Founded in 1986 and led by Managing Director Jad Kobeissi, the studio integrates fitness equipment, yoga and Pilates, combat sports (kickboxing and boxing), wellness and spa, personal training, and a Café & Lounge under a single roof, running 85+ weekly group classes. The company has received the body LIFE "Club des Jahres" award and earned coverage in Berliner Zeitung, Tagesspiegel, and Süddeutsche Zeitung.

The technology stack supporting operations includes the InBody 770 body composition analyzer (used for paid Bodycheck assessments), the ClubConnector member app on iOS/Android, a Matterport 360° virtual tour, and SumUp point-of-sale.

The business model is direct-to-consumer B2C memberships supplemented by ancillary revenue streams: personal training, locker rental (€15/month), towel service, and merchandise. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. There is no evidence of funding rounds, investors, M&A activity, parent-company ownership, or geographic expansion beyond the single Berlin site.

Direct peers

• Aspria Berlin: Premium members-only sports and wellness club in Berlin offering fitness, group classes, yoga, spa, and family programming. Most direct comparable in the Berlin market given similar premium positioning, integrated wellness scope, and affluent family target audience.
• Holmes Place Germany: Premium health and fitness club operator with locations in major German cities combining fitness equipment, group classes, yoga, and full wellness/spa amenities. Targets the same affluent urban demographic and competes on integrated premium experience.
• John Harris Fitness: Premium Italian-owned boutique fitness club chain in Germany offering integrated fitness, group classes, wellness, and spa across multiple locations. Highly comparable in concept, target customer (urban professionals), and integrated service model.

Others

• Urban Sports Club: Berlin-based corporate-wellness and sports aggregator offering a single subscription across hundreds of partner studios and gyms. Functions as both partner channel (potentially listing Lokahi) and indirect competitor commoditizing access via subscription pass.

Broad incumbents

• Fitness First Germany: One of Germany's largest fitness chains with broad urban coverage offering equipment training, group classes, and wellness. Overlaps with Lokahi's fitness and group-course offering but operates at a more standardized, mass-premium positioning rather than the curated boutique experience.
• McFit / Basic-Fit: Europe's largest low-cost fitness chain with extensive German footprint. Not directly competitive on premium positioning, but represents the dominant price-sensitive alternative in the Berlin market that compresses pricing for premium operators.

Regional players

• Kieser Training: German strength-training specialty chain focused on medically informed back and joint health training. Comparable as a German premium fitness brand but differentiated by its narrower, medically oriented positioning versus Lokahi's broad lifestyle wellness mix.
• SoulCycle: Iconic US-based boutique indoor cycling and fitness brand with premium positioning and strong community-led identity. Comparable on premium-boutique, community-driven operating model but absent from the Berlin market, so primarily relevant as a model reference.
