PureGym London Kidbrooke

Fantastic experience: Kasia is an incredible personal trainer! She not only made me stronger but also taught me how to use gym equipment confidently and improve my overall fitness. Thanks to her guidance, I passed all my fitness tests and now feel at home in the gym. Kasia is friendly, patient, and always ready to help. I can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking to transform their fitness journey!

Fantastic experience: The best and most affordable gym, provides wide range of group classes, has good equipment variety, shower and hair dryer available. Friendly and helpful staff.

Positive experience: There is decent equipment and space, but the Yanga sports water machine is rotten - do not use it!!! The water tastes like the filter hasn't been cleaned.

Fantastic experience: Kasia was my PT at Pure Gym Kidbrooke, and the impact she had on my fitness journey was incredible. She pushed me in ways I would never have done on my own, leading to outstanding results. Thanks to her guidance, I improved my eating habits, became stronger, and overall feel so much better. Kasia helped me build a new lifestyle that I will carry with me forever. Her expertise and dedication are exceptional, and I am immensely grateful for her work. I highly recommend Kasia—she truly knows what she’s doing!

Negative experience: I went to this gym by force because it’s in my building and it’s genuinely awful. Nothing is ever available, it’s 90% men which is fine but no women’s area at all. Usually the only free space is a corner in the functional weights area but then this is being used for classes at any useful time. Tbh my expectations of pure gyms are low but this is really bad and not even worth £30 a month. Some staff are nice but a few r rude and clearly think they’re above other people because they work in pure gym. I think pure gym is genuinely only suitable if you’re of school age and can’t spend on anything nicer. Shame because the space is actually decent and could’ve gone to a better gym and may have been nicer :)

Positive experience: Fabulous

Fantastic experience: Shout out to Kimberly and her amazing FREE stretch 101 guide which is super helpful and i highly recommend to anyone who doesn’t know a lot about stretching when going to the gym or any sort of excersise. Her insta: @k.garcia_fitness_coach

Positive experience: Great space with lots of equipment and good facilities, however it’s let down by zero air conditioning and too many kids sitting on machines on phones constantly.

Negative experience: Bike stolen

Positive experience: The experience is awesome. All what you are looking for you may get it. There is room for improvement but it is a great place for a workout. Thanks!

Negative experience: It’s an Okay gym enough equipment for the space but gets very packed from 4 pm onwards with lots of teenage boys who were all playing flip the bottle in the studio for example when I was last in there. It’s Starting to feel more like a after school club gathering. The other reason for this review is the personal trainer Monika who I find very rude and unapproachable. On numerous occasions I’ve seen her look over with a unfriendly look on her face and rolls her eyes and looks away when I notice. This makes you feel like you have done something wrong. I asked her for help with one of the machines She then goes on and completely ignores me just walks past I feel very uncomfortable to be around her she needs to be more professional and taught some people skills.

Fantastic experience: Not a gym fan and haven’t been to one in 25 years. This looks good though.

Positive experience: Good gym with enough equipments. Class music is quite loud though. I trained there with Monika and loved every bit of it. It's hard to build strength as I am quite small but she was very patient and helpful. She pushed me to the limit to help me stronger. We also had lots of laugh. Definitely recommend her to anyone xx

Positive experience: Started going to this gym in August 23. It has most of the usual gym equipment that you would need to have a good workout. Only one of each machine except the chest fly/rear delt one. 9 pulleys machines. I like the rack area where you can do any compound lift you want. The free weight area and machine area is cramped. The floor space is slightly on the small side. A good amount of cardio equipment. The functional area and the area where classes are held are good sizes and clean. The whole gym is very clean actually. Peak times are 3pm to 8pm Monday to Wednesday/Thursday. If you are uncomfortable asking people how many sets they have, working in with them or are working out with strict time intervals, it can be an annoying experience. If you can go during the day before 3pm, it's fine. Weekends are fine too. I've not gone to this gym earlier than 11am so I cannot comment on the footfall before then. The secondary school and six form students who go to this gym lack social decorum and gym etiquette, which can be annoying (I'm sure management are annoyed too but money is money eh) Changing room is decent and the toilets are as clean as they can be (depends on the treatment of them by the gym goers). All in all, it's a 4/5 but if it was a bigger space with a few more bits of equipment and less teenagers, it would be 5/5.

