Kinesis Gym launches in Eltham, London
A new independent gym has been opened in the Grade II Listed Coronet Cinema site in Eltham, south London.
The former Art Deco cinema, which was in use for more than 60 years before its closure in 1999 – has undergone a £500,000 restoration and is home to the new Kinesis Gym and Fitness Centre.
The 9,000sq ft (836sq m) facility features 60 pieces of cv and resistance equipment from Cybex and occupies two floors of the English heritage building.
A number of the site’s original features have been restored in the rebuild, including a glass staircase tower, Art Deco moulds and windows, lighting and a 1930s style reception and café.
Property development company iPro managed the transformation of the Coronet site, a mixed-use development which included new apartments and shops alongside the new fitness centre.
The gym is owned by the Suggars family who have roots in the Eltham area. Dan Suggars will manage the facility while brother Matthew will work as a personal trainer and will run the catering operation.
