Rima’s journey back into fitness was deeply personal. After experiencing heart failure and stepping away from training for several years, she knew she needed to return but only if she could find a space that felt safe, supportive, and judgement-free.

“I hadn’t trained since 2019, and after my heart failure, I needed to really get back into it. One of the neighbours recommended Angel Gyms, and I found Jake. I’ve been here ever since.”

Angel Gyms offered more than just personal training; it became a sanctuary from the high-pressure world she worked in.

“I work in financial services as the CIO for Europe and the UK. It’s a very stressful life. But when I’m here, I don’t check my emails. I don’t check my phone. I just focus on being present.”

Rima instantly connected with the relaxed, welcoming environment and the added joy of being able to bring her dog along.

“I don’t feel judged here. It allows dogs, so we always end up chatting with the others about our pets. There’s a dog right there! I’ve got a big one. Everyone’s so friendly.”

Beyond the workouts, it’s the relationships that have truly enriched her experience. With a strong bond formed between her and her trainers and even beyond the gym walls.

For Rima, Angel Gyms has become more than a fitness space. It’s a part of her routine, her community, and her wellbeing.

Angel Gyms offered more than just personal training; it became a sanctuary from the high-pressure world she worked in.

“I work in financial services as the CIO for York and the UK. It’s a very stressful life. But when I’m here, I don’t check my emails. I don’t check my phone. I just focus on being present.”

Beyond the workouts, it’s the relationships that have truly enriched her experience. With a strong bond formed between her and her trainers and even beyond the gym walls.

“I get on well with Freddy and obviously you, Dan! You even came to my Christmas party.”

For Rima, Angel Gyms has become more than a fitness space. It’s a part of her routine, her community, and her wellbeing.

For Ofri, the turning point came during a holiday in Greece.

“I put my hands up and told my wife to take a picture. When we got home, I looked at that photo and I did not look good. That kickstarted it.”

Motivated to make a change, Ofri’s wife led the way.

“She dragged me here. She said, ‘We’re going to find a gym that can take us both on at the same time.’ And we’ve been coming every week for a year and a half.”

As the COO of his company, Ofri manages a demanding workload and a constant stream of decisions. Training at Angel Gyms has become his way to decompress, refocus, and keep his energy high for work.

At Angel Gyms, training became something he and his wife could share, improving not just their health, but their relationship.

“The first program introduced something I’d never really thought about before: how many calories I should eat each day, broken down into carbs, fat, and protein. Combined with the workouts, it wasn’t just about losing weight it was about losing it responsibly.”

With a personalised plan that changes every eight weeks, Ofri found himself making steady, sustainable progress.

“After that horrendous photo, I was 85 kg. I started the process, got down to 82, then 81. When the nutrition really kicked in, I got even more into it. Now I’m 71.89 kg, almost 15 kg lighter.”

For Ofri, Angel Gyms has been about more than just numbers on the scale. It’s been about building a healthier lifestyle, side by side with his wife, in a space that feels like home while also giving him the focus and resilience to thrive as a leader at work.

For John, the decision to join Angel Gyms came from a simple belief: health is wealth. After dealing with aches, pains, and a noticeable dip in his overall fitness, he knew it was time to make a change. But he also knew exactly what he didn’t want.

“I’d tried those big, impersonal gyms before, and I just didn’t enjoy them. In those places, if you’ve got slight issues or an injury, you end up pushing yourself more than you should. Here, it’s completely different. I can speak to Callum about how I’m feeling, and he’ll adjust things so we work in a way that’s safe and effective.”

The impact on his mental health has been life-changing.

“I’ve come off my anxiety tablets since I’ve been coming here. It’s not just the training it’s the environment, the people, the feeling of being supported. It’s like a reset every week.”

Physically, John’s progress has been undeniable.

“I can walk upstairs without getting out of breath like I used to. My arms and legs feel stronger, more toned, and even other people have noticed the changes. That’s always a nice boost.”

What makes Angel Gyms stand out for John is the combination of hard work and comfort.

“It’s cosy, but you’re still putting in the work. You’re not lost in a crowd. There’s a personal touch in everything they do here.”

He’s also developed a great working relationship with his trainer.

“The people are just lovely. I’ve seen the other personal trainers working with their clients, and they’re all fantastic but I think I’ve probably got the best one.”

When asked if he’d recommend Angel Gyms, his answer is immediate and certain.

“Absolutely 100 percent, yes. I’ve tried them all, and this is the one that works for me. It’s not just a gym, it’s a place that supports you in every way.”

When Simon decided to start personal training, his aim wasn’t just to get stronger it was to make sure he was training safely and correctly.

