Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member in Portmarnock for over a year and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. The members and the trainers are incredibly friendly and supportive. I feel comfortable and motivated every group session. I’ve learned so much about fitness and proper techniques. The workouts are customised with balance; they can be challenging especially when doing sets of workouts for the first time. Nonetheless, I received lots of tips and having amazing coach makes real difference. They care about progress and pushes to keep improving. I’ve seen noticeable progress in my endurance. Thank you Excape for the great experience and amazing community. I highly recommend Excape!!

I have been a member of a few gyms over the years and this is the best one by far... if you're interested in a gym that gets you results and has a great atmosphere then look no further. The training sessions are varied and can be scaled to suit your experience and fitness levels. Can't recommend it enough!!

Fantastic experience: I am a member of EXCAPE Portmarnock 7 months now and it's the best thing I have done this year! The coaches are the best around and give everyone encouragement and support. I'm now signed up for my first Hyrox in Dublin in November and there is no way I would have done it without Excape and the community. Would highly recommend this gym to anyone thinking of joining.

I really like the format of the classes (45 min each), with consistent programs week over week, suitable for all levels and master level coaches who give attention to each student. Highly recommended. I joined Excape one year ago and plan to continue.

Fantastic experience: For approximately six months now, the EXCAPE team has been an invaluable source of support. Their exceptional kindness, expertise, and assistance have made a remarkable difference. After neglecting my well-being for years, I've seen significant progress towards my goals, thanks to their guidance in setting them. Despite struggling to stick to a gym routine in the past, EXCAPE has provided me with a truly enjoyable way to train. I highly recommend EXCAPE to anyone, regardless of their age or fitness level.

Fantastic experience: I turned 60 last year and suffer badly with arthritis in my knees. I have been a member for almost a year now and having never stepped foot inside a gym before. I joined EXCAPE and haven’t looked back since. The coaches are great and extremely helpful and tailor everything to the individual. My knees are nowhere near as bad and I’m stronger and fitter than ever! It doesn’t matter if you’re a complete beginner and never stepped foot into the gym or have been training for years. The small group PT sessions are great to get in before, during or after work! There is plenty of parking at the gym and the members are all great and really encouraging environment to motivate and push you on in your training. Would highly recommend EXCAPE to anyone that is on the fence about starting their health and fitness journey. I’ve gotten results that I couldn’t have ever imagined since joining!

Fantastic experience: I have been going to excape Portmarnock since it opened. The trainers are always engaged and able to tailor every session to each person's abilities/needs while striving to push you to achieve your potential. The equipment is of high standard and the gym is kept impeccable, all of this combined makes training at excape a enjoyable and inclusive environment. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Excape, the service provided is personalised and professional. Not to mention its a fantastic community to be a part of!

Fantastic experience: 3 weeks in so far, I'm feeling great and James has been a great trainer. I can't wait to continue my journey.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I both love Excape! I was super hesitant at first as these gyms can be daunting; however, I can't say enough how comfortable I am and how much confidence I've gained since joining!

Fantastic experience: Excellent trainers, they really know their stuff, always advising right especially with an injury they will tel you what's good and what's not good for you to do , the gym does be so clean too,

Fantastic experience: Everything about Excape is great - the gym facilities, the people, and the knowledge that the personal trainers have. Having had a back injury a few years ago, I was always nervous in gyms incase I was doing something wrong - this doesn't happen at Excape. The personal trainers are highly experienced and also spend the time to ensure each person in the class has correct form, and are doing the workouts to the best of their ability. I'd recommend Excape to everyone - no matter what age you are or what fitness level you are at!

Fantastic experience: I am a member of Excape for almost a year now and is one of the best decisions I have made..staff..coaches and people are top class..the training is an excellent blend of S&C and cardio..and something for all ages..no egos or mirrors allowed in this Gym...do yourself a favour and give it a go..

Fantastic experience: Excape have created an amazing community across the three different gyms and I have thoroughly enjoyed tagging along to all of the excellent events they have organised, from hiking in Howth to Hyrox in Madrid!

