Life Time and the City of Rosemount, MN broke ground on the future location of Life Time Rosemount. Life Time executives and Rosemount city and community leaders were on hand for the occasion, almost 31 years to the day when Life Time opened its first club. Today, Life Time operates more than 165 locations in 30 states and 40 major markets, including 24 in Minnesota.

“We’re excited to reach this important milestone as we bring our Healthy Way of Life programs and offerings to this fast-growing area in Dakota County, while also serving as part of our asset-light growth strategy,” said Parham Javaheri, Life Time chief property development officer. “Our partnership with Rosemount and their financial investment in this project will have a positive health impact for area residents and a positive economic impact on further business growth for years to come.”

The new 92,000-square-foot athletic country club and adjacent 60,000-square-foot outdoor aquatics and pickleball court development is a public/private venture between Life Time and Rosemount to serve Rosemount residents and the Dakota County community. Construction is underway on the 12-acre site on the Southeast corner of Akron Avenue and Connemara Trail. Life Time is planning for an early 2025 opening.

“We’ve been purposeful in looking for the right kind of growth in Rosemount to set us apart, and this innovative public/private partnership with Life Time hits the mark on so many levels,” said Rosemount Mayor Jeff Weisensel. “Our community places a high value on wellness, athletics, and parks and recreation, and bringing the country’s premier athletic club to Rosemount has been met with so much excitement and enthusiasm. It’s a perfect complement to round out what we have to offer residents and visitors.”
