"From the moment I came across the UBX brand, I was completely sold on its ethos, relevance to today's world and overall brand execution."

"Being able to combine a lifelong passion of mine with the ability to impact people's mental and physical well-being, whilst creating employment opportunities in the very part of London I grew up in is exactly where I want to spend time and effort. From the moment I came across the UBX brand, I was completely sold on its ethos, its relevance to today's world and overall brand execution."

André Hordagoda, Owner, UBX Wembley

UBX Franchise

FITNESS REINVENTED

UBX Training was created to provide an unparalleled experience for members, by creating an environment that felt like playing team sports, was based on scientific principles, and focused on standing out in the market.

By focusing on the three main pillars of convenience, enjoyment, and results, you can be confident that by joining UBX Training as a franchisee, you will have a product that delivers what customers are looking for and is clearly differentiated from the competition.

  • Convenience: Our No Fixed Class Times model allows our members to train on their schedule
  • Enjoyment: Skill-based training, as seen in boxing clubs the world over, is proven to retain members for longer compared to standard exercise routines
  • Results: When members achieve results, it fulfils the value of their membership and generates greater loyalty to the program

"I just think boxing-based fitness is such a big thing at the moment"

"I had looked at numerous opportunities, including both traditional gym and other boutique fitness franchises. I received information on UBX and carried out a lot of research into the concept.

Boxing-based fitness is such a big thing at the moment. I identified the benefit of a model that means people aren't restricted by timetables; you just turn up; the trainers are there, and you get one-on-one time with the trainer every time you go in. For me, that was what made it really stand out from all the other opportunities.

I am excited to be one of the first in the UK to get involved with UBX. I’m looking forward to helping to make it a big success and to start building the brand here in the UK in the same way it’s been built in Australia and New Zealand."

Neil Rushby, Owner UBX Sheffield
