A NEW Muay Thai training studio will be opening in Boscombe's main street.
Fitter Than Fit Ltd has won planning permission to open in the Anna's Furnishings store at 686 Christchurch Road, near to the eastern end of the precinct.
The studio, which will offer Muay Thai 'bootcamp' fitness classes and training between 6.30am and 9.30pm on weekdays, with reduced hours at weekends, will be located at the back of the store, with the front area retained as a shop.
It will not include a weight lifting gym, about which the council's environmental health officer had expressed concern as "past complaints have mostly been related to impact noise from the use of free weights in gyms".
Approving the plans using delegated powers, council planning officers have applied conditions requiring the applicant to ensure the premises are properly sound proofed.
