Help Us Rebuild Inner Fit — We Can’t Do This Without You!

We’re Moving. And We Need Your Help.

After 10 incredible years in our current space — and 18 years in business — we’ve been hit with a tough reality: our rent is doubling. That means Inner Fit has to move.

We’ve found a beautiful new space full of potential… but with every step forward, the costs keep piling up. We can’t reuse the flooring. We need to install new drywall. Even moving the mirrors is more expensive than expected.

And don’t even get me started on the toilets — they’re so low that after leg day, anyone sitting down might question all their life choices.

So yes… we need new toilets too.

As a small business, we’re doing everything we can to stretch every dollar — but it’s just not enough.

Why I'm Asking for Help

As the owner of Inner Fit, asking for help doesn’t come easy. During the pandemic — through six closures and endless pivots — this community showed up for us in ways I’ll never forget. You helped us keep going, and your support meant the world.

Truthfully, I’ve been shy to ask for help. I put off doing a GoFundMe for months. I agonized over it, unsure if it was the right thing to do.

But after getting the keys this past weekend and starting the renos, we were hit hard with the reality of the state the space is in. It was more than expected — the damage, the repairs, the costs. I had a good long cry. A real come-to-reality moment and worried I should have just closed down for good because the stress is a lot to bear trying to save Inner Fit.

And in that moment, I realized I needed to stop trying to carry this all on my own.

I have a tendency to show up strong and suffer in silence. But this time, I knew better. I pulled out old photos from the past 18 years — renovations, classes, sweaty smiles, moments that shaped this place — and I was reminded:

This isn’t just about owning a small fitness studio like Inner Fit. This is about all of us. It’s about what we’ve built together — and the next version of what we can build, with purpose, with love, and with the help of the people who’ve always believed in it.

Because — it’s about purpose.
