Tremont Athletic Club: East

Posted on 02/20/19 in Greater Circle Business Alliance

We recently sat down with Nick White, owner of Tremont Athletic Club (TAC), after opening their newest location in Uptown! We toured the location while talking to Nick about his decision to start the business and why community means so much to TAC!

“A little over four years ago when I first thought to start a gym, the workout/gym market was much more ‘silo’ed than it is today. On one end, you had very cookie-cutter, high-volume, franchised gyms offering extremely low prices and incredibly high volume. At the other end, you had these super high-priced crossfit gyms – a little intimidating, sure, but also a little exclusive as far as membership went. There was a definite market gap, and I wanted to fill that.” Notes White, when talking about the gym’s layout and overall ‘vibe’. “I wanted a place that people felt comfortable walking into, but once they got in, knew they had the tools and space to work really hard and achieve their goals.”

Along with this ‘vibe’ is the beautiful, floor-to-ceiling mural done by local artist, Lauren Noel.

The newest location of Tremont Athletic Club resides at 1999 Circle Drive in Uptown, and boasts a nearly 10,000 square foot space with room for weight lifting and cardio exercise, as well as a separate group fitness room and Peloton bike room.

Along with boosting confidence and promoting a healthy lifestyle, Nick mentions TAC’s focus on community and family, “A while ago, we had a member email us a testimonial after she had celebrated one year working out at TAC. She noted an awesome 70-pound weight loss, but really focused her testimonial on the community-aspect of the gym. She said that without the friends she made, and coming to the gym just to hang out and chat, she wouldn’t have been as committed to herself and her health for that year. And that’s why we do it.”
