Why Bridge Fitness?

• Exclusive, appointment-only studio - work with fully assessed, committed clients (no random drop-ins).

• Boutique coaching environment - small group sessions (2-9 women) for high-quality, personalised coaching.

• Be part of something bigger - lead the growth of Brighton’s first women-only strength studio, with a Wellness Recovery Lab (sauna + ice bath) coming soon.

About Us:

Bridge Fitness is Brighton’s first boutique all-female strength training studio, designed to empower women through strength, connection, and expert coaching.

Our beautifully designed space features arched walkways, calming aesthetics, and immaculate training areas that inspire focus and calm. Sessions are small and personalised (2-9 women max), ensuring real coaching, real progress.

But what truly makes us special is the vibe:

• Good tunes always playing

• Chatty, inclusive atmosphere where women feel comfortable, confident, and welcome

• A community that celebrates together—from coffee catch-ups to after-hours social nights and wellness workshops

And with our state-of-the-art Wellness Recovery Lab (sauna + ice bath) coming soon, we’re taking recovery and results to the next level.

Now, we’re looking for a Head Trainer to lead the coaching, shape the culture, and drive the next stage of our growth.
