David Lloyd has closed its only standalone Blaze studio in Birmingham and moved members to nearby David Lloyd clubs which have club-in-club Blaze studios.
It's likely the move marks the end – at least for now – of plans to roll out Blaze as a standalone brand, as announced in November 2019.
The company will continue to offer Blaze within David Lloyd clubs.
The closure is seen as a rationalisation as the brand consolidates its operations to build profitability following pandemic disruption.
