The Green Mile Training Camp

Fantastic experience: We spent a couple of company team building afternoons with the team at Green Mile. They were great beforehand preparing the event for us and at the events themselves. The site is vast and brilliant for outdoor activities, the team were motivational and the catering they arranged for us was excellent as well.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic team building day. The whole company thoroughly enjoyed the focus on health, wellbeing and quality time together. Plus the food was delicious. Thank you Green Mile for a great day! :)

Fantastic experience: Booked for Bedwas U12s to attend a team building day here. They all absolutely loved it and learnt so much about themselves and their team mates. Staff highly trained and were amazing with the boys. Thank you all for a fab team building day today.

Fantastic experience: I took my team of managers with high expectations based on feedback I had read and heard from others. The objective was to leave with my managers having a greater sense of accountability and belief in themselves! To say Chris exceeded my expectations would be an understatement. The day they tailored for us was spot on. It spoke directly to each individual, the physical activity was achievable by all and all felt they contributed. The Fire and Ice activity was one I was nervous about myself but was phenomenal because of how Chris walked and coached us through the mental challenge of it all. I will certainly be returning to The Green Mile with future teams in my years to come. Thanks for an awesome experience Chris & Josh!

Fantastic experience: We took 24 Fire Service recruits up to the Green Mile for their first day of our training course. They learnt how far they can actually push themselves, teamwork, resilience and how to cope with stressful situations. It was the perfect way to begin a 30year career in the Fire Service.

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience ever and amazing staff! Thank you for this incredible day. ☺️ See you next time

Fantastic experience: Best experience ever! A big thank you to Chris and Josh organising it! Thank you for pushing us to our physical and mental limits. This experience was not only a test for some of us but an amazing journey of personal and team growth! See you in January or March

Fantastic experience: Incredible day with amazing people! Chris and Josh are really amazing. I can’t wait to do this again next year! Thank you guys, we have pushed hard and it was one of the best thing I have ever done!

Fantastic experience: What an amazing experience it has been. It was cold, muddy, sandy, exhausting, and relaxing. Massive physical and mental boost, great teambuilding and Chris with Josh were amazing mentors. Super helpful, inspirational, polite, but also can very push you out of your comfortable zone. Couldn’t recommend more! 10/10 experience and I can’t wait to be back in March.

Fantastic experience: Such a friendly and welcoming environment definitely recommend to anyone who wants to clear their head!

Fantastic experience: As always amazing set up here! Chris and Josh are always so welcoming and friendly! The team up there are really fab, from the yoga teachers to the coaches up there. Really good opportunity to do if you want a staff outing as well! We spent the whole day up there, from Pasture, doing fire and ice, yoga, bbq and a beasting in the morning! Really brings the team closer together, and brings people out of their comfort zone! See you all soon, Annalie

Fantastic experience: Had an incredible experience with the team and couldn't recommend doing this enough looking for some team building. We enjoyed it so much, another session is already in the works. 10/10

Fantastic experience: I arranged a large group from our gym to visit The Green Mile recently and we took part in a sample of The Green Mile itself along with Fire & Ice experience, Rope Climbing and Yoga! The whole experience was fantastic from Josh planning the day with me to the delivery on the day by the team, who are very knowledgable and made the experience enjoyable for everyone - especially those who felt very out of their comfort zones. We all experienced activities that we never would have done before and we all learnt new skills - from rope climbs & pull ups to breathing techniques. We can't wait to return next year with even more members and more challenges. Thank you Josh & the team - see you soon! Team Titan x

Fantastic experience: Amazing views of Garth mountain, nestled in the mountainous range near Castell Coch..... just awe-inspiring; the cold water pool is 6degrees C and the warmth of the safari tent is fantastic.

Fantastic experience: We took our U14 Ice Hockey team and can’t praise Chris & The Green Mile team enough. They delivered a superb event. The communication throughout the day was second to none. The motivation & support offered to the kids whilst being pushed through activities out of their comfort zone was inspiring.

Fantastic experience: We attended as a group from the warehouse gym in port talbot for a 50th birthday treat A number of us were very nervous but the hosts josh n jo quickly put us at ease by getting us to dunk in an ice bath which soon prepared us for what was in store. Yes it was hard and challenging but they were so encouraging and despite not bring able to do some of the activities they were not judgemental. Good footwear is essential as lots of the tracks had loose stone and be prepared to be muddy and wet. The hot and cold experience though was just amazing and once again josh and Jo were very informative and inspirational and from complaining initially in the 30 second dunk to a 3-minute long session endured purely by implementing the breathing techniques taught was just incredible. We came away feeling proud of ourselves and vowing to return. Thank you all so much for your patience and inspiration.

