Our pick: The top 5 HIIT studios in the UK

High-intensity interval training has been a fitness staple for the past decade. It’s even featured in the top five in The ACSM’s Worldwide Survey of Fitness Trends for the past seven years running.

But where can you find the best HIIT classes in the UK?

By using unique tech integrations and focusing on the member experience, our clients have innovated the delivery of HIIT classes. Read on to find out our top five HIIT studios that we've worked on in the UK.

Gym Group | Fiit class integration

We worked with The Gym Group to create an immersive fitness studio experience, making high quality and experiential group exercise accessible to the masses.

The Gym Group use best-in-class audio-visual tech and custom-coded integrations with Fiit, the #1 rated fitness app, to deliver live and on-demand classes in a way never before seen.

Their one-of-a-kind studio mimics the lighting and audio sequences shown on the Fiit class content, giving members the impression that they are in the same studio as the instructors.

Bringing an immersive fitness experience to their members that had only been available in high-end boutique gyms fits perfectly with The Gym Group’s mission statement; ‘Breaking down barriers to fitness for all’.
