In February, we shared the story of Arnold Leisure Centre’s move to introduce Hydrohex, revolutionising aqua fitness offering in Gedling.
Little did we know the incredible impact it would have on their business and their community.
Fast forward to today, Arnold Leisure Centre has emerged as the shining star of Gedling Borough Council’s health clubs.
Hydrohex’s Impact on Arnold Leisure Centre: A Success Story
During the initial six-month trial, the site saw an average of 8 Hydrohex users per day. Today, Arnold Leisure Centre is issuing a staggering 18 Hydrohex tickets per day, showcasing the growing popularity of their new aqua concept. And that is still with just one class per day.
This surge in demand not only showcases the popularity of Hydrohex but also underscores its contribution to the center’s overall success.
During the time Hydrohex has been in use at the Arnold LC, their memberships have grown 50% from November 2022 to October 2023. Johann Polak, Fitness Promotions Officer at Gedling Borough Council, attests to Hydrohex’s positive impact: “Hydrohex has vitalised Arnold LC, becoming a key selling point for new memberships.”
Johann Polak also emphasises the seamless collaboration with Hydrohex.
“The service is amazing and has really revitalised Arnold LC. Setting up the system was easy, and whenever we’ve had any issues or needed a hand, Hydrohex has always been just a phone call away.”

Real Stories of Transformation
The success of Hydrohex goes beyond numbers, as evidenced by comments from the users.
One passionate member shares:
“Joining the leisure centre and trying Hydrohex triggered a switch in my brain. I’ve shed 18 pounds, become more motivated, and achieved fitness milestones – all thanks to that first Hydrohex session. Even my 53-year-old mom, who was hesitant before, now joins me weekly.”

Evolution from February to October
Arnold Leisure Centre’s journey with Hydrohex began in February, marking the first UK site to embrace this aquatic fitness innovation.
The expansion to virtual aqua fitness classes and the introduction of Hydrohex have proven pivotal in doubling the scheduled classes, meeting community demand, and enhancing pool usage during off-peak times.
“It couldn’t have come at a better time for us. Hydrohex is proving effective at getting people in local community groups exercising in the pool. Coupled with the nationwide shortage of instructors and strong demand for aqua fitness, Hydrohex is the right service at the right time.”

In conclusion, Hydrohex has helped transform Arnold Leisure Centre to a thriving fitness hub. Beyond the impressive numbers, it has enabled personal transformations.
Arnold LC stands as a shining example of the positive impact Hydrohex can have on a community’s health and well-being.
