UFC Gym formed an exclusive partnership with Life Wellness International Development to open 10 locations throughout Taiwan. The country’s first signature UFC Gym will be in Taipei, with a grand opening scheduled for June.
Located at B1, No. 27, An-Ho Road, Section 1, the 35,000-square-foot signature gym will join recent UFC Gym expansion announcements pan-regionally across Asia.
“We’re thrilled to launch this landmark partnership with Life Wellness to expand UFC Gym’s global footprint throughout Taiwan,” UFC Gym President Adam Sedlack said. “Taiwanese are now focusing on their health more than ever and UFC Gym is a perfect fit to help Taiwan’s fitness enthusiasts Train Different, while striving to achieve their individual goals.”
“Combat sports transform people from within,” Life Wellness International Development Chief Executive Officer Hank Wu said. “Sports and competition strengthen your mind, body and soul. I’m a firm believer that incorporating various martial arts disciplines should be standard practice among fitness activities. Life Wellness and UFC Gym are proud to embark on this partnership to bring this unique form of fitness training to the citizens of Taiwan, while creating a positive environment. Taiwanese people are known to be some of the friendliest and most hospitable people in the world. They deserve better – they deserve UFC Gym.”

The fitness franchise opened more than 50 locations in the past two years, with more than 50 gyms expected to open in the next year.
“UFC has a tremendous fan base across Asia and we’re excited that UFC Gym will bring its unique training methods to this market,” UFC Senior Vice President of International and Content Joe Carr said. “UFC Gym is a perfect brand extension of our organization that helps introduce the sport and values of mixed martial arts to audiences of all ages.”
