Two years ago, this was still a construction site.

Plastic on the walls. Bare floors. Junk everywhere. An empty building with a lot of work ahead of us.

Today marks two years since we opened the doors at our new Strong Style location.

It’s easy to get caught up in what’s next and forget to look back at how far you’ve already come. These pictures are a good reminder.

A lot of long days, problems solved, lessons learned, and people working together turned an empty space into something we’re incredibly proud of.

And the building is only part of it. What matters most is everything that has happened inside of it since.

Thank you to our staff, coaches, members, fighters, families, and everyone who helped bring this place to life.

Two years down. A long way from where we started — and still a lot left to build.

A few updates are coming to the Strong Style Adult Class Schedule beginning Monday, August 24th.

Our Athletics program is evolving into two more focused classes:

💪 TOTAL BODY STRENGTH - A full-body strength-focused class built around developing muscle, power and overall strength. Conditioning will still be a part of every class, and the intensity will remain high.

🔥 HIIT CONDITIONING - Fast-paced, high-intensity training combining weights, cardio and functional movements with an emphasis on conditioning, endurance and total-body fitness. (We added Tuesday and Thursday 6am classes).

🥊 HIIT BOXING - We’re also adding HIIT Boxing classes to the schedule. Real boxing technique, combinations, heavy bag work and conditioning packed into a high-energy workout. Great for beginners AND experienced boxers looking to sharpen their skills, sweat and burn serious calories.

🥊 INTRO TO SPARRING - Every other week on Thursday’s at 7p, we’ll offer an intro to sparing class designed to help boxes begin applying their skills in a controlled, technical and coached environment. The focus will be on timing, defense, distance and gaining confidence before progressing into regular sparring.

The goal is simple: more focused classes, more variety and more ways to train.

New Adult Class Schedule starts Monday, August 24th.

See you in class. 👊

• Teaching a few HIIT Conditioning and Strength classes each week
• Helping members improve strength, conditioning, mobility, and overall fitness
• Creating a positive, professional training environment
• Being an active part of the Strong Style coaching team

We’re looking for someone who is reliable, energetic, coachable, professional, and genuinely enjoys helping people improve.

Experience is preferred, and a nationally recognized personal training certification is a plus. More importantly, we want someone who takes coaching seriously and wants an opportunity to continue developing.
