New manager Deith Bridges brings with him a wealth of experience in running an independent health club having previously run a club of a similar size. "The clubs new name - part of the re brand - will be Physique," said Deith, talking about the changes ahead and the new philosophy he and his team of staff will be working to. "The re branding of the club is very simple. A lot of people think we're a boxing gym and although we can still cater for that, the club has improved and enlarged so much over the years that we're now proud to call ourselves a health club." "Our Foxfit ladies only training area is proving very popular and that will continue under the overall umbrella of Physique." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Boxfit Health Club was founded in 2008 by Darlington businessmen David and Henry Ward.
