Wedding DJ at Workout Anytime in Thomasville, NC

The Space

Matt Pogue already knew the Workout Anytime playbook before opening this Thomasville location in November 2025, having managed a Workout Anytime in Greensboro before becoming a franchise owner himself. He and Katie Flowers, both Kernersville residents, also run a Workout Anytime in Mocksville, opened two years earlier, so Thomasville is their second location together.

The franchise traces back to 1999, when Steve Strickland and John Quattrocchi converted a 3,200-square-foot women’s-only gym in Douglasville, Georgia into a co-ed facility open 24 hours a day. That original Georgia location is still running today, and the chain has since grown past 200 locations across 22 states and Central America, with Thomasville joining that network as a 24-hour member facility. The original pitch back in 1999 was simple, 24-hour access for $24 a month, a value model the franchise built its early reputation on before expanding into amenity-heavy locations like this one.

Capacity & Layout

No published seated or standing capacity exists for this location, since it operates as a working fitness floor rather than a rented event space. What is documented is the layout of amenities: personal trainers on staff, red-light therapy beds, massage chairs, and both stand-up and traditional tanning setups spread through the facility alongside the standard gym equipment. The floor itself includes treadmills, ellipticals, and recumbent bikes for cardio, a dedicated free-weight area with squat racks and dumbbells up to 100 pounds, and locker rooms with showers for both men and women.

Members get 24-hour access to the building, which is a different kind of scheduling than a typical event venue, no set opening or closing time to plan around, just a facility that is always available to the people who belong to it. That access model shapes how any gathering here would need to work around an active membership base rather than an empty rented room.

Amenities

Beyond standard cardio and strength equipment, the facility includes wellness features not every gym in the area carries, red-light therapy beds, massage chairs, a stand-up tanning booth, and a traditional tanning bed, plus certified personal trainers on staff for members who want structured coaching rather than open floor access on their own. Additional features include HydroMassage units, a Styku 3D body scanner, Sprint 8 HIIT training equipment, and an airPHX air sanitizing system, extras that go beyond what a standard 24-hour gym typically offers.

Because Workout Anytime is a franchise network, membership here also carries access to other locations nationwide, including the Mocksville gym Pogue and Flowers already run. That network reach is one of the chain’s selling points since it began in 1999, giving members continuity when they travel rather than being tied to a single building.

Location & Getting There

Workout Anytime Thomasville opened with a grand opening event in early November 2025, joining a franchise that now spans more than 200 locations across 22 states and Central America. For a market the size of Thomasville, a 24-hour facility with this range of amenities, tanning, therapy beds, and personal training, is a notable addition to the local fitness scene.

As an indoor fitness floor rather than a banquet hall, sound in a space like this behaves the way any hard-surfaced gym does, mirrors, equipment, and open floor plans carry sound further and with more echo than a carpeted event room, which is a real consideration for a DJ or PA setup at any gathering held on the floor rather than in a private meeting room.
