Change Is Good: The New Alexandria Wellness
Thank you so much for the overwhelming support for our big news last week. All of us at Alexandria Wellness and Fitness on the Run are grateful and appreciate your 15 years of support to help Alexandrians get strong and well — for good! As we enter our new chapter, we continue to be dedicated to your wellness, fitness, strength and building a lifestyle of healthy and meaningful habits.
Like any big change, there has been an array of emotions around our announcement. To me, this means Fitness on the Run has made a difference in your life. Yay! And, Alexandria Wellness plans to do the same – and more!
Yet there is also confusion, which is understandable.
We hope this communication will clear the air and help you determine your next steps for health, wellness, fitness and a conscious choice for your lifestyle.
The New Alexandria Wellness
On September 15, Alexandria Wellness will move to 215 North Payne Street to begin our journey to changing the face of wellness in Alexandria. Adrien Cotton, founder of Fitness on the Run and Alexandria Wellness (AW), is teaming up with Christopher Campagna, President & CEO of Braddock Commercial Real Estate Solutions to launch Alexandria’s first-of-its-kind premier wellness shared workspace community at 215 North Payne Street. As a team, Chris brings years of experience as a pioneer in developing innovative solutions in commercial real estate while Adrien brings 15+ years as one of Alexandria’s premier wellness gurus. Chris is creating an amazing space to serve those in Alexandria seeking to prioritize wellness and Adrien is thrilled to be his first partner.
Designed to drive efficiency, productivity and critical work-life balance, 215 North Payne Street will enable small and medium-sized businesses to attract and retain top talent in a space that provides private workspaces, conference rooms, sound proof phone booths and much, much more. The anchor of the building will be a gym, similar in look and feel to Fitness on the Run, that embraces their shared philosophy: open layout and only essential equipment. There is also outdoor work and workout space and a café providing healthy food service.
Check out this awesome rendering of the “Loop”, Alexandria’s one-of-a-kind wellness, workspace and café all under one roof.
