The Gym Group Ashford - (Near , UK)

Emiliya Sim I started training with a personal trainer in 2013 and have worked with two different PTs over the past 11 years. My initial goal was to lose weight, get into a regular exercise routine, build strength, and maintain my fitness levels over time. Since October 2024, I’ve been training with Chris at Fiit Studio, and he has completely transformed both my body and my understanding of what it means to be fit and strong—especially as you get older. While weight loss was not my main objective, I’ve not only slimmed down but also become noticeably more toned, much stronger, and far more mindful about my nutrition. Training with Chris requires discipline, consistency, and commitment, but his guidance makes the journey both effective and rewarding. He has an exceptional ability to design the right programme at the right time, knowing exactly when and how to increase weights to push me further without risk. His deep knowledge of nutrition, combined with his firm but encouraging coaching style (sometimes like a headmaster!), has helped me make lasting improvements to my lifestyle. His constant reminders about the benefits of movement and walking really do pay off. Most recently, I successfully climbed a mountain of almost 4,000 metres—an achievement I can confidently say would not have been possible without the strength and endurance I built under Chris’s training, particularly in my core and legs. I cannot recommend Chris highly enough as a personal trainer. He is knowledgeable, motivating, and genuinely invested in helping his clients achieve their goals and sustain long-term health.

Sam Orams Hands down the nicest gym I’ve been a member of. Friendly helpful staff, respectful atmosphere, good mix of all ages, clean and well maintained throughout. I don’t do the classes but they have lots on offer.

Kate L Joining Swimming Nature has been the best decision we’ve made and I wish we’d signed up sooner! My daughter is on a swimming team and needed some 1:1 help with technique. The progress she’s made has been incredible thanks to Thomas! She also loves coming so much, that she says she wants to get back in the pool after the lesson is over.

Usman Tariq Shpend is a lovely person and wonderful trainer. Incredibly knowledgeable in what he does, he has given me skills which will put me in good stead for the rest of my life. Highly recommended.

Nels P Great gym. Been coming just over a year and can say that I am thoroughly enjoying it. Would be good to have a bigger space so there is more access to facilities but overall, it works for what my goals and what I want to achieve. Staff are always great and helpful also.

Theresa Offwood-le Roux I started with Noemi at Yummy Pilates when I was 16 weeks pregnant and I enjoyed the prenatal Pilates until the birth of my daughter, it helped me stay at least a little active towards the end of my pregnancy. Now I am currently enjoying the Mommy and Baby Pilates. Its nice to get out the house and be able to do some exercise with my daughter in tow. Noemi is a wonderful teacher and her Pilates philosophy match mine. She is wonderful with my baby, giving me the ability to get some exercises done. I would highly recommend her classes to all!
