State-of-the-Art 33,000 SF Fitness Center to Open in Downtown Kansas City

KANSAS CITY, MO (December 27, 2013) – As the holiday season quickly approaches and New Year’s resolutions loom just around the corner, the Kansas City Power & Light District (District) with fitness pioneers Kirk and John Galiani proudly announce the addition of a new, full-service fitness center to Downtown, bringing the overall District to greater than 90% occupancy and offering Kansas City a new and exciting option for resolution fulfillment.

Onelife Fitness will open a 33,000 square foot fitness club this summer at the corner of 13th and Main Streets, on the second floor, directly above Cosentino’s Market. The full-service facility will feature state of the art equipment, a half-basketball court, yoga studio, resistance and core training, personal training, spa-inspired locker rooms. OneLife Fitness will also offer a roster of group exercise classes, including  zumba, yoga, pilates, group cycling, ,bodypump, kickboxing and more.  Like every Onelife Fitness center, this facility will feature the best of the best from fitness clubs throughout the world. OneLife members will also have access to the rooftop Jones Pool.

The fitness club will feature fantastic views of Main Street, the historic Midland Theater and the downtown skyline. It will be located adjacent to One Light, a 311-unit apartment building opening in 2015 at the corner of 13th and Walnut Streets, and just half a block from a streetcar stop.

“One of the things we take the greatest pride in is delivering best-in-class tenants to Kansas City,” said Nick Benjamin, Executive Director of the Kansas City Power & Light District. “It is only fitting that one of the nation’s best fitness center operations will opening in a premier Downtown development, directly above one of the nation’s best grocery store operations.  2013 was a great year for the Power & Light District and downtown in general, but with the addition of Onelife this summer and the start of construction of the One Light tower later this winter, 2014 is shaping up to be our best year yet.”

Onelife Fitness will be the first full service, large format fitness center to open in Kansas City’s revitalized downtown and will meet a growing need for lifestyle and fitness services created by the downtown residential population boom.

“Given the vibrant, energetic environment of both the Power and Light District and Onelife Fitness we are confident this is the perfect match,” said Kirk Galiani.

Construction of the 33,000 square foot fitness center will begin this winter and be complete by midsummer.
