    Needed a CrossFit to do Open 22.2 while traveling through Ireland and I happened upon Perpetua in Dublin. While it’s not a traditional CF box, they have CF certified coaches and judges, in addition to offering a full gym. Eoghan McGregor (pronounced “Owen”) was amazing. He was responsive to my many email inquiries, he made sure I was welcomed on day one, he agreed to come in on his day off to judge my 22.2 effort, and he even made it possible for my travel mates to pop in and jeer me on, even though they weren’t there to workout. Front desk staff, facilities maintenance guys, the coffee shop people, the other coaches and every single member I met were all warm, welcoming, professional and amazing. I give this place a 10 out of 10!

    Stop playing your music full blast of Saturday morning or I will call the police. This is a residential area not a nightclub.

    Best gym in Dublin, really. Great instructors, awesome classes. Here's where you come if you want to have a good workout! It is not a joke! I am a Crossfit client, and went to basically all the other classes they offer as well: rhythm ride, ride60, ride 45, sweat and rumble (this one only on Lennox, unfortunately, but it is worth it). And all of them, no exception, are amazing! The instructors are all paying attention to you, even when the classes are full. The facilities are well kept, with amenities, like shampoo, deodorant and towels, if you need to shower. I would say just the lockers are sometimes not working because someone didn't unlock their password. And this could be checked more regularly... maybe?? Another plus, at least on the Windmill Lane is the Mojo Bar, where you can order a protein shake before class from the counter and have it ready after your workout. I like it specially when I am in a rush to go to work and don't have time to prepare a snack. I am really happy with my choice, after some deceptions here in Dublin, I finally found the gym I absolutely love.

    I've been attending Perpetua Fitness for six months, enjoying the T&S classes despite their steep prices. The real letdown, however, is their severely lacking customer service. Due to illness, I couldn't attend a class, and despite them assuring me a credit, they later claimed it was backdated incorrectly. As a result, I had to pay an extra 24 Euros for one class. This lack of transparency and follow-through is unexpected from a "premium" fitness establishment. While the classes are good, their customer service has left me with a negative impression. Exercise caution before committing to their packages.

    Great gym specially for classes. Plenty of options and space. The gym space with weights and workout machines is rather small and with not many options.

  • 1/5 Harry L. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a poor experience, Cancelled my JustGym membership because the shower facilities were not in operation, When joining I was not informed. I was then told I should have seen the one sign on the wall in the toilet that stated the showers were not in operation, when I was joining rather than been told. Perpetua then took 90 euro from my bank account 7 weeks later for no reason. I am no struggling to get it back.

    The best CrossFit gym I’ve ever been part of- fun programming, gorgeous facilities, social events outside of class, and awesome coaches! They keep adding new CrossFit class times, and have even added Olympic lifting and gymnastics! 💙

    A great ambience and great atmosphere the only reason I’m giving 4 stars is because is kind of small space for gym area. Apart from that everyone and everything is great 😊

    Loved dropping in to this CF gym while I was in Dublin for a work trip. The coaching was excellent for all levels, the members and coaches were super welcoming and friendly - making me feel so included! I came three times because of this! The workouts were fun and challenging, too. They have a coffee/fuel bar which was so cool (wish I had one of those in my home gym!). The overall layout and space was really well utilized too.

    Love the rhythm ride classes. The gym is modern and has a premium look. Something that can be hard to find in Dublin.

    Love their CrossFit sessions, and would be a member in the spin membership if it weren’t for how difficult it is to get out of the membership!

    Tread and Shred is my absolute most favorite workout! It's intense in the best way, and I always leave feeling incredible and accomplished. Love the vibe, the front desk, the coaches… Would definitely recommend it!