“Doing it on my own, I was always very conscious of injuries and doing things incorrectly. I wanted someone to show me the right way, to give me the confidence to train without worrying about hurting myself.”

From the start, Angel Gyms offered more than just workouts it gave him expert guidance and the flexibility to fit training into his life.

“One of the biggest deciding factors about coming here compared to somewhere else was the relationship with my personal trainer, Josiah. It’s very flexible. I don’t have to sign up for months on end it’s about fitting training around your life, not the other way around.”

Over time, that trainer client connection grew into a sense of belonging.

“You’re not just building a relationship with your trainer you start to get to know everyone here. It’s actually quite nice to come to the gym and still focus on your training, but also be in a really nice atmosphere. You enjoy it, you want to come more.”

That welcoming environment, combined with personalised, structured sessions, has kept Simon consistent and motivated.

“You build up a structure with Josiah, and it keeps you coming back for more.”

For Simon, Angel Gyms isn’t just about mastering technique it’s about building confidence, finding community, and creating a routine he genuinely looks forward to.

Pooja  joined Angel Gyms about a year ago, looking for a space that felt calm, personal, and approachable. Traditional gyms had always felt overwhelming and intimidating, full of complicated machines and environments that didn’t feel welcoming.

“One of the reasons I was looking for this type of space was not feeling intimidated. In a regular gym, you walk in, see all the machinery, and think what do I actually do here? It always felt too much. Here, it’s completely different. It feels accessible, calmer, and more intimate.”

With Suli’s guidance, Pooja was able to build a structure that removed the uncertainty and stress from training.

“Suli takes care of the food plan, takes care of the workouts. All I have to do is just show up and do what she tells me. I’m happy to just follow her around the gym. It’s made training so much easier.”

Consistency has been a key. Suli  keeps Pooja engaged and progressing without ever letting things feel repetitive.

“As soon as I start getting bored, she changes it up. We usually go through a three-month period where we build on a routine, then shift it again. It keeps things fresh, and I always feel like I’m moving forward.”

The calm and friendly environment at Angel Gyms has also been an important part of the experience.

“There are always friendly faces around, and the atmosphere is just very calm. It never feels overwhelming like other gyms I’ve been to. That makes me actually want to come in and train.”

Beyond training, the nutrition support has been transformative for Poojai.

“The diet plans have been amazing. They’re structured to my goals, my body, and even my medical history. That kind of personalised approach has made a huge difference it feels like every part of the plan is designed specifically for me.”

For Pooja, Angel Gyms has become more than just a workout space. It’s a supportive, non-intimidating environment that provides the structure, guidance, and encouragement needed to keep moving forward.

After not training for over ten years, Stephen knew it was time to get back into a healthier routine. Friends recommended Angel Gyms, and it immediately felt like the right fit, a space where he could focus on weight loss, muscle toning, and overall wellbeing without the intimidation of a traditional gym environment.

“My initial focus was on weight loss, toning, and muscle gain. The health side of it has been really helpful too. I’ve definitely felt changes in my shoulders, chest, and legs they’re more toned, with noticeable growth. Even day-to-day things feel easier, and that’s been really encouraging.”

A big part of Stephen’s motivation comes from training with Callum, who has provided not just expertise, but accountability and drive.

“Having Callum as my trainer is a huge drive for me. He’s really particular about form, posture, and angles, and that makes all the difference. I never feel like I’m doing something half-hearted or incorrectly there’s always attention to detail. The music selection particularly Callum’s keeps the sessions lively too.”

Over time, the training has gone beyond simply hitting physical goals it’s created a sense of consistency and enjoyment in Stephen’s week.

“It’s actually something I look forward to. There’s a structure to the sessions that keeps me progressing, but it’s also enjoyable. It never feels like a chore, which makes it much easier to stick with.”

Beyond the workouts, the environment has been a key factor in why Stephen keeps coming back.

“It’s a really friendly environment, a great team, and a very comfortable place to come and work out. You never feel judged, and that makes a big difference. But when you leave, you know you’ve had a really good session you feel accomplished.”

For Stephen, Angel Gyms has struck the perfect balance: expert guidance, a welcoming atmosphere, and tangible results.

“It’s not just about building strength—it’s about feeling healthier, more confident, and knowing that I’m finally back on track after so many years.”

Before joining Angel Gyms, Nikita was working long hours and starting to feel the effects on her body. Exercise had never been a consistent part of her life, and even though she tried online workout apps, nothing stuck.

“I’d never actually gone into the gym because I didn’t know what to do with the equipment. It all felt intimidating. I wanted to get stronger and healthier, but I didn’t know where to start.”

