Group Exercise Manager - Swindon 

Creating a Buzz not just another boring gym!

Buzz Gym was launched in January 2013 as a fresh, high-end, boutique-style concept in the low-cost (budget) gym sector. Buzz Gym members are proud to belong to Buzz: we aim to make them consider Buzz to be a cool, trendy, fashionable place to work out. A typical Buzz gym offers around 200 exercise stations, a full range of studio classes, large free weight and functional zones, in a unique, nightclub-style atmosphere with live DJs.

Buzz sits at the high end of the budget gym sector, with a high quality feel, full attention to detail and the friendly, personal approach normally expected from more expensive, independently-run gyms. In the evening, a Buzz gym’s cardio zone is transformed, with night club lighting, louder music and live DJs who entertain in our Buzz Gym Club Nights.
