F45 Joins Sugar Village: A Perfect Fit for Our Community
Sugar Village is thrilled to welcome F45, a globally renowned gym, set to open its first KZN location here in early 2026. Known for sparking fresh ideas—like introducing the region’s first padel courts with Station Padel and the first Plato Coffee outside an estate—Sugar Village is once again bringing something exciting to the area. F45’s arrival promises to elevate the local fitness scene with its fast, fun, and community-driven workouts.
What is F45?
F45, which began in Australia, stands for “functional” training in 45-minute sessions. These workouts blend cardio (think jumping or rowing) and strength exercises (like lifting weights) to improve everyday movement and overall fitness. Classes are group-based, guided by a trainer, with exercises displayed on big screens. You move between stations—bikes, weights, or rowers—keeping things varied and engaging. With daily-changing routines and a supportive team vibe, F45 makes fitness accessible and enjoyable for everyone, from beginners to seasoned gym-goers.
Community at the Core
At Sugar Village, community is at the heart of everything we do. It’s more than just a collection of businesses—it’s a place where people connect, support one another, and feel they belong. Our tenants reflect this value, each contributing to a tight-knit environment in their own unique way.
Station Padel: This isn’t just about hitting a ball; it’s about bringing people together. Station Padel introduced KZN to this fun, fast-growing sport, and its courts are always buzzing with laughter and friendly competition. Whether you’re a pro or picking up a paddle for the first time, the social vibe creates bonds that extend beyond the game, making it a cornerstone of our community’s active lifestyle.
Plato Coffee: More than a caffeine fix, Plato Coffee is where neighbors become friends over a cup of joe. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingles with the sound of lively conversations, turning it into the heart of our social scene. It’s a spot to unwind, catch up, or even spark new ideas—perfect for refueling after a match at Station Padel.
The Robert Group: As a financial services business with an award-winning asset portfolio, The Robert Group is deeply rooted in our community’s growth. They offer expert guidance to help residents build secure financial futures, from investments to planning. Their success and stability reinforce the prosperity of Sugar Village, proving that community strength goes beyond the social—it’s economic too.
F45: Now, F45 adds its own flavor of togetherness. Their group workouts aren’t just about getting fit; they’re about getting fit together. Picture this: sweating it out with your neighbors, cheering each other on, and celebrating every milestone as a team. That’s the F45 way—and it couldn’t be more in tune with Sugar Village’s spirit. By encouraging collaboration and camaraderie, F45 strengthens the sense of belonging we cherish here.
A Day in Sugar Village
Imagine a typical day here: you start with a lively game at Station Padel, working up a sweat and a smile with friends. Afterward, you pop over to Plato Coffee for a well-earned latte, chatting about the match or the week ahead. Later, you might stop by The Robert Group to discuss your financial goals, feeling secure in their expertise. And now, with F45 joining the mix, you can cap it off with a group workout—laughing, lifting, and leaving stronger together. Each tenant complements the others, creating a rhythm that keeps our community thriving.
A Growing Hub
Sugar Village has a knack for starting trends in KZN, and F45’s debut is no exception. Following the success of Station Padel and Plato Coffee, this gym will draw fitness enthusiasts from near and far. Opening in early 2026, it’s already generating buzz among locals eager for a fresh workout option. Whether you’re new to fitness or a regular, F45 offers a welcoming space to get moving—together.
At Sugar Village, every tenant plays a part in weaving the fabric of our community. Whether it’s a game at Station Padel, a chat at Plato Coffee, financial advice from The Robert Group, or a workout at F45, each interaction strengthens our bonds. We’re not just a collection of businesses; we’re a family, growing stronger together. We can’t wait to see F45 come to life right here!
