Who Are We?

We're proud to be the leading fitness provider in DeSoto County, evolving our programming and facilities to reflect the latest trends in the fitness industry. The DeSoto Athletic Club opened its doors in 1999, opening the first health club of its kind in DeSoto County. Today, we still operate under the same ownership but the club itself has gone through many evolutions since its opening date. Thank you for visiting our careers page. We would love to have you as a part of our team. Not only are we a team; we are family.

Our Mission:

Our mission is simple: to be the best part of our member's day, everyday. We understand that our mission statement could mean something different to each one of our members; from a genuine greeting upon entering the club, to delivering a world class experience during one of our Group Exercise classes, to something as simple as opening the club on time. We pride ourselves on delivering exceptional customer service and acknowledge that committing to an exercise regime is hard work. We believe that our job is to make it as pleasurable as possible and to be the best part of our member's day, everyday.

Our Purpose:

We exist for one reason, and that is to constantly challenge and lead our members to achieve the highest level of sustainable fitness they can reach. We have an obligation to our members to provide a safe environment and to help as many as we can reach their fitness goals and beyond.
