3d leisure designs commercial gyms, spas and leisure facilities for employers, hotels, property developers and independent operators. We size the space, specify the equipment and plan how the facility will run once it opens.
Most projects begin with a feasibility study. We model likely usage, benchmark against comparable sites and set a capital budget before any layout is drawn. The design that follows is built around those numbers rather than around a floor plan.
The same team goes on to run facilities like these every day, across workplace, hospitality, residential and school. Design decisions get tested against how the space will actually be staffed and used.
A commercial gym design project can start from an empty shell, from a floor plate that has been earmarked but not drawn, or from a tired facility that needs replanning. The scope is set around where you are starting from.
Gym fit-out follows the design. We specify the equipment, manage procurement and installation, and hand over a facility that is ready to open rather than one that still needs commissioning.
Most gym design companies stop at handover. We do not have to. The team that draws the layout is the team that goes on to run facilities like it, so a commercial gym design gets tested against how it will actually be staffed, cleaned, programmed and paid for.
Cost depends on the size of the space, the equipment specification and how much building work is involved. A feasibility study produces a costed concept and a realistic budget before you commit to a design. That is usually the cheapest way to find out what a project will actually cost.
Gym design covers the concept, the layout, the equipment specification and how the space will be used. Gym fit-out is the physical work that follows: building, services, flooring, installation and handover. We take on either, or both.
Yes. Corporate gym design carries constraints a public gym does not. Shared building services, security and access, limited floor plates, and a facility that serves a whole workforce rather than a paying membership. We plan for those from the start. See workplace wellbeing.
Yes. We design and manage hotel spas, thermal suites and treatment areas. The spa gets planned around how it will be staffed and how it will earn, not only around how it looks.
You can hand it over to us if you want to. A number of clients bring us in to design a facility and keep us on to operate it. We employ our instructors and managers directly rather than using self-employed contractors.

Home / Other services / Training service
Over 35 years of operational expertise combined with nationally recognised qualifications, delivering practical, accredited training that helps organisations raise standards, improve safety, and develop high-performing teams.
With over 35 years of operational experience at the forefront of the leisure industry, 3d leisure has developed a deep understanding of what truly drives safe, successful, and high-performing facilities.
Across decades of managing, operating, and supporting leisure environments, one consistent theme has remained clear: the quality, confidence, and competence of staff is the single most important factor in delivering exceptional service standards and safe operations.
It is from this insight that 3d leisure training has been established.
This new dedicated training division represents a natural evolution of our business — moving beyond operational delivery alone to actively shape, develop, and strengthen the workforce that underpins the leisure industry.
Rather than treating training as a standalone requirement or compliance obligation, we see it as a fundamental part of operational excellence. Our experience has shown that organisations perform best when teams are not only qualified, but genuinely confident, consistently supported, and continuously developed in line with real-world operational demands.
By launching a specialist training service, 3d leisure is able to bring together three decades of frontline operational knowledge with nationally recognised qualifications and modern learning delivery methods. This ensures that every course we deliver is not only compliant and accredited, but also practical, relevant, and directly transferable to live operational environments.
Working in partnership with leading awarding bodies such as STA (Safety Training Awards) and RLSS UK, we are able to uphold the highest industry standards while embedding real operational insight into every programme.
This launch is not simply an extension of our services — it is a commitment to the future of the industry. A commitment to raising standards, improving workforce capability, and ensuring that every leisure environment, regardless of size or setting, is supported by well-trained, confident professionals who can deliver safe and exceptional experiences every day.
In short, 3d leisure Training exists because experience has taught us that great facilities are built on great people — and great people are built through great training.
At 3d leisure Training, we deliver industry-leading, practitioner-led training programmes designed to support leisure operators, hospitality venues, and workplace environments in meeting their Health & Safety, compliance, and operational excellence standards with complete confidence.
Our approach goes beyond qualification delivery. We focus on real-world application, operational competence, and long-term workforce capability, ensuring teams are not only compliant but confident, capable, and customer-focused in live environments.
We offer fully flexible delivery models including in-person, on-site, and digital learning solutions, enabling organisations to integrate training seamlessly into their operational schedules with minimal disruption.
In partnership with two of the UK’s most respected awarding organisations — STA (Safety Training Awards) and RLSS UK — we ensure all qualifications are delivered to the highest national standards, aligned with current legislation, industry best practice, and evolving operational requirements.
We deliver a comprehensive suite of accredited leisure and workplace safety qualifications designed to support every level of operation:
Courses include:
The Poolside Emergency Responder qualification equips staff with the essential knowledge and practical competencies required to respond to incidents in aquatic environments where a full lifeguard qualification may not be operationally required.
Valid for 2 years
This course provides a robust layer of operational safety and enhances overall duty of care within aquatic environments.
The STA Award for Safety Award for Teachers qualification is designed to train learners in pool rescue and CPR techniques to deal with poolside emergencies. This qualification is for learners who may teach or assist swimming lessons and aquatic activities including school swimming lessons.
Our trainers bring extensive operational experience across leisure, fitness, and hospitality environments, ensuring every session is grounded in real-world application rather than theory alone. This approach supports stronger retention, improved confidence, and measurable operational impact.
Whether you require individual qualifications, team upskilling, or long-term workforce development strategies, 3d leisure Training provides scalable solutions tailored to your business needs.