That lack of confidence was what led her to Angel Gyms somewhere she could build strength properly and feel supported along the way.

Her sister had been training at Angel Gyms for over a year and loved it, so she decided to give it a try too.

“My sister had been coming here for over a year, and she absolutely loved it. She told me how different it was, so I decided to try it as well.”

Since starting in February, Nikita’s perspective on fitness has completely shifted.

“I’ve been coming since February, and now I actually look forward to the sessions something I never thought I’d say about exercise.”

Her goals at the beginning were simple: to build functional strength and lose some weight. But she quickly discovered that the atmosphere at Angel Gyms was unlike anywhere else.

“Unlike any other gym, the environment is so calming. The lighting is softer, the furnishings are warm, it doesn’t feel harsh or intimidating.”

That environment helped Nikita break down her old belief that she wasn’t “a gym person.”

“I always used to think, ‘I’m just not someone who can do this.’ But here, it feels accessible. It feels welcoming. And I’ve surprised myself with how much I enjoy it.”

A huge part of that transformation has come from having a personal trainer by her side.

“It’s having a personal trainer that really makes the difference. They motivate you, they know your goals, and you don’t want to let them down.”

That accountability was especially important at the beginning, when showing up felt new and daunting.

“It forces you to come in but in a really positive way. That motivation in the beginning was exactly what I needed.”

Now, training has become a regular part of her lifestyle.

“It’s just part of my routine now. I don’t think of it as something I ‘have’ to do it’s something I actually want to do.”

Physically, the changes are clear. Nikita feels stronger, healthier, and more confident.

“I can already feel my body changing. I’m stronger, I’ve got more energy, and everyday things feel easier. My posture is better, and I feel more capable.”

For Nikita, Angel Gyms has completely transformed her relationship with exercise.

“It’s not just about the workouts. It’s about the atmosphere, the support, and the way you’re made to feel comfortable here. It’s changed how I see fitness, and I’m excited to keep going.”

When Naomi first joined Angel Gyms, it had been years since she’d done any proper training. Stiffness and tightness had started to take over, and her mobility was becoming more of a challenge. She wanted to rebuild her strength in a way that felt safe, encouraging, and achievable.

“What gave me confidence was feeling safe, knowing my trainer would start me off very slowly to figure out where I was at and what I could do.”

She remembers how much of a hurdle it felt just to get started again.

“To be fair, I hadn’t been doing anything for a long time. I was really stiff, everything was tight, and I didn’t know where to begin.”

That gentle, step-by-step approach gave her the reassurance she needed.

“Just being able to start at my own pace and work through that made all the difference.”

The welcoming environment played a big role too. From the moment Naomi walked through the doors, she felt at ease.

“I really liked the colours here. It feels calming as soon as you walk in. Everything is welcoming.”

Even the small details made her more comfortable before starting a session.

“The seating area and waiting space feel relaxed, which sets the tone before a session. You don’t feel rushed or out of place.”

As the weeks went on, Naomi’s sessions gradually built up in intensity. With her trainer’s guidance, she was able to push harder in a way that felt safe.

“It’s been about working through things step by step, and then getting pushed harder once I was ready. That made me feel like I was really achieving something.”

Soon, she began noticing real changes in her body.

“I’ve started to notice changes in my body. I feel stronger, and I can see more definition.”

Tasks that once felt difficult began to feel easier.

“Things that used to feel difficult are now becoming easier.”

The physical progress has carried over into her daily life.

“My mobility is definitely better now. That stiffness I was struggling with has eased, and I’m moving more freely.”

She’s also noticed her overall fitness improving in a way that’s boosted her confidence.

“On top of that, my overall fitness has gone up as well. I feel more capable, more energetic, and much more confident in my body.”

For Naomi, Angel Gyms has become more than just a place to train.

“It’s a calming, supportive environment where I’m rediscovering my strength and achieving more than I thought possible.”

For years, training hadn’t been a regular part of his life. Between work and a busy routine, fitness slipped further down the list of priorities.

“For the last seven or eight years, I didn’t really do anything. And then I realized that I’d got quite out of shape and wanted to get back on it.”

At first, he picked up tennis as a way to ease himself back into movement. But it wasn’t long before he felt the need to return to structured strength training.

“I started playing tennis once a week, but I wanted to go back into the gym. So I came to Angel Gyms.”

What he found was not just a training program, but an environment that gave him space, focus, and motivation.

“It’s a nice, friendly environment. The gym isn’t overcrowded, and you feel like you’ve got your own space, which is really nice.”

