Boise Olympian’s fitness center plans not one but four locations

Olympian Kristin Armstrong and developer Ball Ventures Ahlquist are teaming for a string of gyms in the Boise valley. Now, they’ve announced locations.

PIVOT Lifestyle + Fitness by KA broke ground on a 10,000 square foot facility at Ten Mile Crossing in October. Now, the venture plans three more locations: in Boise’s Barber Valley, in Downtown Boise and at Eagle View Landing.

The facilities will include studios for hot yoga, functional training, cycling and general gym space.

Armstrong is a 3-time Olympic gold medalist, winning in the distance time trial in 2008 in Beijing, 2012 in London and 2016 in Rio.
