Training at Mea Gym when you live in Blaricum
Blaricum has no full-service fitness club with a complete class schedule, which is exactly why many residents choose Mea Gym in Laren. The club is around the corner but offers what a large city gym does: a spacious strength floor with free weights and modern equipment, its own studio, personal training and a sauna to unwind in afterwards.
What people from Blaricum mention most is the atmosphere. Mea Gym is not an anonymous chain: the instructors know your name, know what you are working on and notice when you have missed a week. For people who dropped out at a big club before, that personal approach is often the difference between two months and two years.
Travel time and access from Blaricum
From the centre of Blaricum you reach Schapendrift 62 in Laren in about four minutes: under two kilometres via Naarderstraat and Eemnesserweg. By bike it takes roughly ten minutes, a route that is popular with members from Blaricum-Dorp and De Bijvanck in spring and summer.
Parking is free on site, so you never have to circle for a space. During peak hours that saves a few minutes every visit, and that small hurdle is often what makes or breaks a gym membership.
Popular classes and services among members from Blaricum
Morning classes are the favourite among Blaricum members: EasyShape, pilates and yoga fill up early on weekdays with people heading to work afterwards. In the evening, kickboxing, spinning and HYROX training are the busiest hours, and on Saturday morning a regular group trains together on the strength floor.
Families from Blaricum often choose the kids classes, where children from age six train under supervision while their parents work out. For over-55s there are quieter hours with adapted programmes focused on strength, balance and mobility.
If you want to work specifically on weight loss, muscle gain or recovery after an injury, we match you with one of our certified personal trainers. You start with an intake, a measurement and a plan that fits your schedule, not a standard template.
Atmosphere and facilities
The club is bright and spacious, with a separate free-weights zone, a cardio area, a group class studio and a sauna to recover in. There are changing rooms with showers, free wifi and a bar for coffee or a shake afterwards.
