What You'll Get
Without gyms, people would resort to outdated fitness techniques such as swimming and pushing Model Ts up slight inclines. Celebrate contemporary fitness with today's Groupon: for $49, you get a two-month membership (a $108 value), one month of unlimited boot-camp classes (a $69 value), and a personal-training session (a $70 value) at HealthRidge Fitness (a $247 total value), located in Olathe.
HealthRidge Fitness encompasses 100,000 square feet of clean, modern frame-maintaining facilities, designed to help guests mold their muscles and peter their poundage. Members have full access to a wide range of health amenities including racquetball courts, swimming pools, a one-eighth-mile indoor track, and a battery of aerobic artillery each mounted with its own television and donut dangling just out of reach. Open group classes, such as yoga, Pilates, and cycling, offer more organized exertion, and a month of tri-weekly boot camp engenders more consistent camaraderie by utilizing group- and partner-based drills practiced by many professional athletes and military personnel. Orchestrating a diverse range of exercises in a goal-oriented setting, boot-camp workouts alternate between indoor and outdoor activities, resistance and aerobic workouts, and obstacle-strewn blundering and levitation, keeping cadets captivated and tricking muscles into a ripply state of confusion.
Taking a more motherly tack to toning, a one-on-one personal-training session employs the services of one of HealthRidge's certified trainers, tailoring programs to fit each client's abilities or tendency to sweat Mountain Dew. The spacious sports facility boasts a trepidation-free atmosphere, complete with scenic views of surrounding wildlife including a pond, trees, and seemingly peaceful fields in which vigilante deer await to test your newly acquired reflexes against their nimble karate hooves.
Reviews
Four Yelpers give HealthRidge Fitness a four-star average:
- HealthRidge Fitness Center is much more than just a gym, more than just a place to work out. It's a gym disguised as a country club (without the country club pricing)!! – Leesa G., Yelp, 4/2/10
- This gym is absolutely as good as it gets! – Zach C., Yelp, 1/26/11

About HealthRidge Fitness Center
HealthRidge Fitness Center is all about options. From more than 80 weekly group exercise classes to sprawling facilities that include a 1/8-mile indoor track, racquetball courts, and cardio machines with personal TVs, both beginning and advanced exercisers can find an activity that moves at their preferred pace. Guests get pumped up in boot-camp sessions taught by instructors who have been certified in a military-instructor training course led by Army National Guard master fitness trainer and staff sergeant Ken Weichert. To calm the mind, a yoga or Pilates class reduces stress while strengthening core muscles. The center also features a workout area and classes designed specifically for kids.
In warm weather, an outdoor pool decorated with a natural-looking rock formation invites swimmers to splash about a tranquil waterfall. Exercisers can unwind after a workout with a pedicure, a massage, or a facial at the Spa at HealthRidge, which has been named one of America’s Top 100 Spas by SpAwards. The café and lounge area offers nutritious meals and a cozy fireplace that is ideal for soothing achy muscles or burning cheat-day pages torn from food journals.
