Fantastic experience: Joining Sanctuary is one of the best things that I have ever done. Physically and mentally it has been an absolute game-changer. The staff are incredibly supportive and treat you as a person, as opposed to just another gym member. There is a great social element and I have met some amazing people (members and staff). Each session is tailored for every level of ability and experience and they progress accordingly. I’ve been a member of Sanctuary for four and a half years and I genuinely couldn’t recommend it any higher!
Thank you for sharing your experiences, Andrew! We're thrilled to hear how positively Sanctuary has impacted your life, both physically and mentally. We value you and appreciate your long-term commitment to us. Can't wait to keep helping you achieve your goals.

Mixture of classes run by highly skilled coaches to help you achieve your goals, whether that’s in strength, endurance, general fitness, and most importantly, designed in a way you that have fun whilst training!!

We are pleased to know that you found our gym environment friendly and motivating. We're here to support you in everything! Your satisfaction is our top priority. Again, thank you for recommending us!
Fantastic experience: Starting Sanctuary has been a game changer for me. The classes are varied and challenging but really enjoyable (depending on the amount of burpees). The PTs are all so welcoming and supportive and the general community feel is great. As someone who's always found it hard to hold myself accountable for exercising and diets, as well as finding it difficult sticking to a new fitness regime, I feel like a new person. By booking on to the classes, I hold myself accountable and with hard work and support from the monthly members meetings, I have made significant and sustainable progress!
Hi Caroline, thank you so much for this thoughtful and detailed review. We're absolutely thrilled to hear how much of a positive impact our services have made on your fitness journey. Accountability is key, and it's wonderful to hear how our classes and community have helped in your progress. Your words motivate us to maintain our quality services. Keep up the great work!
Fantastic experience: Loving being a member at Sanctuary, I was so nervous to begin with but everyone is so friendly and encouraging. All the coaches are amazing and the workouts are varied so it never gets boring! I’ve never looked forward to exercise so much! I would give it 10 stars if I could!
Trudy, we appreciate your kind words! It's wonderful to hear that you are enjoying your time at Sanctuary and that our team and workouts are exceeding your expectations. We’re thrilled to be a part of your fitness journey! Thanks for giving us 10 stars in spirit!
Fantastic experience: We joined Sanctuary Gym early April, we had been members of another local gym. The whole experience with Sanctuary been nothing but empowering and encouraging. The instructors are absolutely amazing at making sure you get the most from the sessions, making sure your form and safety are paramount. They are super friendly and have created a really good ‘community feel’ in the gym. I was really nervous about joining, both my husband and I are ‘more mature’ in years and I especially was worried about not being able to keep up but age, I have learnt is irrelevant here, you do what you can do without any judgements on what you can or can’t do. Thank you at Sanctuary fitness & Conditioning, you really are the best!
We're absolutely thrilled to hear about your positive experience at Sanctuary Fitness & Conditioning, Karen! It's wonderful to know that you feel empowered and encouraged. We pride ourselves on making sure everyone feels part of our warm and welcoming community. Your acknowledgment of our efforts to prioritize form, safety, and inclusivity means a lot to us. Thank you so much for choosing us and your lovely words!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym! If you're on the fence about joining, go for it, you won't regret it. Honestly, it's been life changing for me since we joined in March. Although I've done all kinds of fitness and sports in the past, I joined Sanctuary in probably the worst condition of my life. I don't look like a regular at a gym, and I still can't do some of the exercises. I had massive anxiety about going to a gym where I couldn't just hide in the corner - I don't usually want people to talk to me in the gym! But Sanctuary is so welcoming - everyone who works there, and the whole community. I've never felt judged, just welcomed. And there are always adaptations for exercises that are difficult. I've said for a while, I don't need "accountability", I'm already hard enough on myself, I need "care" - and finding a fitness community, and PTs, who care is transformative. I also love the class-based approach because it takes the guess work out of it, and it's so easy to book too. This is the first time in my life I've clearly noticed the impact of gym-going on my day to day wellbeing. I'm hugely grateful to Sanctuary for that - and I'm only just getting started!