Training with Daniel quickly helped him rediscover both his strength and his confidence.

“I think the main thing was I had a personal record on bench press, which was about 85 kilos. Within three or four months, we’d surpassed that. Now I’m up to 92.5 kilos.”

The progress reminded him why he wanted to come back to the gym in the first place. It was about more than just numbers it was about creating structure, resilience, and consistency in his life.

“My main goal is just to get back in shape. I also wanted more consistency and accountability. With a busy life, I needed some help with that.”

Angel Gyms gave him exactly that expert support, accountability, and a space that felt motivating without being overwhelming.

“If you’re feeling anxious about coming in, just have a look around. It’s a welcoming environment, and once you start, it gets easier. For me, it’s been the perfect way to get back into training.”

For him, Angel Gyms has become the anchor that keeps him on track not just in building strength, but in balancing life, work, and health with confidence.

Sean was not only struggling to find clarity in his fitness routine but also facing the stresses of entrepreneurship. Navigating the complexities of his career was taking a toll on his mental and physical health. But then, everything changed. With Federico’s guidance, Sean transformed his physique and found a new sense of clarity and confidence that impacted every part of his life. His breakthrough at Angel Gyms has been nothing short of life-changing.

In this testimonial, Sean shares how training at Angel Gyms has helped him unlock his true potential and find a balanced, sustainable approach to fitness. “I had been training on my own and with others, but I kept coming across conflicting information. I struggled to make sense of what was correct for me and my goals.” Sean had been training for years but felt lost in a sea of advice that wasn’t tailored to him. With so much information floating around, he needed an expert who could cut through the noise and give him a personalised plan that aligned with his needs and goals. After all, as an entrepreneur, clarity is key.

That’s when everything changed. “Finding Angel and meeting Federico was the turning point. He was so knowledgeable and encouraging, and I knew I had met someone I could trust to help me reach my goals.” Sean immediately connected with Federico’s expertise and warm, supportive approach, which gave him the confidence to start training at Angel Gyms, knowing he was in good hands.

Through his training, Sean noticed an improvement not only in his physical performance but also in how he handled high-pressure situations at work. He began to recognise the importance of balance in both fitness and entrepreneurship. Sean had always included weight training in his routine, but training at Angel Gyms elevated the experience to an entirely new level. “I’ve always done weight training, but Angel Gyms took it to the next level. Federico’s programme was just as effective but much easier on my body, allowing me to train more efficiently and have more free time.”

The structured, intelligent programming helped Sean reach his fitness goals without unnecessary strain, enhancing his overall quality of life. The transformation he experienced was profound. “Physically, my body is more proportionate, and I’ve corrected imbalances that I used to overlook.” “Mentally, I’ve been able to let go of some irrational fears about losing progress and now feel more comfortable taking rest days and relaxing my diet.”

His body became more balanced, and he suffered fewer injuries thanks to learning how to train correctly and safely. Mentally, Sean achieved a new level of clarity, giving him a healthier, more grounded mindset towards his fitness journey. But it was the mental transformation that truly impacted his work. Federico’s programme helped reduce the physical strain on Sean’s body while still delivering strong results, enabling him to meet the demanding expectations of running a business.

The structure of the training also helped him better manage stress and boosted his confidence in high-stakes meetings and presentations. “I also feel more confident with the compliments I receive, and that has had a positive effect on how I carry myself.” Over time, Sean was able to integrate fitness into his life in a more sustainable and empowering way, building confidence with every step.

Reflecting on his experience, Sean is quick to recommend Angel Gyms to anyone seeking real transformation. “The atmosphere at Angel Gyms is so relaxed and welcoming. The trainers are all incredibly knowledgeable and apply their expertise to each individual’s goals.” “Plus, it’s dog-friendly, which means I can bring my dog with me when I don’t want to leave him.” That supportive, relaxed environment allowed Sean to feel completely at home—giving him the foundation to grow both professionally and personally.

Bonie joined Angel Gyms with the goal of building strength and finding a workout routine that could fit into her busy life as a mum.

With the help of her personal trainer, Tilly, she quickly started to see improvements, both physically and mentally.

When I first started, I wasn’t sure how far I could go. But with Tilly’s guidance, I’m lifting weights I never thought I could. We’ve been consistently increasing my strength, especially with hip thrusts. I remember thinking 50kg was my max, and now I’m at 85kg! Our next goal is to reach 100kg, which I’m really excited about. It’s amazing how much my body has transformed—I feel so much stronger, and the progress is undeniable. I’ve noticed the difference in my legs and glutes. The quads are back, the booty’s bigger, and even my measurements are all going in the right direction!”

