More than just a gym

A supportive fitness community built for you.

We know that walking into a gym can feel intimidating, especially if you're returning to exercise or aren't sure where to start.

That's why we've built Reform Fitness around expert coaching, a clear plan and a genuinely welcoming community. Every session is coached, so you're never left wondering what to do or whether you're doing it right.

You'll get the individual attention you need, alongside the encouragement and energy of training with a small group of great people.

Expert coaching, every session

Personal attention, proper guidance and training that's suited to your ability.

A clear plan, without the guesswork

Structured training that helps you build strength, confidence and lasting progress.

People who make you feel welcome

A friendly, supportive community where everyone is working towards their own goals.

Our story

From a garage to something bigger.

Reform Fitness began in 2013 with a simple idea: personal training should be about more than just exercise. It should give people the confidence, knowledge and support to make lasting changes.

What started with coaching in a garage grew through word of mouth, hard work and a belief that great coaching could make a real difference to people's lives.

Today, we're based in our dedicated facility in Roundswell, Barnstaple. We've grown in size, but our approach hasn't changed: personal attention, a supportive atmosphere and helping every member make progress at their own pace.

2013 Where it all began. One garage, a passion for coaching and the start of what would become Reform Fitness.

Built around people. Driven by coaching.

More than the sessions

A community that goes beyond training.

The best part of Reform Fitness is the people. From encouraging each other through a tough session to getting together outside the gym, our community is what makes this place special.
