“Loka Lanka is the real deal.

Nick’s sessions are tough in the best way and always full of good energy. He really knows how to push you while keeping things fun and motivating. Every workout feels personal!

The vibe is super chill, surrounded by good people and island energy. It’s more than just a gym, it’s a place that resets your body and mind. Highly recommend checking it out if you’re in Sri Lanka! 💪🌴”

“Best training experience I’ve had so far. They say train hard for the battle so you can win the war, and that’s exactly what Nick prepared me for. Huge props to him and his energy—it’s unmatched and unlike anything I’ve seen. I highly recommend trying at least one workout—HIIT circuit, boxing, or whatever’s on the menu that day—and getting hooked. Stay strong!”

“I first met Nick back when he was doing beach boxing sessions last year🥊 (as you can see in the pics). He is a great coach and more importantly a great bloke, you’ll definitely feel welcome at Loca Lanka! 😃 I’ve since attended Nick’s Brazilian jiu jitsu classes which were excellently run. Mats cleaned thoroughly after every session, might not sound important, but if you train you know it is!! Whether it’s workouts, strength, fitness or martial arts/self defense – Nicks your guy, and Loca Lanka is your place! 💪”

“Amazing newly opened fitness hub in the jungle in southern Sri Lanka 🌴 Intense trainings of any form of striking or grappling, and HIIT circuits in an open air gym with really good vibes. Each sesh will make you sweat! It will push your limits, make you learn all while having fun. The pool & views are just a cool bonus. You can tell Nick, the owner & head coach, is living his dream running this place!”

“Such an amazing place to train! Right in the middle of the jungle, surrounded by nature—it’s the most beautiful spot for a workout. This was the best training session I’ve had in Sri Lanka! The pool makes it even more fun and really motivates you to push yourself. The instructor was super professional and kind, and since it was my first time, she took extra time to explain everything and make sure I was doing it right. I’ll definitely be back many more times!”

“One of the best places for martial arts and fitness in Sri Lanka! We had the pleasure of attending an MMA, wrestling, and boxing seminar at Loka Lanka Fitness with Coach Nick Carpenter. The facility is top-class—clean, spacious, and well-equipped for serious training. Nick brought world-class knowledge, great energy, and real attention to detail. His passion for combat sports and willingness to help grow the Sri Lankan scene is truly appreciated. Thank you to the entire Loka Lanka team for your warm hospitality. 5 stars all around!”

“Loved boxfitt! Totally out my comfort zone and I learnt a tonne, had a solid workout and most importantly had fun! Defo go when I go back to Sri Lanka! Nick is also a great coach with great tips and energy! The place itself is paradise…. Pool, shakes, changing facilities in a jungle! Wow!”
