    Pure Gym is to open its newest gym in Knaresborough tomorrow.

    The gym, which will employ nine staff, will be open from 6am to 10pm Monday to Friday and from 8am to 8pm on Saturday and Sunday.

    It will provide about 40 classes a week free to members.

    It has 220 pieces of equipment, a functional zone, a free weights area, cardio equipment and a fitness studio. Certified PTs will be available to help.

    Based on the site of the former Lidl supermarket on York Road, the gym will welcome its first customers at midday tomorrow.

    A Pure Gym spokesperson said:

    “Our newest gym will offer members high-quality, low-cost fitness facilities and provide them with access to state-of-the-art equipment to use to achieve their fitness goals whenever they choose."


    Tomorrow's opening means Knaresborough and Harrogate will both have Pure Gyms — but not Ripon. The Stray Ferret asked the company if it had any plans t open in the city.

    The spokesperson said:

    “We are always on the lookout for new sites that will enable us to provide as many people as possible with access to affordable, flexible fitness.
    "We currently don’t have any concrete plans for a site in Ripon, but will continue to keep an eye out for potential locations for our next Pure Gym.”


    Pure Gym was launched in 2009 and now has 1.2 million members and 340 UK clubs.

    It is majority owned by American private equity firm Leonard Green & Partners.
