The 30 Best Exercise motivation in London

“I used to do muai thai kickboxing many years ago. Following a injury to my hip I had to stop. I never thought I'd be able to engage in this sport I love so much. Well, until I started training with Jimmy about 5 months ago. His understanding of the body, injury prevention and rehabilitation, really helped. The range of movement in my hip continues to get better and stronger. I am faster, stronger, my technique continues to improve. I really connected well with Jimmys style of training, as its about training like a athlete, the discipline and commitment. Also his passion for the sport. When I think about where I started when I first started training with Jimmy to where I am now, I feel very thankful, plus proud of my journey and I am excited to continue progressing my skills in this sport I love very much! And its all because of the sessions with Jimmy, so thank you so much for being the best and always believing that I can do it! I always feel like a total champion after our sessions!”

“I didn’t purchase anything but have to give a 5 star review due to the honesty of the store owner and advising me against purchasing headgear that wouldn’t be an appropriate fit! Wishing you success !”

“Been here to offer my service multiple times and love this place , I highly recommend for birthday parties , staff are friendly and kids will have a lovely time ! Upstairs where children eat also good space and clean ! Parking not a problem as they have their own , I always find it easy park aswell !!”

“All was fine on the day: staff of the local Trinity College London test centre in Cardiff, who did the testing on behalf of Ukenglishvi, were polite and professional. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the test itself was done via video link with the examiner in a remote location. The test was fair and carried out in a relaxed atmosphere.”

“Steve and Emma are both amazing at what they do. I have attended for back and shoulder problems, Pilates and also have brought my baby boy to see them. They are always very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommended.”

“I visited Bodysmiths after injuring and herniating a disc in my lower back. Thanks to the work of Felicity and Gemma I now feel back to how I was pre injury. Really good service by them both and I recommend them thoroughly.”

“One of the best workouts I’ve ever had! Highly recommend trying it out!”

“This is a fantastic club to learn BJJ. The lead instructor has great expertise and is an excellent teacher. Classes are well organised and thought through. Good discipline and manners shown by teachers, assistants and students, which makes creates a great atmosphere and environment to train in, and therefore a top choice for your BJJ journey. There are adult/children's classes on offer here”

“I’ve been training at Team Shark Martial Arts Academy, and it’s been an incredible experience. The coaches are highly skilled, passionate, motivational, and dedicated to helping students improve, whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced fighter. The classes are well-structured, combining technique, conditioning, and real fight application. Muay Thai, Muay Boran, and Kickboxing are taught with deep knowledge and respect for tradition while also being adapted for modern training. The atmosphere is welcoming and supportive. As a complete beginner, I was initially hesitant and a bit confused, but from day one, both the coach and students at all levels made me feel welcome. They took the time to explain best practices and even shared their own experiences from when they started the same journey. With their support, I’m already feeling more confident and starting to see real improvements. This is truly a great place to train, whether you're looking to improve fitness, learn self-defense, or compete. If you’re looking for high-quality martial arts training in a friendly and motivating environment, I highly recommend Team Shark Martial Arts Academy!”

“Such a wonderful academy. The instructors are really good and they are attentive of everyone, even with a large training group. Everyone is super friendly and the timetable is full, you can essentially go every day of the week if you want to. Definitely recommended”

“Best BJJ gym in every aspect!! Price, quality of classes, community, facility, all 10/10! Only place I found that has both a great BJJ training area and also a free weight gym(also boxing, lifting, and yoga) fixed price for unlimited classes. The BJJ community is super welcoming and friendly, great for meeting new people. AND they have amazing showers AND A STEAM ROOM!!!”

“When I first joined with David, I was extremely nervous and self conscious as I had let my fitness levels drop so much and I had gained a lot of weight. The thought of stepping foot in a gym made me feel uneasy but from the very first session, David made me feel extremely comfortable and learned what my fitness goals were to create a personal plan to get me to them. As the sessions progressed, I found myself looking forward to going to my PT sessions. David is great, likeable and so easy to get on with. David has a private gym which is well equipped and well maintained, the gym itself is kept very clean and organised. The gym has free parking and great public transport links too.”

“I just completed the 4 week beginner course at Ealing Pole Studio, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! This was my first time trying pole dancing, and I was honestly a bit intimidated at first. However, Alex, our instructor, was absolutely amazing. She was attentive, calm, and incredibly persistent in helping me and the other students master the moves. What stood out the most was how invested she was in our success not just in getting the moves right, but in teaching us the technique behind them. Her focus on building a solid understanding of each move made a huge difference in my progress. I’ve already been surprised by how much I’ve achieved in just four weeks. If you’re considering starting your pole dancing journey, I highly recommend this course. I’m excited to start the improvers class to see what else is possible!”

