Barbelle Health: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Barbelle is no ordinary Gym... I never enjoyed going to the gym until I joined Barbelle. I can honestly say that I am now hooked and wouldn't go anywhere else. Ellen and the staff are all absolutely fantastic and make training lots of fun. They is a great timetable and choice of classes which allows lots of flexibility. They organise lots of charity and sporting events outside of the gym also. There is such a wonderful sense of community in Barbelle and it is a great way to meet new people.

Fantastic experience: Barbelle Health come highly recommended from me. I was nervous about joing up but Barbelle is a wonderful environment with a great atmosphere, which is created by both the coach's and the client's. I can't praise the coach's enough they are a great support and always there for each and every client, offering support and encouragment on the floor, assisting with dietary advice, making modifications during sessions etc. I myself have nerve damage in my leg following an operation and they always ensure that my work outs are adjusted appropriately when necessary. I also have MS and since I've joined I have seen a definitive improvement in my MS symptoms as I have built up my strength. The flexability of their program and the app they use make it so easy to fit the sessions in around a busy lifestyle. I am attending now for over a year and my only regret is that I didn't join sooner.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Debra! We're thrilled to hear that you feel at home in our Barbelle community and that our coaches have been able to support you on your journey. Your progress and improvement in your symptoms are truly inspiring, and we're honored to be a part of your story.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of Barbelle Health for 7 months now, and it has been an incredible experience! What truly sets them apart is the one-on-one support—the trainers genuinely care about your progress and take the time to guide you based on your individual goals and fitness level. The atmosphere is fun and motivating, Whether you're a beginner or experienced, the staff ensures you feel comfortable and challenged at the same time. Would highly recommend . Super place

Fantastic experience: I will be a member of Barbelle for one year next month and I am so happy I made the decision to book a consultation on a cold winter’s evening. Barbelle is such a welcoming and friendly place to go. It is a really inclusive environment with all ages and there is absolutely no emphasis put on how you look, it is all about how you feel. I was never a sporty person - I would watch sport until the cows come home but never enjoyed training myself. I have been in gyms before and always fell away after a few weeks, so I can’t believe how much I get out of the Lift sessions. I feel stronger and more motivated. I go early in the morning and feel great heading to work afterwards. The encouragement and support I have received from the coaches has been second to none. The other members are welcoming and we have great fun at the sessions. I would highly recommend picking up the phone and making that initial call. It sounds like a cliche but it is true. I am so happy that I did.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience, Sarah! We're thrilled to hear that you've enjoyed your time with us at Barbelle and that the Lift sessions have made such a positive impact on your life. It's fantastic to know that you feel stronger and more motivated, and we appreciate your kind words about our coaches and community. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we look forward to continuing to support you on your journey!
Fantastic experience: Barbelle is a truly exceptional group. I started with Barbelle as I was keen to learn the basics of strength training and how I could work new forms of training into my routine. I struggled with many small sports injuries build up over the years. Althought this wasn't my primary goal with Barbelle, I genuinely felt improvement in my sense of strength and stability after only two weeks with the wonderful Barbelle team. Barbelle has one of the best fitness studio atmosphere's that I've ever encountered. It's a welcoming inclusive space to work at your own pace while at the same time, considerate attentive encouragement is constantly present. I wanted to work on one particular movement outside of class plans. Ellen provided me with tailored guidance and practical in-studio support to help me improve. This is a fitness studio, a business, and a community that I would recommend to most anyone but in particular those looking for a friendly, welcoming environment to learn, develop or even perhaps perfect strength training for a plethora of personal benefits.
Fantastic experience: Barbelle Health is a gym experience with a difference. There is no judgement, just support & encouragement, and a friendly & welcoming environment. I love the lunchtime classes, which are a mere 30 minutes long and easy to fit in during your lunch break, leaving you energised for the day. I would definitely recommend trying out Barbelle Health in 2024 if you wish to develop healthy new habits and a fresh approach to fitness.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend barbelle, Ellen and the the team are extremely welcoming and make fitness fun. I was extremely conscious starting off….but after the first session I couldn’t wait to get back for more. I love the afternoon spin class. It’s like being in a disco
Fantastic experience: I look forward to my lifts each week. Great coaching and fun too.
