What a great find! I came across Boom Fitness on Instagram and made some enquiries. I joined the gym on the 6 week promotion just because I haven't been in the gym for donkey's years and didn't want to commit too much, just in case!! The class times are varied but I particularly liked the early classes. I did Strong and Sweat (both live up to their names for sure). Roi was very welcoming and I was totally guided by him with regards to starting weights etc so I didn't over do it and put myself off or injure myself. The 6 weeks flew by and I felt sooo much better and could see and feel the difference. As a 58 year old menopausal woman I had to change my exercise from CV to weights and resistance. Roi's classes are small but fun and the other ladies are so nice - I even came across a lady I went to school with some forty-odd years ago which was fab to reminisce! I moved away from the area unfortunately so I have since left, but I wouldn't hesitate to go back to this gym. Roi's enthusiasm, knowledge and understanding is spot on and he will help you achieve your goals.

Great, ladies only group classes. The atmosphere is very positive and people of all levels and abilities are welcomed. Would definitely recommend to people who don’t enjoy an ordinary gym experience and who prefer working in small, friendly groups

After feeling apprehensive about going to the gym for the first time in 40+ years, I didn't have to worry. Roi was so calming and knowledgeable and even with the first lesson I felt more confident and know it was the best thing to do for me personally. The ladies in the group were very welcoming and friendly and I can't wait for the next session.

Boom Fitness is the best gym I have been to. The classes are actually fun as well as challenging and you leave with a sense of achievement and looking forward to the next one. The coaches are very knowledgeable and because the classes are intentionally small, the coaches are able to give you all the support and encouragement you need AND they are all lovely. The gym and equipment itself is excellent with everything you need. You get a real community feel at this gym so if you are feeling nervous or reluctant to join, don't be. At Boom Fitness you will get the support you need.

I’ve always struggled to maintain consistency when it comes to exercise. I go through phases of working out almost daily for a couple of weeks, only to then stop any physical activity for weeks. I’ve also switched between working out alone and attending classes. I found that I enjoy classes, but the timing of those classes never seemed to suit me.

When I saw Boom advertised on my Instagram, I thought, ‘Why not give it a try? I have nothing to lose.’ I had zero expectations after trying numerous other places that seemed to offer similar facilities.

Nervously, I attended my first class and was instantly made to feel comfortable and at ease by Roi (the owner and trainer) and all the regular attendees, who are mainly ladies. It was so refreshing to be in a space where everyone was just going with the flow. Women of all shapes and sizes, abilities, and walks of life attended.

At Boom, everyone takes each day as it comes. I’ve never actually wanted to exercise before, but the community aspect of Boom transforms it into more than just a workout.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve still had some seriously inconsistent attendance, but just when I’m starting to feel embarrassed about how long it’s been since I last attended, Roi sends me a message, encouraging me to come back to the sessions. Thank you Roi for being so supportive and understanding.

As for the exercise itself, I love that I can choose my pace and classes. Every time I go, I come out feeling physically and mentally stronger, ready to tackle the day.

The strong mama group is truly amazing. I didn’t realise how fragile I was after giving birth to my first born. This group helped me mentally as well as physically. I enjoy getting out of the house and having a routine of our classes each week. Gaining advice and information from a network of new mums is great, it’s helped boost my confidence. The relaxation and freedom of the class still allows you to tend to your babies needs as well as gaining your fitness back. I’m feeling much stronger and that’s all thanks to Charlotte and Roi at Boom fitness. Thank you again.

Boom Fitness is hands down the best gym I’ve been to. I have never felt more comfortable in a gym. The community of members and coaches is so friendly and supportive, and I can’t fault it in anyway! Every session is in small groups which feels safe and personal and even though it is in groups, every class is tailored to my ability. The gym is done out to an excellent standard, is always clean, and there is plenty of space. There is also a good variety of sessions so retains my interest well and the coaches are really knowledgable. It is a pleasure to be able to train here.

Boom is an amazing place to get fit, stay fit and meet some wonderful people. I have been going along to classes at Boom for 3 years now and I love it. I really enjoy the family feel of the classes... likeminded women, all at different levels, working together under the watchful eye of the Coaches Roi and Marika, who are always positive, fun and motivating. I really enjoy the variety of classes and all the benefits it gives me; knowing how to do exercises correctly, being pushed to limits that I know I couldn't achieve on my own, learning so much about my body and how to get the best out of it. The coaches listen and help you individually in so many ways. I really couldn't recommend it more. I love the classes and the core therapy has identified keys areas for me to work on and strengthen. It's way better and much more fun than any Gym I've been a member of before.
