Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Drakes Gym played a major role in my recovery from rotator cuff tears in both shoulders, which caused significant pain and limited my mobility. From the start, Wayne was incredibly helpful and accommodating, offering thoughtful guidance during the initial consultation and supporting my early recovery with care and professionalism. The gym is small, private, and never overcrowded—often, it was just me and my trainer, which created a focused and comfortable atmosphere without waiting around for equipment. I also appreciated the flexibility to work with different trainers until I found the one who suited me best. Each brought a different approach, and the overall quality of coaching was excellent. Their attention to recovery, the safe and welcoming environment, and the fun monthly competitions gave the gym a sense of momentum and community without being overwhelming. Thanks to the team at Drakes, I regained strength, mobility, and confidence. I highly recommend Drakes Gym to anyone seeking personal, expert support in a relaxed setting.

Thank you for your positive feedback back Maya. It was a pleasure training you and watching your progress. Your positive attitude was infectious and we look forward to seeing you againPosted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thrilled all-round with my experience over the last few months at Drake’s and glad I made the decision to try that first session. I felt welcomed immediately and delighted with the results - strength and fitness dramatically improved and general health the best it’s been in years. A special mention for Pearce who I’ve trained with mostly. He uses his knowledge of all aspects of health and fitness, pays close attention to the whole process. I have had knee problems for years and he worked with my injury throughout - I’m able to move with much more ease now when I play football, and in everyday life. The sessions I had with the other trainers, Ben and Dom, were also fantastic. Their expertise in pilates and movement supplemented my training and opened up new areas of fitness for me which have been invaluable.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a very useful PT and bodyscan session with Ben today. He showed me lots of helpful tips and techniques to put into practice. Thank you, Ben.

Many thanks Daniel. Keep up the good work💪Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have always loved my Pilates sessions with Bea, especially using the reformer. She’s guides me and trains me to do my best so that I can strengthen and build my core, gradually improving my health and fitness levels. I would and have always recommend Bea for anyone interested in improving their health and lifestyle. Thanks Bea!! x

Thank you Sara😁Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working out with both Wayne (general training) and Bea (reformer Pilates) was the best training experience I have ever had. Both of them were incredibly attuned to me and quickly dialed in on how to get the best out of me during sessions (which was different than how they interacted with my husband). I worked hard and was in great shape -- particularly in the time leading up to my wedding. They made sure to make me feel like I was always working hard, but never out of my comfort zone -- and never working towards a number on a scale, but towards my general health. Plus, seeing both Wayne and Bea was like going to hang out with a friend so sessions were something I looked forward to all week. We moved away last year and I very much miss having Drakes Gym nearby!

Thank you for your kind words Alessandra. It was great training training both you and Spencer, before your wedding. It's amazing how quickly time passes. We both miss you too.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wayne is a fantastic personal trainer, and a great guy. Working with him at Drake’s is a top-notch experience. Over the course of a year and a half I lost a significant amount of body fat, while hitting new personal records with many lifts. He knows his stuff!
