BKBX, a first-of-its-kind fitness brand bringing together elements of adventure sports with the latest in fitness and technology, will open a new training and recovery center in the high-end residential building 87 Kent Avenue in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
Opening in the summer of 2020, BKBX Williamsburg will span three levels and a total of more than 32,000s/f including a rooftop terrace overlooking Manhattan and the East River.
This is the second location for BKBX following the success of its pilot location in Boston, which opened in early 2019. Â
Born out of Brooklyn Boulders, the  urban rock climbing facility that already occupies space in the building, BKBX offers circuit-training classes that blend adventure sports with new fitness formats and proprietary technologies.
The Williamsburg facility is designed to support group studio classes, self-guided fitness, yoga and restorative movement, spa-like recovery, cryotherapy, and a health-centric cafe all under one roof.Â
BKBX Williamsburg will feature a 2,000 s/f yoga studio with 22-foot ceilings that open up to a 35-foot-high vaulted skylight, while group fitness classes will be held across four studios totaling 8,700 s/f.
The property owners are Jay and Michael Weitzman.
