Training in Loughton
Forest runs, hot yoga and fight nights.
Loughton Leisure Centre on Traps Hill is the town's Places Leisure centre, with pools, a gym, studios and an indoor cycling studio. For combat sports, Masters Academy on Langston Road runs more than 30 classes a week across kickboxing, MMA, submission wrestling and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and Dennis & Dyer Boxing Academy opened off Debden Broadway in 2020. Hot Yoga Essex on the High Road teaches Bikram, Inferno Pilates, vinyasa and yin, and New City Fitness is an independent gym.
The town borders Epping Forest to the west, and the Forest Way and the London Outer Orbital Path both pass through. To the east, much of the Roding valley is nature reserve or open parkland. Loughton AC is the local athletics club if you'd rather run in company than alone.
