I’m Andy, and together with my wife and co-founder, Marina, we built Urban Gym with one clear vision:

To create a space where people feel genuinely welcome, fully supported, and truly inspired.

For Marina, that vision shines not only in our community but in the very look and feel of the gym—she’s the creative mind and graphic designer behind our brand, making sure our space feels as good as it performs.

With over 20 years in the fitness industry—managing leisure centres, coaching strength & conditioning for sports teams, and competing as a professional athlete—I’ve seen the industry evolve, but the core challenges people face with fitness haven’t changed. My own journey took an unexpected turn when Lyme disease ended my professional sporting career after a four-year battle.

That experience became the driving force behind Urban Gym:

a place built on empathy, expertise, and the belief that fitness should lift every aspect of your life. Here, we live by our train for life ethos.

Our professional coaching team shares that same belief. They are not just coaches—they are passionate craftsmen and women of their trade, taking pride in every session and striving to inspire the members they serve. Together, we’ve created more than a gym.

We’re a community where you can push for your goals, make genuine connections, and leave each day feeling stronger—inside and out.
