Personal Training, Standard Gym Membership, or Mix It Up – You Call the Shots

If you aren’t ready to start personal training but want a standard gym membership so you can work your routine your way, no problem! We welcome you to try A Tighter U and enjoy monthly membership to a boutique gym that doesn’t have the swarms of people or the pretentious attitude you see at big chain workout centers.

We may be known for our training, but we also have the best gym for guests to perform their own workouts in a comfortable atmosphere with virtually zero wait time. The best thing in getting a gym membership with a Tighter U is that you can add on personal training down the road, or even book as many sessions as you want, when you are ready. And if you never use personal training, no problem! We are not a cookie cutter gym with a minimum commitment requirement. We strive to offer an amazing workout experience for standard membership users so they can train hard to reach their goals.
