⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Since relocating to the United Kingdom in 2021, I have been actively seeking a reputable Muay Thai and boxing gym. After trying various establishments, I can confidently state that FCG stands out due to its exceptional cleanliness and adherence to my specific requirements. Upon entering the gym, the front desk attendant, despite forgetting his name, greeted me warmly and provided me with the necessary directions to the ladies’ changing room. Notably, he extended an invitation to accompany me and ensured that I had everything I needed. Furthermore, he introduced me to Coach Leon Jason, who guided me through my first sparring session. He patiently explained the techniques and demonstrated them to other members, acknowledging my initial experience. I am deeply grateful to FCG for providing me with a welcoming and supportive environment. The staff’s warmth and hospitality have made me feel at home. I intend to return to the gym in the near future. Additionally, I extend my sincere appreciation to Coach Leon Jason for his exceptional guidance and patience during my sparring session.

I went around my area looking for a martial arts gym and everything about FCG was perfect, from the staff to the equipment and the space itself. I was greeted by the lovely Marwa when I first joined and she made my experience that much better, explained everything thoroughly and made me feel very welcomed and part of the gym. She was very attentive to my fitness goals and sold me on this gym in particular to others. Customer service skills 10/10.
