Brick Bodies Padonia

Overview

Brick Bodies Padonia is a premier 60,000+ square foot gym in Timonium, Maryland, renowned as the “Best Gym” in Baltimore Magazine’s 2025 Readers’ Poll for the 8th consecutive year. While primarily a full-service fitness center offering classes in yoga, cycling, boxing, and more, it stands out with its brand-new Recover Lounge—a spa-like recovery area focused on physical and mental rejuvenation. Key highlights include private Infrared Sauna Suites with Red Light Therapy and Vitamin C-infused showers, alongside pools, hot tubs, and traditional saunas/steam rooms.

The overall atmosphere blends high-energy fitness with serene recovery: enjoy expansive turf training zones and boutique studios by day, then unwind in the lavender-scented Recover Lounge with cool towels and advanced therapies. Open to members and non-members, it emphasizes post-workout recovery, detoxification, and relaxation in a locally owned, expert-led environment.
