    “ I couldn’t rate this gym highly enough! I have never found a more welcoming and friendly community than this. Queer Gym is more than a safe place to work out, it’s a place to meet great people and to be yourself. Respected place with great ENERGY!! Highly recommended! “

    “ Blissful place and such a relief compared to mainstream gyms. Nice casual atmosphere in which you don't feel watched at all, everyone can participate according to their own abilities and be themselves. A real safe space! “

  • - Annelien D.

    “ Queer Gym is such a safe place and the personal and subtle approach of Boris allows you to push your limits without effort or pressure. At your own pace. Both on a mental and physical level. It has become a fixed value in my life for me and I can't miss it anymore!! “

    “ Great gym! Everyone is welcome and it's always a nice atmosphere. Queer Gym always makes a lot of effort to put enough variety into their workouts so that it never gets boring to exercise. Whatever sport level or complaint you have, they will adjust sufficiently individually during the workouts so that it really is for everyone. “

    “ Na eerder een personal trainer gehad te hebben waar ik me in de stereotype macho cultuur niet goed bij voelde, zocht ik iemand waar ik gewoon mezelf bij kon zijn. Nu train ik al twee jaar bij Boris en ik boek nog steeds vooruitgang! ”
