NZ's First Treadmill & Strength Training Boutique | Technogym X Mode Studio

Mode Studio is revolutionising fitness in New Zealand with the launch of the country’s first boutique to offer a dedicated treadmill and strength group training facility. Quickly establishing itself as a leading fitness destination in Auckland, the boutique blends dynamic group workouts with restorative wellness services, creating a holistic approach to health and wellbeing.

The vision behind Mode Studio is clear: to create a space that not only inspires high-energy workouts but also fosters balance, community and longevity. Founder Sam Bluemel explains, “We wanted to build a studio that delivered world-classtraining and incredible workouts, in a space where clients feel uplifted and supported every step of the way.”

With a modern, sophisticated design, Mode Studio feels welcoming from the moment clients walk through the door. The carefully curated interior reflects the boutique’s mission to merge performance with relaxation. Beyond its dynamic training spaces, the studio features contrast therapy rooms, saunas and ice baths, offering a holistic environment where clients can recover and recharge.

A key to Mode Studio’s success lies in its partnership with Technogym, a global leader in fitness technology. Technogym’s advanced equipment forms the foundation of Mode Studio’s group training and personal training programs, delivering versatility, functionality and performance.

Sam shares, “Working with the Technogym team has been an incredible experience. They have offered us a real partnership. Right from the start, as we envisioned bringing treadmill and strength training to New Zealand, it was clear that Technogym would be the partner to help us bring that vision to life like no one else could."

Mode Studio is equipped with Technogym Skillrun treadmills and Technogym Benches, which form the core of the studio’s high energy group training sessions. With personal training sessions incorporating the Technogym universe, Skillrow and Group Cycle Connect among others. Choosing Technogym was an obvious choice for Sam. She shares, “From an equipment perspective, the answer is clear: it’s world-class. There’s nothing better on the market”.

One of the standout features at Mode Studio is the Technogym Skillrun treadmill.

"The sled and parachute options bring a new level of intensity, and we can use sprint intervals, incline work, and resistance training all in one. These features mean when people get into our classes, they’re excited. It breaks up the workout and allows them to push themselves to levels they haven’t before, and that’s really by virtue of working out on a treadmill that is so innovative.”

Mode Studio’s philosophy is to offer clients a well-rounded fitness experience, and the combination of Technogym’s advanced equipment helps achieve that goal. The Technogym Bench plays a key role in Mode Studio’s strength training programming. Known for its versatility, the Technogym Bench is used for a wide range of exercises targeting different muscle groups. Whether working with beginners or experienced athletes, the Bench allows everyone to perform movements with proper form, which is crucial for safety and progress.

“Using the Technogym Bench, our classes focus on foundational strength training. This alternation between equipment brings your heart rate back down, and we focus on heavy weights. We build up strength in a really progressive format. The combination of Technogym equipment offers incredible fitness benefits to everyone that comes through.”

With its blend of world-class design, innovation, and community focus, Mode Studio is redefining what a fitness boutique can be. Technogym is proud to partner with Mode Studio on this journey, helping set a new benchmark for fitness spaces in New Zealand.

This is more than a gym; it’s a place to feel empowered, supported, and inspired.
