History is an unusual topic for a Health Club and Personal Training Studio but that is probably because not many actually have a history. Elm Street Fitness started in Gillian Rowan's basement almost 20 years ago and moved to Elm Street in 1996. Her vision was to make her clients feel at home and that has never changed.
Foundations
Elm Street Fitness grew from STS Personal Training. That’s why the Elm Street logo has the “dancer” as the tree trunk in our logo. That dancer was the original logo of STS and it has now grown into a health club while keeping the feeling reflected in our original mission statement:
...a unique private health and fitness facility located in the center of McLean. STS, “Your Health Club Alternative,” has created a comfortable, supportive environment for the finest in personal training.
Reflections
15 years is a long life for a personal training studio. We have trainers and clients who started before that in the basement. Throughout all those years we have had people ask for classes and access to equipment without a trainer and we were unable to accommodate them because our space would not permit it. Now we can and we invite them and you to stop by and see what we have become.
