MOVATI adds four Certified HYROX clubs

MOVATI Athletic said on June 1 that four more Ontario locations — Mississauga, Richmond Hill, Burlington and Guelph — have been designated Certified HYROX Training Clubs. The announcement adds to the company’s existing HYROX network in Canada and gives members at those clubs access to programming built around the race format, according to the company’s GlobeNewswire release. HYROX describes its training clubs as accredited facilities that can market themselves under the HYROX brand and prepare athletes using race-specific programming. ### Which MOVATI clubs were added? The June 1 release named Mississauga, Richmond Hill, Burlington and Guelph as the newly certified clubs. MOVATI said the four sites are in Ontario and are now part of its Certified HYROX Training Club network. MOVATI’s Richmond Hill club page now carries a “HYROX Training Club” label and says classes are built around competition movements and intensity, with sessions led by certified HYROX coaches. (manilatimes.net) The company’s main locations page also lists Burlington, Mississauga, Richmond Hill and Guelph among its Ontario clubs. ### What does “Certified HYROX Training Club” mean here? HYROX says accredited training clubs are affiliated facilities that can advertise and market their services using the HYROX brand name. (manilatimes.net) The organization says those clubs form part of its global training network for athletes preparing for HYROX races. The Richmond Hill club page gives the clearest example of what that looks like on the ground. (movatiathletic.com) MOVATI says its HYROX classes use structured programming focused on race-day preparation and are led by certified coaches. ### How much does this expand MOVATI’s Ontario footprint? MOVATI had already announced in late 2025 and early 2026 that its five Ottawa locations became HYROX Training Clubs. (hyrox.com) That earlier move covered Barrhaven, Kanata, Nepean, Orléans and Trainyards, according to MOVATI’s Ottawa certification page. With the four new Ontario certifications, MOVATI now has at least nine certified HYROX clubs in Ontario based on its public announcements. (movatiathletic.com) That count is an inference from the company’s June 1 release and its earlier Ottawa announcement. ### Is the World Championships reference in the original item accurate? (movatiathletic.com) HYROX’s official world championship pages say the 2026 HYROX World Championships are scheduled for June 18-21, 2026. HYROX’s race finder identifies that event as the PUMA HYROX World Championships in Stockholm, not Chicago. The company release tied the new clubs to preparation ahead of HYROX Toronto 2026, which Yahoo Finance’s copy of the release said is set for Oct. 1-4, 2026. (manilatimes.net) The official HYROX pages reviewed here confirm the world championship structure and qualification process, but the Chicago reference in the original context was not supported by those official sources. (hyrox.com) ### What comes next for athletes training at these clubs? HYROX says athletes qualify for the World Championships through placings at global HYROX races during the same season, with spots determined by age group, division and event participation. The official site says qualification generally applies to athletes racing in the Pro Division, with some listed exceptions. HYROX’s race finder lists the PUMA HYROX World Championships in Stockholm for June 18-21, 2026, and Yahoo Finance’s version of the MOVATI release points next to HYROX Toronto 2026 on Oct. 1-4, 2026. (finance.yahoo.com) Those are the next named milestones attached to the training-club expansion. (hyroxme.com) (hyrox.com)
