One of the best gym
One of the best gym. I joined as a member and find amazing support, customised for my complex needs.
Personal trainer . Excellent customer service and well presented and well equipped
Old lady gets stronger!
After just two months there I am already feeling much stronger and less flabby! I do not struggle to get off the floor now or to get out of the bath. I am sure this will help me to keep my mobility in my later years.

I joined the Plymouth Gymphobics back…
I joined the Plymouth Gymphobics back when it opened and can honestly say it was the best decision I have made. Its my happy place, I have met so many lovely ladies and friends for life. They know me as an individual and not a number. I am welcomed every time I walk through the door. My body is toned and i feel best the ever. The team are amazing and highly recommend to any ladies wanting to do exercise in a friendly fun place you will love it.
Plymouth branch
I joined the gym last summer. I was very anxious about coming but the team and other members have been very friendly and supportive. The team are very caring and and treat everyone as an individual and know your name. You aren't just a number to the team.
Would recommend to any ladies who are anxious about joining the gym.
The staff are amazing ... BUT ..........
IF I COULD = I would give 5 stars to all the staff at Felixstowe gymophobics, they are all amazing and they all want the best for you. But the management/owner deserves one star only. My Sister was in hospital as she had 4 discs replaced. Because their payments are on a loop and they never remind you when you have to start paying again, we ended up with a letter from the ' ONLINE DIRECT FINANCE COMPANY' not only did we have to pay for the month's we missed but we were also charged for late payment.
If you're thinking about joining the gym in Felixstowe then like i say the staff are fab. Just remember the payment is on a loop and as soon as you miss a payment ' no excuses' you will probably end up with a debt collection agency on your back. READ ALL THE ONE STAR REVIEWS ON TRUSTPILOT BEFORE JOINING THIS ESTABLISHMENT. IT IS NOT THE GYM INSTRUCTORS THAT ARE AT FAULT,, IT'S THE MONEY SIDE OF THINGS THE HAVE INFURIATED MEMBERS THAT THIS COMPANY SEEMS TO THINK IS ACCEPTABLE.
IT ISN'T!!!!!
You cannot reason with this company either as they will ALWAYS be in the right.
With a company like that, i am glad i am no longer a member....
I'm sorry that when i wasn't happy a member of staff thought it was her fault, but this complaint was never intended towards her, just the company.

They banned me for life by e mail…
They banned me for life by e mail without hearing my side of the story. I have since received a reduced membership offer, I asked them to delete me from their system, and recently birthday wishes! How crass can you get? Am now with an excellent gym with professional trainer and doing well.

Never thought I would love going to a Gym but Rachel, Michelle and Carol care about everyone and make you feel welcomed and supported. I would highly recommend using this gym and meeting all the lovely ladies who like to stay active at whatever age.

You have failed to mention your dubious trading practices though in your welcoming ad.. I would urge anyone thinking of joining this gym to do so with caution do not I repeat do not hand over cash to them and make sure you do not sign the membership paperwork that they will thrust at you as soon as you close the door behind you.. my wife at her peril did just this as they seemed welcoming and nothing was too much trouble before she went... It didn't take long for the grubby money grabbing to start when it didn't suit them...straight after signing up they completed a blood pressure test and said she could not exercise before getting checked out by her doctor as it showed high blood pressure reading...A week of blood pressure tests sent to the doctor and diagnosed with stage 1 hypertension and an irregular heartbeat 'arrhythmia'... Praise from me for highlighting a problem we had no idea about...disgusting money grabbing afterwards .. Wife has contacted them and asked for the deposit back as she never even got the induction, not sure she spent more than 10 minutes inside the gym and has asked to cancel the membership until we have finished the doctors appointment to even know if she can exercise,... all have fallen on deaf ears no money returned and they are expecting £40 a month for a service she cannot use.. businesses like yours are why gyms have a bad name..
The most helpful friendly gym ever
Hi, I joined Gymophobics in Ruislip last June, and can honestly say it was the best thing I did. To me its become a family gym. All the staff are so friendly, helpful and all are full hands on the job. They walk around watching and making sure your standing correctly and using the machines the right way to give you the best results without any damage to your body.
The new premises in Ruislip Manor that the gym has moved to which is located across the road to where the old one was, is BRILLIANT, Martine the boss with the help of her team has done and excellent job.
For me personally its been a life saver, as having had depression and anxiety, it gives me the will to get up in the mornings and visit
'MY HAPPY PLACE'
Ive always wondered what it was like behind the windows with the posters on
I was in for lovely surprise!
As soon as I walked in I was made to feel welcome, by the instructor and existing members.Everybody is so friendly.
In the past Ive always avoided the gym.Mainly because I get bored, have no idea what Im meant to be doing on the equipment and it seems like its a big chunk of your time taken up.
I have changed my mind.
It is a circuit so you always know what you are doing next.It is kept challenging as the instructors are always on hand to tweak your program or help with technique and it only takes 30 minutes of your day.
I thoroughly recommend it.
Hinckley Gymophobics
I joined Hinckley Gymophobics in September 2024. The ladies who work there are fantastic! They are so supportive and care about each of us ladies. They share the journey with you and celebrate every success. Ladies, you’re brilliant and I highly recommend them 😊
Fantastic Gym
I have been with Gymophobics Hinckley for 2 years. I love the support and encouragement I have received from Rachel, Michelle and Carol..... they are amazing. They encourage you to push yourself, but they are also aware of any limitations you have. The members at this gym are incredible, there's always someone experiencing difficulties, whether that's training or personally, the support you get is incredible. Rachel is very hands on and knows each and every member. I feel so proud of what I have achieved with the incredible support given me 🫠. Keep up the good work team xx
Gymophobics Hinckley
I have been attending Gymophobics Hinckley since 2019. I go four times a week and love it there as it has such a warm and encouraging environment. All the instructors are happy, friendly and knowledgeable and members get on really well, it’s so easy to make friends. I have been supported through two operations in the last year and my programme has been adapted taking account of my limitations and easing me back into exercising correctly so as to aid my recover. Can’t recommend them more highly, they are wonderful 😊
I started in May 2025
I started in May 2025, never been to a gym before and never thought I would ever go to one, until I went to Hinckley Gymophobics.
I feel so comfortable there and there is no one laughing at how you look, and everyone helps you along your gym journey.
I feel so much better, mentally and physically since joining.
Total recommended to any woman who is wanting to get fitter and more confident within themselves, it truly works xx
Thanks Rachel, Michelle and Carol for the support you have given me ❤️❤️❤️

Harrogate Gymophobics
Hi. I joined Gymophobics in Harrogate early July. I had done a month of a challenge running one mile a day and started to feel fitter and loose some weight. I knew this wasn't enough at 68 to strengthen my whole body so I joined the Gym. From the offset the support has been amazing. The whole circuit was well explained both the first and now my second program detailing how it exercises each muscle group. Sophie made sure I was doing them correctly to get the most benefit and not hurt myself. I'm loving going and can see the difference already. Thanks everyone.
Such a lovely gym full of supportive…
Such a lovely gym full of supportive women and a real sense of community. Fitness has never been more fun!
Love it!
As an over 60 I have at last found a gym where I feel comfortable! Gymnophobics Harrogate has been so welcoming and I'm loving it. The instructors and assistants are always very friendly and professional and keep you motivated. I joined last year and would definitely recommend it.
Been a lovely morning at the gym
Been a lovely morning at the gym, just got back feeling energised.
Really feel my personal exercise plan that’s regularly reviewed and adjusted by the instructors in Stafford shows dedication to their members to support and encourage us.
Thank you all.
