Those looking to compete have ample opportunity under the guidance of Coach Henry.
Henry Cleminson is one of the world’s most decorated and respected combat sports coaches, with a proven track record of developing champions across multiple disciplines and organisations. His journey began in Muay Thai, where he built a coaching philosophy rooted in technical excellence, mental resilience, and elite preparation — a discipline in which he continues to produce world-class talent.
He has guided Nathan Bendon to WBC World Championship glory and UK Number 1 status, helped Liam McGrandles claim both the WBC International and European titles, and developed Ellis Barboza into a credible contender for the ONE Championship World Title. Today, Henry works alongside former WBC World Champion Lucy Payne, current UK Number 1 Che Bradley, and WBC British Champion Ben Campbell — reflecting the calibre of athlete he continues to attract and develop.
In MMA, Henry’s impact has been extraordinary. He played an instrumental role in Leon Edwards’ journey to UFC World Championship glory, working with him over many years through the highs and lows of an elite career. He has also been central to Fabian Edwards’ rise, coaching him to title contention in both BELLATOR and the PFL.
Henry now brings that same championship-level expertise to two of the sport’s most exciting rising stars — Ian Garry, who is firmly in contention for the UFC World Title, and Shay Ingram, who is pushing hard for Cage Warriors gold.
Across two combat sports and multiple world title campaigns, Henry Cleminson’s coaching pedigree speaks for itself. At CoreFit UK, his knowledge, experience, and dedication are available to athletes at every level — from beginners to those chasing titles on the world stage.
Alongside Henry we have a wealth of top coaches that would rival any gym anywhere in the country or the world. To perform at the highest level, you must surround yourself with the highest standards. All our classes are taught by coaches with years of experience under their belt..
