New Levl didn’t happen overnight.

I spent years in London running gyms, learning the ins and outs of the fitness industry, and seeing first-hand how to get people results. Life was busy, fast, and non-stop. But if you know Lauren, you’ll know she always said one thing: “I’m going back to Cork.” And if you’re from Cork, you understand — home always calls you back.

So eventually, Lauren dragged me out of the hustle of London and back home with one big idea: to finally pursue the life long dream of opening a gym. A gym that combined the vision of building something that felt welcoming, safe, and rooted in community.

From there, it was months of planning, designing, and hard graft. Every detail mattered — from the way the training programmes are structured, to the layout of the space, to the atmosphere you feel the second you walk through the door.

What makes New Levl special is many things but the scientific, 12-week block approach to training that actually works, and a community that already feels like family. Members encourage each other, celebrate small wins, and prove every day that fitness is for everyone.

This isn’t just a gym. It’s the dream we carried from London back to Cork. And seeing it come alive has been nothing short of amazing.

And here’s the thing — this is only the start !

It wasn’t easy — but that’s what makes it special. Every detail has a story behind it, and every part of the space was built with purpose.Seeing it all come together, and then watching our first members walk through the door, made all the hard work worth it.

Have a look at our journey so farr !

Love Josh and Lauren
