The Yard

Fantastic experience: Best gym in SE London. Sociable, friendly and will make you stronger and fitter than you ever thought possible

Fantastic experience: I have been going to The Yard Peckham for 6 plus years. From the invaluable coaching and programming to the great community- I could not recommend them enough! This gym is truly for everyone, those looking to hone in their strength gains/z and those looking to try something new. I was one of the ladder, and I am grateful I joined.

Fantastic experience: I started CrossFit at The Yard about 7 years ago and was in my 50s at the time. I was a little nervous at first but intrigued about CrossFit. From the very first class I was welcomed and supported by the coaches and other members. The coaches here are first rate and the community and friendly atmosphere is outstanding. I have met a great new tribe and The Yard is very much my second home now (my family may argue actually my first).

Fantastic experience: Been a member for just under a year and have loved every minute of it. The coaches are quality and the community they’ve built there is special. BIG UP THE YARD

Fantastic experience: Best hour of my day consistently for the last 5years. Great space to train and amazing coaches to guide you through the process.

Fantastic experience: Love working out here, the coaches are great, such a good community feel, and the workouts are tough!

Fantastic experience: The Yard is an incredible community - a fitness family like no other. I worked out there for over 7yrs and miss it endlessly now I’ve moved from the area. Give it a go!

Fantastic experience: Gareth and Zade have the most positive and friendly attitude I've ever encountered in coaches. Great place and ambience to work out. 10/10!

Fantastic experience: The best place to train with the best people! I started with Strong as a Mother postpartum and now am a regular at Crank and Tank

Fantastic experience: Best gym there is - amazing community, amazing coaching, amazing array of classes that actually get you fitter and stronger in an intelligent, structured way (whilst having a laugh and a half at the same time).

Fantastic experience: The Yard Peckham is the most friendly and enjoyable place to workout, meet new people and achieve your fitness goals. My wife and I love being members here and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Fantastic experience: It’s the best place. I do strong as a mama and all the coaches are so supportive and kind, the music is fun and the workouts are brilliant - tough but achievable. I love it!

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Doing SAAM classes here with Kelly and Evie - and its really driving my recovery post-partum! The space and team are so friendly, positive and non-judgemental, and do whatever they can (including Gareth taking my weepy 6 month old daughter out for a walk!) to make sure that my work out time is me time!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in SE London! Amazing team of coaches who look after you from the moment you walk in. Super fun, challenging, a great community, wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Fantastic experience: This gym is amazing — they have Crossfit classes, Metcon, Cardio focused classes called engines and weightlifting. All of those spaces are available for open gym too around the classes. There is such a focus on community here that I haven’t found replicated anywhere else, it’s totally devoid of any gym bro energy and is a fun and welcoming place for all, even if you are a newbie and v anxious about stepping foot in a gym. It has all the kit you could need for a good workout and more, I couldn’t recommend it enough. (Aside from Gareth’s taste in music for the WODs)

Fantastic experience: The best gym in London! The trainers are all so friendly and supportive, really helping you to get fit in a great and inclusive environment.

Fantastic experience: The Yard was my favourite discovery in South London during maternity leave. Strong As A Mother (SAAM) is run by the most knowledgable and attentive PT's. They helped me build strength and confidence in the most supportive environment. The community they have created is next level. It is run by the nicest, uplifting and encouraging people.

Fantastic experience: Love everything about this place! Encouraging, knowledgable coaches who not only support your fitness goals but create a friendly and supportive community. I’ve made lifelong friends and got fitter too.

Fantastic experience: The yard is hands down the friendliest box in London. Quality space, loads of top notch equipment, great community feel and most importantly, excellent coaching.

Fantastic experience: Recently joined TYP after moving to SE London and it really is a great box. The space is incredible and spacious, good programming and excellent coaches!

Fantastic experience: The Yard is more than a gym, it’s a community of like-minded people who want to be stronger and healthier. The last 7 years have transformed my fitness. My workouts are a highlight of my week - as much a social event as an opportunity to sweat profusely. The coaches are fantastic - combining technical knowledge with the right balance of encouragement and fun. What’s not to like?!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym & community. Expert trainers who remember you and your ailments if you have them and adapt the workout to your needs. I always feel safe and appreciate the corrections to avoid any injury. Great place to meet like minded people and never feel out of place. Lovely people who really care and know how to have a laugh too! Liv

Fantastic experience: Not enough stars on here for how I feel about this place. When I lived in (south) London, I cursed my way through London traffic for almost an hour each way, 3-4 times a week, to be able to train there. After my last move, the commute has finally become impossible (and would include a channel swim), but it's rare to find a combination of high level coaching, fun and kindness in one gym like you do at The Yard. Gareth, Zade I miss you guys, (almost as much as I miss Ted).

Fantastic experience: The Yard is a brilliant space with super friendly coaches and a range of classes for literally any body or fitness level to join including CrossFit, barbell, weightlifting, conditioning and personal training. I’ve been to regular CrossFit and continued when pregnant (I got loads of support from all coaches who enabled me to work out throughout pregnancy), joined the Strong As A Mother mum-and-baby classes and am now back to the main classes. A great community, I feel lucky to have The Yard on my doorstep.

Fantastic experience: One visit and you’ll never leave. The best and most welcoming community gym I’ve ever been to. Great programming, friendly and knowledgeable trainers and lots of variety. My favourite place

Fantastic experience: Not just a gym, but a community. The instructors create such a welcoming and fun vibe that it’s hard not to stick around! You also get pretty fit too if you keep going

Fantastic experience: The 2nd best place to be at 7 AM, the 1st being bed. The Yard offers great facilities, the coaches and choaching is first-class. The members aren't too bad either. This place is great no matter how fit you are, every workout can be adapted to suit different abilities. I have learned a lot, had a lot of fun and even got a bit fitter in doing so.

