Powerhouse TNT weighs in new San Antonio gym

SAN ANTONIO – Work has started on Powerhouse TNT gymnastics — a $4.3 million project that, once completed, will house a 40,000-sf mega-gym and training facility.

The venue, which should be completed by January, will be located at the northwest corner of Loop 1604 and Oscar Wood Place. It will be the largest facility of its kind in the state.

The new gym will have the capacity to accommodate 2,000 athletes and will be designed to meet requirements needed to host state and regional meets.

Austin-based development lender Pride of Austin Capital Partners is financing the construction of the facility with a $3 million asset-based loan.

Owners David Brambila and Jill Oxford launched Powerhouse TNT in 2005 with 34 clients in their current gym, which is located at 10229 Culebra Rd.

“This (new) gym will make it easier for our coaches to help our athletes reach the elite level. And spectators will have a great viewing area to watch the athletes perform,” Brambila explains.

Powerhouse TNT plans to make its new facility available to a variety of groups.
