Brick Bodies was founded by Baltimore natives, Victor and Lynne Brick in 1985. Brick Bodies offers all the facilities and services you would expect from a world-class health club organization. Brick Bodies/Lynne Brick's clubs have a comfortable atmosphere that is only possible in a privately owned and operated facility. The programs at the clubs are results-oriented, a reflection of Victor's training as a physical education instructor and Lynne's background as a shock-trauma nurse.  Group exercise is a major area of expertise, so much so that Les Mills International, the leading choreographed group exercise company in the world, chose Lynne and Victor to represent them in the Mid-Atlantic region.
