Fantastic experience: I have been training there for over 2 years. Fantastic team. All professionals with great experience in Personal Training Shinny, Ryan and Gary are all top coaches

Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym, especially boxfit and box & circuit classes. Shinny and his team (Gary and Ryan) are excellent, not just in their expertise but in the manner they encourage you. I’m in my 50s (late) and hadn’t done something like this before. Now I miss it if I don’t go twice a week. Other members are a good crowd too, all mutually supportive. One of the best things I’ve done.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant gym. Shinny really focuses on the kids working out properly and he is firm but fair. We are a family with disabilities and my son is doing great he loves it. I was a bit worried because of his needs, but he has really got stuck in. He also lacks in confidence but this has really helped him, and he’s only been twice! Missed his second week because he had a cough and i didnt want him spreading his cough around. I just said to him if you dont know what to do look at the person next to you and do that. As we have trouble processing information sometimes. Shinny walks around everyone and, if say my son hasn’t got his hands or back right he is corrected and shown how to do it properly £5 for a great workout for your child and to learn discipline and focus and how to defend yourself. More importantly keep him off the streets. £1 for bottle of water if you forget yours. Brilliant! Mums and dads/carers bring your own hot drinks. Cold drinks you can buy from the fridge behind reception, if you run out or forget your own, or if you just want a colder drink straight from the fridge Thanks Shinny and staff really good place to be, and when you smile you get smiles back ! In a world where not many people want to smile this makes a welcoming change for me makes me feel happy and lifts me up. Makes me feel welcome too ⭐️ Thanks Shinny Oh and not to mention that Shinny is a boxing champion is the icing on the cake really, you know your child is in safe and very good trained hands My neice comes too with her friends shes only 10 but they are all treated the same. Nice to see the younger girls here and for them to feel comfortable here too. Again says a lot. Dedication, she even comes when her friends arnt here and is confident enough to come on her own, and show her dedication. Hats off to my niece and the younger girls coming. Shinny knows how to make the kids feel confident, and thats an excellent quality to bring, for them to learn. Great atmosphere great coaching. Highly recommend. Excellent all round 5 stars from us ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Directions… Come off the main road turn first right up steep hill turn right into big steel gates into shared car park. Park on the right as the far part of carpark and left is for a business. You can always park on the hill although a bit tricky but at least its free and you can park ☺️

Fantastic experience: Truly an excellent gym with everything you could possibly need to achieve your fitness and fighting goals. Shinny is the real deal - previously a British Flyweight Champion and his team are friendly and welcoming. There is a full-size boxing ring, lots of punchbags, a full suite of strength training equipment, bikes, treadmills, circuit training equipment, you name it. I can highly recommend the classes which are attended by a friendly and inclusive community of mixed ages and abilities.

Fantastic experience: Incredible gym, all trainers and staff are absolutely lovely and all round caring for every individual. Whenever there’s an problem (never any problems) they sort it out instantly and make sure that you can’t wait to come back the next time and give it your all! 10/10 would definitely recommend to anyone who’s worried about joining a nationwide gym like pure gym etc, the atmosphere in here is brilliant to get started and become more confident and passionate about working out each week!

Thom Lambert 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Friendliest gym around (both staff and members). Options for fitness based classes and for more technical classes. Pay as you go or no-contract memberships. I do membership, which works out good value for money on classes plus I can drop in the gym whenever and use the equipment. Also option of a gym only cheap membership. You can seriously train at Shinny's but at the same time, you aren't out of place if you're new and just want to smash a punch bag for a workout, lift some weights or do a circuit. Good social vibe too. Coaches are great. Very welcoming and will give you advice on your technique if you want to learn a bit. I tried Shinny's a year ago, cancelled my pure gym membership and come here a few times a week. Highly recommend.

JackSparrow x 7 years ago

Positive experience: £50 monthly is a lot compared to other classes or £6 to walk in each session. Main reason will not be able to come back. Want only train 3 days a week and would have to pay £18 weekly.. Will stick to cheaper gyms. Regards

Hi thanks for your feedback. We try to be as competitive on price as possible and we don't ask members to sign a contract. Our new website details our full pricing options: Gym-only membership is just £20 a month so you can train in the gym as many times as you like from Monday to Saturday. Anyone can walk in to our group classes without a membership for £6 per class. For people like yourself who want to do 3 classes a week or more, they choose to pay £50 a month for the gym membership plus unlimited access to classes. We currently have 12 adult classes running each week (plus 1 women-only class) so for a male member paying £50 a month, he can access the gym facilities 6 days a week, and choose from 48 classes. So it would reduce your £18 a week to approx £12.50 for as many classes as you like. Hope that helps.