Bonie loves the balance between challenge and support that Tilly offers during their sessions.

Tilly keeps her motivated but also understands when to push and when to pull back, which has helped Bonie maintain consistency without feeling overwhelmed.

“It’s such a supportive and fun environment where I feel safe, motivated, and encouraged to push my limits. For me, it’s important that my kids see me as strong and confident, and I love that they can look up to me as someone who takes care of their health and body.”

“I come to Angel Gyms once a week, and even that one session makes a massive difference. If I didn’t come at all, I know I’d start feeling soft and unmotivated. But even just one session keeps everything tight and strong. Tilly always checks in with me about my nutrition too, which is super helpful. I love my treats—chocolate and chips—but with Tilly’s help, I’ve learned how to balance everything. When I do indulge, I feel less guilty because I know I’m staying active and strong.”

The benefits Bonie has experienced at Angel Gyms extend far beyond just physical changes.

She’s found that her mental health has improved significantly since she started training.

“I come for the mental benefits just as much as the physical ones. After each session, I feel so much better, both physically and mentally. It’s like a combined therapy session for my body and mind. I walk out feeling refreshed, more motivated, and ready to take on the day. That’s something I wasn’t expecting when I first started—it’s been such a welcome change.”

When Bonie initially joined Angel Gyms, she wasn’t planning on making it a long-term commitment.

She signed up through ClassPass, intending to use up some extra credits during the summer holidays.

But after just a few sessions, she knew she had found something special.

“I didn’t think I’d carry on coming after the summer, but here I am, still going strong! It’s such an amazing environment, and I’ve enjoyed every minute of it. I never want to stop. Angel Gyms has become a part of my routine now, and I’m excited to keep coming back and pushing myself even further.”

Tibo, a portfolio manager in the finance sector with a high-pressure job, was juggling his demanding career and family life.

Despite maintaining an active lifestyle, he was struggling with low energy and motivation.

The stress of his job and the responsibilities of raising three young children had left him feeling drained.

That’s when his wife suggested trying personal training at Angel Gyms, and it turned out to be exactly what he needed to transform his fitness and his mindset.

“With such a busy schedule, I needed a gym where I could fit in sessions between work and family. Angel Gyms offers that flexibility—it’s perfect.”

​For Tibo, the structure and flexibility at Angel Gyms have been crucial. The off-peak sessions allowed him to fit in his workouts without sacrificing time with his family.

​Working with Jake, his personal trainer, has brought new energy and motivation to his routine. Jake’s approach is both gentle and challenging, helping Tibo push his limits while still being mindful of his energy levels on tougher days.

​“Jake knows how to push me, but he’s also mindful of my limits. If I’ve had a tough night or a bad meal, he adjusts the session accordingly.”

Tibo has seen significant gains in both strength and confidence.
Jake’s smart programming, including supersets, has maximized his time in the gym, allowing him to achieve results that he couldn’t have reached on his own.

The sessions have given Tibo the physical endurance he needs to thrive in his job and at home with his kids.

​“Mentally, the impact has been massive. I have more energy, more stamina, and it’s made a huge difference at work and at home.”

​Angel Gyms has helped Tibo handle the stress of his high-stakes finance job with newfound resilience.

The focus and energy he’s gained from his workouts have translated into his ability to tackle work challenges head-on.

The mental clarity he now enjoys has allowed him to handle setbacks more efficiently and maintain a positive outlook, even in difficult situations.

​“My job comes with a lot of ups and downs, and it’s all about how you handle those moments. Since training, I’ve found I have much more stamina to deal with setbacks. When things go wrong, I can move on quicker and focus on how to improve.”

Stefana had spent years working in physically demanding jobs, yet she constantly struggled with persistent aches and pains in her legs and knees. Over time, the discomfort became harder to ignore, and she knew that if she didn’t make a change, things could get worse. That’s when she made the decision to focus on building strength before the pain turned into something more serious. Stefana chose Angel Gyms as the place to begin that journey—and it turned out to be the exact kind of environment she needed.

Initially, Stefana was hesitant about going to a gym. She had never felt comfortable in typical gym spaces and was discouraged by the competitive, showy atmosphere many of them carried. “I really hate gyms. They’re so busy, and people care more about showing off than actually working out,” she said. But from the moment she walked into Angel Gyms, Stefana knew this was something different. The inclusive, welcoming environment created a sense of safety and focus that she hadn’t found anywhere else.

A huge part of that positive experience came from her trainer, Suli. With the right mix of firmness and encouragement, Suli helped Stefana stay on track. “Suli’s strict, but in the best way. For the first time in my life, I’ve actually been consistent with a sport. That’s never happened before.” This consistency was key—Suli helped her not only build strength but also establish a routine that Stefana could actually maintain.

