Unity Gym

I recently completed a 6 week strength program and cannot praise the gym and its instructors enough. A long list of previous injuries meant I have been apprehensive about increasing the intensity of my training over the last few years and I found myself making very little to no progress.I have used gyms on and off for the best part of 10 years I thought I had a relatively good standard of knowledge. However, the guys at Unity really focus on the details, from your breathing, to technique, offering an extremely welcoming and encouraging training environment.Despite only training for 6 weeks, I completed the program feeling noticeably stronger with much more confidence in my body. I have started playing rugby again competitively for the first time in six years and cannot wait to see how I can progress in the coming months.I would personally like to thank Keith for his efforts and encouraging me to sign onto the program, and the other instructors Leon and Wayne for their guidance and support throughout! I thoroughly enjoyed it.Thanks again.

As a more mature person I was apprehensive walking into Unity gym- however what I found was a supportive encouraging environment. The coaches are knowledgeable ensuring good safe technique, well structured sessions tailored to individual needs, ensuring progression. I have loved every minute. As my strength and stamina has improved the impact on my general health and fitness has benefited my other day to day activities. I can't recommend this gym or the coaches enough.

I have tried a few gym type classes over the years but none as good as Unity. I had been wanting to give weightlifting a go for a while, but struggled to find a flexible gym that offered this type of coaching for beginners.The small group sessions ensure you get loads of feedback on movements, in fact not far from a PT session. However, you have the added benefits of being surrounded by a really lovely team of people that are all so supportive of each other.The coaches are great at pushing you as well as putting in effort to create a community within the gym. They are really knowledgeable and give you lots of advice, including setting you mobility exercises to do at home and organising group yoga sessions. I look forward to seeing my progression on the app (BoxMate) as well as feeling much fitter. I would recommend this gym to everyone ☺️

I have only been training at unity gym for one month and I have already improved substantially. When I started i wasn't able to do even one ring muscle up, and I have just completed 20 full ring muscle ups in 10 minutes yesterday.The atmosphere is very inviting in the gym and the way the coaches explain things makes it very easy to learn fast. They break down more technical moves like the snatch in a way that makes it very easy to pick up, my understanding of how to move properly with barbell movements has improved dramatically in one month.The coaches are very attentive and work with you thoroughly to ensure you are moving correctly and getting the most out of the sessions you possibly can.I would 100% recommend unity gym, whether you are a seasoned athlete or just someone looking to get into better shape.

Small classes with a lot of equipment and really supportive experienced coaches. Equally supportive and welcoming for people who are experienced and total beginners. Great place to get fit, make friends and join a great community.

Very friendly place, good range of equipment, not too busy, coaches are good for checking form and teaching you how to do exercises properly. Would recommend to anyone new to CrossFit

I moved to Newcastle from Kenya for my postgraduate study and having never done CrossFit in my life, I was apprehensive at the beginning. However, I soon got more comfortable with the movements after a detailed OnRamp training. The coaches are out of this world! They are not only friendly, but also take you at a pace that is suited for you individually to ensure progressive growth. Everyone else in the gym is very friendly and supportive. Unity Gym is not just a gym, it is a community where you get a sense of belonging. I would definitely recommend Unity Gym to anyone and everyone!

Joined Unity Gym in January 2023 after getting into CrossFit style workouts in 2020. I had tried another CrossFit gym in 2022 and didn't enjoy it very much. The experience at Unity has been absolutely different class. I love the class sizes (maximum 8), which means you get really detailed and bespoke coaching as you perform your lifts and workouts. The coaches focus on technique first and only build weight or intensity as your technique progresses, which is exactly what I wanted as a soon to be 40 year old man who's had lots of football injuries over the years! Facilities are spot on as well. And finally the members are some of the friendliest people I've met at gyms or sports clubs. Cannot recommend it more!

Honestly could not praise Unity Gym enough. Firstly, you are welcomed and feel part of the community as everyone is friendly and very inclusive.The quality of training is awesome, the focus is on technique at all times, then only you can progress to more weight. All abilities and strengths are celebrated, you are certainly challenged not only physically but also mentally.Training compromises of a variety of programs which address technique, cardio, strength, flexibility and mental resilience. Outside of the normal classes there is a great sense of community and friendship where different events are organised for everyone to try something different, such as cold water swimming, hiking, trail running and insane endurance events.Really happy to be part of such a fab community.

Unity is phenomenal. I've been Crossfitting for over a decade. Because I've moved quite a bit in that time, I've been a member at many gyms. Unity is among the best of them. Leon and Keith have created a welcoming and warm community. Their coaching is first rate - they are demanding, but also attentive, patient, and encouraging - and the programming is fantastic. What the gym lacks in size - it is a small space - it more than makes up for in quality and charm.
