Over the weekend, we quietly took a moment to remember our sweet, beloved team member, Allan. It was fitting the anniversary of his passing occurred over Ironman Canada race weekend - an event he no doubt would have been part of.
Although it has been six years since his passing, Allan’s spirit permeates everything we do. His support in his life and the next is the silent backbone to our purpose. He was such a special part of our community and team and we will forever remember our gentle giant.
Sending extra love to his partner, kids and grandkids this week as they hold his memories close and appreciate the legacy he left behind, which we continue to honour and pull forward.
🤍

A place where your goals are supported through safe and curated progress with coaches that think about your health more then they need to.
For those who always will be presented a physical and/or mental challenge but with the opportunity to do more or less depending on the day, a goal, an injury, mental health and more.

Let's talk about the green flag fellas and why we love them. ✅
Not because they lift heavy things (although they sure do) or because they’re motivated (although they really are). But because they want to learn from, be coached by, respect and train alongside anyone without question. ✅💪
At Iron North, some of our longest-standing members and biggest supporters are men who have no issue walking into a class led by a woman (we've 8 of them!), taking her feedback, asking questions, and working really hard. They understand that coaching is about knowledge, aptitude, and helping people become better, regardless of gender, identity, race or body shape.
The reality is that many women still face assumptions in strength sports and fitness spaces. Sometimes it’s subtle. Sometimes it’s not. So when men show up, respect the space, support their training partners, and contribute to a culture where everyone belongs, it matters. We notice.
Strong communities aren’t built by one type of person. They’re built by people who value effort, respect, humility, and growth.
One of our favourite things is watching a room full of men trust the process, load up a barbell, get absolutely wrecked…and then ask what we’re doing next week.
That’s a green flag. Thanks fellas. 💚
