Burlington, MA Following the successful opening of three Life Time athletic resort destinations in the greater Boston market, Life Time is continuing its expansion in Massachusetts with the planned spring 2018 opening of Life Time Athletic Burlington. A preview center is now open for prospective members to learn about the healthy living, healthy aging and healthy entertainment experience. The new Burlington Diamond-level club provides members with access to the Framingham and Westwood locations, as well as any of the company’s 127Life Time destinations throughout the country and in Toronto, Ontario in Canada.
