CLUBBING INSTITUTION MINISTRY OF SOUND OPENS ITS OWN GYM
Ministry Does Fitness opens with promise of sticking two fingers up at pretentious gym culture.
6th February, 2017, Ministry of Sound, London’s original super club is launched its first ever gym - The Arches, where Ministry Does Fitness. A purpose built training studio in Elephant & Castle, The Arches is set to shake up the London fitness scene.
Housed in the club’s previously hidden booze vault, this is London’s first workout space that actively encourages gym goers to work hard and play harder. Home to a fully licensed bar, expect fuelling protein shakes by day and expertly mixed cocktails by night.
Living by the ethos of ‘Be Good to be Bad’, Ministry Does Fitness is unpretentious. A gym for real people, posters on the walls actively ban perfect hair gym-selfies, and as for dress code, no one cares! This no-frills approach even extends to the straight talking staff and urban decor.
Five signature classes, six days a week:
CARDIO - MONDAY
Designed to push and thrill you time and time again, this high
intensity full body work out is designed to get your heart pumping.
STRENGTH - TUESDAY
This innovative class uses pioneering functional movement to
condition those muscles with a focus on form and technique.
ENDURANCE - WEDNESDAY
Perfect for conditioning. This uncompromising class is designed
to test willpower and increase stamina.
CORE - THURSDAY
This class is focused on strengthening and toning as well
as localised and intense bursts of cardio to burn fat.
SHOWCASE - FRIDAY | SATURDAY
An intense full body work out that is designed to test legs,
arms, abs and cardio systems.
[endif]--A gym that’s as serious about getting results, the programme at Ministry Does Fitness is masterminded by Harry Jameson – one of London’s most sought after personal trainers. Jameson has handpicked a crack team of trainers who will deliver classes to sculpt, tone, strengthen and lengthen, six days a week, all focused around seven purpose built training stations. Each zone features a selection of versatile equipment including treadmills, kettlebells, weights, TRX and benches which are used in full body combination to test and challenge.
Using the same state of the art club sound system as the club, The Arches will never play the same playlist twice. With 25 years of clubbing expertise and music programming knowhow, class playlists have been specially curated to get the best results possible. So gym goers wanting to lift heavier, run faster or train longer, will work out to music that is specifically designed to achieve their unique fitness goals.
“We’re ripping up the rule book,” says Ministry Does Fitness General Manager, Olivia Brafman
“Life is all about balance and not slaving away in the gym with only a carrot at the finish line. We want our customers to come to The Arches to sweat their arses off, have fun and celebrate a good work out at the bar where the party continues. It’s all about the experience, the social and leaving on a high.”