As her physical strength increased, Stefana noticed dramatic changes in her mental health as well. “I used to have really bad OCD and anxiety, but now I sleep better, drink less, and have a routine. Training relaxes my brain.” The act of training gave Stefana structure, stability, and a calming outlet for stress—something that had been missing from her life for a long time. With every workout, her confidence grew, and her anxiety eased.

She also began achieving things she once thought impossible. Exercises like push-ups, which had always felt out of reach, became achievable milestones. “I can do push-ups now! It looked so easy, but when I tried, I was proven wrong quickly. Now, I can do eight—and I’m aiming for ten!” These accomplishments weren’t just about physical milestones; they were about proving to herself that she was capable of more than she believed.

For Stefana, Angel Gyms offered more than just a space to get stronger—it gave her a new relationship with her body and mind. The physical pain she once experienced has eased, her mental health has improved, and she feels empowered in a way she never expected. “I’d recommend Angel Gyms to anyone who feels stuck, like I did. It’s the perfect place if you want to make a real change but don’t like the typical gym scene.”

As his wedding day approached, James knew he wanted to be in the best shape of his life.

He was training alone, and it wasn’t getting him the results he wanted.

He was bored, unmotivated, and hitting a wall with his workouts.

That’s when he turned to Angel Gyms for the push he needed to reach his goals

“I’d been training on my own, but I wasn’t progressing. I knew I needed someone to really push me, especially with the goal of getting in top shape for my wedding.”

​James quickly found that the personalised, 1-on-1 approach at Angel Gyms was exactly what he needed.

​Not only this but also the guidance and expertise that comes with working with an elite personal trainer.

​“The focus at Angel Gyms is completely on YOU and your goals, and that’s what I was looking for.”

​​With tailored workouts and dedicated attention from his trainer, James finally broke through his plateau, seeing the results he’d been after for years.

“Weight training has been a game-changer. Physically, I’m seeing the results I’ve always wanted—it’s the best feeling. And mentally, I’ve become so much stronger.”

​Training at Angel Gyms wasn’t just about physical changes for James: it gave him a new sense of confidence and resilience.

This extended into other areas of his life.

He noticed that the calm and structure he experienced in his workouts made him feel more balanced and at ease in everyday situations, especially in his work setting.

​“I feel confident when I look in the mirror now, and it’s had such a positive impact beyond the gym.”

​As a business owner, James’ physical and mental strength are both key to his success.

The team understood his unique needs, helping him become the best version of himself, both for his wedding and his career.

James’ journey at Angel Gyms wasn’t just about fitness—it was about growth, confidence, and preparing for one of the biggest moments of his life.

Now, he’s ready for his wedding day and beyond, feeling stronger and more capable than ever.

​Some of our personal trainers are even off to celebrate the day with him.

​A testament to the trust and relationships built inside our SafeSpaces.

​“I’m wedding-ready now, thanks to Federico—my coach and now friend.”

​For James, Angel Gyms became a place where he could be his true self and focus on achieving his goals without judgment.

The inclusive, welcoming environment helped him every step of the way.

​“They help you trust the process, and you’ll achieve exactly what you’re aiming for. Whether you’re just starting out or want to take things to the next level, this is the place to be.”

Simon found himself feeling out of place and overwhelmed by conflicting fitness advice.

​The typical gym experience left him uncertain and unmotivated.

​With a demanding job taking up his time, he needed to be able to train sustainably and efficiently.

​He found Angel Gyms and everything shifted, including his body weight.

“I chose Angel Gyms because it’s inclusive, and I immediately felt welcomed.”

​Simon was searching for more than just a gym, he needed a space where he could feel like himself, free from judgment.

Angel Gyms offered exactly that.

From day one, the inclusive and supportive environment gave Simon the confidence to fully commit to his fitness journey.

​“I’ve lost 18 kilos.”

​Training with Federico allowed Simon to focus on what mattered.

The personalised, one-on-one sessions tailored to his unique goals not only transformed his physique but also changed his mindset.

​“Training here has given me so much more confidence, both inside and outside the gym.”

​Federico’s expert guidance helped Simon find balance—both physically and mentally.

His customised programmes allowed Simon to work more efficiently, freeing up time in his day while still achieving incredible results.

​“My deadlift has improved from 40kg for eight reps, up to 120kg for the same amount of reps.”

​With Angel Gyms’ support, Simon saw remarkable improvements in both strength and performance.

