Training in Pilrig
A big gym on the Walk and yoga round the corner.
Pilrig Street once marked the boundary between Edinburgh and Leith, and the area still sits between the two. The main gym is Places Leisure Edinburgh at the Engine Yard on Leith Walk, with 70 gym stations, a studio and group classes, open from 6am on weekdays. Joolz Yoga and Santosa Yoga Studio cover yoga, ((BOUNCE)) Edinburgh runs fitness classes, and 3v2 Soccer Academy coaches football.
Pilrig Park, around the restored 17th-century Pilrig House, is the local green space, and the Balfour Street tram stop serves Pilrig's eastern edge. A park circuit before work, or a regular slot at the gym with someone who expects you, is how a habit sticks.
