Inclusive, Athletic Fun! Calisthenics
Adult Gymnastics
Obstacle Course Racing
Deka Training System No machines what so ever! You are the machine.

Our facilities are nothing like the run of the mill facilities you will find in your regular gym. No pounding of treadmills, sweating over elliptical exercisers, not a stair machine, rowing machine nor exercise bike in sight. We are stripping – literally! We have taken exercise back to its natural roots. Fitness that means something, fitness that you can use in your everyday life. Its not about be

ing thin, ripped or musclebound. It’s about gaining a good all round fitness that means something. You WILL gain the kind of fitness levels to ensure you are at the top of the food chain in the event of the zombie apocalypse – should it ever happen! Above all you are going to have so much fun you aren’t even going to notice you are training…..too much! By focusing on movement, and using your body the way it was designed to move. By climbing, swinging, crawling, rolling, jumping, balancing, diving, pulling, pushing, squatting, throwing, sprinting, dodging, hanging, spinning, breathing and stretching – all within one very special space! Our facility is second to none. It’s fun, challenging and continually evolving around our customers. We have developed a programme to get you in the best all round shape you have ever been. Think of it as a full a la carte menu if you will – you can pick and choose the elements you like – or you can leave it to our master trainers and follow the all-round conditioning system we have specifically developed to ensure you are the Natural Selection.

At Primal out goal is to make exercise feel supportive, fun and effective! That's why we do things differently.

We are a community, we don't take ourselves too seriously and above all, our coaches really know their stuff!

The result? Fitness and movement that you actually can't wait to do.

Motivation follows action.... here's how ⬇

We rarely get motivated before we do something... and very often once we've started. Here is the real reason you started and it STILL hasn't worked for you:

🔹There was no system in place to support you.

1️⃣ If you started feeling out of place → it doesn't feel motivating, it feels intimidating.
2️⃣ If you started without being given a plan → it doesn't feel motivating, it feels confusing.
3️⃣ If you started without support → it doesn't feel motivating, it feels alienating.

At Primal we make your first steps feel welcome, clear and supported. This is what supports long term motivation.
