5 /5 Alex Burton: Having been a member of Shirokuma for a couple of years now, I cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone who is looking for a gym which possesses an incredibly supportive and friendly community alongside excellent coaches in James and Katherine. Their guidance and advice has been brilliant whilst the classes are always well structured and both challenging and fun in equal measure! I’ve really appreciated the discipline it has given me to training and I’ve seen real progress both in my strength and fitness inside the gym but also benefits to activities outside the gym such as running and football.

5 /5 Nicole Williams: I’ve been with the gym for about 18 months now, and this is the most consistent I’ve ever been with exercise. This is mainly due to the attention and care that Katherine and James bring to each member and class. Katherine has always encouraged me to just turn up and to see what happens - even on the bad days. I’ve never regretted listening to this advice! As a result I’ve gained so much strength, as well as feeling more confident. If you’re feeling nervous about giving CrossFit a go, then this is the gym to try it out!
