MEET GEORGIE! 🫶

About five months ago, we quietly introduced mat Pilates to BARCH. And what a brilliant addition it’s been! Every Tuesday at 8am and Saturday at 9am, Georgie brings something a little different to our timetable. And if you think Pilates is just lying on a mat doing a few stretches, think again! 😂

It’s challenging, it’s enjoyable, and it’s incredible seeing the progress people have made in just a few months. We’ve also introduced our Pilates & Juice Socials, bringing people together for a Sunday morning of movement, a juice and a good catch-up. First one is this Sunday!

We’re genuinely proud of the variety we offer at BARCH.

SWEAT: Strength & conditioning
LIFT: Strength training
MOVE: Mat Pilates

Different sessions, different benefits, all under one roof.

We really believe we’ve got everything you need to look after your health and fitness within our four walls. And the best bit? Brilliant coaches who genuinely care about the people they’re teaching.

Georgie, we’re lucky to have you! Pilates is included in our unlimited membership, and everyone is welcome to give it a go.

NO EGO TRAINING. ALWAYS 💯

Yesterday was so much fun aye?!!

We’re not a boxing gym. We just love moving our bodies in different ways and having some fun with it. Once a month, leads us for a Sunday morning of boxing. Learn a few things, get a proper sweat on and have a laugh with the people around you.

You don’t need to have boxed before. Come and give it a go. 🥊

From 5am to 7:30pm, we’ve got 21 coached sessions at BARCH tomorrow, with three sessions running at once at certain times. 19 adult sessions and 2 youth.Every single session includes lifting weights. Some of you need to train before the house wakes up. Some get a window during the working day. Others can only get here in the evening.

Having options matters. You can enjoy training, know it makes you feel better and still struggle to fit it in. Our job is to make that a little easier.

Find your session on Mindbody. First one’s on us.

This morning felt like what life should be about.

We held our first men’s morning with Lloyd Ashley , and honestly, I had no idea how it would go.

I’d seen gyms in America and Wales doing something similar, including Robin Sowden-Taylor in Cardiff with ION Fitness (Llanishen) , and wanted to bring it to BARCH. I just wasn’t sure how.

Half an hour of weights to start. Full gym, everyone chatting, good buzz. Then upstairs for coffee and a conversation with Lloyd.

There was no pressure to share your struggles. We listened, chatted and picked up ways to look after ourselves and support the people around us. The conversation went a bit further than the usual “How are you?” “Yeah, good.”

Blokes spending time together. Phones away. Having proper conversations. It sounds simple, but I came away feeling incredibly proud of what we’d brought together.

Thank you, Lloyd, and every bloke who came along and gave it a go. I loved this morning. More of this at BARCH. 🖤

THE WINTER OSCARS OF BARCH ARE BACK! Our biggest social of the year, and probably my favourite night on the BARCH calendar!

Friday 4th December. One room. 122 people. Christmas dinner, the BARCH awards, a live band and a very good night out. We’ve already sold over 70 tickets, which is brilliant!

For anyone who hasn’t been before, swipe through and have a look at last year’s party. We put a huge amount of effort into this evening, and it’s always worth it.

A few things worth knowing:

🎄 You don’t have to be a BARCH member.
🥂 Partners, friends and former members are all welcome.
👊 You don’t need to know anyone.
🎸 The Dance Effect are back for another year!

And importantly…

🎟️ £55 until 31st October.
🎟️ £65 from 1st November.

We’re not making any money from the tickets. The price simply covers the cost of putting the evening on.

We bang on about community at BARCH, but nights like this are exactly why.

People who train at completely different times, who might never normally meet, all coming together for one evening.

Friday 4th December | 7pm – Midnight
📍 Pagoda Room, Old Deer Park, Richmond

122 tickets available. Once we’re full, we’re full!

WE’VE GOT 82+ CLASSES A WEEK AND THE MOST EXPERIENCED COACHES IN LONDON BUT SOMEONE JOINED US FOR THE PARKING. 😂

And I absolutely love that. Not because of our coaching, our programming or our community. Because they could park their car. And the more I think about it, the more sense it makes.

We spend so much time in the fitness industry talking about the best training methods, the best equipment, the best facilities and the best programmes.

But how often do we talk about making it easier for people to actually turn up? Most people have about 50 minutes to train. They’ve got jobs, kids, families and a hundred other things going on.

The last thing they need is another obstacle between them and getting a workout done. It’s a big reason why we offer over 82 coached sessions every week. Early mornings, lunchtimes, evenings and weekends. And yes, two hours of free parking!

Because you can have the best programme in the world, but if you can’t consistently get there, what’s the point? Maybe we should spend less time trying to make gyms more impressive and more time making them easier to use.

The easier it is to turn up, the more often you’ll train. And consistency is where the results come from. Something worth thinking about when choosing a gym. 👊
