We had the good fortune of connecting with Kelly and Ally and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kelly and Ally, how does your business help the community?
Let’s face it—life can be hectic and finding time to focus on health and wellness is challenging. People often struggle to find a place where they can genuinely connect with others, improve their fitness, and feel part of something bigger. The isolation of the pandemic made this even harder, leaving many feeling disconnected and out of sorts.

Imagine feeling stuck in a rut, longing for a place to sweat it out, have fun, and be surrounded by supportive, like-minded individuals. Picture those days where you just want to find a place where fitness meets friendship, but all you encounter are uninspiring gyms and cookie-cutter classes. It’s frustrating and disheartening, right?

Enter Vibe Fitness—a sanctuary where fitness, fun, and community collide. Founded by two best friends with a shared vision, Vibe has become a vibrant hub for transforming lives. We’ve created a space where people gather, connect, and improve their health and wellness, all while having a blast. Whether you’re dancing your heart out in one of our classes or connecting with new friends, Vibe Fitness is where good vibes truly change lives.

With our professional virtual platform, we’ve taken our mission global, offering classes and workshops to participants and instructors all over the world. We’ve broken down geographical barriers and created a worldwide community that shares our passion for dance fitness. Now, anyone, anywhere, can join in on the fun and feel the positive energy of Vibe Fitness.

After three decades in the fitness and studio dance industries, we’ve seen firsthand the power of wellness to transform lives. Our studio isn’t just a place to work out; it’s a place where people come together to uplift and inspire each other. We offer a wide range of classes and programs, from Tribe Team Training and Thrive Wellness Coaching to Nutrition and Women’s Wellness Workshops, ensuring there’s something for everyone.

We’re proud to be a small business fueling the economic growth of our community while also making a global impact. Every day, we flood the dance floor with love, laughter, and lasting memories, all while helping our members achieve their fitness goals.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
At Vibe Fitness, we’re more than just a fitness studio; we’re a family. Our story is one of friendship, passion, and an unwavering dedication to making fitness fun and accessible for all. We believe that good vibes change lives, and we strive to create an environment where everyone feels empowered to be their best selves.

The heartbeat of Vibe Fitness is our vibrant community of instructors and participants. A welcoming, positive atmosphere makes everyone feel included. As proud community builders, we value diversity and acceptance, fostering an inclusive environment that’s unlike any other studio. Our classes and programs are expertly designed for everybody and every body. This uniqueness and special quality define who we are!

Challenges and obstacles are a part of our journey, much like most small businesses. Over the years, we’ve learned to pivot, take risks, and step out on faith. This incredible adventure has been full of laughs and tears—sometimes all in the same day! However, each day brings new experiences, growth, trials, and successes. Every twist and turn is a valuable stepping stone. Today, we’re proud to be an award-winning studio with Best of City, County, and State Awards under our belt. The lessons we’ve learned? Embrace the unknown, cherish each small victory, and always dance through it all with a smile.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
As BFF’s, naturally our favorite activities involve dancing (no shocker there). We also share a love for gardening, paddle-boarding, and playing games. When we’re out and about, supporting fellow small businesses is a must. Atlanta is full of hidden gems, but for us, it’s all about who you’re with, not where you go. Because, let’s be honest, friends make everything more fun!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
No great journey is traveled alone, and our story is no exception. While we love to dream big and bring our creative ideas to life, there’s one person who truly deserves a shoutout for making it all possible: David Henderson.

Every dreamer needs a doer, and in the whirlwind of our creativity, there are times when our big ideas seem too lofty to land.

It’s always David—our rock, our balance, and the ultimate forward thinker. His favorite response to our crazy ideas? “I’ll see what I can do.” And he always does. David is up-to-date with the latest tech and tirelessly finds ways to bridge fitness with innovation. His calm demeanor under pressure and knack for research ensure that every project is not only feasible but also successful.

David is more than just a problem-solver. His organizational skills and analytical mind keep us grounded. His decisiveness, empathy, and understanding help maintain harmony, even in chaotic times. As a patient teacher, he guides us through challenges, turning potential roadblocks into stepping stones.

So here’s to David—our unsung hero who deserves credit and recognition in our story. Thank you for your unwavering support, mentorship, and for always finding a way to make our dreams a reality. We couldn’t do it without you!
