Ambition Fitness takes the intimidation out of weights by specializing in strength training for women. Our 45-minute classes combine high-intensity resistance training, premium indoor cycling, and concert-level music for the workout you can't get enough of. Not your average spin class. We combine beat-driven rides with Coach by Color power zones for personalized data, endurance and power training.
Our workouts are designed for scalability, meaning all fitness levels can work at their own pace and progress over time. Our 3,000 square foot studio offers the privacy the traditional weight section lacks, evidence-based workouts that sculpt and tone the female physique, and a clean, modern aesthetic to elevate your gym experience.

Infrared is the invisible light emitted from the sun that makes you feel warm and provides research-proven health benefits. Unlike traditional saunas that simply heat the air around you, infrared waves penetrate your joints, muscle and tissue to heat the body from within. Our sauna raises your core temperature by 3 degrees, producing the same physiological responses as cardiovascular exercise.

This place is awesome! I love the dark room, loud music and intense workouts. I always leave feeling confident and like I did something good for myself. All the instructors are awesome and everyone is friendly!
Great place for women to workout without feeling insecure and worrying about others watching them, everyone gets in the zone and gets it done. Great for beginners all the way to advanced!

Ambition Fitness is the BEST gym in Louisville. I could go on for days about how much I love this place. They focus on women empowerment, getting stronger both physically and mentally, and pushing you outside of your comfort zone. The trainers are so motivational and helpful! Its a judgment free zone and I highly suggest you give it a try. It’s my favorite 45 minutes of everyday!

Beautiful studio and awesome people! Ambition has an amazing community of women that have really been a saving grace during COVID. Between their digital studio and in person classes there really is something for everyone and you’re guaranteed to get a great workout. I’m so grateful for this studio and the wonderful women who fill it!

When a friend first mentioned Ambition Fitness to me, and showed me pictures of the gym I was intimated. I said “that’s a gym for women who are already in great shape”. She convinced me to take one class and after that I was hooked. Ambition Fitness is a safe space for women to train hard, sweat it out, and support one another. A place without body shame; where no goal is too small. The trainers never fail to make you feel uplifted and root you on (or call you out because they know you can step it up 😆). I don’t know about you, but that’s the motivation I need! From my first class

Ambition Fitness is one of the best workout studios I have been to. I initially viewed weight training to be intimidating, but Katie and the coaches are SO knowledgeable and encouraging and I come out of each workout feeling so strong and confident thanks to them! The community of women that make up Ambition are also so supportive and I am so grateful I found Ambition and these ladies!

Amazing and Beautiful gym! I joined back in January and it had been about 6-7 years since I had been in a gym or worked out! I was so intimidated but when I had my first class, they made me feel so welcomed and comfortable doing the workouts. It is such a great atmosphere to be in. Katie, the owner, has an amazing heart and personality. The trainers here are so loving and really care about making sure you are doing each workout with correct form. I love that this gym is made for women and the workout program is made by women! They have BOMB music every time I attend a workout class which just gives

I've met many disappointments in my search for a women's gym that provides a positive environment where women can actually be challenged and not limited to a few light weights and some dusty cardio machines. I had the opportunity to visit Ambition when visiting from out of town and got to check out the lower body class. The studio is clean, well laid out, and well equipped. The program was dynamic, challenging, and motivating. Great mix of cardio and strength that kept me engaged the entire time. They have an excellent range of equipment and- gasp- REAL weights! Outside of the great workout

Growing up I was always playing sports so staying I shape was never something that I had to worry about until I graduated high school. I had just recently moved back to Louisville and I was struggling to get back to a point where I could say that I was honestly happy where I was in my life. This gym has changed my life for the better in so many ways! I never thought that I would actually look forward to going to the gym, let alone at 6 AM every day. This gym has given me accountability, friends, and confidence that I will never be able to repay them for.

This gym is absolutely amazing. The instructors are so friendly, and the owner, Katie, is the sweetest. She really knows her stuff and is super personable! After just a few months of being a member at Ambition, I have seen great results. Not only am I stronger, but I am also more confident and EXCITED to go to the gym. Highly recommend!!!

I have been working out for years and lifting consistently for the last few. "Boutique Fitness" centers are continuing to grow and pop up all over town. I have tried Orange Theory, F45 + others and enjoyed them all but something about Ambition felt like home. The studio is gorgeous, the trainers are certified personal trainers and the workouts are a combination of strength and HIIT (my personal favorites). Katie, the owner, is personable, kind and has incredible customer service. I have had several friends and family members join me for their free class and a few who have joined with

I LOVE ambition! I have tried other gyms, like Orange Theory and others that are classes based. With this gym being a woman's only gym, I feel like this is my get away. This is my place to to feel ambitious and get out of my comfort zone! I tried my first class for free, and I loved it so much that I joined and have been a member now for 3 months. It's also locally owned by Katie, she's super sweet and knows all of her clients by name! She loves and cares for her clients. Highly recommend Ambition!!
