How do you define "Fitness Community?"
Jan 26, 2021
Community is a cultural phenomenon: meanings, ideas, beliefs, and behaviors shared by a group of people, and taught and learned by members of a group.
When I started working here about 2 years ago, I quickly realized, this place is different, the Members are here for the fitness and the "community" happens. It's not what I expected and I love it!
I hear over and over "It is the people that sold me. I didn't get to know anyone at my old gym, the employees didn't know me, or I would never have hung out with anyone after a workout when I went to a regular gym. I just put my earbuds in, worked out and left. But here, I get to know the amazing people who work here, I get to play tennis, or workout with a community of people who really know me and care.
I hope you all feel the same way I do, we workout together, play tennis together, support one another, and build community around being healthy, happy and fit. For all of us, being here becomes as much about community as it does about fitness.
