Where Fitness Meets Community
Strength, Wellness, and Belonging for All
Rising Sun Community Fitness is a welcoming, inclusive space for people from all walks of life. With a head coach who is a licensed physical therapist assistant and classes led by certified fitness professionals, we prioritize quality coaching, safe movement, and individualized support. Above all, we’re proud of our fun, supportive community where everyone feels welcome and encouraged to be themselves.
Train for Strength. Stay for the Culture.
What makes us the best gym in Nashville, TN? It’s the people. At Rising Sun Community Fitness, we believe fitness is about more than just the workout. It’s about showing up, working hard, supporting one another, and celebrating real progress. No matter your experience level or fitness goals, you’ll find expert coaching, teammates who challenge and encourage you, and an inclusive environment where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
Conveniently located in the heart of East Nashville, just behind Grimey’s Record Shop and Living Waters Brewery & Coffee, we’re a short drive from downtown Nashville, the airport, and the Opryland area. Come for the fitness, stay for the community.
Room to Train Hard
Our 6,000 square foot facility includes a turf lane for sleds and rope climbs, a 10 person lifting rig, Rogue and Concept2 equipment, and showers in both locker rooms.
Coached by Certified Pros
Every class is led by a certified fitness professional, and our head coach is a licensed physical therapist assistant who knows how to keep you moving well.
A Welcoming Community
Our community is fun, welcoming, and proudly LGBTQ+ inclusive. No matter who you are or where you come from, you’ll find a place where you belong, with teammates who challenge you, support you, and celebrate your progress every step of the way.

What Our Members Say
Hear from members who walked through our doors feeling nervous, found coaches who met them where they were, and discovered a community that makes showing up the best part of their day. Their journey started with one free intro. Yours can, too.
Rising Sun is such an incredible gym and community to be a part of. The owners and coaches truly listen to you and make sure that your needs and goals are met. Every workout is structured wonderfully and expert guidance is provided. Every member I’ve met is welcoming and wants to see you succeed. I couldn’t recommend a better gym!

Let me tell you about my gym - A gym where everyone encourages you. A gym where coaches have the highest level of skill. This gym has something special. How do I know? I am 74 years old and I drive 40 miles to workout at this gym. If you are in the Nashville metro area and don't do your workouts here, you are missing something special.
- Doug R
RSCF is a great gym. The programming is excellent and well balanced- I’ve developed aches and pains at other barbell focused gyms but none here! Everyone is welcoming. The coaches are great- they offer plenty of support but it never feels overbearing. Coaches are also excellent resources for modification. Love it!
