Athena Perform has genuinely been the best gym experience of my life. The quality of training, the knowledge and support from the coaches, and the incredible sense of community make it completely stand out. The coaching is next-level — supportive, encouraging, and technically brilliant. The Olympic weightlifting club in particular has completely transformed my confidence and my progress. I’ve hit lifts and learned technique I never thought I’d be capable of, and the coaches make every session feel achievable, safe, and fun. What really sets Athena apart, though, is the community. It’s welcoming, motivating, and full of people who lift each other up (literally and figuratively!). No ego, no judgment — just genuine encouragement. I can’t recommend Athena Perform enough. If you want expert coaching, real progress, and a supportive community, this is the gym to be in.

Joining Athena has been one of the best decisions I've ever made for my health and wellbeing. I'm nearly 70 and never thought I’d say this, but I actually enjoy going to the gym now. The group sessions and friendly atmosphere have made such a difference. My strength and balance have really improved and I can’t thank the instructors enough for all their support. From day one, the atmosphere has been welcoming, motivating, and genuinely uplifting. Every single trainer here is exceptional. They are knowledgeable, encouraging, and truly invested in helping you reach your goals. Their guidance has made a huge difference in my progress, both physically and mentally. The equipment is always clean and well-maintained, which makes every workout feel safe and effective. The exercises I’ve been given are tailored to my needs and consistently push me in the right direction. I’ve seen real results—not just in strength and fitness, but in my overall mindset and energy levels. Since joining, my mental clarity has improved, my confidence has grown, and I feel stronger than ever. This gym isn’t just a place to work out—it’s a place to grow, reset, and thrive. Highly recommended to anyone looking to make a meaningful change in their lifestyle.

Thank you so much to Dan for helping my daughter get back to fitness and playing sport competitively again (after tearing her ACL) Dan’s 1-1 strength and conditioning sessions were tailored to my daughter’s needs. He is very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. It has been brilliant to see her strength and fitness return and the confidence she has in using her knee and playing sport competitively again. She has returned to cricket this season stronger and Dan has played a huge part in this. I have also learnt a lot from the sessions and the importance of strength and conditioning. I would definitely recommend Dan and the team at Athena.

I’ve been a member of Athena since Feb 2024 and it truly is unlike any other gym I’ve attended. The focus, time and dedication behind strength and fitness is powerful. The coaches are knowledgeable and supportive. Dan and Rich found the niche within the industry and have created something extraordinary. Highly recommend ⭐️

Coming on a month since joining this place and can hand on heart say it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time. Athena Performance have it down! From the minute I walked through the door I was made to feel welcome and included. They cater for all ages, fitness backgrounds and abilities. If you’re wanting to embark on a fitness journey and you’re after that added support and guidance in a friendly, fun environment then I highly recommend.

I have been training with Richard for a couple of years now and he has really helped me to stay accountable and be consistent in my training. Even when I falter he is always encouraging and never judgmental. I have learnt so much from him and have seen a real change in myself since training with him. Athena performance gym is a genuinely lovely place to visit even for those who lack confidence like myself, everyone is super friendly. You will struggle to find a better place to work out in Redditch.

Coaching at the highest possible standard. Well planned and delivered sessions including an intro week for all new members. No egos here, just great people achieving incredible results. If you want to improve performance, how you appear aesthetically and learn something new whilst surrounded by those who are just as invested in your journey as you are, then Athena is the place for you. Highly Recommended.

A member for a 3 or 4 months now after losing motivation with the usual gym grind. Started boxing classes as I wanted to try something new and was welcomed openly to the sessions by the trainers and the existing members. A great friendly environment without that familiar "gym ego" atmosphere that can put people off. I have enjoyed my time so far and would recommend highly to all, from experienced gym goers to total newbies. I look forward to training again now...thanks Athena.
