About us

A gym that feels like the neighborhood

Petworth Fitness is a community gym in the heart of Petworth, Washington, DC. Coached classes, personal training, and round-the-clock open gym — with a crew that actually knows your name.

Upshur St.

Heart of Petworth

Work hard. Get fit. Do cool sh*t.

That's not just a slogan on the wall — it's how the room runs. We built Petworth Fitness to be the opposite of an intimidating big-box gym: a place where the workouts are serious, the coaching is real, and nobody cares where you're starting from. You bring the effort. We'll bring the plan, the energy, and a community that shows up for each other.

Six coached class formats cover strength, conditioning, cardio, and recovery. Add personal training when you want one-on-one attention, and 24/7 open gym for the days you want to do your own thing. One membership, every option, in one neighborhood spot on Upshur St.

What we're about

How we run the room

Everyone's welcome

No egos, no gatekeeping. Whether it's day one or year ten, you belong on this floor.

Coaching, not just classes

Real programming and real coaches who scale the work and watch your form — so you get better, safely.

Neighborhood first

We're a Petworth gym for Petworth people. The community is the whole point.

Train your way

Six formats, personal training, and 24/7 open gym — build the routine that actually fits your life.

“I'm really glad to have found Petworth Fitness. The vibe I get from this place is that everyone here is welcome, regardless of where you are in your fitness journey.”
