MEMBER NOTICE
To our ClubFam,
We are incredibly excited to share our new club footprint with you as we begin to see government restrictions ease after an extremely difficult 15 months.
Although the pandemic has been particularly hard on the fitness industry and Albertans who rely on gyms, we are so fortunate to be able to announce that we are moving forward with 14 out of 21 International Fitness Holdings’ (IFH) clubs as part of our path forward. We have also received court approval for the sale of our business, which is expected to close on June 18, 2021, solidifying our plan to recover from the pandemic.
Together with GYMVMT (who is also currently operated by International Fitness Holdings), our new footprint in Edmonton will include:
- ClubFit Glenora
- GYMVMT Kensington
- GYMVMT Gateway
- GYMVMT Clareview
- HER GYMVMT Northgate
- HER GYMVMT Whitemud
Although we are so grateful to have the opportunity to start fresh under new ownership and continue to provide Edmontonians with a place to achieve their fitness goals, it is with heavy hearts we share that our ClubFit St. Albert Trail location will permanently close as we forge forward with a smaller club footprint.
If your home club is St. Albert Trail, important information regarding your membership is included below.
We are filled with bitter-sweet emotions as we say goodbye to St. Albert Trail, but we are so grateful that the majority of clubs — including Glenora—can remain open for Albertans to pick up their fitness journeys right where they left off.
Thank you for your ongoing support throughout this process and throughout the pandemic.
ALL MEMBERSHIPS
- At this time, all ClubFit and GYMVMT memberships remain frozen until our clubs reopen.
- Please note that billing will automatically resume on the first day that we reopen.
ST. ALBERT TRAIL
- If your home club is St. Albert Trail and you have a single-club Express membership, you can move your membership to another GYMVMT club that is most convenient for you once gyms reopen at your current bi-weekly dues rate.
- Your membership will automatically transfer to GYMVMT Kensington as your home club, which is just 6 minutes away from ClubFit St. Albert Trail. If you choose to pick up your fitness momentum at GYMVMT Kensington when gyms reopen, no further action is required on your account.
- If you would like to relocate to any other GYMVMT or HER GYMVMT (women’s only) location, please let us know by filling out the form below and indicate which club you would like to transfer your membership to.
- To access more than one location you can upgrade to a multi-club membership, which will give you access to ClubFit Glenora and all GYMVMT and HER GYMVMT locations in Edmonton, as well as most locations in Calgary.
- We hope you will continue your fitness journey with us from another location, but if you choose to cancel, our usual cancellation policies still apply.
- To request a change to your membership or to make an inquiry, please fill out the form below and we’ll be happy to apply your changes.

- If your membership type includes Group Fitness, you can enjoy classes at Glenora at no extra cost as part of your membership.

Q&A
What has International Fitness Holdings announced?
- On Friday, April 23, 2021, International Fitness Holdings Inc. (IFH) and affiliated entities signed an asset purchase agreement with a potential buyer and filed a Notice of Intention to File a Proposal pursuant to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act.
- We have now announced the locations that we will move forward with as part of our path forward.
Which locations will remain open?
- We are so grateful that the following 14 gyms will remain open, including 13 GYMVMT/HER GYMVMT clubs and one ClubFit location.
Calgary
- GYMVMT Calgary Place
- GYMVMT Edgemont
- GYMVMT Macleod
- GYMVMT North Hill
- HER GYMVMT Beacon Heights
- HER GYMVMT Canyon Meadows
- HER GYMVMT Westbrook
- GYMVMT/ HER GYMVMT TransCanada Centre
Edmonton
- ClubFit Glenora
- GYMVMT Kensington
- GYMVMT Clareview
- GYMVMT Gateway
- HER GYMVMT Northgate
- HER GYMVMT Whitemud
Which locations will close?
- As we forge forward with a smaller club footprint in our recovery from the impacts of the pandemic, it is with heavy hearts that we close our chapters at the following locations:
Calgary
- GYMVMT Midnapore
- HER GYMVMT Bay Club
- Bankers Hall Club
Edmonton
- ClubFit St. Albert Trail
- GYMVMT City Centre
- GYMVMT Mayfield
- HER GYMVMT West Edmonton Mall
How did you choose which locations would remain open and which would close?
- We made these decisions on our new footprint based on negotiations with our landlords and the long-term financial viability of each location.
- We have been able to reach new lease agreements with the landlords of the 14 clubs that will remain open, who have worked with us to reach sustainable agreements that are right-sized for today’s economic conditions. We extend a gracious thank-you to those landlords for the role they are playing in keeping these clubs open so Albertans can work out with us into the future.
- We were not able to reach a mutual agreement with our landlords at the 7 closing locations. We also thank our landlords at these locations for their efforts and understanding during this process.
How does this affect my membership dues?
- There are no change to your current membership dues at this time.
I am a member at St. Albert Trail, which location(s) will I have access to?
- If your home club is St. Albert Trail, your membership will automatically transfer to GYMVMT Kensington at your current bi-weekly dues rate, so that your fitness momentum can start off strong when gyms reopen. As this location is only 6 minutes away, we hope that this is a convenient location for you.
- If you have a single-club membership, you can change your home club to any location in Edmonton by filling out the form on this page.
- If you have a multi-club membership, you can work out at any other GYMVMT, HER GYMVMT or ClubFit (Edmonton) location without making changes to your account.
Why are St. Albert Trail memberships being transferred to GYMVMT Kensington?
- Your membership is being transferred to GYMVMT Kensington because it is the nearest IFH club to our St. Albert Trail location — only 6 minutes away.
- If you have a single-club membership, you can change your home club to any location in Edmonton by filling out the form on this page.
When will gyms reopen?
- We are excited to share that we will be reopening our doors at 9:00 a.m. on Friday, June 18!
- We are just as eager as you must be to get back to the gym again, and although it makes the wait a bit longer, this date allows us to make sure we are fully operational after the sale of our business, which will be officially completed that same day. That includes bringing Albertans back to work under the new entity, making sure the clubs are spick and span, and ensuring our teams are ready to welcome you back.
- Billing will be automatically on the day we reopen, and will be pro-rated to June 18.
How can I change my home club?
- You can request to change your home club, or request any other change, by filling out the form on this page.
Can I add access to additional clubs to my membership?
- Absolutely, to adjust your membership to include multi-club access, fill out the form on this page and a member of our team will reach out to you to adjust your account.
How do I freeze or cancel my membership?
- We’d hate to see you go and we hope we can find a solution for you to stay active with us in our clubs or from home, but if you do choose to cancel, please let us know by filling out the form on this page and a member of our team will reach out to you to process your request.
How will employees be impacted?
- Many employees will be relocated to other clubs before the end of June.
- Unfortunately, by reducing our club footprint we also must reduce the size of our team accordingly.
- As an Alberta employer, we are grateful to be able to continue employing most of our team, in line with keeping most of our clubs open.
Have you received court approval for the sale of the business?
- Yes, we are happy to share that on May 27, 2021, we received court approval for the sale of the business.
When will the restructuring of the business be complete?
- We expect for the process to be complete by the end of June 2021.
