Fantastic experience: Went all the way from Norway to visit The Pit Gym and MMA for the first time, and I’ve never felt more welcomed at a gym. Would highly recommended the locals to visit the gym, get some PT by Nav and learning those real survival skills by Hydra Combatives Academy located at the same place. I will definitely come back again! These guys here at the gym are the real deal and they care about you!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of "The Pit" for over 3 years and I can honestly say that it is one of the best gyms I have ever been to. The staff are so friendly and make you feel wanted. They have more than enough equipment so you can get a great workout. And it is never that busy that you can't use what you want.

Hadthar Zafar 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Recently started at this gym, really happy with it so far. Nav works with you at your own pace. Motivates you and keeps you on track. Met some great people here, not just the staff but other gym users too. Everyone is friendly. It has that old school gym vibe which you don't get anymore. Even though it's a MMA gym there's no pressure or judgement for new users/beginners. They also run classes. The Pit is by far one of the more affordable gyms around. For a private gym their prices are quiet competitive. £25.00 per month or £5 for daily drop ins

Imran Ali 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Staff have amazing experience and skills. As a newbie I was quickly made to feel at home and supported throughout. I personally met people who The Pit Gym have helped loose weight and others to bulk up. Just go there and experience the vibe, each member has an amazing journey all helped by staff at The Pit.

Saqib Jahangir 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: There are only two MMA gyms locally. The Pit in Leyton and Blaze in Highams Park. The Pit is by far the better one. Prices are competitive, a lot more affordable than Blaze. The instructors are also better trained and more knowledgeable than Blaze. Opening hours and membership plan suit me really well. The trainers and instructors are well informed and friendly. They also offer some great classes.
