RIP Fitness take to Club La Santa for another year

RIP Fitness was first established in 1998, thanks to the direction of its founder and well-known fitness fanatic Dave McQueen. RIP fitness is a fitness organisation that offers personal training, community fitness services in the East London area and organises international holidays in the UK and abroad.

Dave firmly believes that fitness begins at home with the family, and he wanted to extend health and fitness beyond just one-on-one personal training. That’s why he created opportunities that could accommodate all family members, enabling parents and children to experience activities together.

Having developed a large network of clients and members with the help of word of mouth, his personal trainer sessions, classes, and circuits, Dave started to organise day long events and weekend breaks to encourage wider participation. These were immediately popular with members and their extended families, catering for everybody, no matter what age, ability, or interest.

RIP Fitness have been going to Club La Santa for over twenty years now. Dave stated that “his international holidays tend to be big because it’s all about the destinations. Our groups are full of people from different backgrounds, different age groups that all come together to do what they love”.

Each event is a social and fitness spectacular and provides attendees with fantastic on-site facilities, great accommodation and food, a variety of sports, dance, or fitness-based classes, due to a crammed-packed daily programme, and entertainment throughout the evening.

Dave’s customers, old and new, were all really blown away by the resort and really enjoyed the experience. Dave mentioned how much he has always enjoyed his trips to Club La Santa: “The facilities, all the different areas, different things you can offer your clients are fantastic and now since they’ve upgraded it, it’s even better!”.

Dave confirmed that the resort gives him everything he needs and much more including the social side. Indeed, every year, when he brings his fitness groups, they all sit down to have dinner together at the Pool Bar (La Piscina) and have games nights with quizzes. The social side of Club La Santa is therefore a key part of the overall experience on offer. Thanks for Dave’s connections at the resort and genuine ties with the staff, he often asks the managers to DJ at the disco! His customers all get involved and let their hair down in the evenings.

Dave highlighted just how seamless booking a trip to CLS has always been and how much he values the great relationship he has with the UK team – who know him all by name: “All I need to do is email or call and everything is booked!”

RIP Fitness are already looking forward to going back to CLS next year, with an even bigger group!
