You may have noticed a slight change in your feed if you follow us and see our posts. With the new year upon us we felt it was time for a bit of a change that has been long overdue….

YEG Fitness is becoming YEG Thrive….

The way we look at fitness is changing and today, being fit involves more than just being physically in good shape. It involves all aspects of our lives focussing more on wellness and healthy living. Because only when you are truly living a lifestyle of wellness, can you THRIVE…

For now you’ll see a lot of the same things that we’ve always been proud to showcase. Healthy lifestyle content for all abilities. Because fitness is truly unique for everyone. We believe in fostering and supporting an inclusive community where everyone feels supported and confident in their fitness journey.

We’re also using this month to flesh out some ideas that have been on the backburner for a long time and we’ll be rolling them out in February-March. You’ll also notice our website address transition to reflect the new name (not yet though)…

We’re excited to finally be taking this step as we’ve never been just about FITNESS. We started 11 years ago with.a name we always felt didn’t quite suit what we were promoting and with this change we‘ll better reflect what we do.

We’re here to help YEG THRIVE!
