Really high level of coaching across all the disciplines and the staff are friendly and welcoming. They’ve made starting martial arts feel like one of my best decisions and would recommend to anyone. Everyone in the gym works as a team and always help with anything you need. The atmosphere in there is great every night of the week!
Been coming to this gym for over 7 years now on and off. Every time I return am welcomed and feel part of the team - if you're a casual grappler or more competition focused this gym is great and will support you
I recommend the club, the coaches clearly have a great approach to children, a nice atmosphere and climate, my grandchildren attend for 5 and 10 years, a lot of work on coordination, concentration and physical development.
Trained at Lions Gym when they 1st open over 10 years ago. I achieved my black belt in BJJ thanks to the incredible coaches, team, and supportive environment!
Always learning and improving. The level of coaching is 2nd to none which filters down to all that train there.
My nephew has also started his BJJ journey at Lions Gym where there is wealth of knowledge and coaching to support him throughout his journey
Best gym in town! I can’t recommend the kickboxing classes at Lions Gym in Coventry enough. Coaches James and Mak are doing an absolutely fantastic job, especially with the kids. They’re not just teaching technique — they’re building confidence, discipline, and respect in a really positive and supportive environment.
Both James and Mak are highly skilled and genuinely passionate about what they do. They know how to keep the sessions fun, engaging, and challenging, and they always take the time to make sure every child feels included and encouraged.
If you’re thinking about getting your child into kickboxing or just looking for a great place to train, this is definitely the gym to check out!
My daughter absolutely loves her jiu jitsu classes at the Lion’s Gym. Raj and James create such a positive and welcoming atmosphere. Every session is engaging, challenging, and great fun. She’s learning valuable skills, building confidence, and always leaves with a big smile. I can’t recommend the club enough.
This fitness gym provides a supportive team atmosphere where knowledgeable instructors guide and motivate you every step of the way. The sense of community and encouragement from both staff and fellow members creates a motivating environment for achieving your fitness goals.
I recently signed my young son Daniel up for the Lions Gym around three weeks ago. The progress he has made in such a short time is mind blowing. James Dixon is an incredible trainer. He’s great with the kids whilst commanding their respect and attention at the same time. And most importantly my son is loving these classes!
I highly recommend this fitness gym! The great coaches and knowledgeable instructors have truly elevated my workout experience. Their expertise and guidance ensure effective and efficient workouts. Whether you're a beginner or advanced, you'll feel supported and motivated to reach your fitness goals.
Really enjoyed the class, good set of combinations demonstrated and individual help on hand when needed. I like the fact that the combinations are based not just hitting pads at full force, but by making light contact with your partner, moving and countering, so you are really learning something that will help you become a better martial artist.
Session finished with some heavy bag work and fitness, so the lesson was well balanced and practical.
What is rare to find these days with Lions Gym is that you can do the week's free trial, then just sign up, no joining fee or insurance costs to pay, just pay the monthly direct debit which is 30 day rolling contract, this makes it really easy to try the club out over a period of time to make sure it's right for you. A lot of clubs offer only 1 or 2 lessons for free then will ask for a joining fee + insurance + monthly training fee upfront to get started, which is hard to justify after such a short period. So I recommend giving Lions ago.
Cannot recommend this gym highly enough.
My 8 year old daughter has been training here in Jujitsu and and Muay Thai Boxing for just under. Year and my four year old son approximately 3 months .
My daughters first day there, she was too nervous to even step onto the mats, roll on 12 months she has competed in 3 national tournaments and won two silvers and most recently a gold at the British Grand Prix! Her confidence now beams and our son is following his sister's excitement for training at the gym.
The coaches are all so passionate about their sport and their enthusiasm and commitment is definitely contagious amongst the children.
Classes are structure but fun and children leave each class feeling like they have accomplished something new.
Definitely one of, if not the best children's martial arts academies you will find‼️
