Loxford Park Outdoor Gym - (Near Redbridge, UK)

Sonia Sylvester I have been training with Vaz for some time now and I cannot recommend him highly enough. His approach is the perfect blend of patience and professionalism which has made a difference in my fitness journey. He motivates me and gives me that extra push even when I feel I cant go any further. He is clearly passionate about what he does and it shows. He never lets me settle for less than my best. Thank you Vaz you are a star. x

Naveeenx Decent, no frills gym with good selection of equipment that suits my workouts. Lots of parking, showers, licenced bar and large grounds for outdoor running. Pretty good for £20 a month. Can get a bit crowded late afternoon/early evening.

F Ahmad I moved to Virgin Active Repton Park in January after spending 5 years at Nuffield Health, and the difference has been a complete revelation. Nuffield raised prices twice in a year, removed key facilities like the jacuzzi without offering any discount, and the overall atmosphere — especially with some PTs — felt disrespectful and unfair. That experience pushed me to leave. Virgin Active has been the opposite in every way. From the gated community car park where you know your car is safe, to the friendly and welcoming reception team who greet you with a smile and provide fresh towels on every visit, the hospitality here is on another level. The locker rooms are a bit outdated and could use a modern refresh, but they’re always clean. The gym floor is great, though I do wish it had a bit more space and additional machines — especially a dedicated bicep machine. The real highlight of this club is the spa area. The sauna and steam room were recently renovated and are consistently in perfect working condition. The jacuzzi is incredibly relaxing, and the swimming pool is huge. As someone who’s been bodybuilding for over 10 years, having high-quality recovery facilities makes a massive difference. The architecture of the building is beautiful — transforming an old church into a gym gives the whole place a unique, almost royal feel. Overall, Virgin Active Repton Park delivers exceptional value, atmosphere, and service. Easily one of the best fitness clubs I’ve ever been a part of.

FadmaUmmSafiya Amazing boxing club for children. My 7 year old son started in September. Hes a rather shy and sensitive kid but hes done some muay Thai before. Coach Suli has taken him to a different level. I am really impressed how my son can now move around while boxing when he trains/plays with his dad. It is so important for a boxer to have the right foot movements while keeping your guard up. My son has gained so much confidence, resilience and skills here. I am immensely grateful for the commitment Coach Suli has for his trainees. And the price is affordable for those who have several kids. Wishing success to all the kids and Coach Suli! Thank you!

Chetan Malhotra This gym is well-equipped and ideal for all fitness levels. The machines and free weights are in great condition and there’s enough variety for strength training, cardio and functional workouts. The gym is clean, spacious and well-maintained. Trainers are knowledgeable and always willing to help with guidance or form correction. The overall environment is motivating and friendly making it easy to stay consistent with workouts.

E Green I have enjoyed pilates, yoga and somatics with Ros for over ten years. Every class is different and Ros really takes time to extend our practice and gives first class instruction. YogaRos zoom classes were a great daily discipline during lockdown and I have definitely become stronger and more toned because of these sessions. Im continuing with the daily early morning zoom classes because they fit in so well with the rest of my day. Booking through the bookwhen site is simple. The live classes at the Limes Centre follow social distance guidance. Its a great chance to see other Yogaros members and Ros can give verbal adjustments and encouragement. Ros is such a dedicated and knowledgeable teacher that every class feels like a private lesson. I would recommend YogaRos to anyone thinking of getting back to pilates or yoga.
