Updates to our fees and charges
Yarra Leisure is dedicated to continual improvement of our facilities and maintaining the highest standard of programs and services.
As part of the annual budget process, Yarra City Council recently revised fees and charges across its services. To ensure we maintain these high standards and keep improving our facilities, a small increase to our fees and charges has been introduced.
Please read on to see when these changes will be implemented and the planned facility improvements for the coming year.
Bo Li wins Bronze at the 2018 WFF Universe!
Yarra Leisure Gym Instructor and Personal Trainer Bo Li (pictured far right) has won bronze at the 2018 WFF Universe competition for over 30's Sports Model.
He flew to Singapore last weekend to compete in the competition after winning the national title.
It takes extraordinary strength, discipline and determination to compete with the world's best – let alone win a medal – so we hope you'll join us in congratulating Bo next time you see him in the gym.
*** Way to go, Bo! We couldn't be more proud of you. ***

The world's greatest stage race has just kicked off, and so has our spin challenge! Get spinning with us during the Tour de France and you could ride away with an amazing prize! Attend any class and you'll automatically be entered into the draw.
Then join us at Collingwood on Saturday 28 July to celebrate the grand finale of the race at our Tour de France themed spin class! We'll make sure it's a race to remember with plenty of prizes and giveaways.
