For over a decade, TamTay has been more than a gym in Da Nang — a place where people connect, grow and feel at home. It started with one woman and one first step.

Lê Thị Tâm“Tâm Tây” · Founder & head coach
Year one
75kg→57kg
Two hours of cardio a day, a clean diet — and a lot of will.
01 · The founder
Meet the woman behind TamTay.
If TamTay were a person, she’d be defined by courage.
Fifteen years ago — when few women in Vietnam trained in a gym — a single mother walked through the doors anyway. She came looking for strength after a hard chapter in her life. She faced criticism and stereotypes, and she trained through all of it.
Tam went on to earn international certificates in Aerobic, Zumba and Yoga, and began coaching women who wanted to lose weight, get strong or get back in shape after having a baby. Then she stepped on stage — and won gold for Da Nang.
My only regret is that I didn’t find the gym sooner. It’s not how old you are — it’s how old you feel and look to others.

02 · The journey
Fifteen years. One belief.
From one woman’s first workout to two gyms and a community by the sea.
15 years ago
The first step
A single mother walks into a gym at a time when few Vietnamese women do. Criticism, stereotypes — she keeps showing up.
Year one
−18 kg, new confidence
From over 75 kg to 57 kg in about a year. The body changed — but the real change was the confidence that came with it.
The coach
Sharing the energy
International certificates in Aerobic, Zumba and Yoga. Tam starts coaching — especially women who want to lose weight or recover their shape after childbirth.
2019
Gold for Da Nang
Gold Medal, Bikini Fitness — Da Nang City Bodybuilding Championship. Then the city’s only female bikini fitness athlete at the National Championship in Cà Mau.
2020
National recognition
Recognised at the Vietnam National Championship — and a voice for Vietnamese women: strength has no gender, confidence has no limits.
An Thượng
TamTay Gym
A beachside gym in the heart of An Thượng — air-conditioned, fully equipped, and a welcoming mix of locals and travellers from all over the world.
Now
TamTay Fitness Center
The dream of a bigger gym for Da Nang comes true in Sơn Trà: free weights, CrossFit, sauna, ice bath and the TamTay bar — a home for training, recovery and friendship.
Next
Down the coast
As Da Nang and Hội An grow together, we hope to carry the same spirit down the coast.

03 · The vision
More than a gym. A second home.
Our ambition was never to build a bigger gym — it’s to build one of the most respected fitness communities in Central Vietnam. A place where people come not just to train, but to connect, grow and belong.
For many who visit Da Nang, the city becomes a second home. We want TamTay to be an extension of that feeling — where you keep your healthy lifestyle and make real friendships, whether you’re here for a week, a month or a lifetime.
It’s not the equipment people remember — it’s the people.
04 · Why TamTay
It’s how we make you feel.
Four promises we keep every day — at both gyms, for every member, whether you’re local or just landed.
01
We genuinely care
We ask how you slept, how training’s going, how you’re settling into Da Nang. If you’re facing a challenge, we’re glad to help.
02
Your local family
Need a doctor, a healthy restaurant or local advice? Just ask. We’re locals, and we’re always happy to help you feel at home.
03
A space that feels good
Clean, welcoming, positive energy and the right music — every single day. Somewhere you can breathe, train and be yourself.
04
Supplements we trust
Every protein, vitamin and supplement is chosen because we’d use it ourselves. No shortcuts, no fakes, no compromises.
05 · Community
Out there, together.
TamTay teams up with local partners for runs, meet-ups and giving back. Everyone’s welcome — members or not.
