The Most Luxe Boutique Gyms in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne

Warrior One Yoga

When you think of a gym, you probably conjure up a mental image of dark walls, open-plan weights areas and a plethora of machines that seem incredibly complicated.

Over the past few years, there has been a surge in the number of boutique gyms and studios opening in Australia. Many of these boutique gyms focus on health holistically, rather than just through a physical lens.

This is by no means an exhaustive list — it merely highlights a handful of luxe gyms and studios located in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. Some studios are currently only offering virtual classes or are closed due to COVID-19 restrictions.

Paramount Recreation Club

Located in Surry Hills, Paramount Recreation Club is a visual delight. Bringing together physical, mental and social health, Paramount offers small group classes, massage treatments and social events. There’s also a luxe kiosk that serves brekkie, lunch and snacks. You can sign up for a 10-day trial for $55, otherwise, membership starts at $45. Book classes via the Mindbody website or the app.

New week.. Rip in. It’s been nearly a month since the doors of Hustle Boxing opened back up and we’ve been blown away by the love, support and positive energy that our members and guests are bringing each and every day. Like all businesses and brands that are operating in today’s new world, we were nervous to see how we would be received post ISO – would everyone be ready to train again? Would fitness and community still hold as much relevance with everything else going on? Would you guys even turn up at all? Thankfully, you’ve shown us that it’s a resounding YES to all of the above and as we sit here working on ways to bring even more of the Hustle Boxing experience to you, we want to say THANK YOU for the support you have all shown us during these crazy times. Without every person who has come through our doors, thrown down on our bags and shown us the love, we wouldn’t be where we are today. If we mean something to you, tell us 🙏🏻🙏🏻 #MADEOFMORE #HUSTLEBOXING #THANKYOU – – – – – – – – – – – #fitness #sydney #pottspoint #boxing #hiit #functionaltraining #studio #studiofitness #music #beats #grouptraining #premium #luxuryfitness #dayspa #hustle #postworkout #aquabags #smiles #tunes #beautiful #bondi #sydneyfitness #trainer #elizabethbay #darlinghurst #pic #speedwork
