After 2 years of establishment, Hustle Thao Dien has won two categories of Fitness Best Asia Awards 2021 (FBAA): Gym of the year and ROAR Award – Revolution of Asian Regime (Group Workouts).
Boutique fitness is a training model where people can have a truly unique work out experience through a dynamic friendly atmosphere and vibrant routine, and it is on the rise. According to the IHRSA Report, membership of boutique fitness facilities grew by 121% in the 2013-2017 period, while industry-wide only made up 15%. By April 2021, LEK Consulting predicted that boutique studios would rebound slightly faster than traditional gyms once the pandemic is contained.
Realizing there had yet to have a platform to recognise the best in the fitness and wellness industry in Asia, AMC Asia announced the launch of Fitness Best Asia Awards – the first awards ceremony for the region.