He achieved results he didn’t think possible, which only fuelled his motivation to keep pushing forward.

​“Two years ago, I had rotator cuff surgery and couldn’t do anything. Now I’m overhead pressing 50kg in total.”

​The changes Simon experienced went far beyond the physical. He was able to overcome past injuries and regain strength, all while feeling confident and safe under Federico’s guidance.

​“Physically, my body is more balanced, and mentally, I’ve let go of irrational fears about losing progress.”

​The transformation wasn’t just in his strength; Simon also experienced profound mental benefits.

He now feels more comfortable taking rest days, and he’s found a healthier balance in his diet and training approach.

Lizzy walked into Angel Gyms without any prior gym experience.

She felt nervous and unsure.

But from the very beginning, she knew she had found the right place.

It wasn’t just about working out; it was about feeling comfortable in a new environment where she could learn and grow at her own pace.

“With absolutely no experience in a gym, I came here to get started, and it was literally the perfect place.”

Lizzy walked into Angel Gyms without any prior gym experience.

She felt nervous and unsure.

But from the very beginning, she knew she had found the right place.

It wasn’t just about working out; it was about feeling comfortable in a new environment where she could learn and grow at her own pace.

“With absolutely no experience in a gym, I came here to get started, and it was literally the perfect place.”

​What stood out to Lizzy the most was the inclusive, supportive environment.

She wasn’t just thrown into the deep end—she was guided, supported, and encouraged every step of the way.

The atmosphere was unlike anything she had experienced before.

​“I think just overall the environment, the people here, just the atmosphere is so… For one, it’s so inclusive. You feel very safe, you feel very comfortable. There’s no pressure to kind of, I don’t know, act a certain way, look a certain way.”

​With Suli as her trainer, Lizzy quickly felt at ease.

What began as something intimidating turned into an enjoyable part of her routine.

She found herself looking forward to her sessions, not only because of the progress she was making but also because of the comfortable and supportive relationship she built with her trainer.

​“Suli’s amazing. She’s very approachable, very knowledgeable… it’s having that approachability and feeling so comfortable in the environment that you’re in that I think completely changes the experience from perhaps quite intimidating to something that’s actually really enjoyable that you can look forward to.”

It wasn’t just about physical strength.

Lizzy noticed significant mental shifts as well.

Suli’s guidance helped her not only push past her limits but also approach life with newfound confidence and motivation.

The support Lizzy received at Angel Gyms extended far beyond her fitness journey.

​“It’s almost as if you’re training with a friend rather than, you know, obviously she’s incredibly experienced… The whole experience has been really positive throughout and I think there’s a definite contrast between training somewhere like Angel and perhaps the alternatives that were offered to me at the time.”

​Outside the gym, Lizzy found herself more focused and goal-oriented, with a drive to achieve more in her everyday life.

Suli’s encouragement pushed her to be the best version of herself, both physically and mentally.

You can get what you need to get done and then… Lovely. And it’s really pushy. Yes. In a nice way though. You’re here to achieve goals and she’s going to help you achieve them.”

​For Lizzy, Angel Gyms is more than just a place to work out, it’s a community.

The personal support, inclusive atmosphere, and expert guidance set it apart from any gym experience she’s had before.

She’s seen firsthand the difference Angel Gyms makes, and she would recommend it to anyone looking to begin, or restart, their fitness journey.

​“The whole experience has been really positive throughout and I think there’s a definite contrast between training somewhere like Angel and perhaps the alternatives that were offered to me at the time.”

​At Angel Gyms, Lizzy found a space where she could truly thrive, and she’s never looked back.

Amy’s journey at Angel Gyms started unexpectedly.

She wasn’t always someone who enjoyed working out, but everything changed after she began training with Tilly.

Amy admits that she hadn’t been inside a gym for about eight years before Angel Gyms and struggled to stay consistent with her workouts.

​So we introduced her to our trainer Tilly.

“We’ve been training together for almost 16 weeks now, and honestly, it’s been a lot of fun.”

​“Tilly has actually made me fall in love with the process of seeing my muscles grow, seeing improvements in how much I can lift.”

​What once felt like a chore has now turned into something Amy genuinely looks forward to.

It’s the progress she sees with every session that keeps her coming back. Tilly’s coaching helped her embrace each step of her fitness journey, building her confidence and physical strength along the way.

​One of the things Amy loves most about training with Tilly is her ability to know when to push her and when to allow her to find her own rhythm.

​“She strikes a good balance between knowing when to push me and when I can go that one extra step… and when I’ve reached my limit.”

​This personalised support keeps every session both challenging and rewarding.

