I have always loved my Pilates sessions with Bea, especially using the reformer. She’s guides me and trains me to do my best so that I can strengthen and build my core, gradually improving my health and fitness levels. I would and have always recommend Bea for anyone interested in improving their health and lifestyle. Thanks Bea!! x

Been coming to Drakes for about 3 years now. Came to get in shape for an event (wedding!), and ended up staying for the quality of service. Beyond the 1-1 PT, the gym atmosphere is friendly, inclusive and the opposite of a "show off" place. Different people come to train and mind their own business, and I've never felt intimidated (whilst I have at other studios and gyms). The fact you can do pilates and body composition assessments is definitely a plus! PS. there are great hair dryers and straighteners in the women's which is a must for me. XX

Wayne is a fantastic personal trainer, and a great guy. Working with him at Drake’s is a top-notch experience. Over the course of a year and a half I lost a significant amount of body fat, while hitting new personal records with many lifts. He knows his stuff!

Working out with both Wayne (general training) and Bea (reformer Pilates) was the best training experience I have ever had. Both of them were incredibly attuned to me and quickly dialed in on how to get the best out of me during sessions (which was different than how they interacted with my husband). I worked hard and was in great shape -- particularly in the time leading up to my wedding. They made sure to make me feel like I was always working hard, but never out of my comfort zone -- and never working towards a number on a scale, but towards my general health. Plus, seeing both Wayne and Bea was like going to hang out with a friend so sessions were something I looked forward to all week. We moved away last year and I very much miss having Drakes Gym nearby!

Such a fantastic gym that was recommended to me by several people - super intimate and friendly with everything you could possibly need. I always used to feel overwhelmed going to big corporate gyms, but at Drakes you really get first class training and attention with zero inhibitions. Wayne in particular is awesome and is helping me achieve my goals. The mix of reformer Pilates, resistance training and cardio is excellent and they have loads of equipment in a fantastic super central location. Highly recommend!

We used Drakes Gym to provide weekly online classes for our employees to boost well being during lockdown. It was a massive hit mainly due to Bea!! She is absolutely fantastic at what she does!

Great gym area with a great team - Pearce and Wayne have been fantastic throughout

Love Drakes Gym, Wayne and his team are always professional and very supportive. The gym is a nice, inclusive and friendly environment, with people at all kinds of levels and stages of fitness. Highly recommend.

Wayne’s commitment to his clients is great - I went from a very unwilling gym goer to someone who hates to miss a session all down to Wayne. I have become stronger and fitter, it’s changed how I feel about myself in such a positive way.

Just love this place. It's small, intimate, not like those chain gyms and all the team are friendly. I've been doing Reformer with Bea for a while now and have to say, it's the only time I have ever made it to the gym in the mornings early and enjoyed it! Not only that, it's not the easiest place for me to get to, from home or work, but the work outs make it worth the effort. Bea is great, she's tough on me, but also understands those days, when a bit more coffee is needed before going hardcore! I would recommend Drakes to anybody and only wish I'd known about it earlier.

Pilates at Drake's Gym is amazing! I've been training there for over a year and seen very positive results. I feel trimmer firmer and toned. Thanks to Bea the best personal instructor ever

Joining this gym was a game-changer for me. The supportive community and positive vibes make it a place I genuinely look forward to visiting.
