D1 Training, a leading fitness concept utilizing the five core tenets of athletic-based training, will be opening a new location in Kalamazoo at 6800 Westnedge Ave. on May 13. The group fitness facility employs a sports-science backed training regimen led by certified trainers to help people of all ages achieve their sport and fitness goals.

The new D1 Training location is owned by local husband-and-wife duo Jon and Maija Reisterer. Born and raised in Kalamazoo, Maija has cultivated a deep love for the community, a sentiment now shared with her husband. Now with children of their own, the Reisterers decided to use their affection for the city and its community members to create a workout facility where people of all ages feel safe and comfortable. Their goal is for D1 Training to be a place where people can have fun working out and find a team, support system and a family.   Top of Form

“When Maija and I first heard about D1 Training, we knew this was the fitness concept we wanted to bring to our home community,” said Jon. “We are thrilled to be opening D1 Training and offering our fellow community members a place where they can work towards fitness goals and boost their confidence.” 

D1 Training offers four age-based programs including Rookie (ages 7-11), Developmental (ages 12-14), Prep (ages 15-18) and D1 Adult. Each fitness program is based on the five athletic-based tenets: dynamic warm-up, performance, strength program, core and conditioning, and cool down. Outside of group workouts, D1 Training offers one-on-one training with world-class coaches. The goal is simple: to continue to train athletes who are dedicated to their sport or fitness goals, regardless of age or athletic background.

“Jon and Maija are the ideal candidates to bring the D1 Training experience to Kalamazoo,” said the brand’s Chief Operating Officer, Dan Murphy. “We’re thrilled to welcome them to the D1 family and are confident in their ability to show the Kalamazoo area what they’ve been missing out on. D1 is a one-of-a-kind fitness experience that’s built around the individual and meant to help people meet their appropriate edge. Our strong network of franchisees embody our core values to bring the D1 Training vision to life, and we know Jon and Maija will do just that in Kalamazoo and its surrounding communities.”

Strategically expanding across the nation through franchising, D1 Training has more than 100 performance centers open with over 100 additional locations in various stages of development. The brand is currently seeking qualified and active community members to expand its footprint and help more people meet their fitness goals.
