BLAZE Gym: Opinions
Fantastic experience: This has got to be the best gym in the area. Great equipment and great staff. It's the perfect environment for a good workout. Nice and quiet and not over packed so your not waiting around for a machine. I fully recommend using blaze gym!
Thank you, we're bringing in more over the next 12 months.

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, facilities and friendly staff
Thanks
Fantastic experience: Blaze Gym has been amazing! The staff is friendly and supportive. They made it easy to freeze my membership during a medical issue and were very understanding. I appreciate their professionalism and can't wait to rejoin and upgrade to the Blaze Self plan when I return. Highly recommend!
Welcome. Thank you
Negative experience: Owners are complete liars. Called in a week before asking if they had day passes.. they said yes I even told them when I was coming. Turned up and suddenly they said no gym passes. Son of owner also extremely rude avoid at all costs.
Just to confirm we do not sell day passes. This option doesn't exist on our website. This is a members only club who have the privileges of brining a friend along on the last weekend of the month. This is a offer deal. On the same note we cannot offer you a free-trial. Wishing you all the best
Negative experience: Manager left me no choice but terminate my membership the disappointment regarding an incident involving the gym manager that has profoundly impacted my experience. As an off-peak member, I visited the gym around 3 PM, but due to work calls, I couldn't conclude my workout before 4 PM. To my surprise, the manager publicly scolded me, asking me to leave in front of other members, and subsequently terminated my membership. This unnecessary and humiliating confrontation was solely orchestrated by the manager, and their behavior made me feel incredibly unwelcome. After two years of dedicated membership, this treatment is not only disheartening but also completely unacceptable. The pricing structure for off-peak members, paying the same as new joiners minus a questionable 25% discount, raises concerns about fairness.A new member can enjoy peak membership benefits with same price but repeating member would get nothing but bad experience.
Hi Alaka, All access into the Club in controlled electronically and has been for many years now. Our off-peak membership times are highlighted on our website for all to see. In addition the same reminder is given when joining. This has been the case for many years and its nothing new. As a community club, we need to ensure the system is fair for all. If an off-peak member stayed beyond then this would be completely unfair to members that pay the peak membership. I don't think reminding you the times would constitute as scolding, we wouldn't do that. This is a local run Club. As already mentioned our prices, times and conditions are available for all to see and its crystal clear when signing-up. As for offers that we issue these are for a limited period and like any Business we are allowed to advertise and provide offers. Furthermore, we offer the latest equipment at very good prices (and that's without any offers). As you say you have been a member for a long time so I would assume the club was to your liking. We cannot and will not bend our own rules to accommodate any work calls. We need to keep it fair for all members. Apologies and wishing you all the best.
Fantastic experience: The best gym in this area. Parking literally next door! I’ve been referring my friends and get discounts in the app. Bigger than I thought as it’s on both floors.
Thank you, appreciate the picture
Positive experience: I agree to the comment below about the air conditioners. It’s cold. I’m a breastfeeding mum and it’s the second week I’m sneezing the next day after visiting this gym.
Happy to turn the cooling down. We need to keep within a specific range. Please ring the bell on your next visit and we can set this within our guidelines.
Fantastic experience: I was a member here for a few years and it has always been a great place to work out. It's always clean, has a broad range of classes (the virtual classes set up is a highlight), and even though its a small gym there's always space for you.
Thank you, we are adding more classes and now looking to do even more..
Fantastic experience: The gym is nice and very clean. Great machines and lots of equipment. The one thing I don’t like that conditioners are always on and you can’t exercise in a T-shirt as it’s freezing cold. That’s too much for winter time.
Fantastic experience: Nice modern facilities , helpful staff , all round a great gym
Hi Evie, We really appreciate your review. Really great to hear your feedback. Thanks again Evie. Kindest Regards, Blaze Gym
Fantastic experience: I've only been a member a week but it's a great environment, loads of equipment and I was happy to see a fairly even 50/50 split of male and female members. Very happy and motivated to get strong
Hi Anne, So happy to have you as part of our community based club. Good to hear again from members of the great atmosphere. Brilliant to hear your motivated to get strong if you need any help along the way we are always available. Thanks for the great review.
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed my time at the gym. The staff and community at the gym are always friendly to me. I would 100% recommend to anyone!
Great to hear Steven . We are really pleased to hear you enjoyed training at our club. Even better to hear you enjoyed the friendly atmosphere at the club from both the members and the staff. We strive to be a community based club and welcoming to everyone. Happy to hear it reflect in your feedback mate.
Fantastic experience: Really friendly staff and owner
Thanks Paul, we really appreciate the review happy to hear your enjoying training in the club and being around the staff.
