The second Coach club has opened just outside the town of Harrogate as part of a multi-site deal over the next 2 years with Core Health & Fitness. The club has all 5 of Core’s brands; Star Trac® cardio equipment, StairMaster® HIIT products, Nautilus® commercial strength products, Schwinn® indoor cycling bikes and Throwdown® for functional fitness solutions.

Peter Rigg, Director of UK Sales for Core Health & Fitness says, “We are delighted to work with such a quality up and coming brand that’s bringing innovation to the fitness industry and creating great fitness clubs.”

The Harrogate site consists of a large gym 20,000sqf fully equipped by Core Health & Fitness including, Nautilus Inspiration, Impact & Leverage, plus 3 half racks with separate platforms, along with a multitude of benches and racks.

The club also has 4 incredible dedicated studios; ‘Evolution’ for HIIT style classes featuring Star Trac 8TRX treadmills, FXD benches from Throwdown and bikes to complete the class. ‘Box’ is a boxing style concept with Throwdown rig, StairMaster HIIT Bikes and ski ergs. There is then a traditional studio for standard classes such as Bodypump and Zumba and a group cycling studio filled with customised Schwinn AC Sport bikes

There are ‘Gym Only’ or ‘Ultimate’ memberships which includes all the classes, with over 250 a month for members to choose from. The luxurious feel, plus number and variety of classes is attracting lots of female members to the gym.

The club is also linked to Surge Padel which houses 6 indoor courts, making it the biggest indoor Padel court facility in the UK and offering members variety to their weekly exercise programme.

Stuart Perrin, CEO of Coach Gyms, says “the people of Harrogate have been voting with their feet since the club opened at the end of January. Feedback has been excellent, they seem to really appreciate the luxury environment we have created as we bring a fresh approach to boutique health and fitness”
