Barnet Copthall Introduces Quiet Gym Sessions for a Calmer Workout Environment

Barnet Copthall Leisure Centre is launching new Quiet Gym sessions, offering a more peaceful and focused atmosphere for gym users looking to enjoy a less stimulating environment.

The sessions take place every Wednesday and Friday from 2:00pm to 3:00pm. During these times, background music will be turned off, the coloured zone lighting in the ‘Zone’ area will be switched off, and a staff member will be available to provide support if needed.

The initiative is designed for anyone who prefers a calmer, quieter workout space — whether to focus better, unwind during the day, or simply enjoy a break from the usual gym energy.

Barnet resident, Quincy Thomas was the driving force behind the introduction of this new quiet activity, Quincy comments “I’m so happy that Better gym made these adjustments as I am hypersensitive to sound, light and smell. Now it won’t be as challenging for me and others with similar conditions. Thank you for listening”