Fantastic experience: Working with my PT Monika has been a transformative experience. Her expertise and tailored approach to my fitness goals have made each session challenging yet enjoyable. She demonstrate a deep knowledge of exercises and nutrition, providing valuable insights. The positive results I've seen in terms of strength, endurance, and overall well-being speak volumes about her amazing work. I highly recommend Monika for anyone seeking dedicated and professional fitness guidance.

Positive experience: Like the gym but machine equipment is a bit on top of each other.

Fantastic experience: Decent gym, clean and tidy, plenty of machines and even at peak time there is still empty machines to use.

Negative experience: Good gym, decent selection of equipment for the space. The reason for this review is, because of Monika. I noticed she was rude to a number of customers. I unfortunately have been a victim of her bad behaviour on a few occasions. She had the audacity to poke me aggressively to get my attention. She is lucky, it is only a review that I am writing for her. Please teach her some manners.

Fantastic experience: I started training with Monika in September and in just 2 months have already noticed a huge difference. Monika is a pleasure to work with, she’s great at motivating and is always so positive and encouraging. I would highly recommend Monika to anyone hoping to improve their health and fitness - Kidbrooke is lucky to have her! ️‍♀️

Positive experience: No car park and permit only at the side street. Location is not that great if you don’t leave in the flats above.

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Friendly staff. Good choice of machines and a big free weight area

Fantastic experience: I've been working out with Monika as my PT for a year now, and the results are showing! She's very disciplined, motivating and curates well planned sessions to progress towards my goals. Her classes especially cycling and LBT are also extremely popular at the Kidbrooke gym. Highly recommend her if you want to become a healthier and happier version of yourself!

Fantastic experience: Training with Monica was a pleasure for me! She really motivated me! She helped me stay consistent and gave me useful information about my training and nutrition! I also really like the classes with her. Highly recommend her for PT

Fantastic experience: Monika is the best trainer I’ve ever met in my life. She kills you dead every time and is a vibe too ⭐️ The gym itself is a sweaty un- air conditioned CAVE. 0 stars.

Fantastic experience: awesome gym ️‍♀️

Fantastic experience: Honestly Fantastic Gym

Negative experience: Gym is rubbish never any space to use the weights and an opportunity to learn to how to adjust. and when you’re finally on the weights every 10 minutes you get someone asking if you’re finished. This Gym only cares for money and gets it as much packed as possible. There should be limit to the amount of people at a gym

Negative experience: Full of kids!

Positive experience: Efficient. Cheap. Great staff.

Fantastic experience: I have had personal training sessions with Monika for a few months and she has provided me with so much help and motivation to obtain my fitness goals. She is always very flexible when it comes to the sessions so i was able to fit it in and change it according my schedule. She is very thorough and skilled in what she does. Would highly recommend Monika to everyone.

Positive experience: One of the best chain gyms that you can find at the price point they serve. Well maintained, has all the necessary equipment, has a nice vibe, trainers are good. The best part is the flexible nature of the contract and the fact that there's always a branch near you in most parts in London.

Fantastic experience: Good one

Fantastic experience: Like this gym.. good staff, enough classes.. nice equipments

Negative experience: I have been a member of the puregym Kidbrooke for a while and while the facilities are good there have been a number of times where the set up of the classes have been unacceptable. The Boxfit class sounded interesting to us so we booked it. When we arrived at the class the trainer said that we could not do it without boxing gloves and they would not be providing them! Nowhere was this mentioned when we booked it on the app. The trainer said that they tried but could not update the app with the correct description. If this was the case, then Puregym should have contacted all members who had booked to let them know of this. He mentioned that he put signs up in the gym - not very useful if you are booking at home and the first time you have a chance of seeing it is when you show up to the class!!! To be honest, if Puregym want to provide a class they should be providing the equipment for it, if you can't do that then don't provide that class. This is not the first time that we could not do a class due to poor communication. This may be fine for someone who likes the gym but for someone who it takes all there willpower to make it, it is extremely demotivating. When it happens more than once - you lose that customer...

