Event Date: 09\/10\/2026
Organizer: Free Form Fitness<\/a><\/p>\n

On Sept. 10, more than 130 clients, team members and community partners gathered at Lago Bar and Grill to celebrate 20 years of Free Form Fitness.<\/p>\n

Since opening in Ottawa in 2006, the personal training company has grown to four locations and helped thousands of people improve their strength, confidence and overall health through personalized support.<\/p>\n

During the celebration CEO Ashley Lawrie expressed her gratitude to the family, friends and clients who have supported Free Form Fitness throughout its journey. Their support helped keep its doors open and made the milestone possible.<\/p>\n

The event also raised more than $5,000 for the Miroir Foundation, which supports programs that reduce loneliness and social isolation among older adults. Its mission closely aligns with Free Form Fitness\u2019s values of connection and support. The foundation\u2019s president, Linda Garcia, is also a longtime Free Form Fitness client, giving the partnership a personal connection.<\/p>\n

The anniversary was a celebration of the relationships built over 20 years and the people who continue to make the Free Form Fitness community what it is today.<\/p>\n
