Fantastic experience: Lovely gym, and lovely people - there's always a great buzz and energy here. A lot is said about lack of connection and poor mental health, and real community based businessess are few and far between, but Red Corner Gym has created it's own standing in the community over decades of hard work, and works day in and day out to help people's mental and physical health, to bring out people's best selves. The staff are welcoming, personable, professional and highly knowledgeable about what they do. If you want to get fit not only does the gym provide the tools, they also have staff who have in-depth knowledge of strength and conditioning and movement, as well as up to date nutritional advice - pretty much everything you will need on your journey to wellness. The boxing coaching is of course legendary and owner Glenn has decades of hard-fought experience in this area, and he continues to train high quality fighters to this day. If you really want to improve your mental and physical health this is the place to do it. Red Corner Gym is highly recommended by myself and many others. Jason Harrison

Fantastic experience: The staff are very friendly and welcoming, you settle in straight away. I’ve enjoyed being at RCG, I’ve been to a couple of adult boxing classes. Now I’m currently doing 1 to 1 sessions which I really enjoy. Everyone here gets along with each other really well, never seen or experienced anything bad at RCG.

Fantastic experience: I am a young female . I train there regularly and I feel very comfortable. The gym is very nice and very nicely decorated not very big but very cozy. The staff are good and friendly if you have any question they help. As a female training in there I find that the men are respectful towards women's and I never been intimidated. They also have a great variety of clothes that you can buy with the logo on and proteins bars too. I enjoy coming to Red Corner gym . Lori G

Negative experience: 10/06/2021 19:00-20:00 I done professional teakwondo in past for 5 years win many competitions but boxing was my first training day in Red corner first when we started was 11 people in the a ring you feel that every body it’s too close no room for your self no room to work out. Trainer who was training me never come and show any technics of attack , defence or basic boxing rack basically you just come there to hit the pads as strong as you can.... I payed 5£ not a lot but even that is not worth the money it’s was my last time there, maybe there is some other trainers who knows what they are doing there but one who trained me today was useless. And he took it picture of us today f...knows why maybe to show that here it’s a lot of people working out... I in white T-shirt in front good luck every body

Hi Egar, We are sorry to hear about your recent experience with us. We do have class limits in place right now due to the UK restrictions and our class descriptions can be found while booking through our website. There you’ll clearly see the breakdown of each class. Our Thursday class is more of a fast-paced fitness class, perhaps our technical boxing class would have suited you more? We take all feedback seriously and have contacted Marc, the instructor of your class, who’s sorry to hear about this. He’s offered a free half an hour 1-1 session if this is something you’d be interested in? Please let us know and we can arrange Many Thanks, Team Red Corner

Emily 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been training here for about 8 years now. I joined at a time when my confidence was really low but I immediately felt at home. I was welcomed and encouraged and the boxing tuition was excellent. Everyone is encouraged and respected regardless of age, fitness or experience. I've trained here throughout chemotherapy a few years ago as I knew I was in safe hands It's now part of my recovery and return to fitness.

Fantastic experience: Very good gym, highly recommend! Very good atmosphere with no ultra ego type personalities. Always a warm welcome in every visit, by everyone at the gym! All the people that work there are friendly and always have time to answer any questions or show you how to use any equipment and also All in a good moods which is obviously why the place is buzzing with positive energy! I have 1n1 sessions with Troy, he is sick and in 6 weeks had me ready for my charity fight and help me shift 2.5 stone for the fight to! The guy is a legend with ALOT of knowledge

Negative experience: is terrible. wish I could rate it 0, the trainers were so rude if I did something wrong. everyday I would go back to my place and would feel self conscious because they called me fat and lazy if I didn't work hard enough. Would not recommend

Hi Jessie and Eva, Thank you for the feedback however, we are unable to verify any of the information you have described nor can we locate your name in our database system. We take our customer feedback very seriously so if you would like to contact us directly at [email protected] with the class you attended and the instructor name we will look into this further. It is strictly against our company policy to talk in such a way in which you have described, over the years we have always taken an active stance against bullying or offensive behaviour. It is hard to believe any of our team would talk in such a way to any member of the gym, we are a close knit family and that kind of language simply does not happen. We feel proud of the welcoming, friendly and helpful environment we offer our customers and will always continue to do so as can be seen from the positive google and facebook reviews we receive. This review has been reported to google as fake and as such will be investigated.

Fantastic experience: Best gym I've ever been to by a country mile. Family run, friendly and welcoming. There is no difference in the treatment and respect given to pro boxers, and someone putting on a pair of gloves for the first time. I would recommend this place to anyone- regardless of age or fitness. Everything a gym should be.