Fantastic experience: I’ve recently finished having PT sessions with Monika. I had 20 in total and really enjoyed every session. Monika was a great PT, pushing me each session to hit new PB’s and tailoring every work out. She was super accommodating if I needed to change the session and worked round my schedule. Highly recommend her to anyone looking to start the gym and become their best selves!

Fantastic experience: Very nice in the morning after 9am

Positive experience: Always an enjoyable workout at Kidbrooke. Really wish the machines were updated though, recently been going to Pure Gym in Crayford which isn’t convenient for me however they have a hip thrust bench and machine. These have been really useful with helping me hit my goals. Would love it kidbrooke had the same machinery as the newer pure gyms popping up!

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Favourite PT is Louis. Always a brilliant class when he is teaching! Knows his stuff, pushes you and makes the workout fun.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to the gym for a few months now and quickly booked in with Conor O'Donoghue for my personal training sessions, he has been amazing and has continuously been able to motivate me and is always available to help me when I’m feeling unmotivated! The sessions with him are so smooth and he is so easy to get on with!! Thank you Conor :)

Positive experience: I am giving Kidbrooke Puregym only 3 stars purely because of the incident with one individual that has not been sorted out. Ben said he would get back to me, and he did not. It seems the Management did not consider my issue as being serious. Furthermore, the Ladies changing room is dirty with unpleasant smell & it has not been a one off. The only pro is the quality of training provided by my PT Kasia. She is very professional & reliable. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is in search of a PT.

Fantastic experience: I'm very happy with my experience. Kasia has been my PT for two months. She's patient, professional, adaptable and has a great attitude. Each session is challenging and fun, she has taught me the principles necessary to confidently exercise by myself. I'm pleased with my progress and her encouragement motivates me to stick to my goals.

Fantastic experience: Nice, spacious and well-equipped gym. PT sessions with Monika are a must. She is professional and provides great guidance to achieve best results. Couldn't be happier with my workout right now!

Fantastic experience: Really nice gym, great layout and range of equipment. Only problem is not everyone puts their equipment away or cleans their equipment. However it's still a really nice gym

Positive experience: Location is perfect for me, staff are nice, and the place is relatively clean and the place is very cheap for the quality you get. Only problem is that it isn’t 24hrs and is missing a couple staple pieces of equipment e.g. hack squat, seated leg curl machine.

Fantastic experience: Monika is an absolute gem of a PT! She’s professional, skilled and fun. Sessions are always enjoyable, sweaty and rewarding. Been working with her since August and I feel so much stronger and confident in the gym- thanks to her guidance. Highly recommend!!

Positive experience: I have been with Pure Kidbrooke after the first lockdown. I used to like it very much, the APP tells you how much people in the gym, what's capacity looks like. Recently I couldn't bear some of the members, because it looks like now a high school teenager gym social media hotspot . I have no problems with anyone or any age group . Some of the members surely I can tell are students , they compete to lift the weights together , takes long time to change one machine to another . It is chaotic now and it does look like after school gathering spot. Once again I have no problems with all sort of people unfortunately they are a bit too much sometime.

Positive experience: It's regularly gets too busy for the amount of machines and equipment this can be at varied times... but it's still good value for money ( it's cheap and local).

Fantastic experience: Really nice gym, very friendly staff esp Monica!

Fantastic experience: Great well equipped clean gym & amazing Personal trainer! Great training sessions from Monika always! She is informative, enthusiastic and very motivating. If you’re looking to tone up or improve your general health, Monika is the perfect trainer. IG Fitnesswithmonika

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Conor in kidbrooke gym he is the best Person Trainer I ever seen in my life, when I started the gym I didn’t know where to start and during the lockdown I have gained weight and I was feeling down and luckily I have met @Coner O’Donoghue who helped me lose 12kg in 6 weeks which make me so happy and he is the most amazing person who always have positive attitude☺️. Thank you so much Conor

Fantastic experience: I've been going to the gym for a month and have lost over half a stone thanks to my fantastic trainer Conor (odonoghue_fitness on Instagram), he's helped me find strength I never knew I had. I couldn't be more grateful for his guidance, support and motivation throughout every session! I can't recommend him enough.