Fantastic experience: Don't over think trying out Excape gym. It will be the best decision you ever make! All the coaches are at the top of their game & are so welcoming, kind & helpful. You will be pushed just enough to keep getting better & stronger than you ever thought possible! Mentally & physically I've never felt better & it's only been 6 months since I joined. Make contact with Excape & you'll never regret it. Thanks to all the Excape team for your dedication & hard work but most of all your enthusiasm for what you do

Fantastic experience: Excape Portmarnock is a fantastic gym and space to train. Workout programs are always varied and suited towards your goals, with the smaller classes ensuring there is a great community feel but you get the personal attention you need. Definitely try their trial, you won't be disappointed!

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend EXCAPE Portmarnock enough. The coaches are so knowledgeable professional and helpful . This is a gym for everyone no matter your ability age or strength. Coming back to the gym after having two babies was a challenge and they helped me every step of the way - Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: What stands out most about Excape is the strong sense of community. The gym feels like a supportive family, with all coaches actively engaged in helping clients succeed. It wasn't just about fitness; it was a holistic approach to well-being. The camaraderie among members and the encouragement from staff make each workout an enjoyable journey. If you're looking for a gym that's more than just a place to exercise – a place where the entire community rallies behind your fitness goals – this is it.

Fantastic experience: A great space in a lovely location! The team are so friendly, encouraging and professional too!! ☺️

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym, with super equipment. The coaches are great and extremely helpful and encouraging with you during every session. The small group PT sessions are perfect lengths to either get in a session in the morning before work or squeeze one in on an evening either. There is plenty of parking at the gym and the members are all great too. Would highly recommend Excape Portmarnock!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Excape for almost 2 years and love it! Having tried many gyms over the years, the team and set up here cannot be beaten. The standard of coaching and support they provide is excellent and every session is always enjoyable!

Fantastic experience: From the very first day I joined to the present, Everyone (yes everyone not just the Coaches) is with you every step of the way, mentoring, explaining, getting to know you, pushing you, taking you out of your comfort zone, as the Coaches know what you are capable of doing, I would never expected when I joined how far I have come, from doing Runamuck and then Hyrox, which if you had said to me when I joined I would do this, I would have said no chance, but that is down to the Coaches and the Excape Community, believing and having confidence in your ability and I would not change that, amazing place and here is to many more challenges to come

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, as there small classes it's personal and makes you accountable. Everyone is so friendly!

Fantastic experience: It’s a fabulous resort . I’m delighted with it

Fantastic experience: I have been training at EXCAPE for the last 5 months! After playing competitive sport for the best part of 20 years I was at an 'in between' stage and looking to get strong again in an enjoyable and challenging environment. The small group classes are really personal and cater for any ability. There's plenty of variety in the weekly sessions while also ensuring a nice level of consistency for you to reach your goal. The coaches are all very knowledgeable and can adapt to any level. Would strongly recommend to anyone looking to improve strength and overall fitness.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend EXCAPE portmarnock, i started training a few months ago and I’m really enjoying the small group training the trainers are great and make sure your doing each exercise correctly.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Excape studio in Portmarnock for over 9 months. It is a joy to use - the team have created a supportive and fun environment with every coach paying full attention to you and your training needs. The classes are all different and challenges. The coaches are experts in their fields and very approachable. I understand, more than ever, how to adapt certain exercises to suits my needs.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy the exercises and the structure. The Excape team is always all in, providing right guidance and motivation. I fully endorse and recommend Excape for anyone looking for all around workout regimen.

Fantastic experience: I have been training the last 10 months in the small group training sessions @ 6:45am under the watchful eye of a dedicated team of trainers from Excape and along with a great group of people all set to achieve their goals of either increased fitness , weight loss or just adjusting our lifestyle to include proper exercise and fun. What's good for me has been the fact that you have a trainer from start to finish of each session pushing you and most importantly encouraging you to achieve. This is what makes Excape different to any other gym I have been to, even down to the after session communications with your trainer to help you along the way. But the best part has to be the camaraderie developed among the group and just the "craic" along the way. In my 10 months of training I have seen the physical change to myself and mental improvements I get from exercise. If you are looking to join a gym , check out Excape and experience it yourself. Its hard to sometimes to achieve your goal without a little help along the way , so let EXCAPE help you achieve your goals. It's easier with Team EXCAPE.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Excape Portmarnock! The team is friendly and knowledgeable, and the small group training is a great way to get a good workout in with guidance from trainers. The class structure is good for all levels of experience, and we can complete a great workout in just 45 minutes with sufficient equipment readily available and the trainers pushing us along.

