Senergy Fitness

Voted best gym in N. Atl

Since 1996, Senergy Fitness has been helping people in North Atlanta look better, feel better and get healthier through personal training, group HIIT training and lifestyle coaching. In 2016, Senergy opened its first studio in Alpharetta, having operated out of commercial health clubs since its inception. The move to a private studio allowed Senergy to provide the premium services it longed to provide in a first class facility to a like minded community without the crowds (and other less than ideal things) associated with commercial health clubs.

Our mission is to deliver unbelievable results and an unforgettable experience to every single client. We do this by providing very unique, high energy group HIIT training programs and highly personalized, safe and effective semi-private personal training sessions. We combine strength training, HIIT training, nutrition, accountability, motivation, community and FUN for the ultimate fitness experience! Our clients’ results speak for themselves.
