I can’t recommend this gym enough!! The small group PT sessions are the perfect balance between being highly professional and genuinely enjoyable. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and really take the time to make sure you’re moving correctly, which makes such a difference not just for results but for long-term progress and avoiding injury.
What really sets this place apart is the atmosphere, everyone is so down to earth and friendly, which makes every session something to look forward to. It never feels intimidating, but you’re still pushed in the best way and leave feeling like you’ve had a really effective workout.
I’ve learned so much here and genuinely enjoyed the process. If you’re looking for a place that combines expertise with a welcoming, supportive environment, this is it :D
Did a class through ClassPass here - it was so hard!! Great workout.
I started with the 21 day challenge to get myself into a routine and I began to notice positive changes in my fitness/mobility very soon. I haven’t stopped training since - I have a pretty poor record of sticking to work out plans but this gym has really turned things around for me. Sam, Reiss and Tom are excellent trainers - professional, encouraging and attentive. If you’re looking to join a gym that motivates you to train consistently then look no further!
This place is brilliant. I mainly attend small group PTs and can share my personal experience: there really is a sense of community, fantastic trainers (I meet Reiss, Tom and Sam) give full attention to detail, you are being welcomed at any step and equipment & changing rooms are fantastic.
A very easy review to write: without sounding totally cliché, joining the Foundry has been life-changing for me. Never before have I enjoyed or stuck at exercise that wasn’t a sport - but this is different. The coaching and variety of the sessions keeps things motivating and interesting, and I’ve loved being able to both feel and see myself getting stronger and fitter. Despite it crippling my bank balance (membership is not cheap), can confirm it’s worth every penny!
The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the facilities are great, the other members are friendly and supportive, and all the coaches are knowledgable and enthusiastic. It really does feel as though they get to know you and your goals, and are invested in your progress. A particular shout-out to Crystal whose endless positivity and encouragement is a VIBE!
While I’d rather keep it a secret, if you’re thinking of joining a great gym where you’re guaranteed to see results, look no further.
The Foundry is on another level. The small‑group personal training sessions and classes are truly bespoke: the coaches know your name, tailor exercises for any injuries and push you just the right amount. The atmosphere is what makes it special. There’s a real sense of community and zero ego, and coaches make everyone feel welcome. You never have to worry about what to do; the structured programmes keep training enjoyable and time‑efficient. Training at The Foundry really helped me achieve visible results. Their workouts levelled up my fitness and strength and made me actually enjoy going to the gym. If you want serious results in a supportive, fun environment, The Foundry is it.

Thank you so much for leaving your review! - Foundry HQ
Its pricey but for a good reason. Its at a convenient location. Moreover, you can tell the trainers are handpicked professionals who are really good at their jobs. Some may worry that because its a group pt session, the workout may not be intense, and such... However, dont underestimate the power of group pt, because it is guaranteed that the end of every session, with training tailored to your physical abilities designed to push you, you will end up exhausted, and the trainers will ensure that you are.
Im a student so there will be a time where i will have to leave foundry in a few months but i have learnt many things my time here. I recommend this gym heavily not only for the workout but also for the vibes here. What more can someone ask from a gym?
Hands down the best gym in London!
The sessions (small group PT and classes) and evolving programmes are completely bespoke. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and experienced - they not only know your name, but your capabilities and injuries - adapting exercises to suit you and nudging your further.
After a few months of consistency you will be stronger and fitter than you have ever been - no matter your age. The community of gym goers are supportive and encouraging - no egos here.
My only complaint is that there are not more branches across London - I travel on 2 tubes to get there - and have done so for a number of years. C’mon Foundry!
