Joshua Ntiedo Umoren (Mr More) 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Been going to this gym for a while now and only have great things to say. From the sleek layout and design to top quality facilities and good people. I have to give a special mention to Jude, Jalees, Alex, & Anthony for the way the gym is run, and for fostering a welcoming, enjoyable and hard working environment. I train Jiu Jitsu here at least 3 times a week and the classes are stellar! I also use the weights, treadmills and bikes once or twice a week - there’s always space for me to carry out my workout without having to wait for equipment, which is a big bonus to me. If you’re looking for high quality, high end gym in the city, this is most definitely the place.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of the gym since August 2022 and have been really enjoying the facilities. The gym is well maintained and clean as it's not busy compared to some of the other commercial gyms. What attracted to me to this gym is how empty it is most of the time and thus far I have never had to wait for any of the machines. The gym has all the important things like fresh towels. Steam room good sized lockers. Generally it's not too busy unless you finish or start when there's a BJJ class... Then the locker room will be full. The app is smooth to use and you can order everything there. Front of house staff are super friendly like Anthony, Jalees and Alex. Always smiling and doing there best for our needs. Coaches and PTs are great as well, with BJJ being the highlight! One of the best BJJ gyms by far ran by Jude Samuel, who is highly respected and very well known in the BJJ circles. I wouldn't have survived as long in the BJJ if it wasn't for the culture he has nurtured there!! Basically the gym has everything you could want for a city gym. No need for towels, great variety of classes like yoga, BJJ, boxing, Muay Thai, HIIT(Octrain), lead by some top practitioners. If you go there at the right time it feels like a private gym as there's barely anyone else there.

Positive experience: As a constant coffee lover and business traveller, i always tend to find a great place to chill and of course a place that has a great networking ! However, i am very disappointed with the new paper coffee cup which they just implemented. This has cause a lot of spillage on my shirt and on the floor. Although the staff is very nice but unfortunately this is not just happened to me. I hope Eight Management can sort this out and I am more than happy to come back ! — Zac ( CEO of A Financial Company Based in London )

Fantastic experience: State of the Art Gym facilities cosy environment. Front of house staff friendly and professional. Coaches are all world class martial artists. Great value for what the Eight club offer as a member. The restaurant upstairs is remarkable. As I Relished every mouthful of Salmon.

Caleb Lorcan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Pros: - Great aesthetic facilities, not very crowded so can get your workout done quicker. - People at reception are super friendly. - The yoga class with Alina is great, a good challenge. - The steam room is a great post-workout treat, and the showers have great pressure. Cons: - 120 a month is a lot so you have to make it worth it - they don’t have some specific machines that I’d like, like a hip thruster or abductor/adductor machine, there’s little space for any more so doubt that will change. - aren’t 24/7 and are barely open on the weekend so if you work weird hours or have no time till late, probably isn’t the place for you. I’m really happy with my experience, if you think it’s worth the price than go for it, if not then there’s cheaper options.

Negative experience: The coaches at this gym is very unprofessional, especially Jude & this cocky, and weird trainer called Chris, save your membership and go elsewhere, better gyms and you will be treated really well.

Chuting Li 1 year ago

Negative experience: I came to have a look at this gym and there was a pt near the boxing ring with a whole film production setup on the gym floor talking about mental health, he was really loud. He made no effort to lower his voice. It made me feel super uncomfortable. Super off putting.

Fantastic experience: I come regularly to Alina’s yoga classes here and absolutely love them! The best way to feel both strong and relaxed. I really enjoy the hands on adjustments as well as the options provided to make the practice easier or challenge myself. Can only recommend!

Fantastic experience: Beautiful gym, great BJJ beginners classes by Jude, and amazing yoga for all levels by Ali.

Sara Rietti 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very stilish and cool place. I can't wait to try the steam room! Vinyasa yoga class with Alina is a must. Her classes are fast pacing so prepare to sweat before your shavasana! I've been practicing with Alina for about 6 months now and she's the best yoga teacher I've ever had.

Joanna Ścibior 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Stunning space with great facilities and AMAZING yoga! Vinyasa Flow with Senior Yoga Teacher Alina Bialek was unforgettable! A strong, dynamic class with invaluable hands on adjustments and beautiful relaxation at the end that leave you feeling blissful ❤️

Tashan Egbeyemi-James 2 years ago

Positive experience: The facilities are lovely! Very clean space, and the cafe upstairs is fabulous. FOH staff a bit of a let down at the gym desk. One gentleman, who’s there mid day around 12ish, black, shaved head, just shy of 6ft I’d say, shows a complete lack of interest. Doesn’t engage or have any warm tones. It can bring the vibe down, especially when the instructors and cafe staff are quite the opposite! That aside, wonderful space to train and would definitely recommend to others.
