Commitment to Local Community
from Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Port Stephens and Hunter Valley | INTOUCH MAGAZINE DEC-JAN 24' ISSUE
Urth Fitness, formerly known as Planet Fitness, emerged as a family venture in 1994 with a single Lambton location. Remaining a family-run business, it stands as Newcastle's most affordable gym. Witnessing remarkable growth since its humble beginnings, Urth has expanded to three locations and garnered a community of more than 10,000 wonderful members across Newcastle. Some of these members have been part of this journey since the beginning, witnessing the establishment of Spa Rooms, the expansion of Group Fitness to 75 weekly classes, and, of course, the huge rebrand last year.
Urth’s most notable commitment to the Newcastle community is that even though 29 years have passed (and the cost of living continues to creep higher and higher!), they have not and will not budge on price. They will always have a membership that starts from $5 a week because everyone should have access to improving their health and wellness. They believe that affordable access to health and wellness should be a universal right, not a luxury.
Summed up in three words—welcoming, community-oriented, and affordable—Urth Fitness's philosophy centres on creating an environment where everyone feels at home and embraced from the moment they enter. Embodying a judgment-free policy, their community not only welcomes but actively ensures that everyone feels comfortable and included. And, of course, affordability is their ongoing promise and something that will never change.
The Urth team understands that walking into a gym can feel daunting. At times, our minds can be our own worst enemy, and motivation is tough to muster. If you are on the fence, head down to Urth Fitness for a free trial and let one of their friendly membership consultants take you on a tour of the facilities and tell you about the amazing Urth community and judgementfree atmosphere.
If you have ever felt intimidated walking into a gym, if you want a place that gives you recovery options post-workout, a place that greets you with welcoming, smiling faces, or just a gym where you feel you belong – then Urth is the health and wellness gym, for U.
