Elevate98

Fantastic experience: Great wee gym with friendly trainers who really know their stuff. There are loads of bespoke classes on during the day, with plenty on before and after work. Just a great place to work out: don't be put off by the price, it's honestly worth every penny!

Fantastic experience: Great place to train for both those new to the gym and experienced gym goers. Classes are enjoyable and designed to ensure you are making progress and reaching your goals. Instructors are welcoming, friendly and knowledgable, ensuring you are using the correct technique and pushing you on - they are also always happy to customise/change exercises during the class if there are any concerns with any previous or ongoing injuries making it a more bespoke experience rather than a ‘set in stone’ class - I’ve had previous issues with my back and achilles so have always been offered alternative's without being made to feel I’m being awkward or a pain. Can highly recommend elevate98

Fantastic experience: Absolutely top notch experience every single session at the gym. Staff are so friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of Elevate since the beginning of September having trialled the 28 day experience and I absolutely love it. I've never enjoyed traditional gyms and always felt a bit lost, never getting anywhere. The sessions at Elevate are so fun, run by very friendly and knowledgeable coaches and I'm seeing huge results in all areas of my life. I have a chronic pain condition and have found in the past I wasted so much money in cancellation fees if I'm not well on the day. Elevate is flexible and I even feel comfortable going when feeling crap because I can go at my own pace for how I'm feeling - such a game changer! It's always good craic

Fantastic experience: Excellent facility with genuinely amiable and professional coaches. As a gym beginner I felt welcome and at ease from day one. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym 8 weeks ago and it's been the best decision. I used to go to the gym unmotivated and not that frequently. The knowledgeable and super friendly environment and coaches has made this hands down the best gym and experience. I now look forward to going and feel better all round. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: This is only gym I’ve ever been able to be consistent with and actually look forward to going to. The atmosphere is so friendly and welcoming and the small group PT sessions mean you get great quality tailored coaching in a sociable and motivational setting. Absolutely worth every penny!

Fantastic experience: I have done sports only occasionally through my life and none in the last few years. When Elevate98 moved to their new premises they didn’t know they were going to change my life for the better. I went for a first interview with Sean and from that first moment I knew this place was what I had been looking for: Professionalism, kindness and flexibility They genuinely care that you keep motivated and that you do not sit on your laurels. The workouts are very well organised. They are hard sometimes but always according to your own limitations - and that together with some chat and laughs is all you want! In addition, they always come with new ideas, monthly events and the weekly newsletter from Sean. Thank you Team: Sean, Begbie, Sarah, Caroline, Sam 1 and Sam 2

Fantastic experience: Training three days a week with them for over a year now. Great ambience, support and activity. I couldn't ask for more!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic facility with a wide range of equipment to suit almost any style of training. Big enough to train freely but small enough to feel homely. But fancy stuff and square footage is a must for a good gym. It's the team behind it that make it a great one. Sean is an exemplary coach who understands the "training" is always secondary to the "personal". His drive to constantly improve is infectious yet it's his clear passion for helping real everyday people, be it his clients or his staff, that makes him such an effect and successful fitness professional. Could recommend more highly. Jason

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this place. Hands down the best gym I have ever been to and it's absolutely value for money because I go so regularly and am always motivated to go. They do small group PT (SGPT) maximum of 4 people per group where the workout is tailored to your goals, areas for development and any injuries you might have as well as level of fitness, pushing you where you need it. They also do a range of classes which again, are small enough for you to get the attention you need to push you. It's such a friendly place, the coaches are all amazing and bring something unique and the members are all really friendly too. Lots of social events and opportunities to enter competitions with teams (if that's your thing).

Fantastic experience: Great facilities, in a great location with parking and top drawer coaches at the club to keep you right. If you’re looking for a gym that keeps you accountable, motivated and on track to achieve your goals - this is the place. Cheers everyone involved for creating this space.

Fantastic experience: This is - hands down - the best gym I’ve ever been to. As someone who had a bit of gym anxiety, the way they work here has made me feel so at ease and helped me feel much more confident as I work through my fitness journey. The coaches are fantastic and really make every session accessible to everyone, making changes to meet your level of fitness and strength. The community is also incredibly supportive. Joining Elevate98 has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. I would (and do) recommend this to everyone!

