Gymbox London Covent Garden

Now Covent Garden GYMBOX is closing, where are all the gays moving to? Gutted that the sauna and shower fun which took place there is no more.

Yeah, it’s so sad. I will miss it terribly but there’s good times to be had in E&C, Bank, Victoria and Old St though. It’s fun to try somewhere new.

 

[Sauna And Steam]

That's a shame. I used to visit occasionally for classes - though I could never remember my way around the place!

When I was a member Holborn would be packed at peak times, it'll be more so now.

As far as i can tell there are gymbox everywhere. If you are ever in the elephant and castle area i swear about 50% of grindr profiles have a pic of the guy in gymbox elephant and castle. I guess the gays are being sensible. its way too expensive to live in soho and covent garden so now they are migrating to fill areas like elephant and castle after the original residents have been priced out

Are changing patterns in urban living resulting in a gym-focused migration? Gymbox's rise in Elephant and Castle could signal a shift in where people choose to settle. Economic factors may be behind this change, as traditional LGBTQ neighborhoods become less affordable. Could this signify urban evolution, with communities adapting to changing circumstances while preserving fitness and well-being as a focus?
