Member Reviews for Personal Training in Aldgate
I would echo all the previous reviews, this place is special.
I’ve been here for over a year now, since it opened, and each session is interesting and testing. The coaches are superb. Danni, Ben Perks, Ben Gotting, Scott and Charlie – your energy and passion is brilliant and you make coming to the gym an enjoyable thing. Something I’d never achieved before.
As Arnold said, “there is nothing more motivating than progress” and the Foundry Gym makes this possible.
I’ve always struggled to do strength based exercises, and lacked confidence at the gym – always resorting to cardio previously.
Scott, Dannie, Charlie, Ben (and Ben) are so supportive, friendly and knowledgeable – and have created something truly special here. Cannot recommend anymore highly.
Foundry Aldgate Team – thank you so so much!
I initially found Foundry after trying a range of other options, from home workouts and YouTube sessions to cheaper gyms like PureGym, and even online coaching. While I lost some weight on my own (around 8–9 kg), I was struggling with consistency, injury prevention, and most importantly, building strength safely. That’s exactly where Foundry made all the difference.
✅ What I Loved:
• Expert, Attentive Coaches: Special shoutout to Danni, Ben, and Scott at Aldgate, and Jason, Emily at Bank. All of them have been outstanding, super clear in their guidance, experienced, and incredibly attentive to form and technique. I truly felt watched over and cared for during every session.
• Injury-Free for the First Time in Years: I’ve had recurring issues with my knee, ankles, and general joint stability. But since joining Foundry, I haven’t had a single injury, which is huge for me. The personalized coaching and close supervision during workouts clearly made the difference.
• Small Group Training That Works: PT sessions and classes are small (usually no more than 6 people), which means you get personalized feedback while still enjoying that motivating group energy. I loved training alongside people of different fitness levels — from fellow beginners to seriously strong individuals. It’s inspiring and pushes you to show up and give your best.
• Strong Community Vibe:
There’s a camaraderie in the classes that really makes it feel like you’re working out with friends. Over time, I started recognizing familiar faces and actually looked forward to seeing them again. That social accountability helped me stay consistent.
• Facilities That Feel Premium: The gyms are always spotless. Clean showers, towels, deodorant, pads for women, air con, they really thought of everything. It feels like a proper self-care space, not just a gym.
💬 A Couple Notes:
• Price: At around £350–£400/month, it’s definitely on the pricier side for me. But having experienced the difference in coaching, atmosphere, and care, I still think it’s 100% worth the cost — especially if you’re someone who needs structure, accountability, and real results.
• Why I’m Leaving (With a Heavy Heart): The only reason I’m stopping is because I’ve moved away from central London. If the price were a little lower, I’d honestly consider commuting back just to keep going. That’s how much I’ve loved it.
🎯 Final Verdict:
If you’re a beginner looking for proper guidance or someone more advanced who enjoys group training with structure, I wholeheartedly recommend Foundry. It’s a rare combo of smart planning, supportive coaches, and a genuinely fun, motivating atmosphere. I’m so grateful I found it.
The coaches commit themselves to knowing each member, their abilities and their training styles in order to deliver a tailored session, even where it is in a group setting. They make sure your form is right and help with progression and adapt any moves for injuries etc. They continue to push you when you’re not sure you’ve much more in the tank. A special shoutout to Scott who takes care to make sure everyone has a personalised session, making it feel like you’re in a 1-1 PT. He’s knowledgable and always remembers what you’ve done in the past and adapts sessions to make sure you’re really working towards your goals. He’s personable and welcoming and will make sure members feel welcome.
Charlie has incredible energy and consistently makes sure you have a great workout, at whatever level that may be he’ll be your biggest cheerleader.
Ben will make you realise you can do far more than you thought you could and will keep you motivated throughout a class to really get the most from a session.
The specially thought out programme has helped me stay consistent and see significant changes and improvements in not only my strength and fitness, but overall health and mental wellbeing too. It’s fair to say Foundry Aldgate has been life changing thanks to the coaches at Foundry.
It also wouldn’t be right to not comment on the fact that the other members are all very welcoming and supportive, they’ll cheer you on during sessions when you’re going for that PB!
There are frequent social and team events so you get to know other members and you will always be welcome at the other locations.
I couldn’t recommend Foundry any more and the investment you make in yourself with their membership will be 100% worth it.
The gym setup is clean and well equipped to make sure you never wait for anyone, it’s ready whenever you are.
They took a once grumpy workaholic zombie (myself) and turned him to an aspiring dad athlete. For that, I will always be grateful.
