I have been a member at Sweatroom since 2016 - The most perfect studio gym - wonderful equipment with a open and clean great space to work out in. The PT instructors are of a high standard and look out for your well-being physically and emotionally. I have particularly enjoyed the online PT sessions for the past couple of years as it has given me the flexibility to continue my workouts whilst abroad or away from home due to work. I would definitely recommend this place !

I have been regularly attending classes at Sweat Room and have noticed a real change in my body. The classes are really good fun and all the instructors are fantastic. I love that Sweat Room is an independent business run by women (Paula and her daughter Lauren), this means that there is a much more personal approach. I can't recommend Sweat Room highly enough and think the classes are great value for money. Be warned that Paula and Lauren have a sadistic side (#squats) and both seem to count very, very, very slowly!

I started at The Sweat Room back in March at 19st. I always like riding a bike so thought Id start with the indoor cycling, cant be that hard!!!! Well it was.... but in 45 mins Im burning 500/600 calories.... I try to do minimum 2 classes a week. They are amazing. Different routines every session keep you interested and the weight has dropped off. Im now 16st and my next goal is 15st. Im changed it up a little now as I have PT sessions with Lauren once a week for upper body work but still blitzing the calories on a bike 2/3 times a week. Everyone is very warm and welcoming, theres

I have been going to the Sweat Rooms for over a year, attending classes (mainly spin) and PT sessions. The classes are fun, push you and varied which is brilliant for someone who gets bored in training easily. PT sessions (Im with Tom) are fantastic, dedicated, supportive and continuous forward momentum. Highly recommend.

I have been going to spin sessions at sweatroom for about 3 weeks now, i aim to do 2 a week if i can. The building is just at the back of the actual sweatroom building and it is incredible, with air con and the music being as loud as wanted and the lighting is amazing to really get your blood pumping, not to mention the song choices chosen by the sweatcyle team (who are incredible trainers and really motivate and advise you on your goals.
