at the basics (like I did) it’s a great place to get fit or stay fit. Another plus is the location since parking in and around Bakewell can be quite hard it’s great Eley Fitness has parking places available.
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review Marry, the feedback is greatly appreciated and it’s so nice to hear you enjoy training here :)
Fantastic experience: A friend of mine and I train together & it's been so much fun. The gym is more intimate than any other I've gone to with a fantastic atmosphere. We're pushed to our own capabilities & when you're in your 60's, to be made to feel like you're no different to the younger ones training near you is something very special. The advice given on how we should eat was invaluable & l lost 1 stone in a few weeks without it even being a 'diet', it's now a lifestyle change & I'll never go back to the way l used to eat. I feel (& have been told) that I look younger and less "matronly" LOVE IT ❤️
Hi Shelley, thanks so much for this lovely review and great words and so proud of your journey and pleased to hear you receive well deserved compliments!
Fantastic experience: Into my second year with Eley fitness and I love it as much as the first day I started. There is a variety of classes which are full of people of all abilities and ages. Ed and Torie the owners and their staff encourage each and every one of us to do our best and keep helping us improve on fitness and technique. Every class is different I haven’t done the same class twice ever and the music keeps changing...in other gyms I have found it very repetitive and boring. I’ve been so happy since joining here and would recommend it to anyone to give it a try. Liz Antliff

Fantastic experience: Fantastic place to train and laugh and cry this place really cares about YOU would not be where I am today without them
Thanks so much for the great feedback, it means so much to us :)
Fantastic experience: The atmosphere, ed & staff are amazing, gym area & changing rooms are spotless, I would go every day if I could afford it!
Hi Rachel, thank you so much for your kind words. The place wouldn't be the same without people like yourself in it :)
Fantastic experience: Started with Ed 3 weeks ago and this man has changed my life and I can't thank him enough already!!!! My training was terrible, diet was even worse... constantly feeling a lack of energy and by far the worst problem was the way I viewed my body image... it depressed me to be point I wouldn't go shopping or out to public places.... so 3 weeks in and I've weighed in this morning for a 7.5kg loss in weight, but more importantly for me, I'm writing this, having just got out the pool in my hotel in Cyprus, better things to be up to on holiday I know, but I felt I needed to thank him, because If it wasn't for him and the transformation he has helped me with, I would be sat under an umbrella with a vest on, trying to hide from the world, instead I'm enjoying the sun and feeling good about myself.

Thanks so much for the great review, it means so much. We are so proud of what you have achieved... keep it up :)
