About Us
At Forged By Fire, we believe fitness is about more than just working out—it's about becoming stronger physically, mentally, and spiritually. Our mission is to provide a welcoming community where people of all fitness levels can challenge themselves, build confidence, and pursue a healthier lifestyle.
We offer coach-led group fitness classes, Spartan DEKA training, strength and conditioning programs, and specialized classes designed for all ages and abilities. Whether you're just starting your fitness journey or looking to take your training to the next level, you'll find encouragement, and accountability every step of the way.
At Forged By Fire, you're not just joining a gym—you're becoming part of a family committed to helping each other grow stronger together.
Come experience the difference and see why our members say it's more than a workout—it's a community.
Our Mission
We believe that true transformation happens when people are challenged, supported, and connected to a purpose greater than themselves. Through expert coaching, meaningful relationships, and a Christ-centered foundation, we strive to inspire our members to live healthier, stronger, and more impactful lives both inside and outside the gym.
Our goal is simple: to forge strength, build character, and create a community that grows together.
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.
