Tucked beneath the railway arches on Albert Embankment, Sleven Fitness is more than just a gym. It’s a high-performance hub, a community stronghold, and a home for people who take their training seriously.
Founded by Tim, and driven forward by Head Coach Loren, Sleven has quickly built a reputation as one of Vauxhall’s best-kept fitness secrets. But this isn’t a space built for exclusivity, it’s built for inclusion, performance, and progress.
“We’re here to raise the bar, not just in terms of physical training, but in how we support people through their fitness journeys,” says Tim.
From the moment you step inside, you’ll notice the difference. The space is clean, minimal, and purposeful. The programming is sharp, intelligent, and built for results. Whether you’re a competitive CrossFitter, a weekend warrior, or totally new to lifting, the team here takes the time to get to know you, your goals, and what you need to feel strong, supported, and seen.
Sleven offers:
- Expert-led strength and conditioning classes
- Personalised programming
- Nutrition coaching
- Physiotherapy services
- A warm, motivated community
But what really sets Sleven apart is the coaching. Loren and the rest of the team bring serious credentials and an infectious energy to every session. They’ll push you, cheer you on, and hold you accountable, all while making sure you’re moving safely and progressing smartly.
“Our coaching is technical, yes, but it’s also human. We meet people where they are and then help them level up,” Loren explains.
Sleven isn’t about fads or quick fixes. It’s about longevity, consistency, and doing things right. And for a lot of their members, it’s also about belonging. The vibe here is tight-knit and uplifting, with community events, intra-gym competitions, and socials helping to bring everyone together, in and out of the gym.
For those new to fitness or returning after a break, Sleven offers an excellent onboarding programme that breaks down the basics and helps you build confidence from day one. It’s also a great place for experienced athletes looking for that extra edge, whether through structured group programming or bespoke one-on-one coaching.
If you’re ready to train with purpose and be part of something bigger, Sleven is your spot.
