The Moscow-based World Class Company has announced the opening of the sixth club in its Fizkult chain in Saratov, Russia.
The 2,000sq m (21,530sq ft) club features a 288sq m (3,100sq ft) gym, a separate cardio zone, two studios for group fitness classes, and a sports hall which can be used for football, volleyball or tennis.

The Fizkult chain has 13,500 members across its six clubs, four of which are based in Moscow and St Petersburg. The remaining two clubs are franchise projects based in Rostov-on-Don and in Saratov.

The new club has been funded thanks to the partnership with Alfa Capital Partners.
The total investment planned for the chain is estimated at US$120m by the end of 2010.
