Our Story

Poised Fitness softly opened in September of 2022, with about 5 members, in a baseball facility in Gunter, TX that operated without air conditioning or heating.

Our owner, Charity Smith’s aspiration was to introduce a balanced group training program to the Gunter community, fostering unity and connection through fitness. Charity offered 3 classes each week consisting of 2 functional strength classes and one Piyo class.

In November 2023 Poised Fitness added two more instructors, several more class options and moved into a facility that better suited their program (with climate control!)

Poised Fitness currently exists at the group exercise room inside the Bridges Golf Club Fitness Center and it’s slowly transformed into a true “fitness studio.”

Today, the program now has 3 total instructors, with 1 more joining the team soon and offers early morning classes and late morning classes. More early morning classes and evening classes will be opening in the fall of 2024.

As instructors join the Poised Fitness team, the program will continue to expand. Poised Fitness is now a vibrant community of 30-40 members who are dedicated to their fitness journey.

Our fitness members are the heartbeat of our program, inspiring us every day with their dedication, perseverance, and positive energy.
