History
Established in 2013.
Ripxfit Started on 2013 as a personal training studio in downtown Wilmington with just one group class a day. After falling in love with obstacle races and overgrow my last space, I decided to take a chance and get a bigger and awesome facility and to acquire equipment that help us prepare our clients in a more holistic way for obstacle races and mud-runs. We offers a 24 feet fully equip rig that allow us to have a full class training by this magnificent piece of equipment. We also offers a traverse wall to add more fun to our workouts! Come check us out!
Meet the Business Owner: Jean Pierre S.
After working on commercial gyms for 10 years (In the United States and Chile), I saw how on these gyms their clients are look more like numbers than people. For that reasons, I decided to do the big jump and moved to a more personalize fitness studio. I learned a lot from that experience, but I still needed something that reflected better my personal way to train my clients and develop my own training style. That is how Ripxfit started! I build my clients from the basics and I try to teach and coach the best foundation as possible, I am very picky about form and I take my time before create excessive amount of intensity like other gyms do. For me it is about the journey and it is about make fitness fun. At Ripxfit the workouts are effective, challeging but also very very entertaining. We offers periodical clinics and seminars as well, to keep our clients engage and motivated.
