Fit Augusta wants to be the gym of choice for the growing downtown population.
It’s opening a new location at 1110 Fenwick St. near the Augusta Richmond County Judicial Center.
The 8,760-square-foot warehouse building across from Don’s Towing is undergoing renovations before the expected opening sometime in October.
The company has operated a location in Evans on Columbia Industrial Boulevard near Hayden’s International Gymnastics Academy since 2008.
George Lee, the owner of Fit Augusta, said his team is excited to help people in booming downtown Augusta, which has over 500 multifamily units under development, according to Meybohm, which helped lease the retail space.
“We have been trying to do this for a while,” Lee said. “We have a great thing going in Evans, and we are excited to help more people get results and provide more career opportunities for professional coaches.”
The gym offers personal training, CrossFit classes for kids, teens and adults, as well as their Legends program for people over the age of 55.
Other downtown fitness centers it will be competing with include The Salvation Army Kroc Center, the May Park Community Center and the Augusta University Wellness Center.
