Two Local Sisters Open Brand New Fitness Studio in Newtown Square: Class-Fit Studio (ClassFitStudio.com)

New Local Business! Class-Fit Studio Offers Personal Training, Private Group Training, Fitness Classes, Open Studio Hours, Kid Camps

Conveniently located in the heart of Newtown Square, Class-Fit Studio offers a personalized way to get in shape while still managing to keep up with your busy lifestyle! The brand new studio is owned and operated by two local sisters, Ann Marie & Kelly Catania. The daughters of two entrepreneurs and Delaware County natives, they had always dreamed of opening a business of their own. Both Ann Marie and Kelly attended Cardinal O’Hara High School (Class of ‘07 and ‘09, respectively), where Ann Marie danced in the shows, while Kelly was Cheer Captain. They loved staying active and would practice for hours each week. After high school, they each attended Saint Joseph’s University.

Ann Marie majored in Marketing and graduated in 2011 with her business degree. She eventually landed her dream job as an Event Planner at a popular casino where she learned so much. However, as the years went by she grew eager to start working on a business of her own. Though she was afraid to leave, it was time for a new challenge.

In the meantime, Kelly had graduated with a Communications Degree in 2013. She immediately got her Personal Training Certification and began training clients in their homes, while teaching classes at various gyms and centers. Kelly had dreams of helping people push themselves to become stronger and healthier. With years of coaching cheerleading in her past, she had a knack for motivating others.

They have even added “Open Studio Hours” where clients can come in at any point during these set times each day and work their way through a pre-set circuit of exercises. They will stay at each station for 45 seconds, and then take a 15 second break as they move to the next one. The instructors will help you as you push yourself to do a little more each time. Stay for 20 minutes or as long as you like – it’s up to you! This is a great way to fit in a quick workout. No more excuses about not having time.

Class-Fit Studio offers a referral program which encourages you to bring a friend. If you have a group that wants to work-out together, they will even put together a private group class just for you and your friends. Maybe it’s a bridal party getting ready for the big day, or a group of co-workers that want an after-hours teambuilding activity. No matter the reason, Class-Fit Studio will fully customize a plan for you!

Class-Fit Studio is proud to offer a friendly and supportive environment where everyone feels welcome.
