If you're looking for the perfect spot to escape everyday stresses, look no further than Nordic Balance St. James's in London. Just a 2-minute walk from Piccadilly Circus, 12-15 minutes from Soho and Mayfair, we are home to one of the most exclusive gyms, complete with a swimming pool, a spa pool Jacuzzi, a sauna and a steam room. The swimming pool is small but mighty, 12 metres long and 1.4 metres deep, featuring Fastlane Technology that allows swimmers to take on the current. Of course, there is always the option to have a more leisurely evening dip. The exclusive nature of our gym means that our members are guaranteed minimal interruption, even during peak times.

Sauna & Steam Room


An intense exercise session can leave the body feeling fatigued and the muscles aching for relief. The perfect place to ease overworked muscles is in the steam room or sauna. To ensure that your experience is as convenient as possible, this sauna also features a small shower should you want to freshen up.


Hydrotherapy & Injury Recovery


Our pool provides more than just an excellent cardio and relaxation option for our members: it can also be utilized for injury recovery through hydrotherapy. Practising hydrotherapy with low-impact exercises in the water is the perfect way to aid in postoperative recovery, rehabilitate from muscle injuries, or increase blood circulation.

Using the Pool - Frequently Asked Questions

What is the size of the swimming pool?

The swimming pool is 12 metres long and 1.4 metres deep.

What is Fast Lane Technology, and how does it work?

Our fast lane machine is connected to one end of the pool, and it is controlled with a simple remote, with ‘On/Off’ and ‘Speed Up/Speed Down’ controls; this allows an individual to control the speed of their swim for as long as they like. 

We have a small display above the machine, which displays the speed of the current. This is displayed in the time it would take to cover 100m (4 lengths of a standard pool). 

We do not operate a booking system for the fast lane.
