Get ready to shift gears and power up your fitness journeys. The Garage, one of downtown Statesboro’s beloved gyms, has moved to a new location at 202 W. Main St. Despite their change in location, The Garage is still committed to offering high-quality fitness classes and a hospitable environment. With a background in athletics and CrossFit, Christina Gipson aims to create an environment in The Garage that embraces the transformative power of fitness, both physically and mentally.

The philosophy behind The Garage is rooted in celebrating progress and wins, no matter the size. Whether it is moving from knee-push ups to full-push ups or advancing to more challenging exercises, like ring muscle-ups, emphasis is placed on the positive impact frequent small victories have on mental health and well-being. In life, regular achievements can be hard to come by, but in the supportive environment of The Garage, members can consistently experience small yet meaningful moments of success. 

What truly sets The Garage apart is its warm, welcoming atmosphere. While other gyms may stop at surface-level introductions, The Garage is built on fostering genuine connections. “When someone new walks into the gym, everyone is going to come see who they are,” said Gipson, “it doesn’t matter how old they are or their fitness level, everyone is welcome.

The Garage is all about energizing group-based workout classes that keep people motivated and moving. The different types of classes include: (1.) Barbells and Sweat, which hones in on form and barbell movement, (2.) GarageFit, a dynamic CrossFit-style class designed to challenge participants in weightlifting, cardio, and gymnastics, (3.) Stamina, which gets member heart rates elevated and keeps it there, and (4.) Bodybuilding, which are progressive resistance exercises to control and develop muscle. Whether you’re aiming to lift heavier or move faster, The Garage has a class that will help you crush your fitness.

Looking ahead, The Garage will be hosting Faith and Fitness events and Self-Defense classes, open to the community in the new year. These events are designed to encourage both physical and mental strength, and we’re excited to offer these opportunities for anyone who wants to join. Additionally, during the month of November, we’re waiving all sign-up fees, making it the perfect time to get started on your fitness journey.