Positive experience: Unfortunately the gym isn’t open 24 hours, it would be good if it was. It might help with some of the footfall. The gym is relatively clean and weights kept in their places. The staff/PT’s have always been friendly I can’t complain about them. The gym does get very busy. And you’ll often find yourself waiting to use equipment or trying to shuffle around people.

Positive experience: I’ve been there two weeks and I already feel fitter very good very hands-on trainers I’m good equipment plus the rest rest drinks machine where you can fill up is really good idea

Positive experience: Good gym. I'd give it 5 star if the cleaning station didn't sometimes run out of paper and fluid for long periods. The gym gets a quite gross with no-one cleaning the equipment.

Fantastic experience: Clean and friendly atmosphere if you like me and prefer training in quiet time go morning/ afternoon after 4 o clock get busy

Positive experience: The gym has a decent variety of equipment but the place is too tightly packed with people and equipment especially in the free weights area. A serious accident is waiting to happen! It is also means a lot of waiting around for equipment

Negative experience: Staff thinks that is above the costumer, stands without doing nothing on equipment while disturbing training and afterwards lies to their manager when exposed. Caution: your personal data is not protected as name and personal details are available to staff which have doubt reputation.

Fantastic experience: I signed up with @frankdoesfitness for Personal Training, I can't recommend him enough. 5 Stars!! Louis @tribefitness_pt & Amanda @befitbeingyou do the best classes! Loads of energy, encouranging and they push you to the end! 5 Stars!! Check out their insta pages. Book the classes via the puregym app. The App I think is great. Offers loads of information. You can manage class bookings and add them to your calendar. Nutritional info and recipes. Workouts and gym plans. It counts your visits and you score achievements/unlock badges. It tells you how many people are in the gym at any one time and predicts average users throughout the day. 10/10 for the App.

Fantastic experience: Empty most of time

Positive experience: Probably the best PureGym branch in the South East. Relatively large cardio area, medium-sized weights area but all the equipment is new which makes a big difference. Changing room and showers are pretty good for a PureGym.

Positive experience: Great classes with very professional staff.. I've enjoyed pretty much all classes I've tried. Parking is available by the aldi and on the road after 6.

Fantastic experience: I was apprehensive about using weights as part of my gym training but Monika has diminished any negative thoughts, she is very encouraging and emits positivity throughout the training session. Monika showed how to perform each exercise correctly and pushes when motivation is needed. She gives me the confidence that I will be able to reach my weight loss goals.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic

Positive experience: Can somebody tell me when the gym turned into a beach club / influencer house ? I only ask as today there was a bloke strutting around and performing squats topless (in between posing at himself in the mirror and getting his mate to video him). There are groups of youngsters who are quite obviously below the age of 16 occupying equipment for long periods..mind you some other members appear to think it is acceptable to occupy racks / smith machines for an hour as witnessed on several occasions too.

Fantastic experience: Spinning classes conducted by the trainers Aaron, Conor and Monika are extremely good wherein one can truly experience a wholesome cardio workout.

Positive experience: Good gym can get a little busy at peak times

Negative experience: Most of the sanitizers are always empty, and when people are meant to be wearing mask not one person had one on and staff don't day anything

Positive experience: Nice place to train, lots of space and equipment.

Positive experience: Bit cramped but a good place to train.

Fantastic experience: I’m leaving this review for @Frankdoesfitness Who is my Personal trainer. When I first started my PT sessions with Frank I didn’t have a clue how to exercise properly ,but with Frank’s help, support and encouragement I began improving week after week. Frank tailored a programme for my needs and gave me nutrition advice, within weeks I began to see results. I now enjoy using the gym and look forward to my PT seasons with Frank.

Fantastic experience: Great place to work out and staff are always friendly.

Fantastic experience: I’m leaving this review for @FrankDoesFitness. This Personal trainer has given me confidence to get back in the gym and always pushes me to go out of my comfort zone. As a PT he is always smiling,friendly and approachable. Frank’s classes are full of energy and encouragement, he delivers high quality coaching with professionalism and kindness.

