Community Fitness Infrastructure
A proposed network of free-access calisthenics parks would make community fitness more accessible across Kenya.
Planned: our community fitness park model is in the design phase; parks are not yet open.
Movement should be for everyone.
Paid gyms and uneven access to facilities can exclude people who would benefit from regular physical activity.
What are the program objectives?
- Design a practical, low-cost outdoor fitness model.
- Build land and county government partnerships.
- Work towards two pilot parks in 2027.
How will the program work?
Identify pilot counties, seek suitable land and develop partnerships for construction and long-term stewardship. Bodyweight exercise equipment would support the free-access model.
Who is it intended to support?
Communities without accessible public fitness infrastructure, including young people unable to afford gym membership.
What outcomes are expected?
We aim to develop two pilot fitness parks in 2027. Construction and opening dates depend on land agreements, funding and delivery partnerships.
A little more clarity
Are the fitness parks open?
No. The model is in the design phase. We will announce locations and opening dates as plans progress.
Will access be free?
Free public access is the intended model. Locations and operating arrangements are still to be developed.
