Our Community Vision:

Inclusive membership model: tiered pricing, sliding-scale options, pay-what-you-can classes, and family passes so cost is not a barrier.

Evidence-based programming: group fitness, strength training, senior mobility classes, youth sports and after-school self defense programs.

Local hiring and training: recruit staff from the neighborhood, provide paid certification programs, and create career pathways in fitness, wellness coaching, and facility management.

Community ownership and engagement: community based advisory board