Fantastic experience: Great equipment and great team. Super friendly and being somewhat of a beginner in the gym I feel really comfortable training here.
Hey Lily, We greatly appreciate the review. Really happy to hear your enjoying the club. This is exactly what we love to hear from our members. Glad to be creating a positive, comfortable and friendly space for you to train. We strive to be family friendly club, and it’s great to see members agree with this. We hope you continue to enjoy the club and also all the new classes that are on the way.
Negative experience: If I could I would leave -1 for the customer service. This gym got long way away to go to a hive even basic of the customer service. System in place always has different issues and gentlemen who’s running the gym young and inexperienced as an individual, who’s got a long way to go to be in a managers role. I was using gym purely for the classes and I Phina the instructor is absolutely amazing and one of the best instructors I’ve came across, however I am not scoring here service of one instructor I’m scoring here for the experience I’ve had with the gym itself.
Dear Alesya, It is important for us to address your concerns directly. While we understand that everyone's encounters can differ, we would also like to address that any inappropriate conduct and divergence from the principles we uphold will not be tolerated by the club. Maintaining respectful communication hinges on sustaining an atmosphere of positivity and support for all our members and staff. We have clear class booking rules in place to ensure fairness for all of our very much valued members. If these are ignored on multiple occasions then our automated system takes clear action to ensure all members get a fair chance of booking and not having members not show up and taking places, on all of our great classes. Which as many members have commented is a system that really makes our booking system surpass many booking systems they've come across. We have built our community club on the bases of clarity and treating all members fairly and most importantly having a respectful environment. Finally, both the club, staff and instructors have really come a long way to build a family-friendly, local facility. This will forever be our most important principle when operating our facilities to our dear members. We dearly wish you all the best. Kindest Regards, BLAZE Gym
Fantastic experience: Would recommend gym. Local, clean and has everything you need.
Thanks, John we really appreciate your review and feedback.

Appreciated Kamil.
Fantastic experience: I have been pleasantly surprised, and have found Blaze to be very professional and super clean. They have created a great ambience and safe place for you to work out with confidence. Staff are very friendly and reassuring and always looking to answer any questions you have. If you like classes they have an extensive timetable, with many instructor led classes available.
Thanks Meenu. We appreciate your review. Great to hear your enjoying the club. Enjoy all the new classes.
Positive experience: Small
Positive experience: Nice little gym which can often feel like my personal gym when it's quite but could do with a proper deep clean, quite dusty in areas and spider webs. Please be a bit more thorough and regular with the cleaning especially in and around the machines.
We take pride in our Club, members and the facilities. In addition to cleaning throughout the day, we have a external cleaners come onsite and deep clean. We like to have the club looking fresh and clean.
Fantastic experience: Great class 5*

Great member and appreciate your honest feedback
Fantastic experience: Quick sign-up, friendly and helpful staff, clean and fresh! What more could you want if you have a busy schedule! Very pleased to have joined Blaze after a long 'pause' on my fitness with reasonable membership prices and no joining fee! Plus the app is fantastic for booking classes and easy entry!

Thank you
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of this gym for over 3 years, I really enjoy all the classes especially spin. There are many improvements from the facilities I used so far. The people are very friendly and polite.
Valued member with honest feedback, really appreciated
Fantastic experience: Blaze gym is in the perfect location with modern new equipment in a hygienic environment. My fav part of the gym is the classes as that’s the only thing I use now as they are varied throughout the week and you can get a good workout in 45 mins with great music - especially bike and rhythm with the disco ball! It’s a great place to make friends as well! Highly recommend signing up
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Blaze gym is one of the gyms that have the best equipment in East London. Everyone from the instructors to the members are kind and welcoming the environment is close-to-home excitement. I will highly recommend blazegym anytime anyway!!! Phina
Your amazing too, appreciate the kind words
Fantastic experience: Great gym with all the machines I need to get a good workout in would recommend to anyone looking to find a gym
Thank you, appreciated. We're investing into our members and club. More new equipment on its way.
Negative experience: Absolutely terrible experience! 5 months after end of the contractual membership period they still keep taking payments. No acknowledgement to my emails initially until I had to visit in person to get their attention. Really disappointed with this gym. Definitely DO NOT recommend!
Fantastic experience: Love this gym. It has a wonderful atmosphere and relaxed vibe. It offers a bit of everything, with a great selection of kit and classes. I always enjoy my time there and can't recommend it enough.
Appreciate your honest feedback Claire
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym with all the equipment you need. Clean, airy, and great value for money. Definitely the best Gym in Waltham Forest!
