Two former Espree fitness clubs have been refurbished and rebranded by Topnotch.

The clubs, in Blackfriars and Royal Mint Court, London were taken over by Topnotch last year, bringing the chain's total number of clubs to 20. They have been renovated to include Topnotch's themed zones - the nightclub-style PowerZone, the UV-lit Planet Spin cycling studio and now also provide the PT Maxx personal training programme.

Topnotch Blackfriars has also opened additional therapy rooms offering beauty treatments, Swedish massage, Reiki and other alternative therapies.

'I am pleased to report we continue to make excellent progress with our expansion plans,' said Topnotch chief executive, Matthew Harris. 'With the Espree acquisition we have been able to add a further two clubs to our Central London portfolio.'
