Started by
a Coach.
Built by a
Community.
Chris started EP in 2014 with a degree in Sport Recreation from Lincoln University, a background in strength and conditioning, and a simple belief: that people deserve better than what most gyms offer.
Not random workouts dressed up as programming. Not machines lined up in silence. Not another place where you're left to figure it out alone. EP was built from day one around coached, structured, community-driven training — and it still is.
What started as a small group has grown into one of Christchurch's most loyal fitness communities. Members who joined in the first year are still here. That's not a coincidence — it's the culture.
Every decision at EP — the programming, the pricing, the way the gym runs — comes back to one question: does this make our members better? If the answer is yes, we do it. If not, we don't.
