“The video series we are currently working on enables her to reach out to both her existing and potential clientele to keep them updated on current topics and tips related to a healthy living lifestyle,” Bapst said of his co-hosting duties.

“It has been so rewarding working with Tamara and helping be a small part of turning her dream of owning a business into reality.”

“We are excited to have TK Fitness as a start-up business in the Endeavor Center.  Kudos to Tamara for starting a gym during the pandemic as this was a difficult time for many businesses and especially those in the fitness and health industry,” said Endeavor Center manager Ryan Mapes.
“Her perseverance paid off, and the gym membership is growing. Having a fitness business on site is unique to the Endeavor Center and provides many healthy lifestyle opportunities to the community.”
