GET READY FOR EUROPE’S FIRST FITNESS STUDIO VILLAGE

Forget Everything You Think You Know About Fitness Studios

Europe’s first fitness studio village is coming to West Wood Club Clontarf.

And the first two incredible new studios open in early November 2026.

Something very special is happening at West Wood Club Clontarf.

Actually...

We think something revolutionary is happening.

As part of our multi-million euro investment in West Wood Club Clontarf, we are completely rethinking what a fitness class area can be.

Not one big studio trying to be everything to everyone.

Not a room where you do Yoga at 9am, a high-energy workout at 10am and Pilates at lunchtime.

Instead, we are creating something completely different.

Europe’s first Fitness Studio Village

An entire area of West Wood Club Clontarf dedicated to a collection of spectacular, purpose-built fitness studios.

Different studios.

Different environments.

Different training experiences.

Different fitness goals.

All brought together in one incredible new Fitness Studio Village.

And in early November, you’ll get your first taste of it.

Because the first TWO new studios are almost ready.

A huge new Les Mills CONQUER™ Studio for more than 40 people.

And a beautiful new West Wood Club Mind/Body Studio for more than 50 people.

One designed to make your heart race.

The other designed to slow everything down.

One where you can punch, run, sweat and push yourself.

The other where you can stretch, breathe, move, strengthen and reset.

And this is only the beginning.

Over the following six months, even more new specialist fitness studios will open as the Fitness Studio Village at West Wood Club Clontarf continues to take shape.

WHY BUILD A FITNESS STUDIO VILLAGE?

Because we think the traditional fitness studio has had its day.

Think about it.

We don't expect one room in a gym to cater for every type of training.

We create dedicated strength areas.

Dedicated cardio areas.

Dedicated functional training areas.

Dedicated swimming pools.

Dedicated spas.

So why should completely different fitness classes all have to share the same type of room?

A Yoga class should not feel like a boxing class.

A Pilates class should not feel like a HIIT workout.

A high-energy conditioning class should not take place in a room designed for quiet, controlled movement.

The environment matters.

The lighting matters.

The equipment matters.

The acoustics matter.

The flooring matters.

The atmosphere matters.

How you feel when you walk into the room matters.

So we're creating specialist studios designed around the actual experience taking place inside them.

That is the thinking behind the NEW Fitness Studio Village.

And when it's completed, West Wood Club Clontarf members will have an extraordinary choice of purpose-built fitness experiences — all under one roof.

FIRST UP: THE NEW LES MILLS CONQUER™ STUDIO

The new Les Mills CONQUER™ Studio will accommodate more than 40 people and bring an entirely different style of training to West Wood Club Clontarf.

If you've never tried boxing-based fitness before, forget any ideas you might have about intimidating boxing gyms.

There are no opponents.

Nobody is trying to hit you.

And you absolutely do not need to know how to box.

CONQUER uses the excitement, movement and energy of boxing as a seriously effective way to get fit.

You punch.

You run.

You move.

You strengthen.

You sweat.

And because you're constantly doing something different, you don't spend your workout staring at the clock wondering when it's going to end.

Quite the opposite. Somehow, 45 minutes just flies by..

PUNCH. RUN. STRIKE.

That pretty much sums up CONQUER.

The workout combines three completely different training stations.

• Boxing bags.

• Curved treadmills.

• Floor-based functional strength training.

During a CONQUER class, you rotate through these different stations over a series of rounds.

One minute you're throwing combinations at a professional boxing bag.

Next you're on a curved treadmill.

Then you're down on the floor working through functional strength exercises.

Then...

Back to the bags.

The music is going.

Your instructor is coaching you.

The rest of the class is working around you.

And there’s no standing around.

No waiting for equipment.

No wondering what exercise you should do next.

You just keep moving.

Bag.

Treadmill.

Strength.

Then back around again.

Les Mills CONQUER is a complete boxing conditioning workout combining explosive bag work, treadmill sprints and functional strength.

But here's what really matters.

It doesn't feel like a conventional workout.

And that's exactly the point!

NEVER BOXED BEFORE?

Perfect.

CONQUER isn't designed for boxers.

It's designed for people who want to get fit.

You don't need boxing experience.

You don't need to be super fit.

You don't need incredible coordination.

And you certainly don't need to arrive knowing what you're doing.

Everything is coached.

You learn the movements.

You learn the combinations.

You control your own intensity.

You build confidence.

And then you get better.

That makes CONQUER ideal for the experienced member looking for a completely different training challenge.

But it also makes it surprisingly accessible for someone trying boxing-based fitness for the very first time.

And there is something wonderfully satisfying about hitting a boxing bag.

Bad day at work?

We'll say no more.

AND WE'RE ADDING CONQUER FAMILY CLASSES

This is another part we're particularly excited about.

The new studio won't just host regular CONQUER classes.

We will also be introducing CONQUER Family Classes.

An opportunity for families to get active together.

To exercise together.

To have fun together.

And perhaps introduce younger family members to fitness in a completely different way.

Because exercise doesn't always have to feel serious.

Sometimes the best way to get people moving is simply to make movement enjoyable.

BUT HERE'S SOMETHING ELSE THAT MAKES THE CONQUER STUDIO DIFFERENT...

It isn't only a class studio.

When CONQUER classes aren't taking place, the studio will be available for West Wood Club members to use as part of their normal workout.

That's important.

We didn't want to invest in a spectacular new training space that sits empty between classes.

So think of the CONQUER Studio as another training zone inside your club.

Walk in.

Use the boxing bags.

Use the curved treadmills.

Work with the functional equipment.

Create your own circuit.

Spend ten minutes there at the end of your normal gym workout.

Or build an entire workout around it.

Your club just got another training gym.

