Expiring work visas and a dearth of international tourists is taking its toll on gyms and fitness centres in Queenstown.
CrossFit Queenstown head coach Stephen Makuta said about 20 per cent of weekly participants in his classes on Gorge Rd used to be from out of town.
"Almost every day there would be two to three drop-ins and in a class of 12 to 14 that's a good percentage. Now it's probably one to five a week, if it is busy."
After lockdown, the gym took an initial hit to regular memberships because of job insecurity, but it returned to nearly full strength in October.
