Vasa Fitness, a fast-growing Utah-based chain that expanded to Colorado last year, plans to open its first Colorado Springs fitness center in a vacant Albertsons store on the city's southwest side.

The company has signed a long-term lease to take over the 43,000-square-foot space at 455 E. Cheyenne Mountain Blvd., in the Cheyenne Hills retail center. Vasa also plans to enlarge the building by 8,000 to 10,000 square feet, said NAI Highland broker Tiffany Colvert, who's marketing Cheyenne Hills for its Denver owner.

Vasa will open its Springs location in early 2018, according to the company's website; Vasa officials couldn't be reached for comment Wednesday.

Among other amenities, Vasa's Colorado Springs fitness center will have aerobics, group exercises, spin classes, basketball, circuit and free weights, an indoor pool, a jacuzzi, racquetball courts, a steam room, sauna, tanning beds and childcare facilities, the company's website says.

Vasa opened its first Colorado fitness center in Greeley in late 2016, inside a former Albertsons that had been vacant for a decade, according to the Greeley Tribune. Vasa opened a second location in Aurora this year and plans two more centers in Denver and Centennial in late 2017, its website says.

In Colorado Springs, Vasa's takeover of the southwest side Albertsons space will give a boost to Cheyenne Hills. The small, neighborhood retail center - just 52,000 square feet - has lacked an anchor since Albertsons closed in early 2015.

In addition to Vasa, a former Grease Monkey building in a corner of the Cheyenne Hills parking lot will be demolished and replaced with a FirstBank branch.

The southwest part of town has only a few fitness centers, and Vasa will help provide another option to area residents and business people, Colvert said.

"It's great thing for the south part of town, to get that backfilled," Colvert said of the Albertsons space. "I think the whole center will have some new life breathed into it."
