Principal Fitness

Fantastic experience: Very fun, friendly and accessible group sessions with extremely knowledgeable advice. Like small group PT. Excellent would recommend

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend! A good hour of guided strength and cardio circuits, set to music so the time flies by! Loads of equipment provided, such as ropes, resistance bands and weights. Different every week so you don’t get bored. All done with humour and encouragement. Great job Principal Fitness!

Fantastic experience: Finally found a class that I love!! Great group of people of all ages and exercise levels. You get as much out of it as you are willing to put into it and walk away feeling accomplished (and a little sore)!!!!! Exercises can be modified for individual’s needs and Charlie and Craig push you beyond what you ‘think’ you can do!! Give it a try - you won’t regret it!!!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been to both the indoor and outdoor classes with Charlie and his team. Both are well run, friendly and multi level. You’re encouraged to get stronger but it’s not competitive (other than with yourself!) I particularly like the classes in the park and it’s keep me focussed and fit during a challenging 2 years of pandemic! We all need community. I’d recommend this one.

Fantastic experience: I’ve trained with Principal Fitness over the past 8 years on and off. With a variety of classes and the opportunity to train 1-1 there is something for everyone. Everyone is made welcome and there is a great atmosphere in the classes , really relaxed and fun while still being pushed to gain results .

Fantastic experience: Great fun doing bootcamps. Instructors are helpful and challenge you to increase fitness. Good value for money too. Well worth it.

Fantastic experience: I started classes with Principal Fitness in January to build strength to complement the running that I do and I have noticed big improvements already. The instructors are great - keeping everyone motivated and encouraging you to progress and challenge yourself. I didn't know anyone when I started but everyone who attends is so friendly and the time in class really flies by! I would highly recommend to anyone, whatever their level of fitness, to try Principal Fitness!

Fantastic experience: This is a very friendly club. They get the balance right between pushing you but not so hard that it ceases to be enjoyable. If you want to be a body beautiful pumped up beefcake this might not be the place for you, but if you want to get fit and stay fit with fun and friendly people I would recommend Principal Fitness.

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend these gym classes highly enough. I have been going for over 6 years now and I still love them. Everyone is incredibly friendly and make you feel really welcome . The instructors are great and really know their stuff. They can offer help and advice on achieving your goals and set plans to suit your needs . They can also help with nutritional advice too. I used to find going to the gym a real chore and pretty dull but with principal fitness I look forward to going to each class. It’s great that you don’t have to think about your own workout schedule as they tell you what to do each class and the variety is good. They now offer both indoor and outdoor classes so there really is something to suit all needs.

Fantastic experience: Couldn't recommend principal enough! These guys are amazing, we love their classes. Always a good laugh and very knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: I started using Principal Fitness after having had my two kids and was a great way to get back in shape. Since then I've regularly trained with them, both in outdoor bootcamp settings and in the gym based group sessions. Always a great workout, fun, sociable and feel like I've achieved my fitness goals. Love the outdoor setting too and flexible options of classes so never miss out.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Principal Fitness classes for a number of years now and can highly recommend them. I returned about a year ago (having taken a break due to work commitments and then Covid) and it's been so good to be back. During the break I used to run a lot, but I really love the balanced workout I get from the classes which has helped me to gain a more rounded fitness level. I also love the social element of being back in a class. All of the instructors are great and I've got to have a whole new set of friends too!

Fantastic experience: A friendly run fitness company that cares about helping you to achieve your goals. They provide good programmes, support and encouragement, whether in a group class or one to one session. Good range of equipment that they show you how to use and is well maintained..... give them a shot.

Fantastic experience: Charlie Hobson has been my PT for 4 years, I can’t speak highly enough about Principal Fitness - I wish I could give 10 stars.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend the classes and personal training. Trainers all really knowledgable and welcoming!

Negative experience: Treadmill broke and I fell off and broke my arm

Positive experience: I have been coming here for over 4 years to a variety of classes. As a mature late starter to circuit classes I have always felt comfortable and encouraged. Everyone is friendly and Charlie and all the instructors are happy to answer any questions. Nothing is too much trouble.

Fantastic experience: The team at Principal Fitness are a really welcoming group of professionals and have kept me working out 3 to 4 times a week for the last 2yrs. Classes are fun but hard, but you go at your own rate and get out of it what you put in.

Fantastic experience: Been going regularly for a few years. It's everything you need in a gym without the failings of so many of the chains. There is a great selection of classes. The trainers are supportive and fun. The best thing is the speed at which, by following the plans the trainers provide, at which you can see noticeable changes.

Fantastic experience: A fantastic gym - great classes and friendly atmosphere. I really enjoy the variety of the classes, the personal attention to your fitness goals and the fact you can have fun training with a great bunch of people. I have been coming for over 4 years now and my fitness has never been better.

Fantastic experience: Excellent Classes and great personal training, the environment is very relaxed, and friendly. I've been going for a couple of years and feel so much better for it. Highly recommended!!

Fantastic experience: The only gym I have ever lasted with! Great team who motivated me to lose a couple of stone. Feel better than I ever have. Highly recommended.
