John Reed Fitness: It took me a moment to realize how surprisingly lively things were on a Tuesday afternoon at John Reed, given that the grand opening of the Dallas fitness club was still days away.
I was too distracted by the spectacle – the Tulum-inspired interiors, the towering cyborgs of Adam and Eve, and the mood-setting light displays. There’s a lot to take in beyond gym equipment. It’s an atmosphere.
John Reed’s team attributes the gym’s early buzz to a video posted to Instagram last week offering a glimpse of the 30,000-square-foot space.
“It was like wildfire after that,” an employee explained as we descended into the main fitness club area (club being the key word).