Fantastic experience: I have been with Elevate98 for about 18 months now. The trainers are top-notch, the classes are diverse, and they have a great range of weights and equipment. I particularly enjoy the small group personal training sessions—they really focus on improving technique. I've felt a marked improvement in my level of fitness and confidence since I joined. I'd definitely recommend to anyone looking for a tailored group training gym.

Fantastic experience: I honestly can't rate this gym highly enough. I was far from a regular gym goer and never thought I'd ever really feel comfortable in a gym. I'm now there often 5 days a week. Everyone is lovely and welcoming. Every coach is really knowledgeable, friendly and kind. My muscle mass is building and I'm so proud of all the new skills I'm learning.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Elevate98. I have been a member of a few gyms over the years but found it hard to keep the motivation going, struggled to find classes I like or really enjoy the overall experience. The coaches here are fantastic and the training sessions are excellent. I truly wish I had found Elevate98 earlier!

Fantastic experience: One of the happiest and nicest gym I’ve been to ! The trainers are so good at what they do and are very supportive. Absolutely love the place :)

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend more this gym!!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this gym to anyone! Amazing coaching gym, always hated going to the gym but since joining Elevate9.8 i now love the gym and go most days. Great friendly place where everyone says hi, and it’s a great community to make new friends. Couches are great, know what they are doing and adapt workout to accommodate your personal challenges.

Fantastic experience: It's the place to be for training. More than a gym!! Super professional staff, very friendly and always with a smile. The atmosphere is fantastic! All the classes are amazing and the small group PT very targated to our needs with great and imidiate results! First time in my life I look forward to go to the gym! I totally recommend it to everyone!

Fantastic experience: Previously a slave to commercial gyms, I didn't quite realise just how much I dreaded going until I started here at Elevate 98. The thought of heading into a gym solo with my head down and my music up was not giving me any motivation. Now I actually look forward to my sessions! To be able to workout in a totally safe space where there is zero judgement is a massive game changer and it makes such a difference knowing that you'll be greeted by friendly faces, even at 6am. The workouts and classes change frequently which means you never get bored and the coaches (and members) all do a brilliant job of creating a supportive and inclusive community environment. Run, jog or walk to Elevate 98 now!

Fantastic experience: Elevate is an amazing gym. I struggled for years to find a way of working out that I could stick with. Not only have I stuck with it, and am fitter and stronger, but I actually look forward to going to the gym now. The team are absolutely lovely, professional and make you feel welcome every time you come in. It is also a great community of people who make sessions fun and the time flies by. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Friendly gym, professional coach

Fantastic experience: Everything about Elevate is spot on. Fab coaches, a really welcoming gym environment with friendly members and a jam packed timetable with loads of classes to choose from every day. Love it!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, staff and atmosphere. Really friendly and the coaching is spot on and tailored, with a really welcome environment from the coaches and members.

Fantastic experience: Exceeded all my expectations, very fun & inclusive atmosphere, great community feel. The team is super knowledgeable, attentive & dedicated, couldn't recommend enough!

Fantastic experience: Easily the best investment I’ve ever made into my fitness and an easy 5 stars! Apart from the improvement in my fitness, the community and atmosphere at the gym is fantastic, and all the credit should go to the coaches for setting that up!

Fantastic experience: Being a member in Elevate98 was one of my best decisions. This is not only a gym where you try to achieve your fitness goals, but also a hub and a friendly community. How do I know this? Because I have been a member here for last two years. I know that Sean loves to bring out positivity from his peers and gym members, Begbie loves to learn about the history of World War II, Mikey loves seafood and Capesy loves Elvis Priestley. I know this through achieving 60 kilos barbell squats, 70 kilos deadlifts and hip thrusts, 27 kilos shoulder press and may be a little over 20 kilos chest press. These awesome trainers push you to your best through laughs, daily lives conversation and most importantly you will get to know diverse eating places around Edinburgh. That’s true, they will make you work hard by talking about burgers, kebabs and Chinese food! But I can assure you wouldn’t regret a single bit. At Elevate98, I enjoyed, I worked hard, and I learnt I can be strong both mentally and physically. If you’re trying to achieve your fitness goal, this is the gym for you. Hats off to these young lads by achieving so much at such young age. You guys are the best. Will miss Elevate98.