Fantastic experience: Friendly atmosphere, great classes, I highly recommend it.
Fantastic experience: I love Barbelle Gyms Lunch Time Sweat, its easy to be consistent with their great range of classes. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: A Fitness Oasis: Barbelle Health Delivers Fun, Body-Positive Vibes!" Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5) I joined Barbelle Health back in March, and let me tell you, it has been an absolute game-changer for me! This place is not just a gym; it's a lively community that radiates positive energy and embraces a body-positive ethos. From day one, I felt a warm welcome from both the staff and fellow members. The atmosphere is refreshingly different from traditional gyms – it's fun, inclusive, and geared towards everyone feeling good about themselves. No judgment here, just an uplifting vibe that motivates you to be your best self. What sets Barbelle Health apart is its commitment to body positivity. It's not just a tagline; it's woven into the fabric of the gym culture. The trainers are supportive and encouraging, fostering an environment where everyone, regardless of fitness level, feels comfortable and empowered to pursue their health goals. The variety of classes and workouts keeps things exciting. Whether you're into high or low intensity sessions, there's always something on the schedule to cater to your preferences. The instructors are not only experts in their field but also passionate about making fitness enjoyable. Beyond the workout sessions, Barbelle Health organise community events that strengthen the sense of camaraderie. It's not just about getting fit; it's about building connections and having a blast while doing it. I've made friends here that share the same commitment to a healthy lifestyle, making the journey even more enjoyable. Facility-wise, Barbelle Health is well-equipped with top-notch amenities. Clean, spacious, and with a positive aesthetic, it's a place where you genuinely look forward to spending time. The attention to detail in maintaining a hygienic and welcoming space doesn't go unnoticed. In summary, Barbelle Health has transformed my fitness journey into a joyous adventure. If you're seeking a gym that goes beyond the conventional, prioritises inclusivity, and makes fitness fun, look no further. I'm grateful to be part of this fantastic community .
Fantastic experience: Last year, I joined Barbelle after a fairly lengthy break from any kind of training. The team (trainers and the other members) have created a brilliant atmosphere that's warm and encouraging and supportive in all the ways. This time last year I had never done a push up, and now I can do 30 without crying. I can lift up heavy and heavier things. I've discovered new places to eat, nail salon recommendations and simple switches to improve my nutrition. The class sizes are small which means the trainers work with you and help you perfect your technique. You will definitely be encouraged to push yourself but most importantly to believe in yourself. In the interest of balance, I should warn you that the team are so enthusiastic about "Dip in the Nip" that you'll start thinking it's a good idea too...
Fantastic experience: Barbelle Health provides a supportive fun environment helping everyone achieve their goals. Ellen has created a wonderful community, having fun while getting fit go hand in hand.
Fantastic experience: Love it there!
Fantastic experience: One of the standout features of this gym is its unwavering commitment to body positivity. There is an emphasis on the importance of self-acceptance, health, and overall well-being. It celebrates all body types and encourages individuals to love and appreciate themselves at every stage of their fitness journey. Ellen and Amy-Lou truly understand that fitness goals should be driven by personal satisfaction and health, rather than societal pressures or unrealistic goals. They are not just knowledgeable professionals but also passionate individuals who genuinely care about their clients' progress. They provide consistent encouragement and support, while ensuring your safety and well-being. Their enthusiasm is infectious, creating an atmosphere where everyone feels empowered to strive for their best. The community spirit in Barbelle is truly remarkable. Ellen and Amy-Lou foster an environment where clients support and uplift one another. The group sessions provide a sense of camaraderie and friendship, creating a positive and motivating atmosphere. There is a genuine sense of belonging, as everyone comes together to celebrate each other's victories, big or small. The good vibes and positive energy among the groups make it a pleasure to train here.
