Fitness is a focus at Fairbanks Ranch. Whether the member is a golfer trying to improve flexibility, a tennis player looking to build stamina or someone simply interested in maintaining a healthy lifestyle, the Club has fitness choices. Beginning May 1, members may participate in one of our fitness classes, use our fitness facility or work with their own trainer in the workout facility or on the Equestrian lawn. In our Fitness Center, members may use top-notch fitness equipment and free weights that allow you to focus on each body part.

Fairbanks Ranch fitness classes are designed to increase overall body conditioning, flexibility and core strength for golfers, tennis players and anyone wanting the energy and strength to enjoy life. Enhancement of sports performance is key, and even more important is the ability to move all daily activities with mindfulness, healthy nutrition, fewer injuries and less muscle soreness.
