Corporate Clients

We have several owners, HR Vice-Presidents, Office-Planning Vice-Presidents, and more among our clientele. They have one thing in common, the need to provide on-site Fitness to their employees. We take care of that.

One VP stated, “I need our executives close by, let’s provide them a good top-notch club that will make them want to work out here…hey we pay some of these exec’s over $200 per hour that time would be more productive in our office building and not worry about them getting injured offsite.”
