Supplier showcase: Projects from Safe Space and FitQuest

Published in Health Club Management 2018 issue 6

Luxury upgrade

The south-east’s latest go-to golf destination, the luxurious Belhus Park Golf and Country Club, has added the final touch of class to its renovations with luxury lockers from Safe Space

The club, which is undergoing a huge upgrade to add to its already impressive facilities, is located in an enviable position in the grounds of the former Belhus Mansion.

For this high-end, high-spec renovation, only the best would do and Lee Clary from Impulse Leisure – the trust supporting the renovation – wanted to ensure the upgrade of the luxury changing rooms at Belhus Park was in safe, reliable hands, so contacted Safe Space Lockers.

The club required a quality changing room, in a style sympathetic to the rest of Belhus Park and using products that would stand the test of time.

Clary says: “The team at Safe Space were an absolute pleasure to work with, from the initial contact through to the site visits and subsequent quote.

“The company also offered an attractive proposal, with reasonable costs and a choice of solutions to ensure the most appropriate product was selected for the installation.”

“We had very tight deadlines,” he says, “but Safe Space committed to them and delivered a stunning quality changing room, as promised, with the final installation exceeding our expectations.”

Security a priority
The matter of security is taken very seriously at Belhus Park Golf and Country Club, so it was also important to deliver lockers that were both stylish and secure.

Two types of locker configurations were chosen to supply the correct number of locker compartments, while fresh new colours complement the floor and walls in the stately location.

Director of Safe Space, Dominic Hyett, said: “There’s no greater accolade than a happy customer. We’ve built an excellent reputation for delivering and accepting nothing but the best.

“Our secret is listening to our customers, delivering expert advice and producing results we and they can be proud of. It’s a simple process, but one we live by and that delivers results.”

Safe Space serves numerous high-end and luxury clients but also provides changing rooms to suit a variety of budgets and tastes. To find out more, contact: [email protected]

Teaming up

CityFit members are taking their fitness to the next level with the help of FitQuest, which is now installed in nine clubs within the CityFit estate across Poland

In a competitive fitness market, FitQuest is helping CityFit stand out, offering something different to members and so far the feedback has been exceptional.

From helping people fast-track their weight loss goals to being able to identify small muscle imbalances, FitQuest is providing CityFit members with a new level of insight into their training which was previously only available to elite athletes or premium gym members.

FitQuest, which is powered by MIE medical, measures a person’s physical capacity over eight parameters in just four minutes, offering a wider range of data and feedback to users than other devices on the market, as well as a much more accurate and useful levels of analysis.

This unique testing supports operators’ goals by offering tailored exercise programming for gym-goers, based on a breadth of data on their physical fitness.

competitive edge
CityFit is a modern, innovative brand of low cost gyms in Poland. “We offer competitive prices, flexible membership options, 24/7 opening hours and high-end equipment,” says CEO Richard Keen. “Adding FitQuest to our estate is a part of our business plan and has given us another edge over the competition. It complements our dedication to innovative technology.”

CityFit has always focused on leveraging technology that can support and manage the member experience. “That’s why FitQuest was a perfect addition to the CityFit offering,” says Brian Firth, FitQuest CEO. “CityFit members can use the FitQuest machines both independently or with a trainer to help them achieve their goals and track their progress. It’s the first time members have been able to access quantitative data related to their fitness.”

CityFit opened its first club in 2014 in Rzeszow. This was followed by clubs in Warsaw, Gdansk, Krakow, Wroclaw, Katowice, Chorzow, Bydgoszcz, Lublin, Bielsko-Biala and Walbrzych. The chain now consists of 15 clubs in 12 cities.

The team is planning to expand to 50 locations across Poland in the coming years, with FitQuest playing an important role in the offering.
