The Blue Mountain Group recently introduced CrossFit Colombo, along with a luxury leisure pool complex, as the two latest value additions to the group’s state-of-the-art sports and wellness complex, OSMO Fitness.
An exclusive opening event was hosted to celebrate the launch of the new facilities, and was graced by the presence of Minister of Sports Dayasiri Jayasekara and Blue Mountain Group Chairman Dr. Hiran Hettiarachchi. Also present were Blue Mountain Group Executive Director Dr. Rayomi Hettiarachchi with several other distinguished guests and members of the Blue Mountain team.
Located in the heart of Colombo’s suburbs, in Pellawatte, Battaramulla, the ultra-modern sports and wellness complex offers members an exclusive health and fitness experience and provides access to world-class training equipment and facilities. The all-new CrossFit facility and luxurious leisure pool complex are set to further augment OSMO’s vast offering of facilities, whilst offering a well-rounded fitness, health and wellness solution. CrossFit is gaining immense popularity internationally and is widely recognised as a highly effective strength and conditioning training program that combines a variety of functional movements and features exercises such as pull-ups, squats, push-ups, weightlifting, gymnastics, running, rowing and much more. The martial arts facility and the luxury leisure pool are other key additions. Spanning across 20m, the pool will offer swimmers the chance to train and use the space at leisure and for their relaxation as well.
Commenting on the Blue Mountain Group’s latest additions to OSMO Fitness, its core sports and wellness brand, Dr. Hiran Hettiarachchi said: “The Blue Mountain Group has always been dedicated to encouraging healthy living. We are delighted to expand our sports and wellness brand through the addition of this sophisticated Crossfit facility and luxurious leisure pool complex. Whilst OSMO Fitness stems from our long-term diversification strategy, it is also a result of our ongoing commitment to encourage communities to embrace healthier and more active lifestyles. We hope that these new additions will further enhance our offering to our members, and strengthen our contribution to the local fitness industry.”
OSMO Fitness is designed to offer a vast range of activities and fitness training options. The complex is equipped with spacious steam and sauna rooms, elegantly designed locker facilities and a plush, VIP member’s lounge. The complex attracts some of Colombo’s most elite VIPs and is frequented by various local celebrities and athletes. OSMO Fitness is currently one of the only complexes in Sri Lanka that houses Technogym equipment, the world’s leading brand of fitness equipment which is certified and endorsed by the Olympic Committee.
OSMO Fitness specialises in offering a range of cardio training programs, aqua fitness, aqua aerobics, Zumba, aerobics, intense ab workouts and outdoor boot camps. The complex also has its own kids’ club, an area where children can play, do homework, enjoy parties and participate in a range of fun activities. Parents can opt to use the complex, with the peace of mind that their children are in a safe environment and are being cared for while they work out. Over the years, Blue Mountain has strengthened its reputation as a leader and trailblazer in the real estate and property development industry of Sri Lanka. OSMO Fitness serves as the company’s first fitness initiative, and plays a key role in encouraging communities to embrace wellness and fitness as integral parts of their day-to-day lives.
