Hands down the best gym with the best people keeping things running!! We are so grateful for you all!
16 YEARS.
16 years ago today, Asia and I opened the doors to The Temple.
We were two brand-new, inexperienced business owners who had just spent four months of our lives and $100,000 of our own money trying to get everything ready for January 11th, 2010.
We didn’t know if all that time, money, sweat and yes, a few tears, was going to be worth it.
We didn’t know if anyone would even want to be a member of a little 3,000 sq ft gym called “Temple Fitness”.
It was a mix of older used equipment and a few new pieces. Just enough to get a solid workout in and be called a gym.
Fast forward 16 years…
We went from little rental building to a 12,000 sq ft facility, we own, packed wall-to-wall with equipment and more importantly, FULL of people we are proud to call our Temple Family.
Over the years, I’ve received a lot of compliments about the Temple.
But here’s a little secret…
This entire thing started with one simple question I asked Asia August of 2009:
“Hey… you wanna open a gym?”
From that moment on, the credit for everything people love about the Temple doesn’t belong to us, it belongs to every single person who has chosen to spend their hard-earned money each month to be part of this place.
The love, suport and respect for the gym is why those compliments are given.
You can have the biggest building and the best equipment money can buy…
but without that, you’ll never have what I like to call “the vibe” of th gym.
And that vibe is 100% because of YOU.
THANK YOU for 16 amazing years.
We can’t wait to see where the next 16 take us together.
And lastly, I have to thank three absolutely amazing women:
Asia, Katie, and Sara “the Power Puff Girls”.
These three are the definition of Boss Babes and care for the Temple 24/7, day in and day out.
I am beyond grateful. 💪🏼🐶🖤🧡
