On January 31, UFC Gym celebrated the grand opening and ribbon cutting of their newest Alhambra location with the Alhambra Chamber of Commerce, marking the official debut of what has become the most pre-registered UFC Gym in the world. Hundreds of residents came out on opening day, packing the brand new three story gym to get a workout in, meet UFC fighters Carla Esparza and Forrest Griffin, take part in fighting demos, enter giveaways, and more.
Guests were welcomed by UFC Gym Worldwide CEO Adam Sedlack and Alhambra location manager Brian Sherman, as the community cheered them on in their official ribbon cutting and opening of business. “I thank the city of Alhambra for embracing us so nicely,” shared Sherman. “We’re gonna do our best to help you get acclimated, get fit, be happy, and get results.”
Sedlack echoed their thankfulness for the local community and enthusiasm to be part of the city. “We are very excited about being in Alhambra. When we had the opportunity to look at this location, we first surveyed the community and it became very clear that this community is absolutely amazing. It’s really about a village coming together to create a special community, and that’s exactly what happened. We leave today knowing that we’re gonna be able to create a lot of amazing relationships going forward, and it’s so important for us to give back to our community, not just today but as we move forward.”
Past the opening day, the Alhambra UFC Gym is positioning itself as a full-service fitness destination for residents of all experience levels. The gym offers group fitness classes, personal trainers, kids programs, combat sports instruction, and recovery rooms, all aimed at uplifting the active fitness scene in Alhambra and nearby cities. In the coming months, an outdoor pool is slated to open, further expanding the fitness opportunities offered, with expected additional classes and programming.
Beyond the excitement and activity that the new business brings to Downtown Alhambra, UFC Gym represents health, wellness, and active living options for residents of all ages and experience levels. As the excitement of the opening day rush settles, the gym’s presence plays an ongoing role in strengthening the overall well-being of the Alhambra community through healthier lifestyles.