Except this one looks and feels very different.

NOW. WALK A FEW STEPS...AND EVERYTHING CHANGES.

Welcome to the new West Wood Club Mind/Body Studio.

Different atmosphere.

Different energy.

Different experience.

And deliberately so.

The new Mind/Body Studio will accommodate more than 50 people and will become the home of an incredible range of Yoga, Pilates, mobility, core and mind/body classes.

This is a studio designed to make you want to take your shoes off, put your phone away and stay for a while.

A place to move.

A place to stretch.

A place to strengthen.

A place to breathe.

And sometimes...

A place to simply slow down.

ONE STUDIO. SO MANY WAYS TO FEEL BETTER.

Your new Mind/Body timetable will include:

BODYBALANCE™

A flowing combination of Yoga-inspired movement, Tai Chi and Pilates-style training designed to improve flexibility, strength and wellbeing.

LES MILLS SHAPES™

Controlled, targeted training influenced by Pilates, barre and power yoga.

LES MILLS CORE™

Focused training designed to build strength and control through the muscles that support your body.

PILATES

Controlled movement. Core strength. Stability. Posture. Mobility.

And, of course...

YOGA.

Lots of it.

Because Yoga isn't one thing.

Different people come to Yoga looking for completely different experiences.

Some want flexibility.

Some want strength.

Some want mobility.

Some want to improve balance.

Some want to recover from harder training.

And some simply need 45 minutes when the rest of the world can wait outside.

So the new Mind/Body Studio will host a range of different Yoga experiences.

FIND THE YOGA THAT FITS YOU

YOGA HATHA

Slower. Controlled. Grounded.

Hatha focuses on alignment, balance, posture and body awareness while developing mobility, strength and stability.

YOGA VINYASA

More dynamic.

Movement flows with your breathing through sequences designed to develop strength, balance and control.

YOGA YIN

Slow everything down.

Longer-held stretches help release tension, improve mobility and give the body time to relax and recover.

YOGA BREATH

Sometimes fitness isn't about moving faster.

It's about learning how to slow down.

Guided breathing, gentle movement and calming music combine to help release tension and improve focus.

Plus our wider range of Yoga classes for different abilities and goals.

You don't need to be flexible before starting Yoga.

That's a bit like saying you need to be fit before joining a gym.

You come to improve.

And whether you're completely new to Yoga or have been practising for years, the new Mind/Body Studio is being created to give you an environment where you can feel comfortable doing exactly that.

AND BETWEEN THE STUDIOS?

SOMETHING ELSE.

We're not simply building a corridor with studio doors along it.

At the heart of the new Fitness Studio Village will be a fantastic new Social & Recovery Area.

Because we want this entire part of West Wood Club Clontarf to feel different.

Finish CONQUER?

Catch your breath.

Finish Yoga?

Don't immediately rush away.

Meet a friend before class.

Sit down afterwards.

Recover.

Talk.

Relax.

Take a few minutes before heading back into the real world.

Fitness has always been about more than equipment.

And health clubs should be about more than getting in, exercising and getting out again as quickly as possible.

The social side matters too.

Community matters.

Having somewhere you actually enjoy spending time matters.

So the Social & Recovery Area will sit right at the centre of the Fitness Studio Village.

A natural meeting point connecting the different experiences around it.

AND WE HAVEN'T TOLD YOU EVERYTHING YET

This is the bit we're struggling to keep quiet about.

Because CONQUER and Mind/Body are only the first two new studios.

They open in early November 2026.

Then the Fitness Studio Village keeps growing.

Over the following six months, additional brand-new specialist studios will open at West Wood Club Clontarf.

Each one designed around a different style of training.

A different experience.

A different reason to exercise.

We could tell you everything now.

But where's the fun in that?

We'll reveal the next studios as we get closer to opening them.

For now, just know this:

We're nowhere near finished.

THIS IS WHAT MULTI-MILLION EURO FITNESS INVESTMENT SHOULD FEEL LIKE

Not a lick of paint.

Not moving a few machines around.

Not replacing something old with something slightly newer.

Real change.

New spaces.

New concepts.

New equipment.

New classes.

New ways to train.

New reasons to come to the club.

And more choice for our members.

The Fitness Studio Village is part of our continuing multi-million euro investment in West Wood Club Clontarf.

And there's one simple reason we're making that investment.

We want West Wood Club Clontarf to keep getting better.

Not just bigger.

Better.

We want members who love high-energy training to have spaces built for high-energy training.

We want members who love Yoga, Pilates and mind/body training to have an environment designed specifically for them.

We want beginners to have more ways to get started.

Experienced members to have more ways to challenge themselves.

Families to have more ways to exercise together.

And everyone to have more reasons to keep their training fresh, interesting and enjoyable.

Because there is no single "perfect workout".

There is only the workout that works for you.

And sometimes what works for you on Monday isn't what you need on Friday.

Monday might be CONQUER.

Tuesday might be weights.

Wednesday might be Yoga.

Thursday might be a swim.

Friday might be Pilates.

Saturday?

Maybe you just need to stretch.

That's what a great health club should give you.

Choice.

EARLY NOVEMBER 2026

Remember that.

Because that's when the first chapter begins.

The doors open on our huge new Les Mills CONQUER™ Studio.

The doors open on our beautiful new Mind/Body Studio.

Our new Social & Recovery Area comes to life.

And West Wood Club Clontarf takes the first major step towards something we believe will completely change the fitness-class experience.

Europe's FIRST Fitness Studio Village

Two incredible new studios are almost ready.

More will follow.

And over the next six months, we'll reveal each new part of the Fitness Studio Village as it gets ready to open.

So if you think you've already seen the new West Wood Club Clontarf...

You haven't seen anything yet.
