History
Brooklyn Athletic Club's Facility Director and Owner, Larry Betz, has always been inspired by the fact that there is a specific way to train to get a desired result, whether it be for strength, endurance, or post rehab. Over 10 years go, Larry's passion for health and fitness motivated him to return to school to become a Strength and Fitness Coach and to study Advanced Personal Training Exercise Science. During this time, Larry also attended a variety of seminars and lectures throughout the states by the top strength and conditioning coaches in the industry. Larry renovated the warehouse on Berry street and began perfecting Brooklyn Athletic Club's Group Training, Semi-Private Training, and One-on-One Training process. What our members see here is the culmination of over 10 years of traveling and studying under the top coaches in the industry, taking the best of these methods, perfecting our method and offering them in one location.
