ONE|DZ - Owner
James Rhodes-Doughty
James started ONE|DZ with a simple idea: to create a space where people feel supported, encouraged and confident in their training. A place that’s friendly, focused, and built around real relationships.
Born and raised in Derby, James has spent years helping people move better, feel stronger, and build habits that last. He understands that everyone’s starting point is different, and he’s made sure the gym reflects that. From how it's laid out to the way the team works with you, every detail has been considered.
ONE|DZ isn’t just about sets and reps. It’s about showing up, feeling welcome and knowing you’re in good hands.
