About Sandia
Our second longest-standing club, Sandia on Juan Tabo, anchors the Northeast Heights of Albuquerque near the Sandia Mountains — convenient to San Gabriel, Holiday Park, Cielito Lindo, Matheson Park, and Enchanted Park. The space once housed the Grand Central Station nightclub; after a major rainstorm collapsed the roof, Defined Fitness rebuilt and unified the entire site. Today, Sandia remains our biggest club — 60,000 square feet — and one of the largest gyms in New Mexico.