Fantastic experience: A friendly and professional team who make every visit hassle free, effective and motivational. A great atmosphere in a very well kept and equipped facility. The care, energy and thought that goes into the running of the place is evident. Good value for money. A gym that delivers beyond a service or experience to a truly transformative offering.

Fantastic experience: After being a member of another gym for a few years and then falling off the wagon, I came across Elevate98 and decided to see what it was about. I was a bit hesitant about joining another gym but after speaking to Sean I decided to give it a go, and I am glad I did. The coaches have created a great atmosphere where it’s supportive of all levels, fun and enjoyable with a mixture of great classes and small group PT. They have created a great community that extends beyond just your session at the gym with continued support and encouragement in achieving your goals.

Fantastic experience: Over years of investing in gyms, equipment, PTs, online programmes and other gym or health relared things, joining Elevate has by far been the best investment I've made in my health. The classes are amazing and always changing so you dont get bored of doing the same workout over and over, the coaches are wonderful and create a super supportive and inclusive environment for you, and the whole structure of a small, community-focused gym means you get much more out of it than just a workout. When you come for a session, it's like you totally escape reality for a little bit and reset your day :) 13/10 would recommend

Fantastic experience: The 5 stars say it all. Expert knowledge used to provide tailored training with masses of positivity to keep you going.

Fantastic experience: Made me enjoy the gym again after a long time away. Wouldn’t go anywhere else

Fantastic experience: Great vibe, very knowledgeable staff and great equipment.

Fantastic experience: Unbelievable group of PT’s that have created a brilliant community - everyone is welcomed with open arms. The attention to detail is second to none and everyone is willing to help regardless of your goals or fitness levels. Best of the best!

Fantastic experience: The best fitness experience I've had in my life so far. Staff very knowledgeable, clean facilities, members are friendly. Couldn't be happier with this choice

Fantastic experience: Great gym with a great team of PTs. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to start a fitness journey or progress the one they’re on!!

Fantastic experience: Great team and friendly environment. It's clear they have made it welcome for those of all fitness backgrounds looking to get into shape :)

Fantastic experience: More than a gym. Friends, community, like minded, learning, nutrition, fitness, fun. Couldn’t recommend more.

Fantastic experience: I’m so happy that I found this gym. Having been to commercial gyms for a couple of years with a programme only PT, I found that I was getting pretty bored of just going through the motions of going to the gym alone. Now I can honestly say that a) the gym is never boring and b) I always look forward to it and never feel like I’m dragging myself out of bed to go. The small group PT sessions are great for building strength and getting properly coached on what to do. Each one I’ve been to has been different so it doesn’t get boring. There is also a huge amount of classes and definitely something to fit everyone’s schedule and interests, be that building strength or pure cardio. On top of that the coaches and members are all incredibly friendly and there is a genuine community feel. Could not recommend more!

Fantastic experience: The best gym I’ve ever joined!! Run by such a dedicated bunch that really go the extra mile for their members. The attention to detail in their programme planning and how the gym runs is second to none, would recommend to anyone whether they’re experienced or totally new to fitness.

Fantastic experience: I've moved around over the years through work and, in the process, attended every type of gym - from commercial to old-school. Elevate 98 is, hands down, the best I've ever come across. It's hard to do the place justice. I'd encourage anyone in the Edinburgh area to give it a go. First and foremost, it's a community. Every gym makes that claim. Elevate 98 lives up to it. It doesn't matter what time you turn up, or what type of class you attend. You're guaranteed to find a friendly face. The programme of classes caters for everyone - with plenty of variety. It's clear a lot of work goes in to putting it together and, despite the group format, every session is somehow still tailored for the individual. The facility itself is first class, with every bit of modern, functional equipment that you'd expect. This place opened during the pandemic, with a small, dedicated group of young staff leading the way. What they've managed to achieve is really special.

