New gym opens in Tacoma, more pizza in East Pierce Co., and other food, biz news
A new gym has opened in Tacoma’s Sixth Avenue district offering personal coaching, group classes and HYROX training. 3B Method , at 3914 6th Ave., had its soft opening Oct. 12. The three B’s stand for building muscle, burning fat and balance. The 3B brand started as a specialty training program inside University Place CrossFit in 2024, when owners Jon and Ashleigh Guidoux needed to make use of an extra studio at the gym. “Our community was really loving [the classes],” Jon Guidoux said. When the couple was presented with the opportunity to expand, they weren’t interested in opening another Crossfit, but instead wanted to dedicate a new space to the 3B methodology, Jon Guidoux said. The new gym, in the space formerly occupied by Town Athletics, is open from 5:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. Saturday and is closed Sunday. “We want people to enjoy their workouts, [and] look forward to the people that they’re training with coming in,” Jon Guidoux said.

Burien rapper Travis Thompson talks storytelling, sobriety and the city that made him
I first caught Travis Thompson in 2017 during his set at Upstream, the music festival founded by the late Paul Allen. He’d just released his "Ambaum" mixtape, a nod to Burien, where he grew up and spent much of his life. Though he was still relatively young, he already knew how to connect with a crowd. I’ve seen him perform about a half a dozen times since, most recently at Bumbershoot, and he's still got that ability to connect.

Two Seattle screenings of Portland-filmed feature ‘A Simple Machine’ already sold out
Filmed in Portland, A Simple Machine is a feature film about a young man struggling under debt who “makes a series of radically frugal lifestyle choices without telling his girlfriend that he’s going to fix up an old bike and go off the grid,” according to the film’s synopsis. The trailer looks great, with a grainy black-and-white style and intriguing dialog. “This is not just a ‘bike film,’” the promotional team said in an email to Seattle Bike Blog about the upcoming screening. “It’s a film where the bike is the philosophy.”