3d leisure trains and qualifies leisure staff on your own site. Courses cover pool plant operations and water treatment, lifeguarding and poolside safety, first aid and emergency response, and continuing professional development.
Training runs at your facility rather than at a training centre, so a team qualifies together on the plant and the poolside they actually work on. That matters most for health and safety compliance, where competence has to be evidenced against the specific site.
A pool plant operator course qualifies a member of staff to run and monitor the plant that treats pool water. It covers circulation, filtration, disinfection, water chemistry, testing and record keeping, and the response when a reading falls out of range.
Yes. Courses are delivered on your own site, on your own plant and poolside.
Courses lead to nationally recognised qualifications across first aid and emergency response, lifeguarding and poolside safety, and pool plant operations and water treatment. Tell us which qualification your team needs and we will confirm the awarding body and the current syllabus.
Yes. Training is available to facilities we manage and to operators who run their own sites.
Tell us the course, the number of staff and the site. Contact us and we will confirm dates and what the venue needs to provide.

“The transfer of 3d leisure coming via the TUPE process went extremely well effectively with a very smooth process where the staff and I felt at ease, reassured with confidence.
It felt a speedy process to get things up and running for each step of the process managing the transfer effectively to ensure no difficulties or challenges.
The team and I have seen a significant improvement from up-to-date marketing, communications, to efficient systems in place to ensure a smooth operational journey. From QR codes for online joining process, the Techo gym app set up for Tesco WGC was a real success.
Swift communication between the 3d team was on point without delays. When we had questions the 3d leisure team were open and honest, helped in the moment by making time to help support any of our needs.”
“In September 2024, 3d leisure were announced as the winning bidders for the management contract at our Leisure Centre. As with any change both my team of 65 staff and I were concerned about what the future would hold for us all. Within days of the contract announcement the team at 3d leisure began to reassure us through their actions. Initially, I had dialogue with Paul Ramsay, the company MD, and I was briefed on many things about the future including how the TUPE process would be managed.
This served to allay many of the concerns I had and allowed me to share with the team what was to follow. Subsequently, meetings were set up on site with senior members of the 3d team and all of the staff at the Leisure Centre. These sessions were invaluable, and my team were given a detailed explanation of almost everything that they could expect. Obviously, my staff still had questions and worries but at the meetings and following meetings minds were put at rest. Throughout the process we were all fully kept informed with suitable information and this approach ensured that I was comfortable with the whole process.
Overall, the migration has been seamless and since it was completed everything has been as it was explained following the contract change announcement. I firmly believe that the 5-month process could not have been handled any better and that every team member has ultimately benefitted from the move to 3d leisure.”
“The TUPE process to 3d leisure seemed effortless, there was very little to do from the Employees point of view and we were kept informed at all stages of the process via email and through the company directors visiting site and holding regular drop-in sessions for the staff. This put my mind at ease during the process and allayed any worries or concerns that I had.
I feel that 3d leisure being awarded the contract to manage our facility was the best thing that could have happened to the site, personally I feel much more content and appreciated in my role. 3d have provided the tools and support to drive the centre forward and motivate the team through regular contact and guidance and I feel I am trusted to manage and maintain a healthy workforce.”
“I found the whole TUPE process with 3d leisure very straight forward. Initially, we had a letter introducing the new company and explaining what was going to happen. Following this we had several meetings on site where my questions were answered regarding sick pay, holidays, health care, pensions and my contract.
In the beginning I was concerned, but as things progressed, I felt fine and was not worried as the process progressed. Since the transfer has been completed, I have found 3d leisure a really good company to work for and everything has been how I was told from day one.”
