Brief Description : We are a non-profit gym providing exercise and nutrition opportunities to the Westside Atlanta communities.
Mission: We improve the health of families in underserved communities by promoting quality nutrition and active lifestyles.
Vision: Our vision is to partner with local organizations to decrease rates of obesity, cardiovascular disease and diabetes; thus, creating a health conscious change in the community We began because residents in English Avenue asked for a safe place to exercise. In January 2012, we officially opened our doors with a focus on youth fitness. We started by offering fitness classes to the students at the New Life SAY Yes! Center after school program. We quickly added Zumba classes for the women. In the summer of 2012, we formed a partnership with FCA Inner City Baseball and began providing sports training to the all-star team and now we train all FCA baseball teams. We added nutrition classes for the SAY Yes! students and bootcamp for adults. In the Fall of 2012, indoor cycling classes (Spin) began two days a week. Over the winter break, we trained the Vine City Vipers basketball team.
In January of 2013, we expanded by providing our community with Yoga classes and Fitness Assessments. Summer 2013 we offered a half-day exercise and nutrition camp to rising 4th-10th graders who live in zip codes 30318 and 30314. In August 2013, we partnered with Odyssey Villas
