Balance Petaluma Opening in Downtown Petaluma

Petaluma, CA (date September 10, 2018) – Basin Street Properties, a prominent Northern California real estate investor and developer, has signed a lease for 2,213 square feet with Balance Petaluma at Theatre Square in downtown Petaluma. Balance Petaluma is a cycle and barre boutique fitness studio concept focused on promoting fitness and community. “Balance Petaluma’s energy and sense of community is a great fit for Downtown Petaluma and Theatre Square,” said Scott Stranzl, Vice President of Leasing for Basin Street Properties. “It aligns well with the other downtown businesses and provides a great opportunity for a healthier lifestyle.”

Balance Petaluma will open this fall, offering barre and spin classes seven days a week for all levels of expertise. The spin classes will provide a hardcore cardio option, while the barre will be low impact strength training that focuses on strong, long and lean muscles and alignment of the body. The barre classes use a combination of exercises that combine both pilates and yoga. The barre is used to assist in balance while doing exercises that focus on isometric strength training combined with high reps of varying range-of-motion movements. The classes also utilize light weights to add additional resistance and mats, blocks and straps for targeted core work. “Barre is a fun, low impact and engaging way to get in shape and stay fit,” said Mary Fillinger, Owner, General Manager and Instructor at Balance Petaluma. “We focus on a sense of community so that everyone can have more fun taking care of their bodies.”

Balance Petaluma Owner and General Manager, Mary Fillinger moved to Petaluma in 2013 after marrying her husband, Chad Fillinger, and in 2015 they had their daughter Reese. “Chad was born and raised in Petaluma,” said Mary. “We spent a lot of time in Petaluma while we were dating, and the strong sense of community and great people made it the natural choice for us to start our family and build our businesses. We don’t have a big franchise or corporation behind us. We’re family owned and operated.  We’re locals serving locals, in all the ways that the Petaluma people value.” The downtown location will be the second Balance Petaluma location with the first one thriving at 701 Sonoma Mountain Parkway. “We are so excited to expand our Balance community to the West side of Petaluma so that we can offer fantastic and unique classes to the entire Petaluma community,” said Mary. “The nearby shopping and events blend well with Balance Petaluma’s classes and community. We’re so much more than a fitness studio. We want to be your place to check in or check out, let go of the stresses of life, work it out on the mat and/or bike and then get back to be the best version of yourself!”

Balance Petaluma will be offering several New Client specials as well as some New Studio Opening specials during the month of October. All pricing, class times and specials can be found online: balancepetaluma.com