Thanks Katerina
Fantastic experience: Good gym. Clean and good music! Thanks guys you deserve the 5 stars. Love the updates downstairs.
Positive experience: Good small gym, modern equipment, however is missing a few basic equipment that are definitely required to make this place better. Wish they had real mirrors as there are a lot of plastic warped mirrors in place of real ones. Additional weight plated machines have been added which is great, hopefully more to follow which will make this place perfect.
Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Blaze Gym for over 3 years and I can honestly say that it is one of the best gyms I have ever been to. The staff are so friendly and make you feel wanted They have more than enough equipment so you can get a great workout. And it is never that busy that you can't use what you want. Overall it is a great place to train and get the results you are looking for. We'll done Blaze
Thank you for your kind words Ainsley, really appreciated. We will continue to go even further.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant people running the gym, cannot fault Dee and his family. They are always striving to improve the gym and the space and asking members for feedback. A really good space for exercising, great value for money and does not get too busy! Would recommend!
Callum, thank you for your review and kind words. Thanks to all the local support the club now offers, number one facilities at local prices. We're constantly looking to raise the club profile higher and higher, while keeping our prices low and having a safe, comfortable environment to train. And yes, we're installing even more new kit later this year!
Negative experience: Very small place and just a pair of each weight.the bench is always bending and they have plastic mirrors which is better remove than have it on the wall. And the too young and disinterested staff don't know all the information. The lockers are not large enough. And I don't know why so many times they put cartoons on television instead of putting beautiful images accompanied by energetic music podiums
Apologies but we don't have any member registered here with this name. Are you sure it was us that you visited. All our Machines are hi-tech and have internet and TV. We have premium kit at affordable prices, serving the local community. Unfortunately, we cannot control what the two UK main TV channels broadcast and when. However our members are able to select the channels of their choice on our machines. Just for clarification, we're Blaze and located on two floors with free parking and state-of-art equipment. Happy to show you around.
Fantastic experience: I can honestly say one of the best gyms i have gone to. has all the essentials and very clean. Owner Dee very friendly and always ensured his customers are comfortable and happy. thank you D for your services. would 100% recommend for locals or even those in the area that just need a quick work out you :) thanks again D
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this gym. Good quality equipment, very clean, adequate space and helpful staff.
Fantastic experience: Süper
Negative experience: First bad experience: I went to this Gym to meet someone to give me a tour. No one came on the decided time, so I had to leave. Second bad experience: I came to the gym, I didn't understand the classes are on a big screen, I didn't expect that. Not great. Third bad experience: I got started on a Barre class (alone in the studio) it was supposed to be for 30 min but stopped after 15 minutes. No one could answer me why or give me some guidance. It said 30 min on the schedule. Forth bad experience: I lost my credit cards in the studio, I was walking around and they must have fallen out from the little pocket on my phone.. Basically someone in the Gym must have found them and not handed them in, because I had them when I arrived but not when I left. The staff was a bit rude about it and not very supportive. Upset with the whole day and wish to never come back Would obvs not re
You lost your cards in the Club by no fault of our own or any member. When a member found these and kindly handed them in, you were contacted, your partner was contacted too. The next day you came to collect these and we reminded you that there was some cash in addition to the lost cards, which we then gave back to you. As opposed to a thank you, we cannot understand how we qualified for a one star and were not supportive? We thank the kind member who handed in your items to us and the staff who then proactively got in touch with you.
Fantastic experience: Great little gym, has everything you need! Always space to train in there, great for the local community. Really friendly and the staff cant do enough to help you.
Fantastic experience: Very nice and clean gym.All the classes are excellent. Spin bodypump and combat are amazing class instructors are very friendly and polite. Love it.
Thank you Sadaf, appreciated
Fantastic experience: Joined this gym as it was close to my home. Very good, never crowded, all the machines are fairly new and have tv on them, youtube, even personal builtin fan/aircon awesome music to keep you entertained and motivated. Staff are friendly, classes are fun, any weights and equipment that I need are there. Everything is clean, and other members of the club are considerate and wipe the equipment after themselves. All antibac sprays are provided as well as drinking water. Nothing to complain about perfect.
Thank you and we'll continue to exceed on this.
Positive experience: A nice gym. Compact but not crowded. Good quality equipment and hygiene practices. It's quite a lovely gym for the Highams park area. I would describe it as an intermediate level gym. However, it is also quite welcoming to newbies. The price is a little higher than what commercial gyms offer, but for the convenience, I would say it's worth it. Additional comment: They have added a dip station which is great and a highly integral part of any gym. I have updated my review to 4 stars instead of 5 as I am noticing an increase of children in the gym lately.
