This was one of the first gyms to open on the Costa del Sol in the early 1980's.
It has only changed hands once in all that time. It is one of the friendliest clubs in the area
and conveniently situated right in the centre of Fuengirola, next to underground parking. The gym
is professionally run by a husband and wife team (he is English and she is Spanish). The place has
undergone extensive refurbishment and expansion, with considerable investment in state-of-the-art
facilities, including Jacuzzi, saunas, new changing rooms, and added exercise rooms. A superb three
tiered room dedicated to indoor bike (Spinning) classes has been constructed and there is also now
a new, large and airy Pilates/Yoga/Thai Chi room. The Pilates classes by fully qualified Stott
Pilates expert, Sara Osorio. There is a ‘Transformer’ Pilates machine for one-to-one training.
Other classes are; Kick Boxing, Ju-Jitsu and Hip Hop, aerobic, step, etc. There is such a wide
range of classes (timetabled from 8:15 a.m. to 9:30 p.m.) that it would be best to contact the
gym direct for details.

if you need help. There is a sauna, steam bath and Jacuzzi room
which is open alternate days for male and female members. There

of Mijas. This gym has been going for many years and has a mainly
Spanish clientele, with just a few British members. It has been
recently refurbished and is clean and quite friendly, but with limited
space and equipment. It has the usual cardiovascular machines and
some free weights, but little space for stretching. There is one

Although this is a Spanish run gym, some to the
instructors are English. The gym itself is more geared towards weight

etc. The owner of this gym is a medical doctor and body builder
from Venezuela and he speaks very good English. The gym is in a