Fantastic experience: I have never been a morning person or managed to continuosly commit to a gym until I started training with Excape Coaches. They are professionals that will make sure you are doing the exercises the right way, will push you just the right amount, will always meet you with a happy welcome and you will always feel like you are with friends and family when you are training in Excape Studios. I love that there is no self consciousness when you are training with them, everybody I met training there was beyond friendly and that makes me want to go there every time despite knowing that it will be hard work each time. The coaches genuinely care about the people, they organize events outside the gym as well like hikes, bowling nights which I think are always fun to attend and great opportunity to get to know other people better. They also added Hyrox to the activities if you like a bit of challenge. If you want to feel better and socialise in an environment which always feels friendly you should definitely be part of an Excape Studio:)

Fantastic experience: A fun, friendly and safe environment. Have been an Excape Clontarf member since Spring 2022 and moved to Excape Portmarnock once their studio opened in Summer 2023. Have met some fantastic people along the way. A genuinely lovely and supportive community feel amongst fellow “Excapers” in Small Group & Fitness sessions (with some craic and laughs along the way). Sessions always happen under the expert watch of Coaches who are the ultimate professionals and so giving of their time, insights and guidance. The Coaching team of Graham, Conor, Becca, James and Andy are “simply the best” and take a genuine interest in each individuals personal goals and make sure that safety and correct methods are followed to avoid injury. I’ve never been part of a gym before and my fitness levels were poor. Over the last 24 months, I’ve gone from strength to strength and seen results in my fitness levels that I never thought was possible.

Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend the team at Excape enough. They’ve created a super friendly environment where you instantly feel comfortable while always encouraging you to push yourself. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Couple of months ago, I became a member of Excape without any prior experience. I had previously held the belief that such an environment was not suited to my preference, I am a lazy person by nature and never enjoyed gyms. However, my perception has dramatically shifted due to exceptional small group training sessions and the remarkably amicable coaches at Excape. I have found great enjoyment in my experience at Excape. Their genuine kindness extend to all members, which, in turn, makes the early 6 am visits considerably more manageable for me. I want to extend my sincere gratitude to all coaches. I still can't believe I am attending sessions at 6 am twice a week for months now!

Fantastic experience: I joined Excape this summer and am really enjoying it. The small group format means there is literally no escape from training, the coaches are great and you get to know others in the class as we tend to go to the same classes throughout the week. I'd recommend it as an easy stress free way of getting fit

Fantastic experience: EXCAPE is a brand new Gym with all brand new kit / Super easy sign up and booking system. The Trainers are super, like all of them, really knowledgeable and super friendly and can adapt any part of the class to suit any ability types. Theres max about 6 people in the classes which means that each individual gets the attention they need and ancouragnas eveyone is performing to the best of their ability Never been to Gym or PT before - I now love it. The Benifit’s are huge, from feeling fitter, stronger, sleeping better and feeling great. It's the most productive use of 45 minutes possible. Highly highly highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I started off in Excape Clontarf in 2021 and then moved to Excape Portmarnock this year- this is the longest I’ve ever stuck to a gym! It’s all down to the brilliant staff, supportive and friendly environment and the motivation they give you to keep coming back! I genuinely enjoy my sessions and I’m very grateful to have found Excape!