Fantastic experience: You just won't find a facility in the areas that will give you the value that you'll get from Elevate. Sean and the guys aren't gonna treat you as a statistic, and they work incredibly hard to break the normal attitude. You're a member of their gym, and they'll do everything they can do to accommodate you and get the best out of you. I did my level 3 PT here and the facility and staff are bang on. Mint ✌️

Fantastic experience: Im 2 weeks into the 90 days of elevation and the only regret I have is that i didn't do it sooner!!! All the trainers are friendly, supportive and most importantly super knowledgable. Every fitness level is supported and there is a real feeling of community. There is top tier equipment and lots of different classes available to suit everyones needs and wants. I cant see me going back to a regular/commercial gym.

Fantastic experience: I'm really glad I took the plunge and did the 28 day trial. I have never felt this motivated to attend a gym. Dare I say it, I actually enjoy going now. Fantastic gym with a great atmosphere and supportive and friendly coaches. Each small group PT session is varied and tailored to you. A variety of classes available with a variety of times too. The team will help you achieve your goals and encourage you when needed.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, top team! Couldn’t recommend them more.

Fantastic experience: Sean and the team are amazing. Will be coming back anytime I’m in Scotland!

Fantastic experience: Cracking gym with really friendly and knowledgeable staff and a real sense of a fitness community...get involved

Fantastic experience: I’ve had a great experience here. Push you while being supportive. Distract you while your working hard. Great community. knowledgable on all things health related. Opportunity for group events like nights out. It’s really help me get back into a regular routine of fitness.

Fantastic experience: Sean and the team have built something incredibly unique for Edinburgh. This gym was a huge help for me to get through Covid, as their positivity and creativity with new initiatives always kept me going. It's a great environment to learn new workouts, tips on nutrition, and just connect with a bunch of fun people who are all trying to improve.

Fantastic experience: A gym with a difference. Excellent PT sessions, knowledgeable staff, spotless gym, & every session is unique & different, but still challenging. I really admire everything Elevate 98 stands for, & would recommend this to both Male & Female of all ages.

Fantastic experience: Let me start by saying - I HATE GYMS. Now, I can say I hate all gyms, apart from one - Elevate98. In truth, I was dragged along and I was sceptical of the hype. Now, I am getting up in darkness for 6am classes of my own accord, going 4/5 times per week and absolutely loving it. I am a fully converted Hype Man! Sean and his team have created a fantastic environment for people of all fitness abilities. The small group PT is a great way to introduce or reintroduce yourself into gym work. The PTs are attentive, tailoring the workouts to each member, taking into account ability, weaknesses, injuries etc, but you'd never know and there's no apprehension of matching what other people are doing in the group. The other classes feel like team sport which gives the place a real buzz and makes them addictive! The PTs are engaging and take a genuine interest in their members. The members are super encouraging. There are no egos and it feels like everyone is on the same page. This is not a gym for those who want to stand at equipment and take selfies. It is a social community to have fun in - getting fitter feels like an added bonus!

Fantastic experience: I joined elevate98 during lockdown and doing the zooms. From that I gained a lot of confidence for going into the gym. Being in the gym has benefited my mental and physical help. The community the Sean and team have created is unreal. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Very professional gym with a welcoming/warming atmosphere. Don’t feel like I’m at the gym when there, feel as though I’m with friends. Always enjoy my workouts, whether one a 1:1 level or in a group session. Each session is tailored to suit you and your needs which is very rare to come by.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! Sean and his team are very professional, motivational and fun. I’ve been a member for a year and have found that there’s always new classes and new challenges to keep me interested and motivated. Highly recommend the 30 day trial. Celia

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Elevate 98!! A very welcoming gym with professional/friendly coaches who make the training fun and enjoyable. Sean and his team + all the members make it a great atmosphere to work out in which is no way intimidating at all. 5 stars all round!

Fantastic experience: Elevate98 is an absolutely fantastic gym. All the trainers there really know their stuff and create a fantastic atmosphere in the gym to make everyone feel welcome. If I had not moved to France I would for sure still be going there!

