"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change
the world; indeed, that is all that ever has."

O2 MAX is pumped every day by Margaret Mead's famous words as we focus our time, energy, and resources on the health, spirit and achievements of teens.

The seeds for O2 MAX were planted simultaneously, on two coasts:
In Los Angeles, Karen Jashinsky was pursuing her MBA at USC's Marshall School of Business. Her goal was to create a successful business of her own (as her parents had done with a restaurant in N.J. where she grew up). Her passion for fitness led her to earn certification as a personal trainer and before long she had established a group of regular clients, all adults. Many of them were anxious for their teens to become more active but there were really no gyms that welcomed them. The idea for O2 MAX was born--- A fitness place teens could call their own!

In New York Pam Goldman was looking for a fitness venue for her teenaged daughter; one that was fun and cool in a friendly, social environment. When she couldn't find one she decided to create one.

And the number of those championing our cause continues to grow as O2 MAX reaches out to the fitness industry, health industry, members of the community in business and education to support the vision of a healthy 'hub' for teens. But no one has been more important to the vibrant spirit of O2 MAX than TEENS themselves. The voices of teens are key to everything we do. And we will follow their lead as their dynamic wants and needs change. But of course, some things at O2 MAX will never change---these include...our commitment to providing the tools, resources and professional expertise we believe all teens deserve in order to achieve their personal best.

Until we establish a permanent place in the culture, exclusively for
teens to discover their better selves, we won't stop
