Skygym

What Skygym does

Skygym operates a single-location, low-commitment fitness club at Av. Retamas 80, Alcorcón (Madrid), serving residents of Alcorcón and surrounding southwestern Madrid municipalities. Founded in 2018 as an SL (legal name GRUPO CASTEMU, S.L), the company positions itself on a transparent no-permanence subscription model with two tiers — SKYGYM GO at €29.90/month and SKYGYM PRIME at €32.90/month — differentiated by class reservation lead time (2h vs 36h). A one-time €30 enrollment fee, €6/month medical-leave retention fee, and €15 day pass provide supplementary revenue streams, alongside optional UVA cabins, personal training, and nutrition counseling upsells.

The physical product is 1,600+ m2 of cardio, functional, strength, and activity studio space equipped with Precor USA machinery and an exclusive Glutebuilder glute-training circuit, plus an outdoor artificial-grass training area and a free 2-hour covered parking lot enabled by automatic license plate recognition. The digital product is APP Skygym, a proprietary mobile application that delivers personalized training programs, instructional videos, class schedules, reservations, body composition tracking via in-club smart scales, dietary guidance, and a catalog of 350+ virtual classes. Facility access is controlled via fingerprint biometric scanning with encrypted template storage and numeric backup codes.

Commercial operations are direct-to-consumer with a product-led growth motion: members self-enroll through a seven-step online flow at skygym.provis.es, then complete biometric registration on first visit. Marketing is dominated by organic digital (skygym.es SEO, Facebook, Instagram) and word-of-mouth. Group classes are organized into three verticals — Body Mind (Pilates, Yoga), Energy (Zumba, Cycling, Bodycombat, The Trip, Global Training), and Tone (Bodypump, GAP). Capacity is intentionally constrained ("plazas limitadas"), and there is no disclosed second location, no institutional funding, and no parent company.
