Anytime Fitness gym in Fort Mill

Joining our team in the fall of 2021, Erika has always loved team sports and athletics. She played soccer throughout her childhood and added field hockey in high school. Erika graduated from Old Dominion University with a BS in Exercise Science and a minor in Psychology, and it was there that she began her career in health and wellness through fitness. Erika says, “I’ve had the pleasure of working as a P.E. coach for home schoolers, a personal trainer, a group fitness instructor, and for Navy Fitness as a fitness specialist and a fitness coordinator.” As a matter of fact, at her job in Navy Fitness, is where she met her husband! From Norfolk, VA they moved to Camp Lejuene in Jacksonville, NC and then to Matthews, NC. “We love it here! We spend most of our time working out, visiting friends and family and backpacking through the mountains!”

Formally a chemical process engineer of 14 years, Louis made the leap from corporate America to business ownership in early 2013. "I felt something missing in my life working in corporate America. I wanted to leave my mark in the world in a way that was more meaningful to me and that career simply wasn’t giving me the fulfillment I was looking for, which led me to owning my first fitness club!". Louis has his BS in chemical engineering but sports, playing his saxophone & studying music have always been a huge part of his life. Now, 10+ years after becoming an entrepreneur, he has expanded his dreams & desires of bringing a premier fitness experience to local communities through multi-club ownership. "Owning multiple clubs now, allows me to serve more communities, shining an important light on the critical role a healthy, active lifestyle plays in long-term quality of life. I’m excited to help so many more members achieve their goals and realize their potential through fitness!"
