The new gym launching at Goodwood Health & Wellbeing within The Goodwood Hotel is no ordinary gym. It has been designed for smarter training, deeper recovery and long-term wellness, reflecting the Estate’s belief in the body’s natural ability to heal and strengthen itself. This is set to become the South Coast’s most comprehensive hub for personalised health, where technology, expert coaching and nature converge.
“At Goodwood, we’re reimagining what it means to live well,” says Jen Evans-Brewer, Head of Health & Wellbeing. “We’re creating spaces where intelligent technology and expert practitioners work together to deliver truly personalised, holistic health. Our goal is to empower members, guests, and our local community to feel better, live stronger, and thrive, no matter who or where they are.”
The new Technogym suite sets a new standard for fitness in the Southeast, with tools designed to give members real-time insights and measurable results:
These systems are paired with Goodwood’s expert team of trainers, physiotherapists, nutritionists and health specialists and practitioners, creating a 360, data-driven approach to personalised wellness.
A New Era of Community-Led Fitness
The future of health is about connection, not just exercise. Attendance at community-led fitness events is booming, with hybrid competitions like HYROX, ATHX, and DEKA seeing surges worldwide. Running participation has risen 130%, while fitness event attendance overall has jumped 146%, evidence of a growing desire for goal-driven, social fitness experiences.
Goodwood is responding with a gym designed as a 'Fourth Space': beyond home, beyond work, beyond convenience, a space built around intention and community. Whether you are a focussing on longevity and strength training, or a craving a space for training, competition and community, there’s a place here for every health and wellbeing journey.
A Holistic, 360° Approach to Health
The new gym sits within a broader ecosystem of personalised health. Alongside the Technogym suite, members will be able to access:
Alongside the gym and range of services, Health Club members and Hotel visitors can take part in a full range of holistic and curated group classes and wellness experiences including a wide range of yoga, Pilates, spin cycle, HIIT and resistance training, alongside Pranayama breath and sound bath sessions.
This is preventative health at a level previously only accessible to professional athletes, all set against the restorative backdrop of 11,000 acres of West Sussex countryside.
Wellbeing That Works For You
From intelligent strength and cardio training to community workouts, recovery and personalised care, every element of Goodwood Health & Wellbeing has been curated to help members and hotel guests train smarter, recover faster and live stronger. The new facilities at the Goodwood Health Club are more than a gym, it’s a hub for long-term vitality, functional strength and holistic health and wellness.
“We’re building a space where fitness, performance, recovery, and lifestyle come together,” adds Jen. “Here, technology informs your training, experts guide your progress, and the community inspires you to achieve your goals.”
The launch of Goodwood’s new gym marks the next chapter in a living legacy of health, one where intelligent training, personalised wellness and community converge to create the most complete health and wellbeing experience on the South Coast.
The new gym and Health & Wellbeing hub facilities will be open to Health Club members, gym members and The Goodwood Hotel guests from Monday 5 January 2026.
