BOOSTBC Local Spotlight |Stronger Together | Welcome to Lake Country New Gym | TAEM FITNESS
Let us introduce TAEM Fitness who’s opening its doors with a mission rooted in passion, purpose, and community. Founded by lifelong fitness enthusiasts who have long dreamed of creating a space of their own, TAEM Fitness’s space will bring together years of experience and a deep commitment to wellness.

Michael, a business owner since his early twenties, has always kept fitness at the centre of their lives. The turning point that pushed them to move forward came after a traumatic accident involving her daughter last year; witnessing her recovery journey opened their eyes to a broader community that needs a safe, well-functioning, judgment-free space focused not only on fitness, but also on wellness and recovery.
Fitness influences far more than just daily routines; it shapes mindset, longevity, mood, and the body’s ability to recover. For TAEM Fitness, it has become increasingly clear that truly all-inclusive facilities, where every individual can show up for their own personal “why,” are surprisingly rare. This understanding drives their mission to create a space that embraces every journey, every goal, and every person who walks through their doors. The TAEM Fitness family stated that “TAEM's intention is to be this space for all ages, levels and goals. The small wins in everyday life are often the things we really want to celebrate and we are here for it!”.

Drawing from years of their own gym experiences and plenty of conversations with the community, TAEM Fitness has crafted a space with a fun, welcoming vibe that doesn’t single out any group, but instead celebrates everyone. Their layout, equipment, and staff have been intentionally chosen to meet people exactly where they are. TAEM Fitness is creating “ home away from home, where you can show up for yourself no matter what is going on in your life. Mental health matters just as much as physical well-being and we are not naive to this fact”. TAEM Fitness proudly opens their doors to every age, every background, and every fitness goal. There may be days when members can’t quite cheer themselves on, Don’t worry TAEM Fitness is here to step in and cheer on the community.
With TAEM fitness showing us all about community. They of course plan to engage and give back the best they know how from fundraising efforts to community events, TAEM Fitness aims to become a positive presence in the area. While they have big dreams and plans for the future, they’re also mindful not to promise anything before it’s ready to become reality. Their priority is to create a safe, and encouraging environment that keeps the community motivated, healthy, and connected to their mind and body well-being.

TAEM Fitness is here to be the Okanagan gym created by locals who genuinely care. They’re not a chain; they’re neighbours building a movement rooted in health, connection, and support, and they invite everyone to come in, share their story, and feel the difference.
