UFC Gym has joined the ranks of gyms striving to draw employees of well known and startup tech companies, such as Facebook and Netflix, into its doors. On May 15, 2014, UFC Gym began enrolling members into its first location in Sunnyvale, California.
“This is an energizing time for us as we celebrate another UFC Gym in the Bay Area, home of our very first location in Concord (2009),” said Adam Sedlack, the president of UFC Gym in a press release. “Since then, we have seen incredible facility growth throughout the states and Australia … We are honored to continue to provide a community like Sunnyvale with dynamic ways to see immediate results.”
The new 30,000-square-foot location will be located at 733 S. Wolfe Rd., and is scheduled to open for workouts in the fall of 2014. The club will feature a 30-foot Octogan, state-of-the-art workout equipment and UFC Gym-signature classes.
UFC Gym will be competing with a number of existing chains that have penetrated the area, including 24 Hour Fitness, The Bay Club Company and Leisure Sports, Inc.
Out of eight UFC Gym “signature” clubs, this will be UFC Gym’s fifth club in California. Overall, UFC Gym boasts over 100 locations worldwide.
