  I attend both the ladies’ boxing classes and the mixed classes. Before joining this gym, I had no previous boxing experience. I chose this gym because I was looking for practical boxing training rather than just fitness focused classes. Even as a complete beginner, I have been taught the fundamentals carefully and thoroughly. Cynthia, the ladies’ coach, is fantastic. She teaches practical techniques while always prioritising safety, which makes me feel confident and supported. She is also very good at motivating people, and after my first trial session, I immediately knew that this was the gym I wanted to join. The training can be challenging, but the sense of achievement after pushing yourself and completing the session is incredible. There are also many experienced boxers here, making it a great place to improve your skills. Despite their high level, everyone is friendly, respectful, and always willing to offer advice and encouragement. The members are very welcoming, and I genuinely enjoy coming to train here. I highly recommend this gym to anyone who wants to learn real boxing in a supportive and motivating environment.

  I recently joined the gym and Cynthia is, without exaggeration, an outstanding boxing coach. She creates an environment where women immediately feel comfortable, confident, and supported something that makes a huge difference, especially when starting boxing. From the first session, you feel encouraged to push yourself while knowing you’re in safe, capable hands. Her technical knowledge is exceptional. Cynthia breaks techniques down clearly and precisely, making boxing easy to understand and apply. What stands out most is how quickly you see progress under her coaching she knows exactly how to teach without overwhelming you, which keeps training motivating and enjoyable. She is attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in every woman in the room. She notices details, gives tailored feedback, and brings out the best in each person. Her passion for boxing and for growing the women’s community is obvious and inspiring. Cynthia is a huge asset to the gym and, quite simply, an exceptional ladies boxing coach. I cannot recommend her sessions highly enough!

  Training with Cynthia has been one of the most liberating experiences ever. Cynthia is kind, warm and welcoming, and firm but fair with her training, building discipline and a community of strong like minded women. I have gained so much confidence in all aspects of my life and, most importantly, the positive impact training has had on my mental health has felt amazing! Not to mention the strength I've developed and changes in my fitness levels aren't bad either ;) If you're on the fence about joining, don't hesitate! These classes are for everyone and anyone, and Cynthia makes you feel like a part of the community the second you step into that gym. I can't wait to go back postpartum!

Cynthia the Coach is professional and pushes you to be better and better but she is also supportive and kind. Is an environment where you can feel comfortable,valued and safe and also have fun at the same time. 100% recommended!

  Boxing with Cynthia has changed everything, she is so passionate about what she does, she has so much knowledge and experience to offer and she always makes the most of it every single class. Ladies boxing has helped me so much and brought some of my confidence back to training. Classes are so good and we always feel very welcome and we always know exactly what we are doing, there is always so much fun and Cynthia always with huge smile makes the difference!

  Recently joined Muay Thai but Boxing seems to be the main sport they care about. The Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai coaches are brilliant I just wish management would sort all the kids and parents out using the Muay Thai area like it’s a back yard… Running around in dirty shoes and throwing pads around

  I’ve been training here for about a year now with my teenage kids as well, both Muay Thai and Jiu Jitsu. The Muay Thai coach is Tom Weeks and the Jiu Jitsu coach is Max Campos, both are terrific coaches with a passion for their sport. The gym managers, James and Yas, are also very friendly and helpful. My only ask is to “update” the Muay Thai area; the mats are very old and worn down and people (usually parents and kids) frequently walk through the area with shoes on or use it as a play area. Overall though, a great gym and good value for money and a friendly environment for old and younger people… but with serious training.

  The main boxing trainer is always on his phone and is not teaching the students. Also, he only wants you to box his style.
