Together We Will Endure
Meaning
Dūrātus (dur-ah-toos) sure is an odd sounding word...this might have been your first thought. It sounds odd because it's not english, it's latin. This word was not chosen at random. It's actually filled with meaning. Dūrātus means to "endure" or "harden"-- this word signifies the journey to become "hardened" in fitness and character.
It's a journey that will take endurance.
Fitness
Dūrātus started with the belief that "going to the gym" could be about more than a workout. What if fitness was not cardio or machines or "chest and back" days?
Could fitness be transformative? Can our fitness be directly correlated to our development as people?
We believe it can.
Community
Dūrātus is not your typical gym. It's a place that uses fitness to challenge fear, develop discipline and create community.
Dūrātus exists to be more than a gym. We are a community of people not only seeking to become all that we can, but also seeking the betterment of our city, which we love.
We believe it should.
