The Nov. 12 shooting at the VIDA Fitness gym and health spa, located in D.C.’s Logan Circle neighborhood, in which one person was shot to death and four others were wounded, one of whom remains in critical condition, has impacted the local LGBTQ community along with the community as a whole, according to local LGBTQ advocates.

The Logan Circle VIDA Fitness, located at 1517 15th St., NW, along with three other VIDA Fitness facilities in D.C. and another two in Northern Virginia, are owned by gay businessman David von Storch, who has been a longtime supporter of LGBTQ organizations and rights causes.

While noting that everyone is welcome at each of his VIDA Fitness gyms, von Storch told the Washington Blade that the Logan Circle gym and his nearby U Street gym have many LGBTQ members.
