Revamped group exercise studio ready to be unveiled at Devizes Leisure Centre
The revitalised dance studio at Devizes Leisure Centre will reopen for group exercise classes next week, following a comprehensive renovation.
Due to the council's ongoing investment in its leisure facilities, the first-floor dance studio has seen significant upgrades and now boasts a modern, fresh interior, new equipment, storage, ceiling and lighting, plus re-sealed flooring. The refurbished studio will reopen on Monday 23 September.
Those who attend classes will be able to focus on their workouts without distraction, benefitting from an updated air-conditioning system, ensuring a comfortable and consistent climate.
Work is also progressing in the main fitness suite, where a new consultation room is being created, along with other fixtures, and fittings to create more modern, fit-for-purpose exercise space. Works will be completed in this area later this autumn and will see it reopen with all-new fitness equipment, plus replacement flooring and refreshed decoration. A reopening date for the refurbished fitness suite will be confirmed soon.
With works ongoing in the fitness suite and the equipment still temporarily relocated to the main hall area, life zone and fitness zone members will continue to receive a reduction in their membership by 25% for any inconvenience caused.
Cllr Ian Blair-Pilling, Cabinet Member for Leisure, said: We are really excited that this first phase of the works at Devizes Leisure Centre is now complete and our customers will be able to enjoy their exercises classes in a much more fit-for-purpose and comfortable space. The new facilities really reflect our ongoing commitment to providing high-quality and well-maintained spaces to help people lead an active lifestyle.
The works in the fitness suite are also on-target and progressing well and we hope to have that area re-open later this Autumn, meaning that, once complete, Devizes really will be a great place for local fitness enthusiasts to visit.
I want to thank the customers for their patience with the class relocations and reduction of hall space whilst the upgrade work took place, and we hope people enjoy and get the most out of their upgraded group exercise space when they visit.
