ABOUT SWELL SANTA BARBARA

Swell Santa Barbara wasn't born in a boardroom; it sprouted from a passion for health and community. Our journey began as the Santa Barbara Athletic Club in 1978, offering a space for individuals to pursue their fitness goals. Over the years, we've grown and evolved, but our core values remain the same—fostering a welcoming environment that empowers individuals to achieve their full potential.
