Why Forge
Training that respects your time, body, and head space.
Every detail of the studio is built around one idea: progress should feel sustainable. No mirrors-and-mayhem energy. Just clear coaching, clean spaces, and a method that actually lasts.
Coach-led, never crowded
Small-group classes cap at twelve. Your coach knows your name, your numbers, and exactly when to push or hold you back.
A method that compounds
Periodised programming adapts every block. You stop guessing and start watching real, measurable strength stack up week after week.
Recovery built in
Sauna, mobility studio, and guided breathwork are part of every membership. Hard training only works if you actually recover.
A community that lasts
Members stay an average of three years. You will train beside people who notice when you miss a Tuesday and cheer your first chin-up.
Track everything
Log lifts in the member app, see trends, and get a weekly read on what to prioritise. Your data, never sold, always yours.
Designed to be calm
Natural light, warm timber, considered acoustics. The studio is a place you want to be, not a fluorescent box you endure.
The Classes
Six signature sessions. One clear path to stronger.
Mix and match across the week. Every class is built on the same progressive method, so your training stays joined-up no matter what you choose.
Conditioning
Engine Room
Smart intervals that build a heart and lungs that keep up with everything else you are getting strong at.
Mobility
Range
A deep, deliberate mobility flow. Earn the positions that make every other lift safer and stronger.
Technique
Olympic Lab
Clean, jerk, snatch. The most technical lifts, broken down step by step until they feel like second nature.
Hybrid
Iron Flow
Kettlebells, dumbbells, and bodyweight strung into one flowing session. Strength and grace in equal measure.
Recovery
Still & Breathe
Guided breathwork, stretch, and sauna. The session that makes all the hard ones actually pay off.
The Coaches
Twelve coaches. Decades of getting people genuinely strong.
Every Forge coach is fully certified, continuously trained, and ridiculously good at meeting you exactly where you are.
Astrid Lindqvist
Head Coach · Strength
Former national powerlifter. Believes the best programme is the one you can repeat for ten years.
Marcus Holt
Conditioning Lead
Endurance specialist who makes hard intervals feel weirdly addictive. Coffee snob, proudly.
Lena Brandt
Mobility & Recovery
Physio background. Will fix the niggle you have been ignoring and teach you why it happened.
Theo Nyström
Olympic Lifting
National weightlifting coach. Turns intimidating barbell movements into something you actually want to practise.

Questions
Everything you might be wondering.
Not at all. Most members arrive having not trained in years. Every class scales to your level, and your first session is a relaxed intro with a coach who maps out exactly where to begin. There is no fitness test and no judgement.
Unlimited access to every class, the full recovery suite, a one-to-one onboarding session, and full use of the member app. No card required up front, and no obligation to continue. We want you to feel the difference before you decide anything.
Every class is capped at twelve people. That ratio is the whole point: it means your coach can correct your form, adjust your load, and remember your name. We would rather turn people away than overfill a session.
Yes, freely. There are no contracts and no cancellation fees. You can pause your membership for up to three months a year at no cost, and cancel any time from the app or front desk with a single tap.
Classes run 6:00am to 8:00pm, seven days a week. The recovery suite and open-gym floor are accessible to Forge and Forge Pro members from 5:30am to 10:00pm daily, including bank holidays.
Yes. Forge Pro includes a weekly private session, and any member can book standalone 1:1s with any coach through the app. Sessions are 55 minutes and fully tailored to whatever you are working towards.
