Genesis Personal Training: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Genesis and Chris were recommended to me by a neighbour more than 5 years ago and at first I was sceptical, as I've never been a gym person or really exercised much at all. Working with Chris completely changed my attitude and as a result I am still going strong. The atmosphere is so friendly and supportive and Chris knows exactly how to encourage and motivate whilst keeping the sessions fun. He has even got me into boxing, which I now absolutely love! Chris has also trained my daughters and they adore him too. I can't recommend Genesis highly enough.
Fantastic experience: Chris Davies and team are exceptional at understanding your needs and building a bespoke training programme which combines strength, mobility and stability training. A god send. Thanks.
Fantastic experience: I cannot express enough how incredible my experience has been with Chris as my personal fitness trainer for the past five years. Chris isn't just a trainer; he's become a friend and a source of unwavering support. From day one, Chris has shown a remarkable level of dedication and expertise. His passion for fitness is contagious, and his commitment to helping his clients achieve their goals is truly inspiring. Chris takes the time to understand each individual's needs and tailors his training sessions accordingly, ensuring that every workout is both challenging and rewarding. What sets Chris apart is his ability to motivate and encourage without ever making you feel inadequate. He pushes you to your limits while always keeping your safety and well-being in mind. His positivity and encouragement have been instrumental in helping me reach big milestones and personal bests. Beyond his technical skills as a trainer, Chris's genuine care and support make all the difference. When I snapped my Achilles tendon, had to train through lockdown or if I was dealing with any challenging work or personal issues, he's always been on hand offering guidance, encouragement, and a listening ear whenever I've needed it. Working with Chris has not only improved my physical health but has also had a profoundly positive impact on my mental and emotional well-being. In addition to being an exceptional trainer, Chris is just an all-around fantastic person. His warmth, sense of humor, and genuine interest in his clients' lives make every session feel like catching up with an old friend. If you're looking for a personal trainer who will not only help you achieve your fitness goals but also become a supportive ally on your journey, look no further than Chris. He's simply the best in the business, and I feel incredibly grateful to have him in my corner.
Fantastic experience: Genesis and Chris have been life changing. As a new mother trying to find the motivation and confidence to get back into a healthy fitness routine, finding the right trainer and space was key. I hit the jackpot with Chris. He is so clearly passionate about what he does and helping his clients achieve their individual goals. There is thought put into each session to not only make it a challenging and productive work out but also fun and engaging. I’m only one year in and I’ve never felt stronger. As a working mother, any free time is so precious and yet I look forward to my two sessions every week. I highly recommend Genesis to anyone looking to up their fitness routine, no matter what stage of the journey they’re on.
Fantastic experience: Totally rate Genesis and Chris in particular - my sessions are productive, kept interesting and fun!
Fantastic experience: My family have been training with Genesis for over 10 years and every session has been different and engaging. Great thought is given to providing a varied experience that builds towards your goals. Chris our PT has become a close friend and Genesis is in many respects an extended family.
Fantastic experience: Genesis is more than a personal training team, they are like family. My family have been training with them for over 10 years and every session is unique and keeps all of us fit and healthy. They were so versatile during lockdown and tailor sessions when required like the rehab sessions after my ski accident etc. I look forward to the sessions as it is more than a training session.
Thanks for the nice review Samina.
Fantastic experience: Training with Chris at Genesis has been an amazing journey over the last year! With underlying health issues I was nervous to begin training but he has worked with me so carefully to build back up my strength and health that has given me back a good quality of life. Conscientious, constantly asking how my body is feeling, checking in frequently to see how my energy levels and progression are going. I really couldn’t recommend this company enough.
Fantastic experience: 5 Star service! Dan has been very helpful to myself and came highly recommended via friends. Well worth the visit. John Horton
Fantastic experience: Fantastic friendly crew, great equipment and a lovely light space to work out in. Lots of thoughtful touches that you rarely see in other places.
Thanks for your review Andrew. It's been a privilege having you as a customer at Genesis for many years now.
Fantastic experience: My trainer, Sol, is amazing. Learning so much!
Thanks Leila. We're super pleased you're enjoying your training at Genesis!
Fantastic experience: Great service and very effective. They really care about you and your well being. The app they use it is very good and help you track your progress and successes. The diet based on macro i was given in combination with targetted exercise resulted to be very effective. Overall very happy
Thanks very much for your kind review. We're glad you took advantage of the digital fitness concierge service, and achieved some great results, well done!
Fantastic experience: Just reopened. Gym separated into personal pods to keep COVID-19 secure
Fantastic experience: This place is fantastic. If you do come by Chris is the one to see. He is the man a very fit one (not in a gay way).
We're very grateful for your kind review. Chris is indeed a very fit man!
Fantastic experience: This is Genesis massage. Go to Genesis website for details.
Fantastic experience: Great personal training, group exercise and treatment room.

Fantastic experience: Hidden gem in Shepard's bush for Personal Training and Sports Therapy. If your looking for top quality PT in West London you have to try out genesis. The PTs will work with you to develop plans to work towards your goals.
