A Healthy Balance

Founder story

A Healthy Balance was founded in 2009 on the premise that healthy doesn't have to be overly complicated! After working in the fitness industry for years and being frustrated by the typical "big box gym" and cookie cutter approach that was commonplace.

We wanted to do things differently and build a supportive community where members feel comfortable and supported while reaching their goals with an individualized approach. From humble beginnings (see picture of our first set up!) to now, AHB has gone through many shifts, always with the focus being on delivering the best results to our members! Our team of knowledgeable, experienced and caring experts are dedicated to meeting you where you are and working with you to reach your goals!” This above text section should the first large section labeled “Meet A Healthy Balance” Swap out the picture of the woman lunging with dumbbells for the picture of the first gym set up that is currently on the home page – that is our space circa 2009.