Thank you Caroline for this absolutely beautiful articulation of our service here at Barbelle. This will be a framer for sure! :-) I'm thrilled that our mission and vision for Barbelle is being felt on the gym floor. We can only do this with the trust and open-mindedness of our members so keep up the good work! We are delighted to have you as part of our community. <3
Fantastic experience: Great selection of classes to suit all levels of fitness
Thank you for the glowing review! <3
Fantastic experience: Unreal workout in 30 minutes doing Cycelle spinning class. Ellen the instructor is extremely attentive and friendly. Would highly recommend
Thank you so much Suzie for the kind words - looking forward to seeing you back again soon!
Fantastic experience: I can’t believe I’ve been a member almost 2 years at BarbELLE! I was so hesitant at the start, but I’ve never been to a more supportive and inclusive gym. I look forward to having a laugh during each session and I never get the urge to compete or compare myself to other members. The culture and atmosphere that Ellen has cultivated is so warm and friendly and ground breaking. She cuts through the nonsense , no fads, no extreme diets. She’s a breathe of fresh air in a really stifling industry!
Thank you so much for the glowing review Caoimhe <3 We are THRILLED that you chose us. :-D
Fantastic experience: Hands down the best gym I've ever been a member of! Ellen is such a lovely human being and her positivity and energy is infectious. Ellen advocates for mental health as well and physical health which is something many other trainers and gyms seem to lack. There is no on size fits all at BarbELLE Health, Ellen will explain not only how to do something but the why too and will adapt the exercises to each individual depending on their abilities. As well as the classes , BarbELLE offer regular one on one sessions to discuss nutrition and goals. I honestly can't recommend BarbELLE Health highly enough!
Thank you for your fabulously kind words. What a treat to wake up to this! Definitely made my 05:30am start easier! We are delighted to have you as part of our squad & I'd like to personally commend you for sticking with us after your year. ❤️
Fantastic experience: Best thing I ever did was join Ellen's classes. She has such a positive and helpful approach in her classes and makes everyone feel so comfortable. There is no competition with each other its all at our own pace which is brilliant. She's brilliant with nervous clients and explains everything so well. You won't find better x
Such lovely words!! Thank you Mary ☺️
Fantastic experience: This is no ordinary gym! Ellen makes fitness accessible for all, and her refreshing approach to health and wellbeing makes Barbelle Health a very special place to be a part of. Having gone from "I'm not a gym" person to looking forward to every single session I the space of a few weeks, I can safely say I've been converted and am so glad that I joined - I know I'll see the benefits of prioritising my health and wellness in a positive fitness environment for the rest of my life. Thanks Ellen for everything you do!
Absolutely delighted to have you as a member Caroline!! I hope this review still stands post Lip Sync Battle
Fantastic experience: Great gym with small focused classes along with nutritional advice. Definitely not a 'one size fits all' approach which is a breath of fresh air. I highly recommend Barbelle Health for all ages, sizes and genders.
Thank you for the lovely review Betty ... And your amazing presence, energy & attitude in our classes
Fantastic experience: Best decision I made joining Barbelle over two years ago - always good for the soul and the body of course !!
Fantastic experience: I have been with Ellen since her gym opened last year and train in a fun, friendly environment. Ellen's encouragement and advice in a semi personal training setting along with lovely members makes working out an enjoyable experience and I actually look forward to my classes. I would have no hesitation in recommending Barbelle Health and wish Ellen continued success for 2022.
Thank you for the kind words Elaine! We also love having you in our classes. Delighted to see you making progress towards your goals and enjoying the journey too. Keep up the great work.
Fantastic experience: Ellen’s approach to fitness is infectious, she fully acknowledges and understands that everyone has their own individual reason for attending classes and knows that a one size fits all approach is not practical for the normal everyday gym goer. Barbelle classes are set up to challenge everyone regardless of your goals. I would highly recommend Barbelle Health if you are looking to either start off as a first time gym goer or if you are looking to increase your strength and fitness levels.
Thank you for the kind words Amy! We really appreciate it.
