I've now completed six sessions with Drew through Motive8. Drew is a truly exceptional coach whose methods are grounded in solid science - it's impressive how deeply he has researched the science of body transformation.

I came into my PT sessions looking for a personalised approach and motivation to push myself.

I'm yet to meet a coach that personalises his approach as much as Drew. Before meeting me, he took the time to reflect on all the pre-information I had shared. Then, in our first session, he worked with me to come up with a gameplan to hit my specific goals. Since then, every session has been customised to me, for example he’s adapted the sessions and regime to: 1. my preferences on which muscles to target 2. the training I do outside of our sessions and how recovery has gone 3. how well I respond to different coaching techniques during our sessions. You can tell Drew comes to each session excited to make it the best one yet.

On motivation and accountability, Drew brings a multi pronged approach. During the sessions he's laser focused, encouraging and making sure each session counts. He then blends traditional PT encouragement, with really helpful science based advice on how to make the most of my time both in and out of the gym.

What makes Drew different is he genuinely loves to coach, this is much more than a job for him and it really shines through in every session. If someone like me, who hadn't enjoyed the gym before, can become a convert, anyone can.

Have been attending weekly group classes with Joe in the gym of my building for a while now and very much enjoying it. Joe is a great teacher who tries to make each class a bit different and along with the feel-good aspect, I can also feel the benefits on my body.

I have been joining the yoga and pilates class for several weeks at Sienna House. Reshma, the tutor is doing great, teaching the class professionally and patiently. I am new to both yoga and pilates, some poses are quite difficult for me. Reshma always remind us to listen to our body and provide difficulty options for us during the class. I love the mindfulness part the most!

Reshma Gupta teaches me Yoga and Pilates classes since September 2024. She is very disciplined, punctual and always comes to class on time. She is a fantastic instructor. Her directions are clear and precise, and she’s very observant, constantly checking your positioning. Her classes are truly for all levels, if you attend regularly it is more of a course moving though different focuses which I love, adding new techniques every week to get more from each pose as you progress. Reshma helped me improve my strength, endurance, and confidence. Although you feel very tired for the day, you’ll somehow come out relaxed after the classes. I am now consider these two classes as essential parts of my week. Reshma is a great instructor, will recommend her to anyone.

I’ve been training with Junior White for a few months, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Even though I started with zero experience, he has been incredibly patient and dedicated, guiding me every step of the way. His attention to detail and personalized approach have not only transformed my physique but also had a positive impact on my mindset. I’ve gained more confidence and motivation thanks to his support. Highly recommended!

Amazing experience!

I've got motive8 managing the gym at my building and it's always in a great condition.

I've also purchased a PT package from them and my experience so far is excellent. The trainer, Ray, is very knowledgeable (honestly, how many abs exercises are there?!) and structures training sessions that hit the perfect balance of being challenging enough, but not insanely difficult. I am new to fitness, so it's been great to have him by my side, giving me advice and pushing me outside my comfort zone. My package is now over, but I definitely want to continue working with him this year.

They provided me with a very thoughtful induction for the private gym in my building. The instructor was excellent and knowledgeable.

Did some training sessions with Reinaldo. He’s a really great trainer - knowledgable, supportive and professional in his approach. I got a great start on my fitness journey - thanks Reinaldo!

**Sign up process**

I contacted Motive8 to inquire about personal training, as the gym in my apartment building is operated by them. The sign-up form was quite detailed, asking about my fitness goals and preferences. The next day, I received a call from Filip, who explained all the available training plans in detail. After our 30-minute conversation, I had to choose between a few introductory plans. I selected one, paid the fee, and was assigned a personal trainer.

**Training**

Motive8 assigned Radost Gospodinova as my personal trainer. She discussed my preferences for training times and goals, and we then set the training dates. She was always punctual and easy to reach before or after our sessions. Radost is a very patient trainer who focuses on building a strong foundation. She helped me with essential exercises, teaching me proper form for using equipment, encouraging me to push myself harder in each set and repetition, and motivating me to be more consistent in the gym. She would send me a list of exercises with detailed instructions on WhatsApp so I could continue my training at the gym when I am not training with her.