  • 5/5 Jane L. 9 months ago on Google
    Really great, challenging classes. Kind of like a Barry's but also with spinning. Love the spinning and running classes - haven't tried crossfit. Classes are definitely worth the price, but the gym is very expensive for what it is. Only big enough for 2-3 people to comfortably be in at a time, and equipment is mediocre. Facilities are really modern and clean. You don't need to bring towels as they provide this at the front desk. There is also a health bar at the entrance which is a lovely addition. Lockers are the pin-code ones, but I do find that 4/5 of them don't work and without my own colourful lock I often forget which locker I used haha!

    One of the best box I ever trained in (I have been doing CrossFit since 2017 in 4 different countries!). Exceptional building, good changing rooms, towels provided. Cold shower available. Classes are full but never too crowded, quality of coaching is good. Strongly recommended.

    Best gym in Dublin. State of the art gym facility and fun but challenging crossfit classes (also great Spinning and SWEAT classes if you are not into crossfit). Would definitely recommend it.

    Lorraine is the most amazing pre-natal and post-natal coach. Her pre-natal PT sessions were excellent - always felt safe, yet she kept me fit and healthy throughout the 9 months. Her post-natal classes were the highlight of my maternity leave. Loved the bi-weekly mum and baby exercise classes. Thank you so much 🫶🏼

    Cleanest Gym in Dublin, the classes and trainer are great. The only thing they could work on is the Wifi. I constantly get disconnected and half of the time it doesn’t even work.

    From the second you walk through the door at Perpetua you feel welcome and part of a community. The facilities are excellent and the attention to detail is evident in every area of the gym. The coaches are next level! All of the classes - CrossFit and Studio are challenging and fun and you are pushed to your limit. Can't recommend highly enough.

    Perpetua has become my go-to fitness spot in Dublin. I'm a huge fan of their Hyrox classes – they push me to my limits! The Tread & Shred classes are also fantastic. The coaches are super supportive and clearly know their stuff. Plus, the facilities are always spotless and the protein shakes are a delicious way to refuel.

    This gym is top notch. I was in Dublin for a week on a business trip and dropped in every day I could. Simply put, the coaches are fantastic. Everyone was very welcoming and embodied the CrossFit community that I am a huge fan of. I highly recommend this gym to anyone in the area! They will help you get where you want to be regardless of your fitness level, and you will have a ton of fun doing it.

  • 1/5 Fernanda M. 1 year ago on Google
    Horrible place ! I don’t recommend it at all…. Staff is really rude and they “think” they are better… I don’t know how!!!! Please make yourself a favor and go to Westwood or other better gym with more quality staff and better equipments ! Don’t recommend it at all…

    Simply the best gym in Dublin. I’ve been a member for a year now and I have really enjoyed my time spent here. The space, equipment, members, staff are phenomenal. There’s plenty of space and equipment to do Just gym and same for CrossFit. But the best thing about this gym is the positive energy you get from the minute you walk in, staff always greet you with a friendly smile and in the gym or classes everyone is focused and not messing around. And to give this review credibility, the only thing they could work on is the members WIFI, but you don’t actually need it since you’re there to workout!

    I've been a member at Perpetua for nearly two years, initially drawn in by the phenomenal CrossFit community showcased on Instagram. The instruction provided during the Academy by Craig and Eoghan was exceptional, creating the impression that I had found my ideal "community." However, post-Academy, my experience took a different turn. The sense of "community" dwindled, and the coaches weren't as friendly as those during the Academy. Initially, I attributed this to being new and decided to give it time. Unfortunately, it has become evident that Perpetua may not prioritize the "CrossFit" community as much as it projects, instead appearing to cater more to a niche of "click young people." The workouts have shifted away from a "CrossFit-focused" approach. If your goal is a boot camp for general fitness, Perpetua may be suitable. However, for those specifically seeking a true CrossFit experience, it might be worth exploring alternative options. I hope this feedback provides valuable insights for improvement.

😠 The facilities are amazing and there is an amazing range of equipment available but unfortunately that's as far as it gets. We start from when they decided to "renovate" the spa area and never mentioned any expected date to reopen. Instead, they would always say that "next month" it would be ready...
