Uncover our story
Neighborhood Gym started with Austin Karnes and Travis Gervais who saw a need of a commercial style gym between Hixson and Dayton, TN. With everything from top of the line Life Fitness equipment, personal training, and group classes we have what you need to stay fit near your neighborhood.
Travis Gervais has over 20 years of experience in the fitness industry, Travis Gervais has dedicated his career to helping individuals improve their health, confidence, and overall quality of life. His journey began as a trainer, working hands-on with people of all fitness levels, and evolved into a deep understanding of what truly makes a gym successful: knowledgeable coaching, a welcoming environment, and a strong sense of community.
After years of working in various fitness settings, Travis recognized a gap in the industry—gyms that focus not just on the bottom line, but on people. This insight led to the decision to open his own gym, built on experience, integrity, and a passion for helping others succeed.
Erin is a Certified Personal Trainer and Certified Nutrition Coach with a passion for helping people build strength, improve their health, and feel their best. She believes fitness should enhance your life—not take it over—and focuses on creating realistic, sustainable habits that fit each client's lifestyle.
As a lifelong fitness enthusiast, Erin understands that progress comes from consistency, not perfection. Through years of strength training, outdoor recreation, and personal challenges—including completing her first Spartan Race—she has developed an appreciation for what can be achieved with patience and dedication. She enjoys helping clients apply those same principles to reach their own goals.
When she's not in the gym, Erin enjoys baking, reading and spending time outdoors with her family and dog. She’s completed multiple 5k & 10k charity races and has participated in the annual 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb for many years.
As a local volunteer, she is also an accomplished archery coach and helped lead the SDHS Archery Team to a 2nd Place finish at the TN State Tournament. She’s also active in supporting the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation. When she's not in the gym or on the archery range, you'll often find her cheering on the Chattanooga Lookouts at the ballpark.
No matter the activity, Erin enjoys helping others grow, succeed and discover their potential.
