Our studio is dedicated to our members and their unique fitness journey. Here, you will find a variety of classes at times to suit your schedule, at a fraction of the cost of other gyms in town.

From low impact to high, cardio to strength building, slow to fast-paced.there is a perfect "fit" for you. We offer a variety of classes including Strength Training, Cardio, Zumba, Yoga, and Barre. In addition, our Functional Fitness class will appeal to those who are just starting out in fitness, prefer a lower intensity, or need a "bridge" to a higher level.

In addition, several of our classes are available via live stream or on-demand videos. We periodically add new classes to the schedule based on popularity and fitness trends. This ballet-inspired fitness class mixes elements of Pilates, dance, Yoga, and functional training to generate optimal results.

You can burn fat, build muscle and workout effectively without the aid of machines. Achieve results with our trainers using free weights, steps, kettlebells, Bosu balls, resistance bands, TRX and more.
A native of Howardville, Missouri, Alandis graduated High School in New Madrid, Missouri and attended Central Community College in Fort Dodge, Iowa. He chose to settle in Columbia in 2007, and began his professional career in fitness. Growing up without a father gave Alandis drive to become a role model and mentor to young people, as well as a leader and example to those he trains.
Our fitness center isn't looking to be the same as everyone else, and you shouldn't want us to be. At Fit Central, we continue to look for ways to strengthen the relationship with our clients, keeping them focused on their goals and wanting to come back for more! We can not wait to see you in class!

Fit Central is a group fitness class type of setup, everything from yoga, zumba, cardio classes and strength classes, with two studio rooms. The instructors there are great, the vibe is unmatched and they keep it very clean in there, rooms, hallways and bathrooms, also they have childcare access, which is fantastic.

Fit Central is the best. I’ve been a member at other gyms in the past. None offered what this gym does. The classes are fun with excellent, energetic instructors who motivate. The owner is kind and caring and the members are friendly. If you’re looking for a place to support getting or staying in shape, this is the place.

A few years ago I joined them for a 6 month membership. Just a few weeks in I sustained a knee injury and had to discontinue. I even produced medical evidence that I had to seek physiotherapy for it. They believed me but refused to give me a partial refund.
Poor business practice!!

Fit Central provides a fun, energetic workout in a clean and safe gym. Kristina Schafer-Mills is the absolute best instructor ever! Her classes are both fun and energized! She takes a personal interest in all of her students. This gym is the cleanest and friendliest gym in Columbia. I love the total Workout provided by Fit Central.

The cleanest gym ever! Even childcare is super sanitary! The instructors are motivating, and the group classes make you WANT to show up and work out. A one of a kind gym, driven by the power of community and small business love. Excellent specials change monthly, and are the perfect way to sample the variety of classes offered... I'm hooked!
