Fantastic experience: As a working Mom of 2 under 4, I really found the flexibility of these class times and the convenience of managing and cancelling classes on the app so handy. You can make it fit into a busy schedule. Classes are great , well structured and tailored for your own ability. I definitely feel stronger in myself so far after being a member for 5 months. I would highly recommend

ian Carey 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Having only joined Guerilla fitness only three months ago I’m really seeing the benefits already. The gym never featured in my life and guerilla fitness has become part of my weekly fitness regimen. To be honest I couldn’t be happier. There’s a great structure and everything is explained in great detail. Great coaches and very professional.

Guerilla Fitness

Thank you for your kind words Ian.
Keep up the good work

Jane Connolly 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I had never done a work out in a gym before, was the heaviest in weight and the most unfit I had ever been. I was fed up and worried about the effect it would have on my health heading into middle age. I saw a promo clip on facebook and sent a message, immediately afterwards I got a prompt text reply encouraging me to attend a free consultation and before I could think twice I had committed to a chat and assessment with Brendan. I was so nervous and scared at first, I was afraid I would be able to do it or hurt myself, that i would look foolish and embarrass myself, I was not even sure of what to wear ! Brendan was so understanding and encouraging, he suggested that the All in six month programme would suit my needs best and gave me time to consider it before signing up to it. I decided now was the time to commit to prioritising my health and fitness. After a number of 1 to 1 sessions in the gym, where I was shown exactly how to move my body safely and use the equipment correctly I joined into the classes with mixed abilities with a programme tailored to my level of ability and poor fitness. Six months later I can honestly say that I love going to Guerrilla Fitness 3 times a week. The coaches closely supervise and correct my technique and postures when needed and encourage progression. A big bonus has been the positivity and encouragement from all the members who attend and the extra activities and seminars for members are great.. The boost in my energy and self satisfaction after class is still surprising me ! I had driven past it for years wondering what was happening in there and thinking that I could never do it. It has been life changing for me. I am so happy joined up.

Guerilla Fitness

Thank you for such an amazing review Jane.
Keep up the amazing work.

Damien Collier 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Without a doubt, joining Guerilla was probably the best decision I've made for my health, fitness and mind. The coaching is top class and the sense of community spirit on the floor won't be matched anywhere. Looking forward to spending many more years working out here.

Guerilla Fitness

We are looking forward to the coming years too Damien. Thank you for your kind words

Madelyn Hughes 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I joined the Guerilla community just over 3 months ago and it is the highlight of my day and week. I love that the gym is so well kept, well equipped, such a good variety of classes and class times for everyone. The coaches are so positive and encouraging in each session and it’s such a good feeling when you see yourself and everyone else progressing and hitting their goals. I couldn’t recommend Guerilla enough to anyone no matter what your fitness level is at. I am so glad I took the leap and joined and I love being part of the Guerilla team.

Guerilla Fitness

Thank you so much for the kind words

Craig Whyte 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend.I joined Guerrilla Fitness 3 months ago and I'm sorry I didn't join years ago. The coaching and support from the team is extremely professional yet personal and everyone is friendly and welcoming. There is an excellent booking system, the varied class offerings and numerous class times make it so convenient to fit a class in around work/family commitments etc.

Guerilla Fitness

We're so glad you joined us too Craig.
Thank you for your kind review

Aoife Goggin 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Although I am relatively new to the Guerilla community, I cannot speak highly enough of the facility Brendan, Hilary and the coaches have created. It's clean, well equipped and has a vase timetable to suit everyone's schedule. Egos are left at the door as this gym caters for all ages and fitness levels. You will be met with the right balance of fun, encouragement and professionalism. Definitely recommend!

Guerilla Fitness

Thank you for such a lovely review Aoife.

Lisa Galvin 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I joined Guerilla fitness just over 3 months ago, and so far I am enjoying every minute of it. The set up in the gym and the variety of classes is fantastic. I love the fact the team cater for each member individually so it's easy to see progressions. The coaches along with the other members are extremely welcoming, friendly and always encouraging.

Guerilla Fitness

Thank you for such kind words Lisa.

Jennifer Corcoran 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I joined Guerilla back in January after much deliberation!! To say it is the best decision I made in a long time is an understatement. I love everything about it the coaches, the variety of classes, being pushed and encouraged in each class. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. The feeling of progression in each class and the buzz afterwards is an added bonus. It cateres for all ages and abilities. All in all very positive and I'm so glad I took that leap and joined Guerilla.

Thank you for such kind words and trusting us to take the leap back in Janaury

Paul Martin (rawstorage) 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Joined up 3 months ago to do something different. I'm relatively fit but never done any strength and conditioning training to speak off. Wasn't sure if I would enjoy or stick with it. So far my experience has been great loving the classes and the variation is, had a few days where I've been sore next day hit never to the point where I couldn't move. The instructors are great and the vibe of the place is fantastic and friendly people of all walks of life and age ranges. Definitely an inclusive atmosphere and plenty of encouragement from members and coaches to achieve your goals. I'm definitely enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would and am stronger than when I entered the building for the first time seeing great results after few months.

