What we do
Innovate, Educate, Motivate, Integrate
Clay Fitness + Nutrition has moved to Charlottesville and is ready to help Cville take their fitness and nutrition to the next level! Clay Fitness & Nutrition is most well known for 12 week fitness programs that promote accountability, camaraderie and measured results. While the 12 week programs are usually the best way to see change in our clients, we know that sometimes people can not commit to specific days and times, every week for that amount of time. We offer drop in classes that go way beyond the typical industry standard exercise class. We think every class should be an experience. You will never spend a class with us looking at your watch wondering when it will be over! We offer innovative programs, and classes that help educate the community, motivate them to make change and help them integrate lifestyle changes.
Because it is our goal to have your experience with us last beyond the hour you spend with us on any given day, we strive to teach you something new about fitness, physiology, nutrition, and body mechanics. Whether you are in a class, a 12 week program, or a nutrition seminar, at Clay, you are learning tools that will help you make better choices about your fitness and health for life.

How we are different
Accountability, Community and Measured Results
At Clay, accountability, community and benchmarking results are our hallmarks. Your instructors, coaches, and trainers know you, your goals and what you are capable of and need to do. The people in classes get to know each other and provide the support, motivation, and sense of community that promotes attendance and commitment. Every step of your process to achieving a better you, we measure your results so that you can be fueled by the process. Good fitness and nutrition is a lifelong process that can be fun, but only when your experience is engaged and fun.
Pay when you come – not when you don’t
Unlike a traditional gym where you lock into a membership for at least a year, pay your monthly dues for classes that are sub-standard, and training that is uninspired. At Clay there are no memberships – you pay when you come, not when you don’t. The quality and instruction of the classes are amazing, and every dollar you spend is on training and nutrition that results in changes to your health and fitness.
