Built Different

Not a chain.
Not a trend.

Ironbark was built in 2017 by two personal trainers who were sick of big-box gyms that took your money and left you to figure it out alone. Every program we run is designed by coaches who train themselves — not by head office in another city.

We have three rules: work hard, respect the space, and leave better than you came in.