Fantastic experience: An absolute game changer for my life in London. Incredible facilities, coaches and group of like-minded folks coming in day in and day out with a smile on their face and ready to work hard. 100% recommend.

Fantastic experience: I love this box! It’s super social, and everyone is really friendly. The coaching and programming is top notch, and suitable for every level. I’m so sad I moved further away and couldn’t come anymore!

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend The Yard highly enough. I’ve been a member for a number of years and I still enjoy every session. The coaches are super knowledgeable and genuinely care about helping you achieve your goals, regardless of your starting point (and mine was low!). The atmosphere is always fun and energetic and the variety of workouts keeps things interesting and challenging, never a dull moment in there! .

Fantastic experience: I've been a member with The Yard since I moved to the area in 2017 and cannot even consider leaving such a brilliant gym. All the coaches and members foster an incredible atmosphere and togetherness while also being considerate to people and charities of the local community. I've brought my wife into 'Crank life' and I can see a day where our daughter trains here too- these guys and ladies here really are the best.

Fantastic experience: I’ve only been at The Yard/CRANK for a few months but it’s one of the best gyms I’ve come across in my many years of training. Great equipment, a wonderful and varied timetable and excellent coaches. The team have utilised the space excellently and have created such a welcoming environment. Would definitely recommend! There is something for everyone.

Fantastic experience: The Yard is incredible - having never done CrossFit before and having some health concerns I was nervous to join, but the team are brilliant. Shout out in particular to Gareth, Charlie, Kath and Marta for being brilliant coaches. They are all experts and strike the difficult balance of giving careful guidance without overwhelming new members. They foster a great community which is open to everyone and supportive of all sorts of goals - everyone I have met in the classes are friendly and welcoming. Thank you gang!

Fantastic experience: I joined The Yard a couple of months ago after giving up my previous sport. I shopped around for a few different options with ClassPass, because I wanted to find somewhere I wanted to stay training for a while. I settled on The Yard and I’m really pleased I did. I’ve found the coaches to be very knowledgeable and thorough in their training, the gym is in a good spot and well kitted out, people are kind and friendly. There is also a competitive element for those interested and the ability to scale workouts appropriately for differing abilities.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to Yard / Crank now for two years and honestly I love it. The trainers and members are so friendly and welcoming. There is a ridiculous amount of choice across the two concepts and loads of in house comps to get involved. In addition open gym allows you to train in peace without fighting for a squat rack like you’d have to in a commercial gym. I wouldn’t train anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: The Yard is my favourite crossfit gym i have ever been to! The people & coaches are great, it is honestly the best environment, I can't compliment them enough. Would recommend to anyone and everyone, from complete beginners to the pros!

Fantastic experience: Every Box has its own vibe and this particular vibe...is great. I've been training with the Yard for over a year and it's come to feel like home a bit (as much as a box can). The coaches are wonderful, the community supportive and the training varied. What a delight!

Fantastic experience: Stepping into The Yard for my first-ever CrossFit experience was amazing! As a local, I was eager to try something new, and I couldn’t have found a better place, 5 months later and I'm still here! The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming for all fitness levels, and the diverse, friendly community made me feel right at home. The workouts are challenging, yet fun, with plenty of variety to keep things exciting. It’s clear the team genuinely cares about everyone who walks through the door. Thank you for making my first CrossFit experience so positive and for helping me get moving!

Fantastic experience: This is a great community gym. I have been going there for a while now. I have made friends and got fit in the process!

Fantastic experience: Really friendly staff, great class. Will be back!

Fantastic experience: This is a top class fitness experience - the staff are funny and friendly, the workouts are varied, inclusive and challenging and everyone there goes the extra mile to help you feel part of the gang. Try it you might love it!!

Fantastic experience: Super welcoming space. I'm having PT sessions here with Leo. I absolutely love the space and the people. The owners are almost always around they're really friendly and kind. Not that it really contributes to the quality of the space, but the gym dog, Ted is so lovely and cuddly; oh and so is Tilly.

Fantastic experience: The guy who runs this place is really lovely - unfortunately I decided on a different gym (got a deal at the old one), but this is the type of open plan gym I like.

Fantastic experience: Great great great

Fantastic experience: Season 1 and 2 were good but not amazing. The characters were a bit 1 dimensional, specially the guy with the black dog that sounds like the Cookie Monster. Season 3 is SO GOOD. Jehn and Dale are a great addition to the cast and even though Jehn says mostly 'No' I can see an arc.

Negative experience: The cafe is overpriced. I had their last piece of banana bread. Little did I know, they sliced it in half to give me. Ended up with a very thin slice of bread. Tasty but very unfairly priced.

Fantastic experience: Best place to have fun and get fit in London

Fantastic experience: LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. If you are ever wanting to challenge yourself in a friendly environment this is where to go! The coaches are so knowledgable and helpful, the space and equipment has recently been upgraded and what a treat they have for you. Really is a pleasure to train here. Do not look anywhere else for a gym!!

Negative experience: This place is terrible. Its costs £150 to join the gym, then when you join it costs £125 per month. For £125 per month you get to do 3 classes per week - but there are not that many classes - and the classes that ARE available are ALWAYS fully booked!! Therefore, you pay £125 per month to use a warehouse with some gym stuff in it. What are they thinking?!

Fantastic experience: Very friendly Crossfit box. Great facilities and coaching.

Fantastic experience: by far the best Box. Great workouts, superb facilities and fantastic Staff!

Fantastic experience: Brilliant
