About CityFitness Moorhouse

CityFitness Moorhouse is a 24-hour gym on Moorhouse Avenue in Christchurch, offering members round-the-clock access to state-of-the-art strength and cardio equipment. The gym floor includes treadmills, bikes, ellipticals, strength machines, cables, barbells, dumbbells and lifting platforms, giving members what they need whether they're focused on cardio, strength training, or general fitness.

Beyond the gym floor, CityFitness Moorhouse runs coach-led group fitness classes out of its Group Fitness Studio, Cycle Studio and HITT Studio, built to deliver full-body workouts in a motivating, community-driven environment. The club also has a team of personal trainers offering personalised coaching for members working toward specific athletic performance, skill-building or general wellness goals.

Membership is structured in tiers, from a home-club-only Basic membership through to a Black Card that unlocks access to CityFitness's 60+ clubs nationwide, unlimited group fitness and HIIT classes, free guest and family access, and massage chair use, up to a Premium membership that adds access to Simplicity Fitness studios for unlimited Reformer Pilates, Mat Pilates and Yoga classes, plus Recovery Room access.

CityFitness Moorhouse: 24-Hour Gym in Christchurch

CityFitness Moorhouse sits on Moorhouse Avenue in Christchurch, offering members 24-hour access to a fully equipped gym floor. Whatever the training goal — building strength, improving cardio fitness, or general conditioning — the club's equipment lineup covers the essentials: treadmills, bikes and ellipticals for cardio work, pin-loaded strength machines and cable stations, free weights including barbells and dumbbells, and dedicated lifting platforms.

More Than Just a Gym Floor

CityFitness Moorhouse runs a full group fitness programme out of three dedicated spaces: a Group Fitness Studio, a Cycle Studio, and a HITT Studio. The classes are coach-led and designed to deliver a full-body workout in a motivating environment, aimed at helping members build lean muscle, improve athletic performance, and develop healthier habits as part of a wider fitness community. For anyone wanting more individual attention, the club's personal trainers offer tailored coaching, working around each member's schedule and goals — whether that's athletic performance, learning new skills, or simply building a healthier lifestyle.

Membership Built Around Access

CityFitness offers three flexible, month-to-month membership tiers. The Basic membership covers 24/7 access to the Moorhouse club's equipment — free weights, cardio machines, strength machines and lifting platforms. The Black Card membership steps that up with access to CityFitness's full network of 60+ clubs nationwide, unlimited access to Group Fitness and HIIT classes, free guest and family access, massage chair use, and a free gym bag. The top-tier Premium membership adds access to Simplicity Fitness studios, unlocking unlimited Reformer Pilates, Mat Pilates and Yoga classes, plus use of the Recovery Room.

Around the Clock, With Support When You Need It

While the gym floor itself is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the club is staffed from 7:00am to 7:00pm on weekdays and 8:00am to 4:00pm on weekends, giving members a window to get help from staff, ask questions, or get settled in as a new member. On public holidays, staffed hours shift to 8:00am–4:00pm, and the club is unstaffed (though still accessible) on Christmas Day and New Year's Day.
