FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (April 18, 2026) – Matterhorn Fit Fort Lauderdale officially opened its doors today with a ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the launch of a new, high-performance fitness destination in the heart of the city. The facility is owned and operated by husband-and-wife team Steven Kampfer and Tara Kampfer, and the event was attended by Matterhorn Fit co-founder Ryan Vesce. Steven Kampfer is a Stanley Cup Champion and represented TEAM USA's men's hockey team as the assistant captain in the 2022 Beijing Olympics.

The grand opening event welcomed community leaders, fitness enthusiasts and supporters to tour the state-of-the-art facility, meet the founders and experience the unique training philosophy behind the Matterhorn Fit brand.

Matterhorn Fit Fort Lauderdale offers a results-driven approach to fitness, centered around the proprietary “Matterhorn Method,” which uniquely blends neurological rehabilitation with strength and performance training. Rather than treating symptoms alone, the method focuses on identifying and correcting how the brain communicates with the body, reinforcing proper movement patterns and building strength to prevent future injury.

This integrated approach creates a seamless progression from pain relief and rehabilitation to improved strength, mobility and long-term performance—an approach trusted by professional athletes and designed to be accessible to individuals of all fitness levels.

“Opening Matterhorn Fit in Fort Lauderdale is an exciting milestone for us,” said Mr. Kampfer. “We wanted to create a space that reflects the mindset and training approach that helped me succeed at the highest level—while making it accessible to everyone in the community.”

Ms. Kampfer added, “Our vision is to build more than just a gym. We’re creating a supportive, motivating environment where people can challenge themselves, see real results and feel part of a community.”

The Fort Lauderdale location features modern equipment, customized training programs and a team of experienced coaches dedicated to helping members achieve their personal fitness goals. The facility offers group classes, personal training and specialized programs that integrate rehabilitation principles directly into strength training—helping clients move better, feel better and perform at a higher level.

Today’s ribbon cutting marks the official start of operations, with memberships now available to the public. More information is available at https://www.matterhornfit.com/fort-lauderdale.

Matterhorn Fit Fort Lauderdale aims to become a go-to destination for individuals seeking a dynamic, results-oriented fitness experience in South Florida.