Amy had been looking for something different from the large, impersonal gyms she’d been to before. She wanted a gym where she could feel comfortable and supported, and Angel Gyms provided exactly that.

​“I really liked that it was more of that boutique, smaller studio feel… I felt like I wasn’t walking into a gym crowded with loads of people.”

​From her first consultation with Fede, she knew Angel Gyms would be the place to help her achieve her fitness goals.

​“When I sat down with Fede, I loved that we did a proper, thorough consultation. It made me feel like you guys were really going to make sure I had the best experience possible.”

​Now, after 16 weeks of training, Amy feels stronger, more confident, and more motivated than ever.

Nefeli came to Angel Gyms with the goal of building strength to improve her yoga practice.

Focusing more on her personal training, she found that it had an incredible impact on both her yoga and her overall strength and has found a balance between both sports.

“It’s going really well, actually. Alongside my personal training, I’ve upped my yoga schedule again, and I’ve found I’m able to hold poses for longer and be a lot stronger than I was before.”

Training with Tilly has helped Nefeli find that balance, not just physically but mentally too.

She now feels more confident in her strength and ability.

“I find that I can trust my body a lot more. I don’t know if it’s mental as well, but I’m starting to appreciate how much stronger I’m getting. That has also helped from a confidence perspective, which is great.“

Fitting fitness into her busy lifestyle has been a challenge, but with Tilly’s support, Nefeli has managed to make it work.

“Tilly’s great with flexibility. I’ve always done yoga in the mornings, and I don’t like working out late, so there’s a particular window that works. Tilly’s been great about finding that time that works for me and her.”

Consistency and commitment to herself have been key for Nefeli, and Tilly’s guidance has helped her stay accountable, especially when it comes to her nutrition.

“Tilly keeps me honest and also calls me out when I need it. My hardest area is always nutrition—I’ve got a really bad sweet tooth. She’s been very encouraging but also gentle as I try to navigate eating more protein.”

The mental and physical benefits of training at Angel Gyms have transformed Nefeli’s mindset and her approach to fitness.

“I’ve got a lot of confidence now. It’s more like a commitment to myself that I can do it. Often, you’re in your head more when you train alone, but when Tilly sees the difference week over week, it makes me feel like I can actually do the hard thing.”

Nefeli’s yoga practice and strength training have become more aligned, and she’s noticed tangible improvements in her performance.

When I took a sneak peek at my before and after photos, I definitely saw more muscle definition, especially in my arms, which is definitely cause for celebration.”

The supportive, safe environment that Tilly creates has been a big part of why Nefeli enjoys her sessions.

“Tilly brings her own energy that’s authentic to who she is, and she lets you be yourself too. She motivates you and creates a safe space to try your hardest, and if I mess up, it’s not the end of the world.”

With Tilly’s coaching and Angel Gyms’ supportive environment, Nefeli has found strength, confidence, and balance in her fitness journey.

When Meadhbh first came to Angel Gyms, she was facing not just physical challenges, but significant health issues.

After struggling with long COVID and PCOS, she knew she needed a safe and supportive environment to rebuild her strength and reclaim her health.

“Angel Gyms is a really nice, open environment—a safe space. I’d recommend it to anyone, whether you’re just getting into fitness, returning to it, or looking for something more relaxed than your usual gym.”

The effects of long COVID, combined with the weight gain caused by PCOS, made traditional gyms feel overwhelming.

Meadhbh had tried different places, but none felt right—until she found Angel Gyms.

“I went to different gyms in London and found them all quite intimidating. It seemed like a lot of people knew what they were doing, and it just didn’t seem like the right fit for me.”

That all changed when she came across Angel Gyms.

“Here, it very much feels like a safe space. No one’s looking at you, everyone’s so helpful. When I met Dan, he knew about PCOS, and that made me feel instantly comfortable. They eased me into a program with no pressure, and here I am, over a year later, still training and loving it.”

Beyond the physical gains, training at Angel Gyms has given Meadhbh a sense of empowerment and confidence she didn’t expect.

“Just little things, like getting out on my lunch break to do a workout with Tilly, have made a huge difference. I always come out of it feeling good, and I’m more productive when I go back to work.”

Angel Gyms wasn’t just a place to get fitter—it became a space for Meadhbh to reconnect with her body and find balance after her health struggles.

“I feel a lot better in myself, a lot more comfortable in my body. Even going to other fitness classes now, I don’t feel intimidated because Tilly and Dan have shown me the ropes.”

For Meadhbh, Angel Gyms is more than a gym, it’s a community where she’s been able to rebuild her health, find joy in fitness, and gain the confidence to keep pushing forward.
