RIP Fitness began life in 1998, thanks to the vision and direction of its founder Dave McQueen. With a philosophy that a healthy lifestyle begins at home with the family, he wanted to extend health and fitness beyond just one-on-one personal training, creating opportunities that could accommodate all family members, enabling parents and children to experience activities together.
Having developed a large network of clients and members with the help of word of mouth through his personal trainer sessions, classes and circuits, Dave started to organise day long events and weekend breaks to encourage wider participation. These were immediately popular with members and their extended families, catering for everybody, no matter what age, ability or interest.
Each event is a social and fitness spectacular, providing attendees with fantastic on-site facilities, great accommodation and food, a variety of sports, dance or fitness-based classes due to a crammed-packed daily programme, and entertainment throughout the evening. Over the years, the popularity and frequency of these events has grown with attendance now exceeding 700 adults and children.
Events are organised to accommodate all cultural and ethnic considerations and reflect the diverse community of Newham and Waltham Forest.