Fantastic experience: I have been using EXCAPE in Portmarnock now for the last 3 months I find it great as I had very little experience in what to do in the gym beforehand and never got the results I was hoping for after a short time with EXCAPE I am seeing much better results as they talk you through everything step by step and they mix it up every session which I like , also the staff are all very helpful and very friendly. Thanks to the team

Fantastic experience: Started in June this year, and have been so happy with my experience with EXCAPE Portmarnock thus far! It’s my first time doing sessions like these, and I’d be happy to recommend them to anyone - such great individual attention, conveniently located, excellent facilities and it honestly feels like a little community. Training made fun

Fantastic experience: I have always been someone who is very active and put an emphasis on sport and training; historically I have been hesitant to sign up to small PT sessions due to the cost associated with them, but I have had such a positive experience so far. Excape is a great place to train and the team are brilliant. All the trainers are very friendly, and have a very personable and tailored approach to your goals. There’s a great comradery in the gym amongst all the members and I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a fitness solution. All you need to do is get yourself there for the session, and they do the rest. A great way to start the day!

Fantastic experience: Try yourself and you will be addictive :) I’ve joined Excape in July 2023 with no gym background/experience. I always believed it was not for me. But with the small group training and extremely friendly trainers, I’m enjoying Excape a lot. Their friendliness and kindness spread to all members so going there at 6 am becomes easier. Never doubted their knowledge, they always listen and tailor something more suitable for individuals capability and needs. Special thanks to James, Andy, Conor, Rebecca, Greham and the rest of the crew. Keep up the good work.

Fantastic experience: Love it! Each coach is a total expert in their field and I always come away from each class feeling like I got a great workout. Couldn’t imagine going back to a regular gym since joining EXCAPE- no comparison.

Fantastic experience: I am a total EXCAPE advocate. I started training on this studio since it’s opening in June 2023 and in 4 months I have managed to get fitter, stronger and energised and I am so looking forward to continue my training with them, there is a bunch of things I love from this training but just to name a few: 1) We only need to have 45 min available per session (Warm up, Block A and B with 6 exercises and you are out of the door) and the groups are small (6 peeps max at time) 2) There is no previous training/fitness experience required and the coaches look after you and your own needs/goals. 3)It’s not a conventional gym with mirrors everywhere or people hanging around which makes the whole experience way more confortable for those like me who started from a 0 level Honestly, don’t give it a second thought if you want to get fitter, stronger and happier, the EXCAPE Portmarnock studio is your place!

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of Excape for over 3 years now. Having never been a gym member before joining Excape I have over 450 classes completed with them now. Their classes are excellent (SGPT and Hyrox) and all their coaches are the best at what they do. I'd highly recommend anyone in Portmarnock, Malahide and surrounding areas to give them a try. You won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: I've been a training in EXCAPE Leixlip since they opened their doors in 2018 and I cannot recommend them enough. If you are living in the area check out the 28 day trial. Whether its your first time stepping foot in a gym or you have been training for years. The team at Excape will have the skills and experience to support you in a fun community driven environment. They have a variety of strength and conditioning programming that is specifically tailored to each clients needs or goals and regularly change things up so training never gets boring.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with EXCAPE Clontarf for the last 4 months. I love the classes, there is such a good community, the coaches are so knowledgeable and really know how to push you and take you at whatever level you are at! I would absolutely recommend to anyone in the area to do the 28 day trial!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love the coaches, the structure and the community spirit in the EXCAPE gym in Portmarnock. I cannot recommend it highly. I really enjoy the content and the direction. I am delighted with my progress. My strength, fitness and overall wellness have improved so much. Thank you EXCAPE

Fantastic experience: I have been training in Excape since 2019 and I would highly recommend anyone living in the area to get in touch and avail of the 28 day trial. I have had some quite serious health issues over the last 4 years and the team of coaches at Excape have always been at hand to guide me through the sessions on my return. Without Excape I don't think I would have got through those tough times. They kept my level of fitness up at all times, which definitely helped during the tough times. You will definitely not regret joining Excape.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member in EXCAPE Leixlip for 18 months and I would highly recommend anyone who is living in the area to get in touch with the guys and try out the 28 day trial. I’ve had a lot of injury problems over the years and the flexible and guided approach to training has allowed me to be the fittest I’ve ever been! The coaches are incredibly friendly and relatable, it’s just a great gym
