The original Temple Gym has been in existence since the early sixties (1962). The old Birmingham brickwork building seems to have a special atmosphere conducive to super-intense training.

In May 1987 Dorian Yates purchased and took over management of Temple Gym. Since then, Dorian has learned about the things that work and the things that don’t work in the fitness industry. Dorian is now bringing his formula to market. He realizes the complexities of the fitness industry and has joined forces with International Athletic Associations’ team of fitness professionals and together they have built a superior franchise that can to help you succeed in the fitness market.
