This gym, Will, Emma and the other members are all amazing. Kind, helpful and generous with their time and advice. It is a fun place where all the hard work is rewarded, no matter what ability you have at the start.

This gym is genuinely changing my life. I’ve tried a number of gyms over the years and never stuck to them. But WPF is different. The classes are flipping hard work but it’s so rewarding to see how much you can progress and grow, with dedication, buckets of sweat and constant encouragement from an amazing coach.
Leanne
Amazing facilities, unrivalled knowledge of programming and an inspirational coach! All in all, highly recommended.

Will is extremely knowledgeable and good at making sessions fun yet productive, as well as putting everyone at ease.
