We’ve created the most comprehensive group fitness and wellness offering in Canada, and each new location has become an opportunity for us to continue elevating the guest experience, deliver what’s important to our community, and provide even more value to our members that can’t be found anywhere else,” said David Ingram, Founder of Sweat and Tonic. “We’re evolving with our guests, and staying ahead on the science of fitness and longevity. We’ve created a space that reflects the distinction of the neighbourhood with elevated design details and expanded amenities, and adding to our offerings a unique training experience that brings together the community and connection of group classes, with focused strength training that we know is so critical to improving healthspan and overall well-being.”
