Our coaches have built a community that's warm, accountable, and nothing like any gym you have tried before. You'll get expert guidance every session, a tracking card, and a team who knows exactly where you're at each time you walk in the door.
Sessions run in the morning and the evening. There are no midday sessions.

These are the people you train with. They write your programme, they know your history, and they are on the floor with you every session.
Before your first session, a member of the EXCAPE team calls you to understand your goals and training history. Nothing is generic, your programme starts here, built around where you are right now.
A tracking card records your progress every session. You and your coach can see exactly how far you've come, no guesswork, no repeating the same session indefinitely.
EXCAPE Portmarnock runs small-group sessions where every member is coached individually. Your coach knows your name, your programme, and your progress.
A tight-knit group of Portmarnock, Malahide, and Swords members who train together and look out for each other, beyond the studio as well as inside it.
“I turned 60 last year and suffer badly with arthritis in my knees. I have been a member for almost a year now and having never stepped foot inside a gym before. I joined EXCAPE and haven’t looked back since.”
