énergie to open flagship club in Qatar
The énergie Group will open its largest ever fitness club on 1 October. Set in the Villaggio Mall in Doha, Qatar, the US$7m (£4.5m), purpose-built club measures 3,716sq m (40,000sq ft).
To respect local culture, énergie Villaggio will feature an énergie Fitness Club for men on one side and an énergie Fitness Club for ladies on the other, with SHOKK énergie - the kids' fitness franchise offering - in the middle.
Facilities will include a boxing studio, three group exercise fitness studios and a spa area.
The club will be fitted out with the latest Precor, Life Fitness and Hammer Strength equipment.
There will also be a valet service, prayer rooms and ablution rooms.
This latest club follows on from the franchise's first opening in Qatar: a £2m site that opened near Doha Airport in February.
Jan Spaticchia, énergie Group CEO, says: "We're delighted with the response from local people.
"Having opened the airport club and effectively translated the énergie brand into Arabic, we are successfully bringing the UK model over to the Middle East.
