Fitness Grand

Fitness Grand is a local independent gym located in Griffith, Canberra, that has recently expanded to offer 500 sqm of gym space. As the only 24-hour gym in Manuka, Fitness Grand aims to provide a comprehensive fitness experience for individuals of all fitness levels.

Established in 2004, Fitness Grand was created to cater to the inner south Canberra region. The gym prides itself on its close-knit team of experienced personal trainers who are committed to helping members achieve their fitness goals. The combination of smart technology and modern equipment ensures that every workout at Fitness Grand is effective and engaging.

The ground floor of the gym houses a boutique Group Fitness Space. Equipped with HR technology, virtual displays, Technogym equipment, and multiple HIIT zones, this space allows members to participate in bespoke functional workouts led by experienced personal trainers. Group classes, such as Wattbike RIDE, Yoga, and Zumba, are also available for those who prefer a more structured workout experience.

On the first level, members will find the 24/7 gym. This 350 sqm space features free weights, a large functional area, cardio zones, and premium pin-loaded machines. Private changerooms are available for convenience, and in-house physio and massage therapy services are provided to help members recover and prevent injuries.

Fitness Grand offers a 4-week starter pack for those who want to experience everything the gym has to offer. For just $180, new members will have access to the 24/7 gym, all group fitness classes, a full (non-invasive) body composition scan, and the FG app to track their progress. Additionally, members can schedule a 60-minute PT session with an experienced trainer. Electronic access passes are included in the package.

To cater to the diverse needs of individuals, Fitness Grand offers three tiers of membership: 24/7 gym only, group fitness only, and 24/7 gym with group fitness. Members can join online through the gym's website. Discounts are available for seniors.

Fitness Grand also hosts Zumba classes every Wednesday night at 6:30 pm. This fun and intense dance workout welcomes individuals of all ages and fitness levels. No dancing experience is required, just a motivated spirit and a water bottle. Zumba Gold, designed for older adults and beginners, takes place every Friday at 12 pm.

This class offers a lower-impact workout that protects joints and muscles while improving balance, posture, and coordination.

Yoga classes are conducted every Tuesday at 5:30 pm and every Saturday at 12 pm. Led by instructor Nivedita, who hails from the Himalayan foothills of Nepal, these classes provide a chance to learn about the correlation between human anatomy and yoga. Nivedita's energetic teaching style is greatly appreciated by students.

For those looking for a unique cycling experience, Fitness Grand offers Wattbike Group Ride, featuring the world's number one indoor bike. This class is included in the 24/7 gym membership.
