Pulse Group completes £4m leisure centre redevelopment
POSTED 01 Mar 2017 . BY Deven Pamben
Go! Active at The Arc has two new group exercise studios
The Pulse Group has completed the design, build and gym installation work at Go! Active at The Arc in Clowne, Derbyshire.

Pulse was appointed as Bolsover District Council’s strategic leisure development partner in 2015 and has been responsible for all aspects of the £4m (US$4.9, €4.7m) extension project.

The facility now boasts a new 25m swimming pool, a children’s pool and flume, a Play Kingdom, new wet, village changing rooms, a thermal suite complete with steam room, sauna, ice fountain and snail shower, as well as a café, in the 21,108sq ft (1,961sq m) extension.

Existing fitness facilities have also been expanded, with two new group exercise studios and a cycling studio kitted out with 20 Keiser bikes.

The fitness suite has been extended to a 100-station gym, with cardiovascular, strength and plate-loaded lines from Pulse Fitness.

The gym also features a bespoke functional training rig, and all equipment is fitted with Pulse’s tracking and member management software PulseMove.

“We are delighted to have opened this fantastic facility, following a successful working partnership with Bolsover District Council,” said Chris Johnson, Pulse managing director. “Go! Active is truly a leisure facility fit for the whole community and we are thrilled to see so many people walking through the doors already.”

A preview weekend saw more than 6,000 visitors pass through the doors, and membership sits at more than 3,100.
