Our method combines principles of strength training, cardio, barre, Pilates, and yoga. As our inspiring community expands through Alabama and beyond, True40® Studio encourages and empowers people to move true to their bodies, and ultimately step into their highest, truest selves.
Nestled in the heart of Gardendale, our bright and welcoming True40 Studio is more than just a place to work out—it’s a space where strength meets support, and where every movement is paired with belonging. This is the fitness studio Gardendale, Alabama residents have been waiting for: a boutique environment that celebrates progress, connection, and joy in every session. Our Gardendale owners Taylor Averhart and Sophia Cheatwood share some thoughts about our newest studio location below.
Gardendale is already full of ways to stay healthy—nutrition shops, vitamin stores, wellness clinics, and gyms. But what we noticed was missing was a true fitness community, especially for women. While some gyms do offer a sense of community, we often heard that women attend classes more for the people than for the workout itself.
Bringing True40 to Gardendale was important because connection matters just as much as the workout. Here, you don’t have to choose between feeling strong and feeling supported—you get both. At True40, you move your body in a way that feels good while belonging to a community that lifts you up along the way.
Gardendale families and professionals lead busy lives, often traveling to Birmingham or beyond for quality fitness classes. Now, with True40 in the heart of Gardendale, top-notch workouts are just a short drive—or even a walk—away.
At our gym in Gardendale, Alabama residents can enjoy:
True40 seamlessly fits into daily life, helping members prioritize their health without adding stress to their schedules.