Fantastic experience: Before I even stepped foot in this gym for the first time, I knew I would love it. The small group PTs, the variety of classes, and the large range of class times to suit everyone - every aspect is amazing. I have only been a member for 2 months, but cannot imagine going back to training alone in a public gym. Elevate98 is such a social hub and all the members and coaches are so friendly and welcoming. I couldn't recommend enough to anyone looking to enhance their strength and fitness whilst meeting new people along the way.

Fantastic experience: Never expected that I would love the gym as much as I do at Elevate. The coaches and members make it the best vibe and atmosphere I’ve ever had in a gym - it’s like our own wee community. It’s great to go into a gym and now see/speak to people on a friendship level. All coaches are professional, knowledgable and help workouts be enjoyable. The group classes are a perfect way of training as you are always motivated by everyone else to push yourself. Would recommend to anybody.

Fantastic experience: Elevate98 is the best gyms in Edinburgh and brings such a welcoming and enjoyable experience to exercising!! This is done by the the offering of Small Group Personal Training sessions, as well as a number of separate classes to suit individual needs, no matter what level of fitness you are at - all of which has you leaving feeling accomplished. As if this wasn’t enough, it is topped off by not only the sociability of all members but the fantastic way the gym is run by the members of staff, of which cannot do enough enough for each individual that walks through the doors of Elevate98 - no gym compares!!

Fantastic experience: I never liked going to the gym until i joined Elevate98. The atmosphere they have created is amazing and really is so welcoming. I never expected to be someone who enjoyed working out, but Elevate98 has changed that. I think it's largely down to the coaches, who are fantastic, and the set up of the classes and training sessions.

Fantastic experience: Elevate98 is unique with an atmosphere and social element that I have never experienced in any other gym or gym class environment. The variety of classes and quality (serious sweat in just 30 mins during short classes!) is great and the genuine interest that the PTs take not just in their member's fitness journeys but also their general wellbeing is something special. Highly Recommend.

Fantastic experience: Having had a a love/hate relationship with commercial gyms, I really struggled to find a habit & routine with my workouts which always led to frustration. Sean introduced me to Elevate98 a year ago and it's the first year in my life I have consistently trained several times a week. It's no exaggeration when I say Elevate98 has changed my life. The team are brilliant, the other gym goers are a pleasure to be around & all the workouts are well planned and thought out. Here's to many more years.

Fantastic experience: Elevate98 is a fantastic gym for everyone from absolute beginners to experienced gym goers. Sean and team have created a welcoming and supportive environment while always motivating members to push further. Elevate98 have a wide choice of classes and PT sessions that run from 6am - 8pm. The timings have been great for me to allow me to fit the gym into my current work/life schedule as there is always an option. All classes and sessions are booked online which makes the process of signing up / changing plans easy. Fully recommend this gym to anyone looking to elevate their fitness in Edinburgh

Fantastic experience: Elevate98 is a fantastic gym if you are looking for friendly, professional coaches, a fantastic community and top class equipment. The small PT classes are great as the coaches tailor your programme accordingly to your ability and they really motivate you during one of their Hybrid or Engine classes. The photos are deceiving as it looks small, but it’s actually really big and they have all the latest equipment (you won’t find a tidier gym!) Highly recommend if you are looking for that extra motivation to get your fitness up!

Fantastic experience: Tired of feeling uncomfortable in "classic" gyms, I turned to Elevate98 and, for sure, it is a gym like no other. The personal training in small groups is effective and the great atmosphere is always there. The coaches are attentive and know how to put you at ease from the very first session. I 100% recommend the 30 days trial which gives you the chance to try classes and PT. I didn't think I would ever like to work out, but that changed in a month. As an expat, it is important to find a "home away from home" where you feel comfortable and part of a community, this is exactly what Elevate98 did for me The motivation is always there and when you walk through the door, you are greeted by smiling faces and it feels like you're in a great group of friends who get together to work out

Fantastic experience: Elevate 98 is a fantastic gym. It’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made when it comes to my health and fitness. Such a brilliant community of coaches and people that makes training so fun. For the first time in a long time I actually look forward to going to the gym and I have noticed a huge difference in my strength and fitness levels after just 3 months. Workouts are always fun and varied and tailored to your fitness level. Highly recommend it for anyone thinking of joining!

