About Us

At Forged by Fire, we believe fitness is more than physical strength — it’s about transformation from the inside out. Our foundation is built on Biblical values, and everything we do is rooted in our faith in Christ.

We believe in the power of prayer, the strength of community, and the joy of worship. Our mission is to create an environment where people can grow not only in their physical fitness, but also in their spiritual walk.

Inspired by Romans 12:1–2, we strive to offer our bodies as living sacrifices, pursuing a lifestyle of renewal and transformation. Just as Ephesians 2:21 reminds us, we see ourselves being “built together to become a dwelling place for God by the Spirit".

Our Mission

Our mission is to glorify God by creating a space where faith and fitness unite. We are committed to helping individuals strengthen their bodies, renew their minds, and grow in their relationship with Jesus.

Rooted in the truth of the Gospel, we aim to cultivate a community that pursues excellence in health, discipleship, and worship. Through prayer, encouragement, and intentional training, we equip people to live transformed lives — honoring God both inside and outside the gym.

We exist to build up the body of Christ, one workout, one prayer, and one act of worship at a time.

Our Vision

Our vision is to build more than a gym — we’re building a Christ-centered community where faith and fitness come together to transform lives from the inside out.

Through intentional community, biblical values, and a shared commitment to growth, we aim to impact our city and beyond.

Our Team

Everyone on our team brings a unique but necessary trait to the gym. Our trusted teammates have years of experience and a common goal- to see and love every person that walks through the doors and guide them on their journey to become the best version of themselves.

A short story about us

Our journey began with a simple but powerful vision that God placed on our hearts — to create a Christ-centered gym where everyone is welcome, faith is lived out daily, and community flourishes.

What started in our garage, with prayer, worship, and workouts, quickly grew into something bigger than we imagined. We are creating a space where fitness and faith come together in a unique and powerful way.

With Rami’s 15 years of experience in business and Alexa’s 7 years of experience in the fitness industry, including coaching, personal training and group fitness, we knew God was calling us to bring it all together for His glory.

This gym is more than a place to work out — it’s a home where lives are strengthened, faith is ignited, and community is built. What God started in our garage, He is growing into a movement that reaches far beyond our walls.