Rebecca, thank you so much for your thoughtful review. We are incredibly grateful to hear about your improvement and how much you enjoy our community and class-based approach. We assure you that we'll continue to provide a welcoming and caring environment for our members. Your progress is our victory! Keep up the great work and we can't wait to see where your fitness journey takes you with Sanctuary Fitness & Conditioning.
Fantastic experience: Blown away by this place ! A proper hidden gem, got some great gear and equipment. For my first strength session I was made to feel very welcome and shown the ropes through some lifts I'd not done before. Can't wait to dabble in more
Fantastic experience: The best gym! I cannot recommend this place enough. The coaches, the workouts, the people- I feel so lucky that I’ve found Sanctuary since I’ve moved this way
Thank you for your enthusiastic review, Clare! We're thrilled to know you appreciate our gym, the coaches, workouts and the community. We’re equally lucky to have you with us. Looking forward to your continued journey with us.
Fantastic experience: The BEST gym I’ve ever been to! Great sessions which really push you, knowledgable and friendly trainers and overall a supportive and fun environment! Cannot recommend enough!
Fantastic experience: Best gym ever! If you like variety and need inspiration for workouts, I definitely recommend Sanctuary. The PT’s and members are all so friendly, it has a lovely community vibe. I’m currently recovering from surgery and the PT’s have been amazing with helping me through my physio. I also moved house and still travel 40 mins to get there, that’s how good Sanctuary is!

Fantastic experience: I like this gym alot ❤️
Fantastic experience: What a gym! Get yourselves down here!
Fantastic experience: I joined Sanctuary back in February and can honestly say it's the best decision I ever made. I have had gym anxiety for years which has always led me to be very inconsistent with my training but from the first moment I steeped into Sanctuary I felt at ease. I've never come across another member that I felt is judging me, everyone is super encouraging and there is a very good vibe at all times. I now understand why they use the slogan "not just another gym"
Fantastic experience: I have been a member at Sanctuary since day 1. I count the trainers as friends. The support is fantastic, and the community here is wonderful. The advice and guidance is like no other gym, the classes are varied and challenging. This place has helped me through some tough times and it really is a place of sanctuary!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym. After quite a long lay off doing no exercise I saw sanctuary were doing a free weeks trial and thought I would give it a go…..best decision I ever made! The workouts are varied, functional and really push you. The coaches are excellent and have really good knowledge of fitness and strength training. everyone who goes are always friendly and always say hello to you. Love this place!
Fantastic experience: I love this place, it really is a sanctuary. The most supportive, friendly & motivating atmosphere you could wish for. From being a complete beginner through to competing in my first fitness competition, Sanctuary have been at the heart of every bit of progress I’ve made. They care about your goals & will help you to achieve them no matter what they are. The PTs all have amazing knowledge that they’re happy to share every session. 3 years on and I still learn something new every day!
Fantastic experience: Joining Sanctuary last December has literally turned my life around! Amazingly supportive and friendly PT’s that go out of their way to help. Supportive members who help and encourage. Whether you’re relatively new to fitness, or if you train at an advanced level, then this is the place for you. You’ll be hooked after just one class. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Been at Sanctuary for about 6 months after relocating to the area and it's just the best. The community you get from training with the same people is excellent. The workouts are always different so it never gets stale and it's the perfect blend of strength work and stamina work. Worth every penny and much better than a commercial gym.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member 4 years this month, I can honestly say joining sanctuary is one of the best decisions I’ve made. It rekindled my love for working out, I feel stronger and fitter than I have in years! Tom and shaun are great, they are able to get the best out of you and offer sound advice (and banter) when needed. I’ve also made some wonderful friendships. Who thought working out could be that fun! Thank you
Fantastic experience: Been a member here 3 years now & it’s completely changed my life & mental health. Im the fittest & strongest I’ve ever been. Not only have I found a great place to train, support & encourage me I’ve also made great friends & feel apart of the Sanctuary family. Everything they do here is for the love of exercise & helping others gain a better mindset to eating healthy & becoming the best version of yourself with your body hang ups or goals. Love you guys!! Keep on beasting us always - Laura xxx
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym,really friendly environment and supportive no matter what your current level is. All the coaches are really knowledgeable and provide some really helpful coaching and advice to achieve your goals, not like any other gym!
