Events
Let’s workout and make a difference!
At The Fitness Zone we believe that fitness should be fun… and we also believe in giving back to the community that supports us! Several times a year we host events, such as spin-a-thons, to raise money for those less fortunate.
We also like to host events that foster community within our building – think fun runs, Spartan races, and more!

Event Recap
Giving back to our community is important to us, so we were beyond excited to host Glow After Dark, a fitness dance event to benefit Tim’s House, a division of Samaritan House.
We provided glow sticks, light up hair clips, glow paint and other fun light up goodies to make sure that we really lit up the night in support of those facing homelessness.
We filled the wellness room with smiling people having a fun time together, not caring if they missed a step, or just getting carried away with the atmosphere and creating their own moves!
A big shoutout and thank you to dance instructor Jazmin for heading up the fun, even though she was recently in a car accident (with the bruises to show for it!) and not 100%! We all appreciate you.
And lastly, thank you so much for all that participated and donated! And if you missed, do t worry! We’ll be hosting more fun events in the future open to everyone!
