Elisabeth Royde

Lovely teacher, great workout. I felt able to ask lots of dumb first timers questions and never felt embarrassed, I will definitely be going back for another class!

I have been coming to Fison for a couple of years now, first when pregnant to go to their excellent Bump Strong classes, then with my baby to the mums & babies sessions and now the 'regular ones'. They have created a special place.

I have trained with Joe at Fison Fitness for two years and still love every session, he mixes up the workouts and keeps an eye on my injuries.

'Fusion' with Regina is the best, never been to a gym class like it! Perfect mix of flexibility, workout, and a mental challenge.

I love Lucy's deep release classes. She has a gentle and welcoming way of teaching and creates a lovely intimate atmosphere in the class.

I've been a member at this gym for over a year and it's completely in a league of its own. The trainers are highly knowledgeable and motivated.

I highly recommend this for postpartum exercise classes! They have something on every day for mums with babies and provide toys, bouncy chairs and bumbo seats for the babies.

The people behind it

Faces behind Fison

Anne Fison, owner of Fison Fitness

Anne Fison

Took over Fison Fitness in 2015 · grew up in Herne Hill

Anne took over Fison Fitness in 2015, having grown up in Herne Hill herself. Under her, the studio grew from a single railway arch into two full studios in Herne Hill, and then a third site in Oval.

Anne's focus has always been on how members feel over how they look, and on building a studio that never feels intimidating. Members call out Anne and Joe by name for pushing them to the right level without ever making them feel judged.

Our focus is on how you feel, not how you look.

Joe Peyton, owner, coach and personal trainer at Fison Fitness

Joe Peyton

Joined Fison early 2019 · grew up in Herne Hill

Joe joined Fison in early 2019 and now delivers both classes and personal training across both sites.

Members who've trained with Joe for years talk about how he mixes up every session and keeps an eye on old injuries rather than just running the same programme.

There is always something you can do.

Beyond Anne and Joe, around 40 freelance coaches teach across Herne Hill and Oval, matched to whatever you need, strength, yoga, Pilates, barre or Mums & Babies. Members name Stephen, Regina, Lucy and Izzy among their favourites.

A member's story

From bump to regular

Izzy found Fison while pregnant, through the Bump Strong classes. When her baby arrived she moved into Mums & Babies, where little ones are genuinely welcome in the room. A couple of years on, she's a regular across both studios.

I have been coming to Fison for a couple of years now, first when pregnant to go to their excellent Bump Strong classes, then with my baby to the mums & babies sessions and now the ‘regular ones’. They have created a special place.

Community

Part of a real community

Members don't just talk about the classes, they talk about the people. Regulars know each other's names, coaches remember your injuries, and mums who started in Bump Strong classes are still coming years later with their kids in tow.

We back that up outside the studio too, our team rowed 200km at Kennington Market to raise money for Safety4Kids, and we run £5 community yoga sessions to keep the door open to everyone. Come find out what a stronger body, a softer heart and new connections actually feel like.