Fantastic experience: More than just a gym ! Amazing place full of amazing PTs. Can’t recommend sanctuary enough. Every PT is 5* and nothing is ever too much trouble from members meetings and monthly check ins to helping you work around ability and or injuries.
Fantastic experience: Great trainers, great sessions and supportive training team
Fantastic experience: Perfect for all training!!!
Fantastic experience: Been at this gym for a while now and can't recommend enough. The trainers are brilliant at what they do and always supportive and motivate you. The other members are really friendly and down to earth as well. Great gym to be a part of!
Fantastic experience: Would say great gym but this is so much more than a gym. This is a team of trainers that are so knowledgeable and put on amazing classes that no two workouts are the same, leaving you mentally and physically worked out. This is somewhere that'll provide nutritional advice and support to help you reach your goals. This is somewhere to escape the bleak world. This is somewhere can not recommend it enough. This is a sanctuary!
Fantastic experience: Hands down the best gym I have ever trained at. Friendly members and trainers who push you to your limits and help you achieve your goals. Only wish I’d joined sooner!
You've been smashing it right from your very first kettle bell session!! Long may it continue!
Fantastic experience: If you want results and want to train in the nicest environment with top trainers and lovely people then Sanctuary is the place. Never been so happy with my body and strength since coming here!
Fantastic experience: You don’t have to be crazy to train here...but it helps!! Amazing place...I have watched people transform into absolute machines!!!! And now I’m just starting to see my transformation. It’s very individualised and the trainers get to know you very well so they know when to push you!!!! It’s a wonderful place to be a part of. They offer a free weeks trial - I was hooked after one day!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym with a great atmosphere! My fitness has improved massively thanks to the help of the trainers and the support of my fellow members! 100% recommend!

Fantastic experience: Quality gym and top trainers. Great place to train
And quality music!! The place wouldn't be the same without you Andy!!
Fantastic experience: I joined Sanctuary @2 months ago. I was bored with doing the same thing day in day out at my last gym. Sanctuary offer a huge range of classes, that are taught by great PT’s who not only instruct and correct you with your technique, posture and push you to improve, they will also help and advise you on nutrition too with monthly weigh in and measurements if you wish. It really is a friendly place, not intimidating like some gyms, and everybody encourages you to achieve your best.
Fantastic experience: Want a gym where the trainers know you personally, where no matter what your capabilities they bring out the best in you? Then look no further! This gym is going from strength to strength. Its clientele are welcoming and you feel like family. This place encourages, challenges and motivates you! Best gym ever, fact!!!
Thanks for the review Louise - you were a fab member and are missed by us all!!
Fantastic experience: Not only does sanctuary make you change your way of thinking about going to 'the gym' it makes you enjoy it. Everything about it, is the best, the trainers, the members, the work outs and the place itself. If you haven't tried and had your free week trial do it now cause you won't look back. I can't thank everyone enough at sanctuary for changing my views and helping me loose inches I never thought I would!!!!
Thanks Nicola!! You've been amazing right from the start, throwing yourself out of your comfort zone, with the results clear to see. Keep up the hard work!
Fantastic experience: Amazing training space with a fantastic bunch of PT's and varied classes. I recommend anyone to try the trial week and all the different sessions. It was a very daunting experience stepping foot in Sanctuary but all the amazing members/ PT's put me at ease. This is very much so a family environment and everyone supports each other.
Fantastic experience: After doing a free week trial, it was clear to see that the sanctuary would push me past what I was doing elsewhere. I am now fitter, stronger and in better shape than before. The sanctuary pt's and like minded people will push you past what you think is possible and they will help you and guide you to achieve and surpass your goals. Definitely 100% recommend
You have gone from strength to strength, quite literally! Let's keep pushing you!
Fantastic experience: Well, where to start......what an amazing place! The atmosphere is so fun and friendly you don’t realise how hard you are working. The trainers REALLY know their stuff and their motivation and support is terrific you can’t wait to go back. I never thought at my age I would look forward to working out but you don’t feel out of place and honestly the results are great! I’ve a whole new group of friends and feel fitter than I did in my twenties!!
