Are you the owner of Pirate Fitness?
Pirate Fitness is Witney's oldest and most cherished community-led warehouse gym, set up back in 2004. What makes Pirate Fitness remarkable is that it runs as a not-for-profit organisation, focused on giving back to the community. Located at Bridge Street Mills, which used to be a spinning and weaving factory, Pirate Fitness has turned it into a health hub with a variety of wellness services.
Inside Pirate Fitness, members will find more than just a gym. There are Yoga studios, Pilates classes, Sports Therapy, Massage, Supplements, and even Martial Arts. The gym itself is well-equipped with top-notch gear, including Hammer Strength machines, C2 rowers, Ski Ergs, Stair Masters, Cross-trainers, Treadmills, Upright and Seated bikes, plus a good mix of plated machines, cable weight machines, and free weights. No matter what your fitness goals are, Pirate Fitness has what you need.
The gym offers different memberships to suit people of all ages and backgrounds. There are teen memberships for those aged 13 and above, as well as special options for those who are 60+ or qualify for concessions like Blue light, Military, or Student. Pirate Fitness wants everyone in the community to have access to fitness.
Members have nothing but good things to say about the gym. Kent Baldwin, a regular, says it’s a place that has everything you might want. He values the range of equipment and the friendly, professional staff. For Kent, Pirate Fitness has been more than a gym; it’s been a lifeline during his mental health journey. The supportive and welcoming atmosphere has been crucial for his recovery.
Imogen Battams, another member, points out the strong sense of community at Pirate Fitness. She feels at ease asking both staff and fellow members for advice and tips. The gym is proud of its friendly and inclusive environment where everyone feels welcome.
