A different place to workout and get fit: Cannon Ridge Training Center
Tucked away on the 3rd floor of a non descript building, at the end of a dead-end side road is Fairfield County’s best kept fitness and self-defense facility. While it doesn’t look like much from the outside, inside the building’s depths is a 6000 sq foot workout center unlike any other.
If you are looking for a workout change, a new group of like-minded fitness friends, a fast way to lose weight or tone up, a place to have fun and learn some new moves than this could very well become your second home.
In fact the clients are so excited about this rare find; they are hard pressed to share it and its locations with friends and family. Not to mention there are no contracts, initiation fees or uniforms to purchase.
