Cofounded in 1998 by Scott and Tiffany Ackerman, Elite Fitness Concepts puts customer service back into the fitness world. It works one-on-one with its members to provide effective guidance on exercise and overall health. Elite Fitness takes Scott's extensive experience working with the Nittany Lion football team and the Washington Redskins, and puts it together with cutting-edge cardiovascular and strength equipment and training. Locker rooms have a "country club" feel with dark wood and granite. Classes in Pilates, yoga, Kukuwa dance and cycle are taught by the area's best instructors.
