We are part of the Virgin group of companies worldwide and launched our Australian business in 2008 with one club, five studios and a dedicated team of just 50 people. Today, we have a team of nearly 1,000 people and we're building a collection of iconic locations in Sydney and Melbourne.

Our groundbreaking flagship Social Wellness Club is set to open in May 2025, and will feature an 'all day concept' with a full state-of-the-art gym, group exercise classes, reformer pilates, cold plunge, sauna and spa. It will also feature the latest innovation and services, including recovery zones, sound bath, business lounge, co-working spaces, health food café, personal trainers, instructors, nutritionists and other health professionals.

Ü Health aims to make healthy eating tasty, easy and accessible, and is now perfectly placed within the Virgin Active Group to hit Aussie shores. Our menu's made to fit all kinds of diets with easy on-the-go options and always a healthy variety of choices.
