Kirsten and Hayden Willis, founders of Origin Gym

The Founders

More than a gym. A starting line.

Kirsten & Hayden Willis competed in powerlifting and bodybuilding for years, and kept chasing the community, energy and equipment they found in the country's best gyms. They built Origin to bring that caliber home to Baton Rouge — and to make it welcoming to everyone, so anyone can start their journey and grow, whatever their level.

FAQ

Things to know before you show up.

App walkthrough

A quick walkthrough: sign up, download the app, and unlock the door.

How do I get into the gym?

After you sign up online and download the Origin Gym app, you sign in and tap once at the door to unlock it. Your phone is your key — no fob, no front desk.

What are your hours?

Members have access 24 hours a day, every day. The app lets you in whenever you want to train. The gym is open 365 days a year, including holidays.

Do I need to book the sauna or red light room?

No. The whole recovery suite is walk-in and included with every membership and pass — no appointments and no extra fee.

Do you offer day or week passes?

Yes — a Day Pass is $25 and a Week Pass is $65, both with full access to the floor and recovery suite. See passes →

Can I cancel my membership?

Cancellations require a 30-day notice, and you continue paying until your term is up. Every membership renews automatically unless we are notified 30 days prior to the renewal date.

What if I'm new and don't know the equipment?

You're welcome here. The machines adjust to every size and level, and the owners are regularly on the floor to help if you're unsure how something works.

Can I pay in cash?

No, we only accept debit/credit cards when signing up for a pass or membership. The card you wish to charge has to be put on file when signing up. The vending machines also only accept card (physical card or tap to pay).

Can I bring a guest for free with my membership?

Memberships do not come with free guest privileges. All guests have to purchase their own pass or membership when wanting to workout at Origin.

Does Origin offer free trials to try the gym out before purchasing a membership?

No, we do not offer free trials. However, if you sign up for a membership on the same day you purchase your pass, we can void the day pass! Just reach out to us via email, and we can arrange the void/refund.

Is Origin Gym just athletes and competitors?

All are welcome! Origin is designed for the serious lifters, but you do not have to be a bodybuilder or powerlifter to join. Our members come from various levels of fitness. If you enjoy going to the gym and love great equipment, this is the place for you!

Where do I park?

We have 3 different areas to park: the paved parking lot in front of the building, the gravel lot in front of the building, and the gravel lot behind the building (across the small bridge, marked by our signs)

Do I use the 4-digit check-in code to unlock the front door?

You use the app's "Access" tab to open the door. Refer to the video tutorial in this section to review the easy steps for unlocking the door!

Are there showers?

Our Baton Rouge location does not have showers. However, our Gonzales location has showers in both bathrooms!

Is Origin Gym open on holidays?

Yes! We are open 24/7/365. Visitors are also able to purchase passes on holidays and get immediate access to the gym. Members have full access EVERY DAY, even on holidays.
