How it started
Catalyst Personal Training was founded by Tony Oakley and opened its doors for the first time to the people of Cirencester on the 9th February 2015.
Having transformed an uninspiring warehouse on an industrial estate into a bespoke Personal Training and Group Training facility with all the latest equipment, Catalyst has gone from strength to strength.
Catalyst wasn’t finished there…
In May 2017, founder Tony and his cousin Scott joined forces to open an additional facility next door known as Catalyst Group Training.
The timetable increased to 36 sessions a week and memberships were introduced. This is also when Catalyst’s signature group session, Barbell Club was added to the timetable.
Catalyst Sports Performance has gone from strength to strength with our team working with numerous sporting individuals and teams.
This has included Team GB rowers, equestrians, Gloucester Rugby youth players, footballers and a racing driver.
Our athletes success has Josh Gray go on to represent the England U18’s Rugby Team and Jamie Chadwick become the first ever female to win a British Formula 3 race.
In April 2019 the 2 businesses joined forces and is now known as Catalyst Training.
There are now 37 Group Sessions available every week, open gym availability and a team of 11 Personal Trainers to make sure we can help you achieve what ever goals you have.
It really does appear that the general public have been voting with their feet on this one and the lively, results-driven atmosphere that exists at Catalyst is inspiring whether you are just starting out on your fitness journey, a regular gym buff or a top athlete. It’s just a really great place to work out with an awesome community spirit.
