BAMBOLIM: For businessman Harshad Dhond, entering the fitness space is not about a numbers game. Rather it’s the passion of the humble man that stands out as the Bambolim-based sophisticated ‘Jai Fitness Gym’ caters to surrounding villages of Siridao, Goa Velha, St Cruz, Agassaim and even clients from as far as Dona Paula.
Moreover, as the pandemic has led to widespread concern over the future of closed spaces gathering culture leading to question-mark on the gyms’ viability in future; here is a businessman who has just launched his well-planned three-level facility. A well-known personality in Goa’s fisheries and hospitality sector, Dhond’s decision to go ahead with his fitness project in the pandemic era, itself speaks of his conviction in the service.
With the initial days since the inaugural of Jai Fitness Gym towards the end of July, drawing overwhelming response; an avid fitness enthusiast himself, Dhond is satisfied over his decision.
“I want to encourage boys and girls from all sections of the society especially those who have socioeconomic challenges, to become athletes. I want to send out a message that anyone can look to develop athleticism and Jai Fitness Gym with its unique homely feel, is for all,” Dhond told livenewsgoa.com.
True to his word, one can sense the no-fuss atmosphere, the moment one steps into the gym. The membership rates are so reasonable, it’s almost difficult to believe with respect to the provision of state-of-the-art equipments and varieties of training regimens available under the guidance of trainers.
As India’s best-ever Olympics campaign was underway when Jai Fitness Gym opened its doors, the energy provided by Team India with the Tokyo 2020 showing, is set to spark new talents all over the country with initiatives from the likes of Dhond going a long way in unearthing raw talents from Goa!
