Butterfly Life, a women’s fitness club, opened at 3000 US Hwy 64 West, Suite 118, in Lakeside Plaza.

The new club is designed for women who are interested in attaining simple, achievable results in a nurturing, non-threatening environment.

Members will enjoy the club’s innovative approach to providing “Healthy Living Solutions for Women,” which encompass everything from fitness, health, and nutrition to beauty, fashion, and psychology, all under one roof.

“The Butterfly Life concept of developing an integrated approach to women’s fitness, weight loss, and healthy living, was created by a team of pioneers boasting more than a century of industry experience,” club owners Annette Downer and Karie Clayton said. “Butterfly Life understands that weight loss is only one component of a healthy life, so that’s why the program was developed with an integrated, 360-degree approach to accommodating all components of women’s fitness and health.”

The club is equipped with an exclusive 15-station, strength- and cardio-training circuit that has been custom designed and is fully adjustable to meet the needs of women at all levels.

In 30 minutes, members complete a well-balanced circuit that works the entire body efficiently and effectively, the owners said.

Butterfly Life membership rates are competitive in the industry with other women’s programs.
