✨ Feb 2026 Member of the Month: Irram ✨
Irram has been a valued member at Fernwood Ascot Vale since June 2025, when she bravely moved to Australia on her own, leaving behind a negative chapter to start fresh. Beginning with Yoga and Cycle classes, she’s recently taken her journey even further - focusing on building strength, reducing body fat, and challenging herself through our Strong Start Challenge, where she has given nothing less than 100%.
Irram is passionate about everything Fernwood and is a wonderful role model within our community, continuing to prioritise her training even throughout Ramadan. 💪🌙
Here’s what Irram had to say about her journey:
“I joined Fernwood Ascot Vale just one year ago, and it has proven to be one of the most positive decisions I have made for both my physical fitness and mental wellbeing.
The club has supported me not only in achieving my weight management and fitness goals but also in navigating some of the more challenging periods of depression I experienced. The combination of structured exercise and a supportive environment has made a genuine difference to my overall health and outlook.
Among my favourite experiences at Fernwood have been the energising FIIT 30 sessions, Reformer Pilates, Yoga and Meditation classes, and the diverse range of Group Fitness options. I am also particularly looking forward to exploring Hypoxi sessions in the near future.
As a 35-year-old loyal member, I truly appreciate the thoughtful way the Ascot Vale team maintains a modern, welcoming gym space, secure parking, and an impressive array of facilities tailored to women's health and wellness.
I am deeply grateful to the entire Fernwood Ascot Vale team for their dedication and warmth. I am excited to continue my journey with Fernwood and to keep prioritising my fitness and wellbeing here.
Thank you, Fernwood Ascot Vale – you have truly made a lasting impact!”
Thank you for inspiring us, Irram, we’re so proud to be part of your journey 💖