Overall, I enjoyed the training provided by Radost and the services offered by the Motive8 team.

One area where Motive8 could improve is the pricing for their personal training.

I’ve been training with Samantha for a few months now - couldn’t recommend her more! She’s been great at creating tailored weekly plans for me and motivating me to stay on track, whilst also educating me on the best way to achieve my goals. She’s also a warm and bubbly individual which makes my sessions even more enjoyable!

I have been attending PT lessons delivered by Junior since May 2024, and I can confidently say the classes are worth every penny. Junior is an amazing trainer—extremely knowledgeable and always motivating me to challenge myself. He tailors each lesson to my physical and mental condition and has also designed a self-training plan to maintain my progress.

Before attending the lessons, I thought I could handle weight training on my own, but Junior has made a significant difference. With his guidance, I am able to maximise the impact of every training set and properly activate the right muscles. I highly recommend anyone who wishes to improve their physical wellbeing or muscle strength to join the PT programme.

I really enjoy the weekly yoga classes at Thames quarter gym. Such a relaxing thing to do after a tiring workday. Specially Ioana is super good and so professional. Wish these classes were offered more times a week. Thanks Ioana for the super relaxing sessions!!

I hightly recommend Motive8 personal trainers. Both me and my wife had a great experience signing up and having our consultation call. Junior White, our PT, created a tailored training set for our needs and goals and we are loving the results so far.

My experience of yoga has been amazing and all the credit goes to Loana. She make it's look effortless and sets an encouraging environment.

The gym induction session by the motive8 Team representative was excellent. The instructor was courteous, patient and professional.

I had the pleasure of working with Joe Sansum as my fitness coach, and I can't recommend him highly enough. From the moment we started, it was clear that his passion for fitness and commitment to helping others achieve their goals was unmatched.

One of the things that impressed me most about Joe was his personalized approach to training. He took the time to understand my specific fitness goals, as well as any limitations or challenges I faced, and developed a customized workout plan that was both challenging and achievable. He pushed me to my limits while always ensuring proper form and safety.

What truly sets Joe apart is not just his expertise, but also his friendly demeanor. From our very first session, he made me feel welcomed and comfortable, creating a positive and supportive environment that motivated me to give my all.

Not only did I see significant improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall fitness level, but I also gained confidence in myself and my abilities. Joe's friendly and approachable nature, combined with his expertise, make him an exceptional personal trainer who genuinely cares about your success. If you're looking for someone who will not only challenge you but also support you every step of the way, Joe is the perfect choice!

Training with Issac. Excellent pt who offers varied and challenging sessions which keep pushing me. A great communicator who has fresh ideas. It’s early days but looking forward to tangible results!

The induction was very informative and helpful. I decided to try PT with motive8 as well and have been really happy with Filip’s professionalism and his dedication to a challenging training that fits my hectic schedule. I’ve learned a lot about how to safely train in my new gym and the PT sessions have left me feeling stronger and more empowered, positively impacting all areas of my life. Highly recommend motive8 and Filip’s PT for your fitness goals!

My partner and I joined the weekly yoga classes at Sienna House a few months ago.

We were new to the neighborhood and would like to expand our social circle, meet some friends there. While we were at the yoga class, the tutor questioned us a few times if we can understand English, and if we cannot understand the classes, we will be banned from joining the classes. We worked hard, and paid attention, but the tutor was very rude and she did not welcome us to the class just because we were not proficient in English.

We were slightly aggrieved with the experience, and we heard from our neighbors that she handpicked residents that she favors to stay in the class. Well thank you, that all makes sense now.

Amazing 1:1 training experience with Junior White - he is honestly the best trainer I have come across - he knows his work inside out. He knows the importance of understanding his client's psychology and is a great motivator. I have seen my physical health and emotional well-being improve since starting 1:1 sessions with Junior. He has helped me build strength and has supported me tremendously in realising what I can achieve in the gym. Highly recommend Junior as a trainer. I would also like to give a shoutout to Filip who was a pleasure to speak to when I called motive8 to find out about personal training - he listened and truly understood my bespoke needs and was very kind and encouraging. Thank you Filip and thank you Junior, I never thought I would enjoy working out!
