What people ask us
What times are the gym classes in Gateshead?
Weekday classes run at 6am, 7am and 9:30am, then 5pm, 6pm and 7pm, with open gym from 8 to 9:30am and 4 to 5pm. On Saturday the Saturday Slog runs at 8am and 9am, Family Open Gym starts at 9am and Comp Club is at 11am. On Sunday, Sunday Sweatz and open gym both run from 9 to 11am. The gym is closed from 10:30am to 4pm on weekdays.
Are the classes suitable for beginners?
Yes. Every class has a coach who scales each movement to you: a lighter weight, fewer reps or an easier version of the exercise. Beginners and regulars do the same session side by side. Most members started with no gym experience, and anyone who would like a walk-through first can ask for an induction when they register.
How many people are in a class and how long does it last?
Most classes have between 10 and 20 people, small enough for the coach to watch every rep. A standard class lasts about 60 minutes: a warm-up, a strength or skill block, the workout and a cool-down. The Saturday Slog and Sunday Sweatz run for two hours.
Do I need to book a class?
Yes. Members book classes in the app, which also shows the day’s workout and tracks your lifts and performance. When you register we help you get set up and book your first class, so you know exactly when and where to turn up.
How much do the classes cost?
Nothing for your first month. After that membership is £60 a month on a rolling contract and covers every class, open gym and the apps. There is no joining fee and no long tie-in, and you can cancel with one month’s notice.
Is it easy to get to from Newcastle, Washington or Durham?
The gym is on Queensway South, Team Valley, just off the A1, with free parking outside the door. It is about 15 minutes’ drive from Newcastle city centre or Washington and about 25 minutes from Durham, so the 6am and evening classes fit around the commute.
