I am so happy to be a member at Franklin Athletic Club. My company has graciously taken part in a corporate rate with them. Harrison is always so helpful and welcoming. Lisa did my assessment and she was knowledgeable and friendly. Stephanie is my personal trainer who has taught me so much and I am so glad to have her on my wellness journey. Love the community feel of this place! George's kickboxing classes are great too! All of the staff at the Club are just so kind. Been a member for a little over a month but I feel like I have been a member here for a lot longer.

I haven’t thought of, or seen anything, that doesn’t impress me. And the price? Incredible.
Im picky and have been blessed enough and spoiled previously with a now closed private gym.
Great club for families. We were members at Lifetime for years but find that Franklin has more of a community vibe and is better for our kids. They have more activities/options for our 8-10 year olds, isn’t as crowded as LT, has great facilities, friendly staff and again feels more like the community gym rather than the corporate gyms in the area.
