A new Pilates studio with infrared heat and on-site childcare is coming to Lorton.

Though Anytime Fitness is set to close later this spring, the Twinbrooke Shopping Center won’t go without a gym for long.

Expected to open in the Kings Park West strip mall this summer is Pump24, a local gym brand “designed for individuals who take their training seriously and are seeking a higher-quality experience than traditional big-box facilities,” a spokesperson said.

A gym in Kings Park West will close later this spring, but apparently not by choice.

Operating since 2017, Anytime Fitness will shutter at the Twinbrooke Shopping Center in April as the result of a conflict with Federal Realty, which owns the property, gym owner Brian Samuel told FFXnow.

The Army Ten-Miler announced earlier this week that its 2025 expo will be held at The St. James (6805 Industrial Road) in Springfield on Oct. 10-11 “due to the unavailability of the DC Armory” — the event’s traditional location.