Fantastic experience: What a great experience for our U15s player and adults. The Greenmile team were brilliant. They explained what they were going to do and the attitude and effort required for the session and how it can translate into life skills going forward. They really pushed the boys to their limits, and at the same time ensuring they didn't give up when it would have been easier to do so. We will definitely be going back. Thank you to the Greenmile team

Fantastic experience: Excellent facilities, fantastic experience. Very physical but enjoyable

Fantastic experience: We were so impressed with The Green Mile Experience. Their friendly but very professional and knowledgeable staff are exemplary. The communication and information before we arrived was excellent. Our staff were invited for a pre visit and we were in constant communication to plan the day for our boys in order to suit their pre season training needs. We took our U18s Academy players as a pre season training day. The facilities are excellent and what the boys experienced and the lessons they have taken away will stay with them for a long time and will help them maintain and achieve success this season and future seasons. During the day our players’ faced their fears – worked on problem solving, worked in a team and motivated others as well as improving performance breathing and sleeping. The ‘fire and Ice’ recovery session in the afternoon was excellent. The boys were focussed and thoroughly enjoyed this as it was something different. I would highly recommend Green Mile to any club/ team who is looking for a day to work on team cohesion, resilience, determination, recovery and focus. We will definitely be using Green Mile again. Since our return to the club the boys have continued to talk highly of the day and tell others how good the day was. Well done to all the Green Mile Staff. We wish you every success. A fantastic day for BCFC U18s.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic group of staff, environment, and tools to engage, teach, and develop the younger generation on physical and mental resilience. Highly recommend !!

Fantastic experience: Amazing! We took our football team and it was the most amazing experience. Professional and amazingly run. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience, took our U13's there and all of us cannot wait to go back. The instructors and all the staff are so encouraging, firm but fair. Would highly recommend to any sports team / businesses / groups to experience it. Facilities are first class.

Fantastic experience: We took our U13 rugby team for a great experience - we did the training camp, fire and ice, and some team bonding in the log cabin. It was a superb day, the instructors pitched everything perfectly to the lads. We would highly recommend and we will be going back. Thanks guys

Fantastic experience: Had a fantastic Team Building Session led by Josh for our U16s Team. Challenging and fun session which the boys really enjoyed. Looking forward to a return visit! Llandaff RFC U16s

Fantastic experience: A fantastic day out for team building/leadership. Staff and facilities were brilliant.

Fantastic experience: What an awesome experience.

Fantastic experience: A truly brilliant experience of hot and cold therapy in beautiful surroundings.

Fantastic experience: It's hard to put into words how good this place is, you've gotta go there and experience it for yourself. Josh, Chris and Craig are so welcoming, supportive and encouraging helping you push yourself to new levels physically and mentally. There was the perfect balance of everything, from breathwork to climbing ropes to team challenges to muddy wet crawls and I'm so excited to go back and do it again. If you're after an experience you won't ever forget then hurry up and get to Green Mile Training Camp! You'll come away feeling like a new (and improved) version of yourself.

Fantastic experience: What an experience! A day I’ll never forget.

Fantastic experience: Myself and a few friends booked onto The Green Mile Open and it was nothing short of amazing! Genuinely couldn't believe how knowledgeable the coaches were. It was another level! They pushed you but in the best way; they made you believe that anything was possible if you set your mind to it. I can not recommend this enough to anyone who fancies a challenge and wants to learn more about themselves. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Also, THE BEST BBQ afterwards.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic team building experience led by inspirational staff. Throughly enjoyed by all. Great day.

Fantastic experience: I've learned so much about myself. How resilient the body is, how resilient the mind is and how capable I am learning new skills. Would highly recommend for any team building event as this one of the best I have done if not, the best.

Fantastic experience: Unique set up, fantastic work outs, really enjoyed it

Fantastic experience: Love this outdoor gym. The lads who run it, keep the training engaging, and accommodate all abilities. Brilliant resource in Taff's Well.

Fantastic experience: We recently took our U11's rugby team to the GreenMile training camp and I cannot recommend it enough. The boys and girls had a blast and learned some invaluable lessons. It's a fantastic venue and wonderful experience. The staff were fantastic throughout and it was delivered very professionally.

Fantastic experience: Great set up and great instructors,if you need a challenge try the man down events

Fantastic experience: Drew McIntyre was here.

Fantastic experience: A great set up, run by very friendly and knowledgeable staff! Would recommend time and time again…

Fantastic experience: Great team, great classes, have been recommending to everybody.

Fantastic experience: There is not better place to train outdoor! One of the best trainings I’ve ever done, the amount of motivation and encouragement you get is just amazing.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic. Pushed well and truly outside of my comfort zone, go beyond. Dig deep and you can achieve. Thanks to all the staff for the encouragement. Keep on moving.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic venue to try something different! Led by knowledgeable instructors for all levels. Would highly recommend for groups and corporate team bonding

Fantastic experience: Absolutely loved our session with The Green Mile today, we brought 30 members from our gym of all fitness levels and they catered for everyone! We all came away smiling, aching and planning our next event with them! Awesome, you won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: Amazing facility, lovely team with a wealth of knowledge and experience. Would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys working out and is looking to get outdoors more. There's nowhere else quite like it.

