About: Coop gym santé Sutton was born in 2014 when the five members of the launching committee had the objective of offering a different product than those found in run-of-mill gyms. They did not want to simply be different, but to give body to their dream, which remains to:

  • facilitate, through physical activity, the taking ownership of health matters by one and all in our community;
  • offer members and subscribers an environment conducive to the birth of a social network.
