Everyone talks about what they’re adding in January, but very few people talk about what they’re eliminating.
That’s why the Reverse Bucket List is so effective.
What’s one habit, one commitment, and one belief you’re done with in 2026?

Better late than never… especially when it’s Coach Yolanda 💪🔥
🎉 500 Club – Coach Yolanda 🎉
If you’ve ever been in a class with Yolanda—whether she’s doing the workout or coaching it—you already know this milestone was inevitable. She’s the definition of all-in.
Yolanda brings energy, encouragement, and just the right amount of “you’ve got more in you” to every single class. She’s cheering you on mid-WOD, celebrating your wins, and somehow convincing you to grab the heavier weight… and thank her for it afterward 😅
It’s that infectious enthusiasm—her belief in the people around her—that makes her your why when you’re tired, doubting yourself, or thinking about stopping. You push harder because she believes you can.
Welcome (belatedly, but very deservedly) to the 500 Club, Coach Yolanda. Thanks for being the hype, the heart, and the reason we all go a little harder. 🖤🏋️♀️👏

Always a big day at the gym when the workout is deadlifts. Today was 5 sets of 8 at 55% of 1RM. Everyone is getting the work done!

If you’re a woman in her 30s, 40s and 50s trying to make lasting changes in her health, habits, and mindset, this is for you 👇
Want to take your 2026 goals to the next level?
It just takes one word, as long as it’s the RIGHT word.
Your “Word of the Year” is like a compass to help you:
→ make good choices even when you’re not motivated
→ stay focused on what really matters
→ remain centered even when your schedule is overflowing
💭 Pick a word that reflects how you want to feel in 2026… not what you want to do.
(You’ll be surprised how that one tip changes everything.)

2018 marks 20 years serving the community of Dunnville and beyond! It has been an incredible 20 years and we look forward to many, many more years.
When we take a moment to think about the past two decades a lot of great moments come to mind. Our martial arts students have earned Black Belts and have channeled that discipline to become nurses, teachers, police officers and successful entrepreneurs. To have been a small part of these success stories is a privilege.
Fitness that is achievable, sustainable and enjoyable has always been our focus. Our CrossFit members are redefining fitness. They are a diverse group that includes grandparents and stroke survivors, busy dads and new mothers. From seniors with mobility issues to young athletes looking to maximize performance, our style of fitness is 100% customized to each member. It doesn’t matter what your goal is, our program and expertise will give you the tools to achieve it.
We love our small town. We are members of the Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce. We have raised over $6000 for our hospital, support local fitness events and contribute regularly to local groups and fundraisers. It’s a small way of saying “thanks” for all the years of support.
Stop by and meet us. We’d love to show you how we can change your life!
