We hope to have the new gym and fitness class spaces operational by early Autumn, we’ll provide a more exact date as the project progresses.   

This development will see the Strathearn Hall at Dewars transformed into a 100+ station fitness gym with a comprehensive range of cardio, resistance, strength, and functional training equipment. This will replicate our previous offering at Bell’s Sports Centre that was proving popular prior to the flooding.  

Yes, Matrix will be providing all new gym equipment including the revolutionary Go Series which provides the perfect starting point for those looking to dip their toes into the world of strength and circuit training. With minimal adjustments, low starting weights and smaller progressions, anyone can quite simply sit and go!  

There will be two dedicated group fitness studios offering classes such as Yoga, Pilates, BodyPump and Group Cycling. In addition, we will have a functional training space in the gym providing a great area for functional fitness classes.

Rest assured all your favourites will be included and we'll return our popular gym-based classes.  Our class programme will be under constant review and will be adapted as required.

Our fitness classes will move to Dewars Centre. There may be a very small disruption to the class programme in the first week or so, however rest assured our team are working hard to ensure a smooth transition.

Yes, group cycling classes will be included on our class programme.

Yes, we require all customers to receive an induction before using any Live Active gym. We offer online gym inductions, making it easy to get started.
