Dorking Sports Centre Gym Reopening
Members returning to the gym in the New Year will find a dramatically improved fitness environment, here at Dorking Sports centre as we prepare to officially reopen on 2nd January following months of extensive refurbishment.
The project, which represents a significant investment in both space and equipment, promises a completely upgraded experience designed to meet the growing needs of the community, and we appreciate the patience of our customers during this time.
One of the most notable changes is the introduction of brand-new TechnoGym cardio machines, including state-of-the-art treadmills, step machines, and exercise bikes. These machines offer smoother performance and innovative digital features, providing users with enhanced tracking, improved comfort, and a more enjoyable workout.
The gym has also undergone a major expansion, with its floor space increased by one-third. This remarkable transformation was made possible by repurposing an area that previously housed the changing rooms, allowing the gym to reclaim the space and reimagine it as part of the main fitness floor. As a result, members now have significantly more room to move freely, train safely, and exercise in comfort - particularly during busy periods.
As part of the redesign, a newly created and fully equipped weights area has been introduced, giving strength-training enthusiasts access to modern free weights, benches, racks, and resistance equipment. Whether members are just beginning their fitness journey or pushing toward advanced performance goals, the upgraded space offers the right tools and environment to support every level of training.
Alongside equipment upgrades, the refurbishment includes ongoing redecoration work. While this may continue into the early reopening period, it will not disrupt workouts, ensuring members can continue their routines as normal. Once completed, these finishing touches will create an even more inviting and motivating atmosphere, with fresh décor and improved aesthetics aimed at inspiring every visit.
Looking ahead, further improvements are already planned. In early 2026, work is scheduled to begin on the gym studio area to install a fully accessible changing and shower room. This addition will support the facility’s commitment to inclusivity, ensuring all members, regardless of mobility or personal requirements, can exercise confidently and comfortably.
