Who are we?

Virgin Active is a globally recognised brand with over 233 clubs in 8 countries and more than 1 million members. As part of the Virgin Group founded by Sir Richard Branson, Virgin Active disrupted the UK fitness industry in 1999 by creating large health clubs offering an unprecedented number of world-class health and fitness products and services all under one roof. Virgin Active opened its first club in Australia on Sydney's Northern Beaches in 2008 and is now building an unparalleled collection of iconic locations in Sydney and Melbourne. A global industry leader for two decades, Virgin Active Australia continues to innovate by developing a more personalised gym, multi-boutique experience and mission to inspire more Aussies to live an active life.

With stunning views that include Manly beach and the Sydney skyline, our Northern Beaches club is the go-to for anyone north of the shore. Set over 2 levels and sprawling 3,820 sqm, the club features a spacious gym floor with dedicated cardio, strength and functional training areas and an outdoor training space coming soon, 5 group exercise studios and spaces for classes including Reformer Pilates, Grid Training (HIIT), Yoga, Cycle, Barre, Boxing, a sparkling 25m swimming pool, spa and sauna, club-V for the kids, and a bustling café for your post-workout treat.