Guerilla Fitness

Thank you for your kinds words Paul

Samuel Boazman 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I can't speak highly enough of Brendan, Hilary, their team and the community they've built at Guerilla Fitness. Whatever your level of fitness is or whatever age you are (or whatever it is that's making you think this is not for you!) you'll be supported here in a highly welcoming and inclusive environment. You may be lifting the heaviest or lightest weights or doing the most or the least repetitions but you'll have the encouragement of the whole class behind you (again, a credit to the atmosphere Brendan and Hilary have created). The team are highly professional, fun and discrete as needed and their attention to detail is exceptional. Whether you want to go large on the weights, work on your aerobic fitness, work towards a marathon, stay conditioned, lift a bag of coal, or spring out of a beanbag, Guerilla Fitness has you covered!

Guerilla Fitness

Wow, thank you for such a lovely and detailed review Sam ❤️

Eimear Geary 1 year ago

Negative experience: Good gym but unfortunately pity about the owner. Could not recommend

Guerilla Fitness

Hi Eimear,

This is an extremely immature response.

We terminated your membership with us after you decided you wanted to go against our coaching philosophy.
Your heavily pregnant we a duty of care to look after all our clients.
As I said in our email thread, if you want to train differently and go against our coaching that's fine. But it won't be with Guerilla unfortunately.

If having your best interests at heart warrants a 1 star review then so be it!!

The unfortunate gym owner

George Livanos 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Brendan and the team have put together a fantastic operation and social space at Guerilla Fitness. I signed up a year ago, after an extended break from training and my fitness has been steadily improving ever since. The facility is spotless, the atmosphere is positive, and the workouts are an excellent mix of skill building + effort. The coaches show a personal interest in the progress of members and their attention to detail during group sessions helps to move you forward safely and with confidence. The environment is welcoming to newcomers, and you'll be surprised how banter + hard work is possible equal measure (even during early morning sessions). The team has organized Social Events such as Hiking, Kayaking & BBQ's - which is the icing on the cake at this place! - Definitely one of the best in my books, and I can strongly recommend Guerilla Fitness. - Well done to Brendan & the Team!

Elina Renerte 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I walked in not really knowing or understanding what I was signing up for. Verdict - by far one of the best gyms I've ever been to. Exercising on my own or in standard gym was always boring for me and I've never lasted more than three months. I'm approaching three year mark. It is not always easy, but satisfaction after each class says it all. I enjoy the variety of exercises, especially well planned sessions that will tackle every part of the body in every way. Weightlifting to intensity, flexibility to mobility, techniques to apply in everydays life and crucial education - worksohps: nutrition, hinging, bracing, running, rowing, and more. Learing to carry out a proper form and technique under coaches supervision. Fitness here is taken seriously. Clients needs and abilities are at the core of every class. Individual approach according to your own abilities. Altered program if any injury present. And gentle motivation to grow and succeed. And place is always clean. Community is at heart too. Bank holidays gatherings, charity workouts, social and fun events, and support during the class allows to feel "at home". Fact that each coach is familiar with each and every client allows them to individually plan and assess as the class goes on. There is always place to grow and push the needle for self. Addicting. My fitness journey haven't been easy. Many failures, many injuries in the past, life circumstances etc. For the first time in my life I take a pride of the achievements I've had here, not just physical transformation, overall wellbeing and mental health. Recommended.

Sinead Connolly 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Been going to guerilla fitness since December 2021 and I’m usually a person to give up on stuff but here, I enjoy the workouts along with getting to know members and coaches! And on top of that, they offer educational seminars so your not just going in, doing a workout and knowing no better, they teach you how it helps in everyday life and what can help/hinder your progress! Best thing I’ve ever signed up for! Would recommend to everyone

Guerilla Fitness

Wow, thank you Sinead for trusting us and sticking with us on your journey .

Hugh O'Keeffe 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great coaches, equipment, fit out and very well run with a broad range of class times to suit your day. Classes accommodate different abilities and experience levels meaning you are always very well motivated; coached at your level and never feel you are holding others back (well most of the time!). Seriously though highly recommended and the physical and mental benefits mean you must at least give it a go.

Guerilla Fitness

Thank you for the kind words Hugh.

Michael “MDunie” O Donovan 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am everyday grateful to have joined Guerilla Fitness. This is no ordinary gym, there is so much support from the coaches and fellow members, every session is always so uplifting. A sense of community at the gym is second to none, no matter our abilities we are all there for the same reasons. The varied excersises all tailor made to individual needs and abilities and the superb, well kept equipment is constantly updated, deep cleaned, organised. There is a feeling of confidence once you walk through the doors. We all know it will be sweaty, sore, fun, exhilarating - but we are in good hands, guided through every move, we get through it and come out stronger, more flexible, more ready for everyday life activities. I personally don't know what would I do without Guerilla Fitness, thank you Bren, Hills and the Team for looking after us so well and making us stronger mentally and physically!

Fantastic experience: True professionals in fitness in the religion of WC. The structured semi private classes of high standard were my attraction. Employing fitness journey has been the hardest thing I've ever had to do! Having a no nonsense coach! working out in team oriented environment whilst getting personal attention and support from coaches is what helped me stick it through.

Fantastic experience: I have trained in many Crossfit gyms over the years and have never seen such a well kept, tidy and organised gym. Brendan and Hilary clearly have very high standards for the service they off, which is also felt in the coaching they offer clients, the detail of which was was second to none. Everyone is treated as an individual and offered a level of care similar to personal training. If you’re anywhere near Clonakilty, these guys are the place to go!
