Gym & Fitness

The fully air-conditioned 4000 sq. ft gym at the 4-star Claregalway Hotel boasts state of the art equipment from leading top brands such as Matrix, Life Fitness and PRECOR equipment and is the perfect place for fitness enthusiasts of all levels.

Gym

Each member receives an initial fitness assessment, individual fitness programme and instruction on how to use each piece of equipment. We have pledged to make our gym a no judgement zone. Members of all ages, shapes, sizes and backgrounds are welcome in our gym and our qualified fitness instructors are here to help you achieve your fitness goals.

You can transform your life by being physically active. Exercise helps with not only your physical health but your mental health. It releases chemicals in your brain (endorphins) that have a positive effect on your mood and your body. It doesn’t take huge changes. Start small. Just keep moving, whatever your age or ability. You’ll feel better, have more energy and even live longer.

Our experienced staff are here to educate you on your physical fitness whether the focus be weight loss, toning, muscle gain or simply to help get your fitness routine back on track.

Fitness Classes

We offer a full range of fitness classes every week to suit all fitness levels, including yoga, Zumba, swimming classes, Pilates and more. We offer a wide variety of instructor-led classes as well as internationally renowned Les Mills virtual classes. Our fitness philosophy is based on not only physical wellbeing but also mental wellbeing.

Fitness Classes can boost motivation and create accountability, taking part in the class helps push your workout to achieve more. With music playing and everyone else working with you, sharing in the struggle and the success, it can feel more like a party than a workout. The entire experience of a group exercise class can lead to higher endorphin release than with other exercise. Endorphins are those feel-good hormones and the combine effect of the music and the effort you put in and the fact you are in a group of people doing exercise, helps your body to release more! It’s why you come out of a class really buzzing.

A fitness instructor will be available at all times to offer advice and answer any questions you may have regarding our fitness classes.