Fantastic experience: Recently joined this gym, been amazing so far. Coaches really take time to ensure you are comfortable and technique is correct. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Sean and team are fantastic - so are the other gym goers - a great atmosphere which is in no way intimidating.

Fantastic experience: Nothing but good things to say about Elevate98 and all of the staff there. It's the most I've ever consistently worked out and that's solely down to Sean and his team! From the personalised small group PT sessions to cardio, strength and HIIT based workouts there is a variety of workouts that keep everyone motivated and looking forward to the next session! Can't recommend Elevate98 highly enough. Above all else, it's a really friendly and welcoming place to come and work out

Fantastic experience: Elivate 98 is an awesome gym specialising in small group p/t . The gym is super friendly and all coaches and members make you feel so welcome. All sessions are well varied, thought out and tailored to all levels of fitness . Cannot recommend highly enough !

Fantastic experience: Elevate 98 is a fab new gym which is personable, friendly and welcoming. Lots of top quality equipment and space, and Sean (and his team) are so knowledgable they guide you all the way and make you feel completely at ease. I would definitely recommend you try it. Elevate98.co.uk

Fantastic experience: Since my previous review, the gym has grown from strength to strength. New classes implemented, new layout and extra one to one support on eating habits has been really good. A fantastic atmosphere and continued support helping me to achieve my goals.

Fantastic experience: I took a 30 day trial here recently and am loving it so far. Love the idea of small group PT, really works for me, as someone who can struggle with motivation to go to a conventional gym on my own. You can tell how passionate Sean is about fitness right away, and he's a great trainer. The gym is totally unintimidating compared to other places. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Can't recommend this gym enough! They have a great mix of Small Group Personal Training sessions, as well as a variety of different classes. There's something for everyone. The classes and SGPT sessions themselves are always enjoyable, but challenging. The best part of the gym is that it feels like a community - it's not simply a place to go and exercise, and achieve the results you are looking for, but it is a place you can go and socialise while working out, and genuinely enjoy yourselves. The coaches make everyone feel so welcome, regardless of ability or fitness level, and it feels like a "team" as much as it does a gym. The coaches go the extra mile to give the sessions a personal vibe, and take the time to get to know you as a person, which in turn aids your fitness journey. In addition, the facilities are excellent, with everything you need in a great location.

Fantastic experience: I have been attending Elevate 98 for the past 6 months and it is by far the best gym I have ever been to. Everything about the classes, staff and the gym itself instantly clicked and made me start enjoying going. Would definitely recommend to others!

Fantastic experience: I’ve known Sean for a few years doing PT with him previously, so when I heard he was opening up his own gym and doing PT I took the chance. Before a 30 day trial I was already 5 sessions deep, and felt myself improving and feeling better each time. Sean not only finds your limits but pushes you to reach your goals and helps you step in the right direction to aim for your goals. The equipment is top class and the staff are also brilliant. He’s a great trainer and a great guy. And for the price of the month trial, it’s definitely worth it.

Fantastic experience: Really friendly coaches at Elevate98. Sean has really kitted this gym out to the Max! This gym provided you with all the support and guidance you need. Small group PT sessions which allows you to really focus on technique and learn the fundamentals of each exercise.

Fantastic experience: Great gym who go out their way to offer everything you need. Classes are addictive ! Coaches are very friendly and are constantly working hard to evolve their practice. Members are all really friendly and it’s a good sociable environment . They make it fun to work out .

Fantastic experience: I stumbled across Elevate98 after someone in a Facebook group asked for local gym recommendations and I'm so glad I did! I've tried quite a few different small group PT sessions in Edinburgh and can say hand on heart, that this is the best one I've found! From the knowledgeable trainers and friendly atmosphere, to the extensive class options and reasonable pricing, Elevate98 really is a breath of fresh air in Edinburgh's gym scene. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Elevate 98 is the best experience I have ever had. A brilliant atmosphere, personable and knowledgeable coaches. Workouts are tailored to what you want to achieve. Group classes help you push yourself further and the environment makes going to the gym fun rather than something which many see as a chore. The best gym in Edinburgh? Yes. The world? Quite possibly.
