UFC GYM® announced plans to open its first East Coast facility in Long Island, N.Y., in spring 2013.
“Just like the UFC has revolutionized the world of combat sports, we are now bringing the newest innovation of fitness and training to the East Coast,” said Dana White, the president of UFC GYM. “UFC GYM is not just for aspiring fighters, it is for everyone who wants to have a place to work out and who is looking to change up what they do when they go to the gym. Training like a UFC Athlete is the most empowering way to achieve fitness results.”
The East Coast club will feature an array of amenities including a 32-foot Octagon, BJJ Studio, bag room, top-of-the-line strength training and cardio machines, battling ropes, agility ladders and other functional training equipment. In addition to expert personal trainers, the club space boasts an expansive 2,5000-square-foot group fitness studio to house a full range of UFC GYM’s signature classes including Hot Hula, Women’s Self Defense, Performance Cycling, and more.
“Every gym that we open just gets better!” said Adam Sedlack, the senior vice president of UFC GYM. “Fusing together what is so great about mixed martial arts, with state-of-the art fitness equipment and amenities, clearly makes UFC GYM the most unique training option in the world today. What makes our gyms so special is that we bring fitness and community together — when dad is doing a boxing class, mom can be taking Hi-Octane Conditioning, all while the kids are improving their athletic performance. We have something for everyone, and cannot wait to show our ‘Train Different’ approach to the residents of Long Island.”
