About

About Molecule 42

Opened in January 2026 by coach Karim Haddad and Layla Farouk.

We built the club we always wanted to train in: real coaching, small groups, a view of the creek and a recovery lab to finish the day.

Fourteen coaches from eleven countries will meet you where you are — from your first squat to your first HYROX.
