This place is just SO lovely for older people who want a little fitness boost. Not strict women only but nearly all women clients and all the instructors are so helpful. If I lived closer I would join permanently but it's a long way from where I live, so I set aside a one month programme and allow for lots of driving time. You can have 2 sessions a week with just 4 clients and a personal programme tailored to you, there are also lots of slightly bigger groups also with really varied exercises for people to do, I have never been bored!! They also do an indvidual interview when you join with measurements etc, diet and health advice, concern for any particular health problems or physical injuries you might have. I really can't recommend them highly enough. PS I am going to be 80 this year and their input makes me feel 25 years younger!!

I recently completed a three week trial  which was brilliant. The trainers are very supportive and experienced, tailoring sessions to each individuals needs. The sessions are very relaxed, friendly and sociabIe alongside challenging. I felt I made progress in a short time and this has given me motivation to continue. I would thoroughly recommend Empowered Fitness, it definitely lives up to its name.

I have been a member for over 18 months now. I was overweight and very unfit with frequent back problems. I have lost 2 stone and become much stronger and I feel really great. I am 76 and it’s given me a new lease of life!I enjoy training with Lewis, he has a great personality and good humour, he’s very chatty but also knows his stuff and is always happy to help me to exercise safely. Matt is kind and supportive and helps to keep up enthusiasm by varying the exercises and adapting them to allow for my injured knee. Joey takes top marks for his energetic outlook, both in the gym and outside organising walks etc. I love coming to the gym, I especially like the friendly attitude which spills from the trainers to the members

I joined Empowered Fitness on a free trial in January, having hit 50 and struggling with back pain and lethargy. It’s now October and I haven’t missed a single session. I have been 3 times a week and haven’t had any back pain or indeed any illness, colds, pains all year! It’s a really accessible way to get stronger and boost self esteem. I can see the changes in my body and my mind. I want to say thank you to Lewis Dean, who brings such fun and flair to the sessions, Joey Ledbury who is always so positive and motivating and Matt who is a steady and empowering gym lead.

I recently joined the gym for a 6 week programme and can highly recommend. The trainers are all friendly, non judgemental and supportive and members have been very welcoming. I've attended small personal training and group sessions and love that no two classes feel the same. I've had most classes with Lewis and can't fault him. He has provided constructive feedback and there is always joyful repartee - great to leave a session knowing that you've worked hard and can have a laugh!

I felt at home straight away. All the other ladies are wonderful. Trainers really know what they are talking about. Well worth booking X

I love this place so much and it has kind of taken over my life in the two and a half years since my first session with Matt, and I never started the gym till I was 51. Joey, Matt and Lewis are the best.
