30 YEARS OF MOVEMENT. COMMUNITY. AND BELONGING.

Inside Out • Midtown Memphis • Est. 1996

IT STARTED WITH A DIFFERENT IDEA OF WHAT A GYM COULD BE.

Inside Out opened in Midtown Memphis in 1996 with a simple belief: going to the gym shouldn't feel intimidating.

It was built for people at every level—from experienced athletes to people walking into a gym for the first time. Members could train on their own, take a class, work with a trainer, learn something new, and figure out what worked for them.

From the beginning, the philosophy went beyond the workout.

Body. Mind. Spirit.

Taking care of yourself meant looking at the whole person—not just sets, reps, miles, or pounds.

That philosophy also shaped the community. Trainers got to know their clients. Members got to know each other. People brought their families, their friends—and sometimes their dogs. They trained for races, celebrated milestones, tried new things, took breaks, came back, and kept moving.

Over 30 years, fitness has changed and Inside Out has changed with it. Strength training, cycling, yoga, boxing, rowing, TRX, Pilates, personal training, group training, workshops and new ideas have all found a place here.

The constant has been the people - and the belief that there should be a place for you here.

THE PEOPLE ARE THE STORY.

A New Chapter

In 2026, the story moves forward with Inside Out by Envision.

Envision has its own Memphis roots and is driven by a belief that movement can change lives and that fitness should have passion, purpose, and soul. Build strength. Keep learning. Stay curious. Create a place where you want to show up.

Inside Out and Envision have grown along different paths, but they share a belief in personal, purposeful fitness and the freedom to find what works for you.

Now, those two stories come together.

We're carrying forward the spirit, relationships, and traditions that make Inside Out what it is, alongside the energy, care, and belief that drive Envision. We keep moving, training, teaching, learning, and exploring what's possible.

Inside Out by Envision is the next chapter of a Memphis fitness story that started 30 years ago - and continues to evolve.

 

FIND YOUR MOVE.

Whatever moves you, there’s a place for it here.
