Diesel Gym Articles

Diesel Gym is fantastic. Friendly, professional team and top-notch instructors make every session a great experience. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to learn BJJ

Lovely group of people definitely suggest signing up

Gym located near the royal albert station. Went there for a 1.5 hours Muay Thai class (all levels). You will be paired up with a person (buddy) in a class. Instructor will demonstrate a technique and you will execute it with your buddy for 3 mins, followed by push ups. This will be repeated for about 35-40mins. After which, you will switch over and you become the pad holder for your buddy. Personally, I am not a fan of such modality as skills level between you and your buddy may be different which could potentially be dangerous. No worries about the hygiene as the gym staff will constantly remind members to keep the shoes off the mat. Kudos to the enforcement. Gym has toilet and locker room with showering facilities but there are no lockers provided.

Great gym with fantastic coaches, perfect for learning any of the martial arts they offer, very accommodating to new fighters and experienced 👍

Fantastic gym in an ideal location overlooking the docks. Cliff, the trainers and the people here are great - no egos or bravado. Great mix of classes on all day, everyday to suit your schedule, large mat areas and well-equipped facilities. Happy to recommend.

I’ve trained with Arnas and the fight team for over a week now and have really enjoyed the Muay Thai sessions. The team are so friendly and inclusive, Arnas is very knowledgeable and helpful giving me valuable feedback. They also have a weights area which has everything you need for strength workouts. I also have to say the female changing room is very clean. Cliff the owner has been super accommodating and I will definately return. Thank you guys!

best gym out there

Must train here Respectful people No egos No toxic people Loving community Welcoming to all levels No nonsense

Possibility the best gym in London, positive atmosphere and great coaches

Amazing gym, with good vibes and good people, I would definitely recommend if you are trying to get into combat sports or just for general fitness.

Been training at diesel for nearly 2 years, specifically the 10th planet jiu jitsu. All of the coaches are excellent and there's a wide range of classes avaialble, from fundamental through to advanced. Beginners are very welcome and egos are left at the door, you should not be worried at all about joining. Unfortunately I don't have the time to fit in the other martial arts but they are also fantastic groups from what I've seen.

Best gym ever! I loved it there

I go for Lauren's workout classes and she's an amazing PT 👏 🤩 Thank you for motivating me.

Lovely gym. The main man, Cliff, is a legend. Recommended!

Friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Great and clean facility! Excellent trainers/coaches

The gratis Boot Camp and Circuit Training classes by Lauren are brilliant. The classes are open to all levels and aspire to be sweaty adrenaline charged sessions. Lauren's enthusiasm is infectious and the ladies group is super supportive and familial. The martial arts crew training next us somehow manage to remain friendly and smiling despite the endless punching and kicking. The dock side location is perfect for a post workout cool breeze.
