Wayne Fitness Center Still Works to Build Back Up After COVID-19

Like many gyms in the region, La Maison Health and Fitness in Wayne is still building back up from COVID-19 closures as it deals with lower enrollments and supply chain costs, writes Erin McCarthy for the Philadelphia Inquirer. 

However, the biggest headache for the owners was the equipment. 

“If a treadmill went down, trying to get the replacement parts” was a challenge, said Lisa Alberta, marketing director for La Maison. 

The gym saw a steep decline in membership, which halved from pre-pandemic 4,000 to the current 2,000. To offset this member drop-off, La Maison implemented three levels of membership, including cheaper and more expensive options. 

Owning the building and not having to worry about rent was also immensely helpful.
