Bay Club Expands Seattle Presence With Acquisition of 425 Fitness
SAN FRANCISCO, June 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Bay Club Company (“Bay Club”) today announces the acquisition of 425 Fitness, a highly regarded group of fitness clubs in the greater Seattle area with three locations in Bothell, Redmond, and Issaquah. The acquisition strengthens the Bay Club presence in Seattle and furthers its commitment to building vibrant, local communities throughout the Pacific Northwest, with its innovative Campus model centered on sports, outdoor recreation, and active lifestyle experiences.
The addition of three 425 Fitness locations is a strategic step in Bay Club’s mission to create regional Campuses that meet every need of the modern active lifestyle. Each Campus is designed to integrate exceptional amenities under a flexible Shared Membership model that allows people to add whoever they choose—whether that’s neighbors, coworkers, friends, or family. This approach continues to differentiate Bay Club’s ability to foster meaningful connection through curated experiences that help members live healthier, more vibrant lives.
Founded in 1988, 425 Fitness brings more than 35 years of community-focused wellness to the Bay Club family. Each location features expansive fitness floors, studios, recovery zones with Theragun and Hydromassage, saunas, saltwater pools, hot yoga, and youth programming—all closely aligned with Bay Club’s commitment to premium amenities and its active lifestyle ethos.
“Our expansion into Seattle’s Eastside suburbs is a natural evolution of our Campus strategy in the region,” said Victor Woo, Executive Vice President of New Business Development at Bay Club. “The 425 Fitness properties enhance our offerings with additional fitness amenities that complement the sports and outdoor recreation focus of our PRO Clubs and Harbor Square Athletic Club, creating a well-rounded Campus where people thrive through movement, connection, and play.”
With the addition of three new clubs in the greater Seattle area, Bay Club will formally segment its Pacific Northwest presence into two distinct Campuses. The newly designated Washington Campus will include PRO Club Bellevue, PRO Club Seattle, and Harbor Square Athletic Club in Edmonds along with the three new 425 Fitness locations. The Oregon Campus, anchored by Bay Club Portland, will be a continued focus for expansion.
“As we grow across our five geographic zones, our vision remains consistent: to create connected ecosystems that elevate the way people live,” Woo said. “Whether members are working out, spending time with family, or building new friendships, Bay Club offers a place for all of it. We look forward to building out our Campuses within all of our regions moving forward.”
