Our Approach – Relationship-based Fitness Training

Camaraderie. Guts. Fun. Tenacity. Zest.

At the Fort our recipe is simple. Relationship-based fitness training… working shoulder to shoulder with beginners to marathoners, all inching closer to becoming healthier and stronger… that’s motivation.  Every time you exercise with us, you have a Coach. Our fitness professionals always offer proper form, motivation, what we are working and why we are working it!

The results are life changing and powerful. We partner with you in your quest for a fit healthy lifestyle. We know you, your goals, and your limitations. The environment is challenging yet our approach is no one left behind – an amazing balance that works for all! Lisa and Danielle together offer 56 years collective experience of motivation, camaraderie, respect and FUN. Along with their staff of 38, The Fort is a place where everyone feels welcome and accepted.

Our facility is built on our philosophy. No wandering off into a sea of treadmills here! We provide an amazing variety of activities led by an upbeat, experienced staff in a clean and inviting 13,000 square foot gym.
