This is FIT
Meet the FITTHIS team
We think the first month decides everything: whether you come back, whether you feel at home, whether training becomes something you do or something you meant to do. So every new membership starts with This Is Fit: three one-to-one sessions with a personal trainer in your first four weeks, included in your membership.
Nobody arrives knowing everything
Because the hardest part of joining a gym isn’t the training. It’s the first few weeks of not quite knowing what you’re doing. Nobody arrives knowing everything, and we’d rather teach you than leave you to guess.
Your trainer gets to know what you’re actually here for, writes your programme and walks you through it properly, so you know what you’re doing rather than having to figure it out alone.
Session 1
01 · 30 min
A proper chat, some measurements and simple testing so we know your starting point rather than guessing it.
Session 2
02 · 55 min
Your trainer writes your programme and walks you through the exercises properly, standing next to you.
Session 3
03 · 55 min
Leave with a goal, a plan and no reason to hover by a machine wondering how it works.
A lovely independent gym with a community feel - very welcoming, and the 1:1 sessions for new members are fantastic.

signing up was very easy, very welcoming staff and getting the initial PT sessions really helped with the anxiety of going back to the gym after many years.

I was made to feel welcomed and the free PT sessions they offer really help you build confidence if you're not used to using the machines.

Frequently asked
This Is Fit (TIF) is the bigger idea behind the gym. It's the belief that fitness is for everyone in Hackney, not just the people already in the room. Real bodies, real lives, real progress, no pretence.
Yes. The three personal training sessions come with every new membership at no extra cost. There is no tier to upgrade, no hidden charge and no "intro pack" to buy. If you are new, you get them.
You will usually have your first session within a week or two of joining. The team books you in at reception once your membership is set up and works around your schedule.
If you'd like to work with a specific trainer, tell us when you sign up. Otherwise we'll match you with whoever has the right specialism for your goals and good availability.
Personal training stays available to all members at any time. The free three-session block is for new joiners, but you can book individual PT sessions whenever you want a check-in or a programme refresh.