Thanks for your kind review. It’s great having you here both for personal training and sports therapy. We’re proud to help you achieve your big goals!
Fantastic experience: I provide life coaching sessions here, very nice environment, friendly and professional staff, great equipment and well knowledged
Thanks Sammie! We're so pleased to have you with us, and that you are able to offer your lifecoaching sessions at Genesis.
Fantastic experience: I found Genesis when I was looking for individual personal training sessions. I have never been a sporty person but wanted to get healthier. I used gyms before, but I kept on hurting myself – I twisted my ankle and did my neck trying to keep up with gym classes! A physiotherapist advised me to have individual training sessions to strengthen parts of my body so that I could exercise more regularly. I contacted Dan at Genesis and gave him specific details of what I was looking for and what style of training would suit me. He is very very good at choosing the right trainer for the right individual. That was in 2012 and I’ve been going for a weekly training since then. I exercise regularly on my own as well – my trainer has tailored a programme for me. Genesis has a number of specialists e.g. running coaches and also offer physiotherapists, sport massage treatments and osteopathy that I have used in the past. I find everyone there is of a very high standard.
Fantastic experience: I just wanted to share my feedback on my overall experience since I discovered Genesis Mind and Body. My first ever class was with Chris. I was completely new to not only boxing but sadly exercising as a whole. I came into the class blind not knowing what to expect and I can’t speak highly enough of what the classes have since done to me both physically and mentally because of the passion and drive that Chris delivers to us in the classes. Yesterday I did a class with Alejandro which focused on legs/bums/tums. I believe he was covering the class and again the level of professionalism as well as knowledge delivered by him was fantastic. Although I felt it the next day, it was pain I knew I needed and expected because of the pace he put us through. It’s not often I send feedback and when I do it’s whole heartedly. Overall I can’t fault anything from the cleanliness to the team spirit. It’s almost like an extended family. Thank you.
Many thanks Dalia. It’s been fantastic to see your development and how far you’ve come in a relatively short space of time. We’re glad you found us, but all power to you!
Fantastic experience: Love my Personal Training gym! What a great space to work out in, and with great music to boot! Whoever put together the playlists will get all my points, definitely. This personal training space has everything you need to work out, hard or light, a sophisticated water fountain (think it can do sparkling water too, but haven't tried yet), good facilities but first and foremost, a great atmosphere, friendly, professional coaches and staff working there. Love it!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Genesis for 2 years and have thoroughly enjoyed it. Dan and Victoria have been amazing in adapting the workouts to match my needs and wishes. Even when you go in after a tiring day you always end up leaving energetic and with a smile on your face. Thanks Dan and Victoria!
Thank-you Teele. It's been such a pleasure working with you, and so much fun! Our very best to you, the Genesis Team
Fantastic experience: I joined Genesis body transformation program for a few months and I trained with Henry for a few months. The quality, knowledge and fun that I had during those months was a big part of the success that I achieved. I managed to lose 45 pounds over the first 4-5 months... And thanks to the knowledge that I got I've managed to lose 88 pounds in total. Thanx very much for your help. It's been invaluable
Thanks Nadir. You did an absolutely incredible job. We've been proud to be a part of your transformation. Congratulations on your unbelievable weight loss!!
Fantastic experience: Genesis has been a part of my life for nearly four years now. I say it’s been a part of my life, rather than I’ve been a customer, because the relationship I have with the people there goes way beyond the usual business to client dynamic. I’d describe Dan, Chris and Loic as friends who care about me as a person as well as my physical well being. When I first went to Genesis I was a flabby, out of shape middle aged guy who was desperate to feel fit and healthy again. Dan, the owner of Genesis, quickly worked out who would be a good match for my needs and paired me with Chris. Not only did Dan match me to Chris because he could help deliver the physical results I wanted but he also matched me to Chris because our personalities were a good fit. This is typical of the tailored approach you see at Genesis and it means the relationship becomes so much deeper. Chris is a brilliant personal trainer. He listens to what you want to achieve and builds individual programmes suitable for hitting your targets. Chris is an expert in the field of natural body building, being a National Competitor, and has first class technical knowledge. He can also support with nutritional advice, which is essential if you are to get the physical changes you require. Most importantly though is his friendly positive attitude. This means he pushes you hard to achieve the results you want but you feel supported and cared for. This is a unique skill. There are other services offered by Genesis including massage therapy. Loic is by far and away the best therapist I have experienced and can provide a wide variety of services including acupuncture. Like the other members of the team at Genesis, he is friendly, personable and really cares about me and how I’m feeling. Genesis is a fantastic small business, with a fantastic culture.Dan and the team should be extremely proud of the business they have built over the last few years. It really is training with a personal touch.
Fantastic experience: Feel hesitant writing this review. I've always considered Genesis one of the best kept secrets in Shepherds Bush. It's a real gem and I feel very lucky to have stumbled upon it. I'm currently training with Chris Davis, excellent trainer, intelligent and holistic approach to my fitness and body shape, I feel strong and look forward to our sessions. Loic is one of the best physios and all the other team members are fabulous. I love the daily message for inspiration. Just hope nobody reads my review and it stays a secret, very selfish I know. Deborah
Fantastic experience: Super relaxing, got my friend one to as a gift, we had such a great day and ended it with a little shopping spree at the Westfield. Great location!
