RED Development announced today that [solidcore], the national strength training studio known for its high-intensity, low-impact workouts on custom-built reformers, is introducing its second Arizona location at The Shops at Hilton Village with a grand opening event July 12-13.

The 2,454-square-foot studio is situated between Signature Barbershop and Slanted Rice Vietnamese Bistro, taking over the former Row House location. This new opening represents [solidcore]’s continued investment in the Valley’s dynamic fitness and wellness scene, with future locations planned.

“The Shops at Hilton Village has long been a destination for those seeking exceptional retail, dining and lifestyle experiences,” said Mike Ebert, managing partner at RED Development. “Solidcore is a perfect fit for our vision—bringing a high-performance, wellness-driven concept that aligns with the way people are choosing to live, move and connect today. It’s a dynamic addition that reflects the energy of the community.”

[solidcore]’s 50-minute, full-body workout utilizes slow and controlled movements, scientifically designed to break down muscles to failure so that they build back stronger. As the lights go down and the music turns up, members are guided through a high-intensity, low-impact workout that will have them feeling stronger by the first song change.

Each class is held in a sleek, dimly lit studio with energizing music that helps eliminate distractions and keeps participants fully focused on their movement. With small class sizes and individualized attention from coaches, the experience is designed to challenge individuals at all levels while fostering a supportive community. Classes include STARTER50 for those looking to learn the fundamentals, FOUNDATION50 for those who have the basics down and are looking to master their form and SIGNATURE50 for those seeking the signature experience and want to push the limits.

“Scottsdale and the greater Phoenix community have shown a tremendous passion for health and strength training, and we’re excited to provide another space that fosters community and personal growth,” said Joshua Rainey, senior director of real estate at Solidcore.

[solidcore] offers flexible membership options with exclusive perks, including early access to class bookings, waived late cancellation fees for unlimited memberships, retail discounts, access to special events and in-studio offers, and complimentary guest passes. Members can also take advantage of nationwide travel benefits with no upcharges at other studios.

The opening of Solidcore is part of an ongoing wave of wellness-focused growth at The Shops at Hilton Village. RED Development also recently signed Pause Studio, a modern recovery destination offering full-spectrum infrared saunas, float therapy, cryotherapy, IV drips, compression therapy, red light therapy and more. Set to make its Arizona debut in a 2,823-square-foot space next to Slanted Rice in 2026, the new addition will further bolster the center’s mix of lifestyle-driven concepts.

Located in the heart of Scottsdale’s premier shopping, dining and resort corridor, The Shops at Hilton Village features a curated mix of high-end retail, local boutiques, wellness destinations and culinary favorites, including Handel’s Homemade Ice Cream, Barry’s, Born & Bred, To Be Continued, Houston’s, Linen Tree, Chico’s, Nékter Juice Bar and more.
