The 30 Best Sport school in Belfast

“My friend Matt and I dropped into Lycan (formerly Gracie Barra) today, and right from the start we were made to feel completely at home. Aaron, Gary, and Graham were all super welcoming and gave us a great tour of the gym. We came for the seminars, open mat, and grading, and honestly, we had a blast. Graham took the time to chat with us about the club’s history, the recent rebrand, and what’s ahead with the new curriculum. You could really feel the passion behind it all. Today was the big relaunch, and the energy in the gym was high and positive. The rebrand looks sharp, the vibe was great, and the people were even better. Matt and I left buzzing, and we’re already excited to come back for another seminar!”

“MR Sports after school clubs offer a wide range of activities and the staff who run them are amazing. My daughter loves going to Dance & Drama and has been going for a few years now after school. The girls (Sapphire & Rebecca) who have run it have boosted my daughter’s confidence & helped her make friends. It’s not just about the activity with MR Sports-they truly care about children and want to make a positive impact. I can say from experience-they definitely do!”

“Couldn't ask for a better place to start learning BJJ. Incredibly welcoming and friendly atmosphere for all levels of ability and any age group! BJJS also have multiple black belt coaches with a wealth of knowledge on BJJ delivering the highest quality coaching and training. Wish I had joined here sooner!”

“Very pleased with results of Mark's treatment plan for me. Mark is very professional and clear in his instructions. A very friendly and easy to talk to person. I am happy to recommend making an appointment with him.”

“I can’t recommend Archie for what he has done for me highly enough. I arrived at his beautiful clinic a total mess, full of anxiety, emotional ,very fearful , and closed off. And I left feeling strong with in myself, at peace with a great sense of relief and contentment . Archie is a true professional, he has re wired my brain to a more positive way of thinking, and sent me away with tools I can use at home, and for this I am truly thankful .”

“My son has been attending Simon for the past few months with severe shin splints which he had been struggling with for a couple of years. The care and attention to the detail that he has recieved has been exceptional and he has made great progress and finally on the road to recovery. I can highly recommend Simon and the team at Replay Clinic”

“Fantastic service, never fails to deliver. Visiting Mairead is always an absolute pleasure. Highly recommended”

“I have trained at Icon since February of this year and I can undoubtedly say that it is a fantastic gym with an incredible community atmosphere. Dave and the coaches offer a high level of support, attention and commitment to all students, and have helped me feel welcomed and supported from day one, regardless of my experience level. The coaching is top notch with with a strong focus on fundamentals and technical progression. Whether you’re an experienced grappler or a complete beginner, the instructors will take the time to tailor their guidance to your needs, displaying a wide array of knowledge and genuine passion for the sport. The training schedule is flexible and offers a variety of classes throughout the week, making it easy to fit into my schedule as a student. The gym offers a positive, ego-free environment where everyone can learn and improve together. If you’re looking for a gym with excellent coaches and a welcoming community, I can’t recommend Icon highly enough.”

“Lloyd was very knowledgeable, patient and overall a great instructor for me. He was instrumental to passing my Cat B test on the first attempt. I would highly recommend!”

“Great service here. They're experts in what they do and have a great range of items for various sports.”

“I seem to be in this place every week these days. Great access and parking and easy ways to pay at the end. My small grumble would be that to pick up click and collect it's the same queue as returns so this can be a while which is off putting. Maybe this can be changed to mean a speedy way to collect orders because returns seem to take a bit longer.”

“Excellent facilities with great car parking.”

“It's great to see this place being well used”

“Went into podium 4 sport yesterday looking for new running shoes, asked for gait analysis at the till and was on the treadmill in less than 5 minutes, I was advised on what was suitable and given my choice to try on. Very pleased (although some sizes and colours weren't available instore I was told to try online) bought asics kayano 32s from jemma.”

“Nice homely place good for birthday partys”

“Really good gymnasium with full amenities including a swimming pool”

“Best value, less than half price would strongly recommend this shop to everyone.”

“The new gym is a huge upgrade and the courts are fantastic. Great staff at the club too”

“I had to return faulty walking shoes....the staff could not have been more welcoming, came away with my replacement....Great customer service”

“Very helpful staff especially the Manageress and an employee called Mel. The problem an online order in which the staff's right hand didn't know what their left hand was doing, useless is an understatement. But thanks to two great staff members in the store they got it sorted. For that I Thank Them.”

“I felt compelled to write this review in support of NDP and the technique of myofascial release. I have attended 5 physios in Northern Ireland over the past 15 years and NDP was/is the 5th and they have managed to resolve problems that 4 other physios were unable to provide satisfactory long term solutions to. I had tried the standard, "pummeling" approach used by most physios - and it simply doesn't work for me. Julia recommended myofascial release after she quickly realised standard physio does not provide a suitable long term solution to muscular issues that I had. Erica sorted a shoulder problem that I'd had for over 20 years in 3 sessions; resolved other inflexible back issues and more recently, knee muscle issues in 2 sessions allowing me to complete a 10k in France. I recommend NDP to friends regularly and I wouldn't do that if I wasn't confident in their abilities and professionalism. Also, best to resolve issues in the practice before bombing the internet about your issues - that would be the adult approach.”

“Great place to buy a uniform, I ordered two summer dresses, they didn’t have it right away - they send me over few days later with 1 extra!! Thank you !!!”

“Incredible experience highly reccomend”

“Great Summer Camp. Highly Recommend”
