Get Real…Keep the makeup, spandex, and attitudes at home!
The health club portion of our faciltiy is simple and functional. Our club offers a friendly neighborhood feel where you are a name not a number.
If you have ever used a cleaning service you know that often times you clean before they come to…clean. Many health clubs give you that same feeling. In other words, you feel that you have to be in shape to even walk into that given club. Once in the door you have to look a certain way, prep before you come, and wear certain articles of clothing. It is ridiculous!
Beginners – We offer beginner programs that are designed to be easy to follow, easy to learn and built on success. Many of our members LOVE our computerized program, ActivTrax.
Advanced – A huge free weight area, Olympic and power lifting area, & kettlebells…there is a reason why champion bodybuilders & power lifters use our facility!
Seniors – We offer workout programs for seniors and older adults. We have insurance programs that provide for in some cases 100% discounts

Reality based self-defense comes to Pittsburgh
Krav Maga ™ (“contact combat”) is the official self-defense and fighting system of the Israeli Defense Forces and hundreds of law enforcement agencies from across the world. Krav Maga has been taught across the world to men, women and children of all walks of life and is now being offered to Pittsburgh.
Krav Maga is perfect for the military and police. However, it is also perfect for your girlfriend, wife, mother, daughter, son, father and...YOU! With Krav Maga you do not need years of training or to become Bruce Lee in order to defend yourself. Simply put, Krav Maga is the simplest and most realistic self defense system ever developed!
Warning: Don't be fooled by imposters! Since our arrival many people and schools are claiming to teach Krav Maga or Krav Maga "like" techinques. We are Pittsburgh's only licensed Krav Maga Worldwide Training Center! We are the only facility offering certified Krav Maga Instructors!
