For the Reporter

Anytime Fitness, a 24-hour co-ed fitness franchise, has opened in the Kent Meridian Shopping Plaza.

“For many people, joining a gym can be an intimidating experience” said Sean Dettloff, Anytime Fitness club owner. “Our gym is small enough that we can provide personalized attention for all of our members. Whether weight-loss is your goal, or increased strength or improved balanced and flexibility – or a combination of some of those things – at Anytime Fitness, we’re able to help you achieve whatever results you seek.”

Nationwide, the average Anytime Fitness club has about 800 members. The gyms are staffed roughly 16 hours a day, but members can access the club whenever the like – even during unstaffed hours – using a computerized key-fob system.

Membership at one Anytime Fitness club gives members access to 2,400 clubs worldwide as well as access to AnytimeHealth.com, a comprehensive online wellness support system available.

To celebrate its grand opening, Anytime Fitness is offering free enrollment. Club tours are available during staffed hours. Membership information is available at the club, by calling 253-518-0071 or by emailing KentWA@AnytimeFitness.com.