Fantastic experience: A great masseuse! Super welcoming and had one of the best massages! Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Great massage therapist. Very knowledgable, exceeded all my expectations. would recommend
Fantastic experience: Amazing therapists. Best massage in town
Fantastic experience: amazing
Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend visiting sports therapist Loic for any aches and pains! I had a session with him this week for a lower back pain issue and he sourced the problem efficiently and made the experience very comfortable (I've never been to a sports therapist before). Very friendly staff and lovely tucked away studio in Shepherds Bush :)
Thanks Mickey. We really appreciate the kind words
Fantastic experience: I have been attending Genesis for a couple of years now for training (with Chris Davies) as well as physiotherapy treatment as and when required with (Loic Lefevre). Both are knowledgeable and enthusiastic and I would highly recommend their service!
Thanks Jonathan.
Fantastic experience: From someone who used to hate gyms..Genesis is a smaller private gym in the Shepherds Building near Brook Green/ Shepherds Bush. Really friendly staff , very flexible and none of the horrors of a large cavernous gym. Can do a whole range of things personal training, massage, various packages, they have also helped me with knee rehab after surgery. Dan and Chris who run it are great.
Fantastic experience: A very personable team of personal trainers, physiotherapists and massage therapists secreted away in the Shepherd's Building. I have experienced their classes (the Pilates Motr class was really interesting, engaging and Hard!), personal training and massage therapy and they are definitely recommended. Whether you need to get fitter or need some TLC from Loic the massage therapist, from my experience they are really interested in getting the best from you and helping you improve. It's nice to have an integrated gym-therapy system where you can get treatment or training from the same package as you choose.
Hello Drew D.Thanks for the kind words, you are making us blush.We are glad you are enjoying our services and you are welcome back anytime.Thanks.
Fantastic experience: For a year I had personal training with Chris Davies at Genesis Mind & Body. I am not a gym person and have no drive to exercise at all but each week I counted down to my next session! Chris made exercise fun (yet still hard!) and mixed it up with lots of different ways to keep fit. Introducing the boxing to my sessions was brilliant, if you haven't tried that I strongly recommend it. The only reason I no longer visit Genesis is because I moved away, otherwise I'd still be going no question! When you visit Genesis you get a real strong feeling of family. Everyone that works there is so friendly and welcoming, caring about your sessions and how you're getting on. Chris, Dan, Loic and the others are all really friendly and you can tell they really get on well with each other. The feeling in the studio is very relaxed yet still super professional. Loic seems to be a miracle worker with massages. For months I was suffering with severe back pain and even 8 weeks of intense physio didn't help. I headed back to Genesis for a sports massage with Loic and have not had one issue with my back since! I can't recommend this place enough. It's good for seasoned gym bunnies and newbies, very reasonably priced for a London studio and run by a great group of people.
Hello Jamie. Thanks for the very kind words. We are very glad you felt comfortable at Genesis. This type of atmosphere is exactly what we aim to provide for our clients : Relaxed, friendly and professional.You are welcome back anytime.
Fantastic experience: Great gym.
Thanks harvey
Fantastic experience: I visited the Genesis after injuring my arm in the gym. After a consultation and two treatment sessions (a mixture of massages, stretches and acupuncture) the arm improved greatly and I am now able to return to my weight training. Would highly recommend.
Thanks for the review James. We are glad you can finally get back to the gym.
Fantastic experience: Awesome gym. Ask for Fredrik Underhaug of Healthy and Fitter, no one better than him for low impact personal training. Highly recommend you book him for a free first session.
Thanks Adrian. Frederic is a very good personal trainer indeed. Glad to hear you liked the low impact training !
Fantastic experience: Since I workout 5/6 times a week, I have a sport massage from Loic Lefevre every Friday. He is great at finding all the knotted muscles and freeing them. I always walk away after the massage pain free and feeling great. I wonderful start to my weekend. I thoroughly recommend him.
Thanks for the kind words Mo.
Fantastic experience: I have seen Loic Lefevre, Sports Therapist, fairly regularly for last couple of years - not with any sporting injury but mostly due to sedentary job injuries! He really is magic! He is very intuitive and gets to nub of problem quickly with his great massage skills and use of acupuncture. I would thoroughly recommend a session with him when you are in need - you won't be disappointed.
Hello Phillipa. Thanks for the kind words. We are very happy to hear Loic helped you with your aches and pains.
Fantastic experience: I have been training with Dan at Genesis for several years and most recently also with Chris. Both are personable, friendly and above all excellent trainers who inspire and help their clients set and achieve their goals. Regardless of how long you have been training you will be challenged and encouraged to continue to improve your fitness. I can't recommend training at Genesis highly enough. If you're looking for a massage after a hard work out the Genesis in house massage therapist Loic is a great choice. Anna, the Genesis nutritionist provides excellent help and support if you need to get your diet under control - she has done wonders for mine!