Appreciated
Negative experience: Really disappointed with this gym. They keep taking multiple payments monthly, it's the 3rd time this has happened. Within the past 2 weeks I've emailed them four times, and I've still not had a response. I have however received leaflets through my door advertising the gym. I can't help but think they may not need to waste money on leaflets if they actually responded to their existing customers emails! Trying to now cancel, but still not had a response. I may well have to block the DD with my bank. Definitely DO NOT recommend!
Really sorry for this and as already explained this was caused by the change of our third party CRM, system in during lockdown. We've stated multiple times that we will refund any monies taken and this was out of our control. We're one of the few Gyms that froze membership payments during a global pandemic.
Negative experience: Very bad customer service
Negative experience: Well unfortunately I second 10plumy review made before. Based on my experience, 10plumy review is balanced and fair. When I joined I specifically said that I was only interested in the classes, spinning in particular. If I knew what I know now I wouldn't have joined - There might be a good number of classes for a small gym but it's almost impossible to book a class. The classes are over subscribed but they'll happily take the monthly subscription. I say this because I've raised my issue numerous of times via email but I'm being ignored so that tells me that they only care about getting the money! But I must say that when I've managed to get onto a class they have been decent - there are some good instructors like Ryan; he is polite also! I only joined this gym because I couldn't get to Boom Cycle in Holborn - boy have I been spoilt by Boom! I appreciate that during the pandemic it's a difficult time for every business but there's no excuse to disregard emails from a customer. Perhaps I'll get a response after this public complaint. . . I really shouldn't have to do this! Also I've never attended a gym where customers are instructed to put back the spinning bikes after the class - not a H&S expert but I can't help wonder what would happen if ever a customer hurts themselves whilst helping to put away a bike. . .
Hi Emma, as discussed we had replied on the same day as your review. As we had promised, we're now launching over 90+ classes per week. We're having to work around the tight guidelines and ensuring all members are safe. We're now running more classes than every to cater for all.
Fantastic experience: I've been a member of blaze since they first opened in 2017, and I feel the current team of instructors is the strongest they've had. The gym isn't massive, but has all the equipment you need, and they are very up on cleaning, especially important now. The classes are excellent, and the instructors really tailor them to the participants, so if you're brand new, or been training for years, you'll still be challenged. Lastly, I like the personal feel of the gym. The instructors get to know the members, and make you feel part of the community. They've really helped me with my fitness goals, work around injuries, and continue to push me, and others, to be the best they can be.
Ciaran, its a pleasure to have you as a member, much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: I have been a member since 2019, I have enjoyed working out at Blaze Gym. The team members are so friendly and welcoming which adds a positive vibe to the place. Would highly recommend trying out their bootcamp!
Perfect
Negative experience: Really great gym with some great classes and equipment. Unfortunately if your looking to get on those classes it's almost impossible to do so. Every class is fully booked within seconds of them being placed on the app. I am basically paying for the chance to be lucky enough to get on to a class. If your looking at joining I would honestly just find somewhere else until they address the issue.
Negative experience: Way too expensive for the facilities on offer. No changing rooms or washing facilities. Very small gym with limit equipment. Also they contacted me to offer memberships when I had actually sent them an enquiry about the facilities available. The guy who rang me was obviously just handed my number with no context.... to make it worse they now send me unsolicited marketing texts.
Hi Pobin, It seems you may have visited another gym as opposed to our Studio. We have dedicated mens and ladies changes rooms, along with showers for each. We have state-of-art machinery and operate on two floors. We are proud of our hard working staff.
Negative experience: Expensive , trainers with no respect! I don't recommend!
Negative experience: Worst gym in London working in to 8 a clock
Fantastic experience: Best gym for space cleanliness and friendly staff going regular Thanks guys
Positive experience: Nice place, free parking next door with Tesco. Really nice brand new equipment, and lovely staff. Only down side is how small this gym is. When I say small I mean tiny. For how much you pay it's probably not worth it. You would get better value elsewhere
Negative experience: Check the small prints, you have to send an email in order to cancel your membership, do they tell you that? No. Do you get a copy of the contract? No. Is this written on the website? No. Do you have an option to cancel your membership on the website? No. Just a small print on the contract when you sign, so they can make more money. Who cares about customer service.
Fantastic experience: Good classes, everything you need
Fantastic experience: Great gym !! Friendly helpful staff
Positive experience: This is not quite a gym in the conventional sense. It is somewhere between a gym and having a personal trainer. Different approach and for me it seems to be working.
