“We’re even looking to target the corporate market for team-building events,” former gym manager Mr Borer, said. “It’s not just for kids, adults can come down and enjoy the facilities too.
“It’s fantastic for cardiovascular health and it works the lower body and core as well.”
It costs £10 to get into the arena, with customers allowed an hour to try out the different activities.
Boost is now open Monday through until Sunday from 9am until 10pm with the last customers allowed in at 9pm.
