Equinox operates 107 full-service, luxury clubs in major cities, including New York, LA, London, Toronto and Vancouver offering movement, nutrition, regeneration and community.

Its three London clubs in Kensington, Bishopsgate and Mayfair (E St James's) have had a challenging time through the pandemic, with losses reported for 2021 of £11.866 million and £17.743 million for 2022, with the company reportedly taking steps to extract itself from a number of other leases.

The business is owned by real estate giant, Related Companies.

Equinox has also embarked on developing hotels, with the first opening in New York's Hudson Yards development in 2019.

Although it was rumoured Related might have put Equinox Hotels up for sale, it has just signed for a second location in Saudi Arabia at the super-luxe Red Sea development.
