Industry veterans launch Go! Health to “recapture spirit of health clubs”

Fitness industry veterans, Phil Hall and Pete Evans, have launched a new club that they say aims to “recapture the original spirit of health clubs”.

Called Go! Health, the venture will, the business partners say, place “service, support and social connection” at the heart of the member experience and has been specifically designed for adults looking for a supportive and personalised wellness journey.

Go! Health will also offer exercise referral schemes, in collaboration with a host of local health practitioners and NHS service providers. The service is supported by ReferAll.

The first Go! Health opened in Woking, Surrey, in January 2026 and provides a holistic and personalised experience focusing on movement and fitness, recovery and sleep, mindset, nutrition and healthy eating, lifestyle coaching and social wellbeing.

The “non-intimidating” club offers a wide range of services including health screening, behaviour changecoaching, body composition analysis, lifestyle consultations, cryotherapy, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, genetic and epigenetic testing.

All services are included in the membership fee, with no joining costs. Combined, Hall and Evans have more than 60 years of fitness management and club operations experience – which they plan to make full use of.

“When I started my fitness career in the mid-1990s, there were lots of instructors on the gym floor providing comprehensive onboarding and regular reviews, as well as general engagement and support for members,” said Hall, whose former roles include MD of the énergie Fitness franchise group. That’s all gone now. If you want that level of service today, you have to pay for personal training, which is a real shame.”

Go! Health looks to build relationships with health partners, including GPs, the NHS, chiropractors, physiotherapists, nutritionists and local care homes to deliver structured interventions.