“I had an incredible sports massage session with Sam — truly an amazing therapist. From the moment I walked in, Sam made me feel comfortable and listened carefully to my needs. The massage was both therapeutic and relaxing, targeting the exact areas that needed attention. I could feel the difference straight away: improved mobility, less tension, and a real sense of recovery. Sam has a great mix of professionalism and genuine care, with a deep knowledge of how the body works. It’s clear he’s passionate about what he does, and it shows in the results. Whether you’re dealing with soreness, training recovery, or just want to feel your best, I can’t recommend Sam highly enough.”

“Really great service at this running shop! The two guys working there helped me out with a gait analysis and measured my feet to figure out the best shoes for my overpronation. They were super helpful and explained everything clearly. I ended up getting a pair of Saucony running shoes, and I’m loving them so far-they feel really comfortable and supportive. Definitely planning to shop here again next time I need new trainers!”

“Friendly environment, well organised Brazilian Jiu Jitsu training. I can't say enough good things about this place and the team.”

“I recently had the pleasure of completing a nutrition course at Train for Gains Academy, and I am thrilled to share my overwhelmingly positive experience. The academy's commitment to excellence truly sets them apart, making it a standout choice for anyone seeking to enhance their knowledge in the realm of nutrition. I was instantly pleased with Train for Gains Academy's thorough and well-structured program. In addition to being educational, the course material was thoroughly presented to accommodate students with different levels of prior knowledge. Carlton showed that he had a thorough command of the material and a sincere desire to see his pupils succeed. I was able to put the knowledge I learned in the nutrition course to use right away since it skilfully combined theoretical ideas with practical applications. I wholeheartedly recommend Train for Gains Academy to anyone looking to delve into the world of nutrition. The exceptional quality of their courses, combined with the passion and expertise of their instructors, makes it a top choice for individuals seeking a transformative learning experience. I am grateful for the knowledge gained and the positive impact this course has had on my understanding of nutrition. Thank you, Train for Gains Academy, for exceeding my expectations and providing an unparalleled educational journey!”

“I have wanted to do dance classes for all of my adult life and always chickened out due to stage fright/anxiety, fear of being judged and under qualified at even “casual” classes. At the start of this year I pulled the trigger and did some taster sessions at Studio K and never looked back. All the instructors and members are so welcoming and friendly. A variety of levels of fitness and body types (which is refreshing, especially in ballet!) and everyone from people who have never danced to seasoned dancers. It has been a wonderful social experience and chance to be able to indulge in a range of dance styles I never thought I’d be able to do in the same place plus a discovery of others (Waacking is life changing). I only wish I had time to go more often! Thank you Studio K - especially Ginger and Sarah who I normally do classes with. Try out the taster sessions - you won’t regret it!”

“Great job, really quick and always prepared to go the extra mile. The roof clean was absolutely amazing and the whole house and garden was more tidy afterwards than before the job. I will be recommending Shine on Uk to anyone who asks. Also, the gutter cleaning is superb”

“Great experience on my first visit to U&R (20-Aug). Good advice that respected my novice trail running experience and concerns I had about footcare. Really delighted with the service and highly recommend U&R.”

“Ana is such an amazing instructor. She made the class so fun and enjoyable while learning very key skills. I would definitely recommend her classes to everyone!”

“OTR is a friendly and welcoming studio! It’s really unique as it caters well to new beginners in dance looking to build confidence. Missie the studio owner brings her full self to classes and is remarkable.”

“Incredible efficient and speedy service to have your tennis racket restringed at £15 if you provide your own strings. This is a bargain compared to shops surrounding the area! Team, keep up the good work and service provided for the community!”

“What a fantastic place to have in a community. Not only is it great for picking up sporting supplies, the staff and security are friendly/helpful, AND there are all kinds of activities going on upstairs. These are affordable and provide a safe space to try out an activity. As a result, Canada Water has become a great place to live if you’re into sports / trying out new activities. Shout out to the taekwondo classes - these have been the highlight for me and I 10/10 recommend them.”

“Great service item arrived earlier than schedule... Will definitely buy from again. I've been using the bands just over a week now and they are great. Helping me with my slow recovery from a shoulder operation...”

“Good facilities with friendly staff and Paul at reception is amazing. I attend Hampton sometimes for badminton and the atmosphere is great and the coach Mannie is fantastic. They have 4 courts inside the sports hall.”

“Quality football pitch. Happy to return!”

“I’ve been going to AYB for over a year and it’s by far the best dance studio I’ve been to. The teachers are supportive, patient and really cares for those that want to build their dance techniques and skills. Not only that, they also make it a safe space for the community to go and shake a stressful day away and escape from reality for an hour or two. And to top it off, the people that go here are so friendly and give off such a great vibe and make you feel like you’re not alone. I’ve met some really nice people here and made some friends along the way. Forever grateful for the teachers and the community at AYB ”