Negative experience: Please find a better manager! The current one is so rude and unfriendly! Many thanks

Positive experience: Good facilities nice place to workout

Fantastic experience: Clean, well stocked, well priced and you rarely have to wait for kit.

Fantastic experience: Nice clean gym

Positive experience: Nice gym and location. It would be ideal to have a proper bike storage shed/space as just locking bikes to the outside railing isn't secure. It would also help women feel safer if they had the option to cycle and store their bicycle safely, as opposed to using buses/walking there, especially given the current climate.

Positive experience: Love the strength classes!! Just wish they did box fit classes with actual pads and gloves like at Greenwich so I don't have to keep travelling there

Fantastic experience: All what do you need is start to work out! The gym has all what do you need!

Positive experience: Just like most pure gyms, basic equipments. Wasn't very crowded at my time of visit (Thursday afternoon). Reasonable sized free weights area. Little functional area, toilets were clean.

Fantastic experience: Ben has been my PT for over a year. In that time I've dropped two dress sizes, toned and increased my overall fitness level. I've developed an actual passion for fitness and that is only because of Bens knowledge, passion, professionalism and dedication for what he does.

Fantastic experience: Modern, clean gym with good classes. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I would like to give a review to mt PT @Theodoramasha for a high level of the training who does with me.And it motivates me to reach my limits and even to exceed them, after a workout with her I feel better and eager to move on. I want to thank her on this way. One of the best PT

Fantastic experience: Only started getting back into the gym recently, and this is the perfect gym for it. Try and come early as it gets quite busy fairly early in the afternoon.

Fantastic experience: Today at the PureGym was very good. I found the staff friendly and helpful.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with all the facilities I feel you could need! Would level up if it had yoga classes

Fantastic experience: This PureGym is clean fresh and a great environment to work out in

Positive experience: Nice gym, friendly staff. Feels safe and clean. Gets busy at peak times

Positive experience: Big spacious gym

Fantastic experience: Nice spacious gym with all the kit one needs for a good workout

Fantastic experience: I'm joining this gym so I can train with PT @FrankDoesFitness there, I've been training with him outdoors during lockdown and it's been great, can't wait to see what he's got in store once the gym reopens!

Fantastic experience: My PT @frankdoesfitness runs a very respectful business. He is also a top quality trainer. I come out of every session having pushed myself to new limits I didn’t know I had. He is positive and encouraging. He cares about the well-being of his clients and promotes mental health as well as physical. He is also great for advice about nutrition. I would recommend him to anyone, male or female, gym expert, or newbie.

Fantastic experience: I would like to give a review for the personal trainer called @FrankDoesFitness for a high level of the training with which he has been providing me. Not only has he elevated my fitness to another level and helped me to get lean via introducing new exercises to my training which I can even continue doing in between my training days at home; he has also created a bespoke training to meet my needs of learning how to defend myself, increase my self-belief via teaching me boxing techniques. Frank knows how to push me outside my comfort zone, increase my performance while keeping me motivated. Frank is innovative in his training approach with a high quality equipment. When I leave Frank's session, I feel good in my mind and body.

Positive experience: Great atmosphere

Negative experience: Can be busy sometimes. Best time to training is after 16.30 on weekdays. Be aware of the loud music in the far corner of the funcional classes. Not good at all. Needs to be reviewed by management. Some of the Pt's when are at the small "reception" balcony near the entrance, do not engage at all with the members prefering be entertained with phones and other gadgets...A very bad image of someone who's leading with the public. The equipment needs a decent cleaning, full of dust. Toilets (males) need a better and hourly checking instead 3 or 4 times a day...if we consider the number of members that the gym have this is insufficient...

Fantastic experience: Accessible, good range of equipment, weights and track. Kitted out for COVID

Fantastic experience: Always clean and classes are amazing!

Fantastic experience: Love it here! They adhere to social distancing. Very clean. Staff wear their masks. Even the customers ensure they wipe down after using equipment

Fantastic experience: Love it here. Shame it will be closed for a month

Fantastic experience: Very good
