I stumbled across SMC 18 months ago and I’ve never looked back! My training has gone from strength to strength and after also having PT with Lydia, my technical lifts are also making good progress. The confidence she has given me in my training has seen me enter CrossFit competitions; something I never ever thought I would do! Lydia and all the coaches at SMC are fabulous! They are patient, knowledgeable, kind, caring and always have our best interests at heart. Each session is fun, different and challenging. There’s always an alternative option so that if I can’t do something, they all make sure I can work towards doing it. The best vibes, the best people and quite simply, the best place to train in the valley!

So glad I joined SMC. Such a nice welcoming community, I've been doing crossfit for about 4 years now. I've recently joined a few months ago, so It was pretty daunting to start a new gym...But there seriously is no egos...I feel confident about my training going forward with Lydia and the coaches. They're really attentive and supportive and have worked around my previous injuries. Cannot recommend enough. The strong juniors has also been great for my kids and Lucie is exceptionally patient and enthusiastic with all the kids. Excited for the future at SMC

I joined SMC following a friend recommending it to me due to personal reasons and it was the best thing I did. Everyone is so friendly, supportive and encouraging. I was taught from the beginning as I was brand new to strength training and guided through how to build my weight safely. They have been so supportive and adapted workouts when needed and pushed just enough to improve my confidence. Best thing I did was joining 😊

SIMPLY THE BEST!! I have been coming to CrossFit SMC for nearly 2 years now and rocking up in that dead time between Christmas and New Year 2021 was still one of the best decisions I have ever made. The coaches are first class in both knowledge and ability and they always strive to get the best out of you in each and every session. I am antisocial and a bit of a hermit at heart but this community makes me want to leave the house regularly. My strength, fitness, confidence and wellbeing has massively improved and at nearly 50 years old I am doing things I would have never imagined doing.....Wall walks being one of them!! What a wonderful place ❤️

I joined SMC for my first ever CrossFit class back in February and became a full member in May - it's been an incredible experience from day one. The coaches here are top-notch, always providing personalised guidance and pushing each person to reach their own fitness goals. The sense of community is awesome; everyone is supportive and motivating. The variety of workouts keeps things exciting, and allows you to progress in each CrossFit movement. I've seen improvements in my strength and endurance since I started, and found a love for Olympic lifting too 🏋🏼‍♀️ If you're looking for a fantastic CrossFit gym, this is the place to be! Oh and they are dog friendly too, what’s not love 🐶🩵

In the last few years I’ve made so many excuses not to get up in the morning and go and work out but from the very first session I came too, I knew I was going to love it. Everyone is so friendly, welcoming and it’s like you have your own little cheer leaders. The coaches are amazing and have patience of saints(Lucy needs it with me and my Snatches 😂) They all individually have so much knowledge and make you feel at ease every time you walk in to the unit!!

Not your average crossfit gym! This community makes the hard graft so much fun along the way. I joined almost 12 months ago and everyone has made me feel so welcome! It’s like I’ve never been anywhere else The coaches are so knowledgeable, experienced and supportive of your goals! My confidence and progression in both gymnastics and big Olympic lifts is all down to their belief in me. The best place with the best people

A friend introduced me to SMC at the back end of 2022 when I was going through a really tough time and my confidence and self esteem was none existent. I’ve loved it from the first session. It’s a really friendly and welcoming gym no matter what level you are at with no egos. There’s a great range of classes throughout the week. The coaches are fantastic and really help you to break down the movements in order to build up confidence and will always offer alternatives to help with this. Both my physical strength and mental well-being have improved massively since starting. Ive always avoided the weights areas in commercial gyms, however now have the confidence to use free weights etc in the gym to follow the wods when I can’t get to SMC. Although I live over 10 miles away it is well worth the travel as It’s the best gym I’ve found.
