At Fitness First, the safety of our members and staff is our number one priority. We have put an extensive range of protective measures in place (as listed above). These include (but not limited to); increased cleaning specifications, hygiene stations placed in every area of the club, adhering to social distancing guidelines, a strict “no towel, no train policy” and closure of non-essential areas. 

In addition, our staff have completed the Australian Government COVID-19 Infection and Prevention Control training, and will be issued with optional masks, disposable gloves and extensive cleaning kits ready for use.

Check whether your state's clubs are open on the Member Services Information page.

In clubs that are open, non-essential areas of the gym will be reviewed in line with state regulations. Areas that may be closed or impacted may include showers; lockers; change room facilities such as hair dryers/straighteners and scales; relaxation zones (steam room/sauna); pools and spas; Playzone; Swim School and Dance School; and common areas such as the members’ lounge. Refer to the Member Service Information page for the latest information. 

Wearing a mask is your choice and not mandatory according to the Federal Government. Some of our staff may wear masks.

Group Exercise classes will be capped in order to maintain appropriate social distancing. This will differ by class and by club. To make things easier, we have introduced an online booking system so you can secure your spot ahead of time.

In addition, class times will be spaced at least 15 minutes apart to allow for cleaning and sanitisation. On arrival, please avoid congregating around the studio entry. 

Class programming has been re-designed to avoid member interaction and sharing of equipment. We ask that members adhere to social distancing guidelines by following the floor markings within the studio for the duration of the class. 

Finally, we recommend you bring your own mat, particularly when attending Yoga and Pilates classes. Please bring only the essentials (towel, water bottle).
