Our Mission at Urban Athlete is to give our members a different type of workout. Our training classes and sessions use a mix of old school training methods along with the latest functional strength training principles that help individuals who train with us greatly improve their fitness in addition to building confidence and discipline. We are an independent, member-oriented, semi-private training facility staffed with professional and experienced fitness and performance coaches, who recognize members by name. A fully equipped gym, unique training style, and a friendly and supportive community make Urban Athlete the type of place that makes one actually look forward to their fitness or performance training.

Who We Are
The vision of Urban Athlete began in June 2005, its conception was based around a style of training that didn’t fit inside a traditional gym setting. In order to provide our clients with the best training style that produced the goals they were expecting from a gym setting, Urban Athlete opened its doors in beautiful Mt Airy, Philadelphia in January 2006. Urban Athlete is a unique fitness/training facility located minutes away from Chestnut Hill, Germantown, Glenside, Wyndmoor, Wyncote, Lafayette Hill, and East Falls.
Urban Athlete has always had a very unique feel, not only its workouts and training style but also because of the members that make up the family-like community. Please meet the staff below, who are a large part of the unique atmosphere that you will experience as a member of Urban Athlete.
