For independent trainers

Bring your clients. Train them here.

The Club 312 is a private, strength-focused neighborhood gym in West Town — a home base for independent trainers who want a serious, uncrowded room for their clients.

Coaching before 8 a.m.?

We're particularly interested in trainers who want to coach early mornings. We'd especially like to hear from you.

  • Run your own independent business and bring your clients
  • $30 facility fee per session, paid by the trainer
  • Your clients don’t need a separate gym membership
  • Intentionally limited membership — an uncrowded floor
  • Trainers are vetted for professionalism and fit

Personal training

No open-gym membership needed. The waitlist doesn't apply to personal training — you can start with a trainer now.

Open-gym membership

A room that stays yours.

Open-gym memberships — memberships that don't include a personal trainer — are currently at capacity, and a waitlist is open. We cap membership on purpose: no waiting for racks, no fighting for space — just a serious room built for people who show up to train.
