Pass Information
Why We Don’t Offer “Memberships” Cons of “Memberships”
So What Do We Offer?
Oftentimes with private gyms and fitness centers you are forced into a monthly contract and have to pay joining fees just for the opportunity to purchase a “membership.” We believe in offering a simpler, more affordable approach to make it easier for everyone to access fitness facilities.
We offer a variety of pass options that do not require a contract, which include monthly and annual options. You can also walk in and just pay the general admission fee. Have your friends join you; they only have to pay the general admission fee as well. There are no hidden fees for guests.
