MOVATI expands HYROX footprint with four new Certified HYROX Training Clubs

MOVATI Athletic said on June 1 that four more of its Ontario gyms have been designated Certified HYROX Training Clubs, adding Mississauga, Richmond Hill, Burlington and Guelph to its HYROX network. The company said the expansion follows the certification of five Ottawa locations in January, bringing its total to nine certified clubs in Ontario. The announcement was distributed through GlobeNewswire and published by multiple outlets, including The Manila Times and Yahoo Finance. HYROX, the indoor fitness race brand that combines running with functional workout stations, has been building out both events and affiliated training sites across North America. ### Which MOVATI clubs were added this week? The June 1 announcement named four Ontario locations: Mississauga, Richmond Hill, Burlington and Guelph. MOVATI said those sites are now officially designated Certified HYROX Training Clubs. The company’s club directory also lists those locations among its operating gyms. (manilatimes.net) The new certifications extend a rollout that began in Ottawa.
