Just as the mythical story of Phoenix rising from the ashes, so is a local Gold Canyon Arizona fitness studio, rising back up from the recession after being beat-down by the economic downturn and former competition from local bigger box establishments. Local Gold Canyon Arizona residents, Thomas and Mary Lynn Priess, owners of Peralta Fitness for several years, like many other small businesses, were hit hard as the national recession came blasting through Arizona. Arizona, being one of the hardest hit states, has seen many small businesses closing, many families losing homes, losing jobs and cutting back on all expenditures possible, just to keep afloat. Gym fees and personal training were expenses that were lopped off of many budgets right away. Peralta Fitness had also seen completion from a larger gym establishment in the area.
During the worst of the economic upheaval, while Peralta Fitness was never closed, Thomas and Mary Lynn, had to cut back dramatically the hours they kept their fitness studio open and had to take steps to supplement their own incomes by becoming wait staff at a local Mesa Arizona Applebees in order to personally survive. In the time span of the recession, one of the local bigger box competitors, another local Gold Canyon fitness facility abruptly closed, with patrons of that facility finding a note taped to the front door one Sunday door, saying the establishment had been forced to close due to economic conditions.
Despite there still being a couple bigger box, national chain fitness facilities within a 15 minute drive from Gold Canyon, there is nothing besides Peralta Fitness right in Gold Canyon that addresses people’s health and fitness needs. And there is no other facility anywhere near Gold Canyon that offers the studio, boutique type atmosphere that is offered by Peralta Fitness. With the personal one-on-one type fitness facility offered by Peralta Fitness, clientele can privately train, plus be coached as to exactly the type of routine needed to achieve their fitness goals. In an effort to make personalized fitness more affordable to more people.
As part of their ramping back up program, Peralta Fitness has lowered their fees and have some inexpensive intro packages of 4 sessions for only $100.00. There are no sign-up fees, no long term contracts and clients only pay for the time they are actually in the studio with a trainer working out.