Fantastic experience: Although entitled "Lads & Dads" we actually went as a family of four - two lads & Mum & Dad! This was a fantastic morning and Chris was thoroughly engaging and informative from the off. Chris is a great guy who was so very passionate and enthusiastic about the course we were about to embark on and it's certainly something that each and everyone should experience...basic survival but so massively enjoyable. May we take this opportunity to not only thank Chris for his time but also Josh who took the time trouble, effort and patience to interact with both our sixteen and seven year old. All questions were answered and we came away beaming and majorly informed. These guys definitely deserve a visit and we're confident that anyone who books this course will be buzzing upon their return journey home! Thanks once again fellas....five stars all the way!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fantastic experience: Awesome fun

Fantastic experience: Attended the 'Dads 'n' Lads' session on Sunday the 13th February 2022 with my 9 year old son Harley. First site of the GMTC is very impressive. Set in beautiful Welsh country you immediately feel that you are 'in the wilds' despite being only a stone's throw away from the A470. We were met by Chris at the training camp who introduced himself and explained what would be going on during the session. From the get go you felt that you were in the company of someone with a wealth of experience in this field and a real desire to impart that knowledge in the attendees. There is something here for everyone. Whilst the kids love the dirt, the leaves and jumping in the stream to collect pebbles for their water filters you could sense that the dads (myself included) were desperate for Chris to regale us with more and more military anecdotes. A short walk from the RV point sees you at a cabin where the primary training takes place. Chris spoke to the kids and us Dad's about three primary objectives when looking to survive in the wild; shelter, water and fire. He was engaging and approachable throughout and responded to questions from both the old 'uns and young 'uns with equal enthusiasm and humour. Josh attended part way through and added a further positive dynamic to the group activities by ensuring that people were enjoying themselves and able to undertake some of the tasks that Chris had given to us. Between Chris and Josh you never felt isolated or forgotten or just a number in and amongst other attendees. It felt very much like you were under their personal tutelage. Harley had a blast and would have been quite happy spending the day foraging, building things and lighting fires. He did try to get me to allow him to jump into the plunge pool but I'm not sure his mother would have been best pleased so I politely declined his request. Chris was engaging and approachable throughout and demonstrated a clear empathy for the kids in the room who varied in ages. Whilst it is entitled "Dads 'n' Lads' it would suit anyone: mums 'n' lasses, grandparents and grandkids. It's really for anyone who wants to rebuild a connection with the land around them and nature generally. If you're of an age where you used to play in the fields or woods as a kid then you'll no doubt love watching your kids/grandkids/nephews and nieces etc. getting dirt on their hands instead of Xbox RSI. What was abundantly clear from speaking to Chris and Josh after the session was that, unlike many businesses, theirs is built on a more philanthropic ethos. You got the sense that whilst building a successful business was a key element, it wasn't the only one and that there was something that went beyond maximising profit and treating participants as data points and commodities. It was refreshing and inspiring. If you're thinking of it, don't hesitate. You won't be disappointed. Myself and Harley intend on signing up for any new courses that Chris and Josh intend to run in the future. In a world that seems to becoming increasingly more difficult to navigate and complex for kids, this is just the ticket. Back to nature, back to family and back to us all being kids playing in the woods!

Fantastic experience: Had a great time, it is nice to get out of the gym every now and then to exercise in the great outdoors. Staff were really nice also.

Fantastic experience: Such a great facility with awesome instructors. Always challenging but suitable and adaptable for everyone. And fun! Love it here.

Fantastic experience: Second visit last Saturday and all 40 members attending absolutely loved it. Challenging but fun. Chris and Josh really looks after everyone, whatever their ability. Cant recommend highly enough!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic events for fitness the whole set up has been thoroughly well thought out well done to trainers ypu are doing an awesome job

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love The green mile training camp! If you want another level of training outside of the gym and level up your fitness, then this if definitely the place you want to come! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: The Green Mile Training Camp is a one-of-a-kind place to challenge yourself with exercise and functional fitness that you've never tried before. I'd been keen to train outside for a while but never knew where to start as public workout spaces don't cater for beginners and don't offer a massive range of things to try. The guys at the camp are welcoming, supportive, and so so invested in making everyone's session amazing, regardless of experience. I'm absolutely thrilled to be a part of it, and excited to see how far I can go

Fantastic experience: Top training facility for real fitness with dedicated and motivated coaches. Definitely becoming a regular!

Fantastic experience: Great time with good friends

Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed the callisthenics class and already booked a next one! Will post a photo the next time we go.

Fantastic experience: Great space and very nice program. I highly recommend it.
