Helping Pittsburgh Communities Thrive One Life At A Time

A new fitness experience is coming to life in the Pittsburgh area, and thanks to a grant from Highmark Foundation in partnership with the Family Life Center Inc., it will be able to provide subsidized classes and dietary coaching for community members. The facility will feature High Intensity Interval Training, group fitness classes and provide educational content to help attract and engage community participation.

Our Plan was to create a fitness experience that supports the community and fills the void of dietary support, which many community members don’t have access to,” said Mark Lay, Program Manager. “A huge part of taking care of yourself is how you eat, and that part is normally left out of the gym experience. We aim to bridge the gap.

The program, called “The Three Rivers Fitness Care Program” will serve the Pittsburgh and Beaver Valley areas, and will hold daily classes with free parking and easy bus-line access.

One unique aspect of our program is that it is supported by both grant funding, and a for profit component that will ensure long term sustainability,” said Lay. “By putting together people from all walks of life in a highly collaborative fitness setting, it takes the stigma out of the fact that the program is subsidized .

The Program will hold an Open House at the facility downtown on Saturday, January 11th and will feature VIP’s as well as a host of other local celebrities. Healthy food and drinks provided all day, along with fitness demos and dietary coaching sessions. “We encourage people to come down to have fun and find out what this program has to offer.” Said Lay
