Opening in 2020 in Mills River, THE HIVE GYM had humble beginnings. Founded by Richard Ciarlante as MC Barbell Club, we launched in uncertain times and with a bare bones approach. No AC, and no fancy lighting. Just raw effort. In 2023, we came back to Brevard and became King Street Gym. From there we grew, and as we grew we realized the gym was more than just a gym. It's a place where people come to do more than just work out. They come to train! And so we moved again, this time acknowledging the buzzing energy that has always been at the core of what we do, and we became THE HIVE GYM!
