HYROX at Exmouth:
A Powerful Launch Event to Remember
Saturday 1st November marked an exciting milestone for LED Exmouth Leisure Centre as we officially launched our brand-new HYROX affiliation —and what a launch it was and thank you to EDDC and the Prosperity Fund!
Across three energising 30-minute sessions, we welcomed 60 enthusiastic participants, all eager to experience the unique HYROX blend of performance-based training, functional fitness, and community spirit. The energy was electric from the moment the doors opened, and it didn’t fade for a second.
A Fantastic HYROX Instructor Team
Our HYROX programme is being led by an inspiring team of instructors — Chelle, Chloe, and Ty. Their combined expertise, passion, and ability to motivate athletes of all abilities is at the heart of what makes HYROX in Exmouth so special.
Leading the launch event was our fabulous instructor Chelle, whose encouragement and enthusiasm truly brought the HYROX ethos to life. Whether participants were seasoned athletes or complete beginners, Chelle created an environment that was welcoming, motivating, and—most importantly—fun.
HYROX: Accessible to All Levels
One of the key reasons HYROX has become such a global fitness movement is its accessibility. HYROX is designed for all levels of fitness — from individuals taking their first steps into functional training to experienced athletes looking to challenge themselves in new ways. Every workout can be scaled, every station is adaptable, and the supportive community makes it easy for anyone to get involved.
A Workout That Delivered
Each session took participants through a taste of the HYROX format: challenging, dynamic, and completely scalable. The feedback spoke for itself. Participants described the workouts as:
- “Brilliantly challenging”
- “Motivating from start to finish”
- “Exactly what I’ve been looking for”
- “Such a great atmosphere!”
Seeing everyone push themselves, support each other, and finish with a smile was exactly what we hoped to create.
A Little Something Extra
To celebrate the launch, every participant received a goody bag to take home—because who doesn’t love a little reward after a hard-earned sweat?
Made Possible Through Community Support
This exciting launch event was made possible thanks to the support of East Devon District Council and the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, as well as a fantastic collaboration with LED Active Communities. Their commitment to improving local wellbeing and expanding fitness opportunities has helped bring HYROX to Exmouth, and we are incredibly grateful for their partnership.
