In late 2020, we finished work on our brand new gym development! We had big plans like many of you for the Summer but, with a situation none of us expected, we closed our facilities for an extended period of time in line with government guidance.
With the future looking happier and healthier, many of you are returning to the London Aquatic Centre, so we thought it was time to celebrate that which we never had a chance to!
The new gym developments include:
- New state of the art Technogym equipment, including Skill Mills, Steppers & brand new spinning bikes
- Fresh eye-catching space with beat changing LED lighting to keep your workout exciting!
On Sunday the 27th of February we’re going to be opening up our doors to new visitors, giving everyone the chance to celebrate at our official open day event. The event will be held from 10am to 3pm, with free activities for adults and children.
During the open event, visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy our state-of-the-art fitness suite, our exercise studios, our café and seating area as well as a wider variety of activities for free. Throughout the day there will also be Aqua Splash sessions in the main pool hall for those looking to get wet and wild at the weekend! Please book these sessions via the following link.
At the open event we will be hosting an exciting gym challenge for all to take part in and to test their fitness levels. The challenge will consist of a 1000m row followed by 1 mile bike and 1k run - we will be handing prizes out to the top three participants. Our top prize consists of 2 x tickets to the Super League Triathlon!
Throughout the event we will also be offering free personal training taster sessions with our partners at Your Personal Training, please email us at legacyvenues@gll.org to book these in advance.
Keith Griffiths, newly appointed General Manager at London Aquatic Centre, said: “We’re so excited for the official launch of London Aquatic Centre.”
“The centre will play a pivotal part in helping the community to improve their health and wellbeing both in our Olympic legacy pool and now also in the state of the art gym facilities, so we’re really looking forward to being able to finally celebrate with an official open day.”
“It will be great to see the residents and visitors to QEOP benefiting from all the fantastic facilities we have on offer and hope they will join us for a weekend of fun-filled activities for the whole family.”
Whatever your goals, the new gym offers a great range of equipment to help you on your fitness journey and we are certain that your visit to London Aquatics Centre is sure to be a much improved one.
So, come down and enjoy the breathtaking views of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, the pool of champions and work up a sweat in the new gym.
