OUR STORY
Since our humble beginnings in 1993, we have become one of the largest fitness brands in the world, and the largest in Southeast Asia. A trusted and enduring brand, we have an unrivalled network in the region, with knowledgeable teams, new technology and world class clubs. Through the years, we’ve seen a lot of changes and we’ve come a long way. But our purpose remains clear: we are the fitness leaders who inspire people to go further in life.
With more than 230,000 members around the region, we’re always looking for new ways to support and inspire them – and not just in the gym.
