Open Gym
“Your time. Your plan. Our space.”
Service Description
Our Open Gym sessions give you the freedom to train at your own pace in our supportive space. During these times, the gym is open for independent training—you bring your own plan, and we provide the environment and equipment. A coach or volunteer will always be present in the facility, happy to offer guidance if needed, but the focus is on giving you the space to move and lift in your own way. Volunteers and coaches might train themself or with others. You must book before arrival; we do not have a reception. We ask all members to respect the space and each other: no unnecessary banging, no overly loud music, and always return equipment clean and tidy. Together, we keep the environment safe, calm, and welcoming for everyone. ⸻ Disclaimer: By booking and attending Open Gym sessions, you acknowledge that you are training voluntarily and at your own risk. Coaches and volunteers are present in the facility but are not responsible for your training plan, progress, or personal safety. Please exercise within your limits, use equipment responsibly, and ask for guidance if unsure. ⸻ Decencies / Etiquette: • Respect others, the space and equipment fairly. • No unnecessary dropping or banging of weights. • Keep music to a respectful volume. • Wipe down and return all equipment after use. • Use the space mindfully—this is a supportive and calm environment.
