Safeguarding the Soul of our Community

We're incredibly proud of the vibrant, inclusive community we’ve built at FirePower over the past 18+ years including a strong foundation of diversity and inclusion. Our gym is a melting pot of cultures, identities, and abilities, and we fiercely protect this diversity. We want everyone to know that when you step into our second home, you step into a space that respects and celebrates who you are. This isn’t just an ideal; it’s our daily practice, embedded in every aspect of our gym experience.

Code of Conduct - Why It Matters

Every single member and staffer have signed off to accept to our Code of Conduct. Its like our barrier to entry which we’re not just committed to, but will actively defend and uphold. This code is our promise to you that our FirePower is more than just a place to lift weights – it's a sanctuary for diversity, mental wellness, and social connection.

Mental health is at the forefront of what we do. We’ve seen firsthand how our approach positively impacts our members, and we're committed to maintaining an environment where mental wellness is prioritized. Our programs and initiatives focusing on mindfulness and stress reduction aren’t just offerings – they are integral parts of our gym's ethos. We defend your right to a space where your mental health is nurtured alongside your physical fitness.

Our gym is a social hub, a place where lasting, lifelong connections are formed. We see the power of these connections every day – they're the heartbeat of our community. Our Code of Conduct is key to protecting this aspect of our community. It ensures that every interaction, every class, and every event is rooted in respect, empathy & care. We stand by our commitment to fostering a culture where everyone feels part of something bigger than themselves.

It's amazing to see how far we've come, and a big part of that success is our Code of Conduct, which we’re not just committed to, but will actively defend and uphold. This code is our promise to you that our gym is more than just a place to lift weights – it's a sanctuary for diversity, mental wellness, and social connection.

We want you to know that our Code of Conduct is not just a document; it's a living, breathing part of our gym. It's a reflection of our values and the high standards we set for ourselves and our community. We actively defend it because it represents the safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment we’ve worked so hard to create.

We’re not just protecting a set of rules; we’re safeguarding the soul of our community.

Thank you for being a part of this journey, for embracing our Code of Conduct, and for helping us create a space where everyone belongs and thrives. Together, we’re not just building muscles – we’re building a movement.

With love & honour,

Andrea & George
