Virgin Active set to open 'social wellness club' at Sydney's Bondi Junction

Virgin Active health clubs are counting down to the opening of what it says will be a “revolutionary social wellness club” at Sydney's Bondi Junction.

Due to open in May, the new space aims to combine a high-quality fitness and relaxation offering with spaces to work and play based on an ‘all-day’ concept.

Located on Level 1 of Westfield Bondi, the new 2,500 square metre facility will replace the former David Jones Food Hall and will operate alongside Virgin Active's Bondi Junction facility, offering premium services and facilities including:

• State-of-the-art gym equipped with the latest fitness technology

• Group exercise classes that cater to all fitness levels

• Reformer Pilates

• Cold plunge, sauna and spa

• Dedicated recovery zones to aid in post-workout recovery

• Sound baths for mental and physical rejuvenation

• Business lounge and co-working spaces

• Health food café

• Expert health professionals including personal trainers, instructors and nutritionists

Advising that the club is “designed to provide a holistic approach to wellness, members can tailor their experience to their unique goals” Dean Kowarski, Virgin Active Group Chief Executive, commented “Virgin Active’s vision is to change people’s lives for the better through wellness.

“We consciously design beautiful spaces that blend physical activity, fitness, wellness, nourishment, work and social interaction, delivering experiences which transcend the traditional fitness club proposition and support every member’s personalised wellness journey.”
