A lovely family owned gym with supportive and helpful trainers. If you're turned away from gyms because you feel out of place or they feel a bit too macho then this place would probably be up your alley. For those familiar, their boot camps are high intensity interval training, similar to F45, offered before and after work. M

Full Review:
I’ve been a member of NFA for around 4 months now and I have to say that it’s been one of the best decisions that I have ever made!
James and Kat are passionate about your health and when you need any help with your techniques, or any questions related to fitness, they will gladly help you as they did with me.
I was completely clueless before my induction with James, but he gave me the confidence I needed to push past my initial difficulties

Ive been a member at the NFA for 2 years and love it. The fitness training is always a different routine so you never get bored. If the exercises seem easy you just add extra weights. Kettlebells, weights, Burpees lunges, running, indoors and outdoors NFA has the lot.
Kat & James are watching everyone to check they have the right movement and form so you don’t get injured. I’ve lost weight and toned up and feel so much more confident in myself.
We feel like we have community of friends not just a gym with machines and corporate brand. Plus they have a very cute dog 👍

I never thought that I would feel comfortable going to the gym, let alone enjoy it, but both Kat and James have chased my fears away. The environment they have created is warm and welcoming for all levels of experience. They will help you set goals for yourself and guide you to achieve them. If you are nervous about joining a gym or want experienced trainers to help you achieve your goals this is the place for you.

An exceptionally professional and welcoming gym and bootcamp. One fixed fee and then unlimited bootcamps. No tie-in contracts. Free trial. Online booking with app is seamless. CV-19 secure.
But, beyond all of this is it's fun and it works - you want to keep coming back because of the people and the results! Individual PT's available if you need the extra input or flexibility around family life. I can't recommend this place enough.

I couldn’t recommend NFA more highly. Kat and James have created both a gym and a community, providing brilliant and varied daily boot camps and 1-1 PT sessions. They even kept us going through lockdown, providing live online sessions and setting various exercise challenges for us all. It went a long way towards keeping us all sane. Basically, it’s a whole lot more than a gym and I am very pleased it exists.

Norwich Fitness Academy is a wonderfully open and friendly gym where you really feel part of a community of fun, like-minded people. I went from not being able to do a single push-up to being able to do many! I could only have achieved this with the support of Kat and James, who are fantastic at pushing you to achieve your utmost without injuring you. I’m sad that I’m leaving Norwich and can’t continue to attend.

Can’t recommend this place enough. I’ve always loved the gym and exercise in general but I lacked motivation when training alone. The Norwich Fitness Academy is amazing, everyone is friendly and helpful. Incredible atmosphere in every class and suitable for all abilities, and all members help encourage each other as well as the Team running each class. The free trial is totally worth it, you won’t regret joining this amazing club/friendly group.
