I have left 3 emails as I could not find your gym  went to post code address and also spoke to people and ask if they have heard of your gym and to be told no.   I was very disappointed

Great Functional Fitness session with Audra. Small classes so plenty of good hands on attention. 

Hilary Matthews

Great workout as always . Audra changes routine every week which definitely keeps it interesting.

This was my first time at The Gym Unit and I was a little apprehensive. However, I had a very warm welcome and a great introduction to the FF class. It was a mixed ability class but I felt comfortable to go at my own pace. I've booked for the next class and am looking forward to seeing results. Thank you.

Peter Millward

First time back in a gym of any kind for years. Great welcome and thoroughly enjoyed the class. Thanks and see you again soon

Jayne Stokes

First time at a gym and thought it was great, very welcoming and not too intimidating..superb instructor 

Till Vierkant 

Liam Brading

I’ve been to 3 sessions now and Audra is brilliant! She pushes you but also listens to you when you find your limit! Would 100% recommend!

Emma Moon

Great class, lots of variety with exercises and really friendly and helpful instructor

William Kyle

Really enjoyed my first Functional Fitness class, brilliant all round workout and very well supported and guided by instructor. 

Helen Seward

Really good Functional Fitness class and I will definitely be going regularly

Joe Olynec

First time back at a gym in decades and loved every moment. Doesn’t feel intimidating like big gyms and more like a private gym with a personal trainer guiding you through the class. Friendly people and very enjoyable. Aching a bit after, but thats a good thing😂 

Fiona Murchie

I found the class challenging but manageable. I was made very welcome. Audra is an attentive coach, great at pushing for improvements whilst ensuring safe practice.  Highly recommend. 

Marie McKenna

Recently discovered Gym Unit, their Functional Fitness Thursday class is well worth a try - challenges you but doable 

Marlyn Minto.

My first time doing any form of circuit training. I was a bit nervous anticipating, correctly, that I would be by a margin the oldest there. Audra was very welcoming and is well organised. She clearly explained each exercise and constructively corrected any deviation on my part. I found it progressively difficult towards the end of the session but have signed up for next week.

HIIT Class (AM)

Emma  Brown 

Attended the last 2 Saturday morning HIIT classes and I've loved it and I haven't done any high intensity classes for a while! 

Joanna Heijmer-Mason

Good class - nice pace, good workout, nice clean gym, well equipped, good, friendly instructor. I'll definitely go to classes regularly.

Great variety of equipment and exercises. Perfect length class. Well supervised and run. Definitely recommend.

Kayleigh Johnston

The HIIT classes are great. I’ve been attending them on and off for years now and always realise how much I miss them when I’ve not been in a while. First class back is always the worst but once you get back into it, you feel so good after and I always have the most productive day. Ideal for all abilities and you can just go at a pace that suits with some encouragement along the way - 45 minutes and you’re done! I have also been attending the open sessions on Tuesdays or Thursdays evenings which are great for me as I can nip to the gym straight after work and get a solid work out done. It’s great being able to do your own session or Aaron also has a session on the whiteboard that you can follow if you have no idea what you want to do. Having Aaron there to check form and keep you right whilst also encouraging you to push for another set even when you think it isn’t possible is big plus too. A decent mixture of weights and equipment are available. Not having too many people booked in at once guarantees decent space and feeling less overwhelmed in my opinion. Overall, I have tried other gyms, self motivation etc but it just doesn’t cut it. Get yourself along and try it for yourself! 

Never thought I’d start my first HIIT in my 60s but loving Aaron’s classes - you’re never too old! And you feel so good and righteous afterwards - a real buzz 😄

Paul McCabe 

Great class and very friendly and welcoming. 

Joe Cairns

Excellent Circuits Class.  Really nice folk.  Well thought through exercises.  Good fun and good banter. Lots of motivation and support from instructor.
