Open Gym
Workout on your own time, at your own pace. To cater to the increasing demand of our community and our clients, we are now offering a limited number of spots for clients to access the gym seven days a week, 5:30 AM-10PM.

Welcome to Phase Gym! Interested in joining? New members must schedule a tour. No walk-ins.
We have limited space available for open gym and private training clients, but we are accepting both at this time.
We hope to see you soon!

Online Training
Personal training at Phase begins with a conversation about you. Together we will sit down and discuss your fitness goals, match you with a trainer, decide on 30 minute, 45 minute or a one hour training package, and get you on your way to the next phase your fitness journey.
This is not a class. Small groups give you the best of both worlds - helping you build relationships, receive encouragement and support, while having one-on-one fitness guidance by an in-person trainer.
Online training is a good alternative for busy schedules - let us develop a personal fitness plan for you. An online fitness plan allows you to work out when it's most convenient. We will check in with each other on a regular basis to chart your progress and help you reach your fitness goals.
