📣 OFFICIAL NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC — OWNERSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT FOR ONYX FITNESS SOLUTIONS LTD. 📣

After nearly 12 incredible years, it’s time for a new chapter in the Onyx Fitness Solutions story — and we’re thrilled to share it with our community, the people who made this journey unforgettable.

When we first sat down in 2014 to write our business plan, a big part of our dream was:
👉 To be the “Cheers” of gyms — where everybody knows your name.
A place where bodybuilders and grandmas could work out side-by-side, where people felt welcome, supported, and at home.

Thanks to every member who ever walked through our doors, that dream didn’t just come true… it became so much bigger than we ever imagined. You helped us build something special — a space full of friendships, laughter, personal victories, and memories we’ll carry with us forever.

From day one, we loved teaching, coaching, and cheering on your success. We never expected Onyx to grow into what it is today, and we are endlessly grateful for the community who made it happen.

And now, we’re excited to share that Onyx Fitness Solutions has new owners: Neil and Veronica Fernandes. 🎉
These two are exceptional leaders with huge hearts, bold ideas, and a genuine passion for fitness and community. As they shared their vision with us, we knew immediately: Onyx is in the best possible hands.

Even better? They’re not wasting any time bringing fresh energy into the gym — brand new equipment will begin arriving as early as December 16! 🏋️‍♂️✨
It’s the first of many upgrades Neil and Veronica have planned as they take the Onyx dream to the next level.

To our members:
Thank you for trusting us, laughing with us, learning with us, and helping us build something truly one-of-a-kind. We’ll miss the relationships, the jokes, the early mornings, community events, and the shared wins. You made this more than a business — you made it a family. And while our roles are changing, we look forward to checking in and saying hello whenever we’re back in town.

With that said, please join us in welcoming Neil and Veronica as they step forward to lead Onyx into an incredible new chapter. 💛

With love and gratitude,
Kim & Ken Dennison
Founders, Onyx Fitness Solutions Ltd.

Thrilled to welcome Kirsty to Onyx!! 👏🏻

A note from Peak Strength with Kirsty …

Hi there, my name is Kirsty Leathem. I’m a Certified Personal Trainer & Group Fitness Instructor!

I’ve spent over 15 years in the gym and have been active my whole life, growing up around horses and always on the move.

As a busy mom of three, I understand the challenge of making time for yourself - and I believe strength training is essential for every stage of life.

I take a holistic approach to health & wellness. After 10 years of owning a restaurant, I developed a deep passion for real, farm-to-table foods and living a balanced lifestyle.

I love helping clients of all ages build strength, confidence, and long term results - while showing that fitness and healthy eating can be enjoyable and sustainable!

Reach out & let’s get started!

Calling all golfers!! 🏌🏾‍♂️
Lola’s Roundtable is raising money for a new van. Here a chance to get on the green and help out people in the community too!

⛳️SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT⛳️

We are thrilled to welcome Onyx Fitness Solutions as a proud sponsor of Lola’s Annual Golf Tournament!

Thanks to the support of community partners like Onyx, we’re able to continue providing quality services to our members, treating every individual like family. Their generosity helps ensure that every swing, every putt, and every smile on tournament day makes a lasting difference.

Join us in thanking Kim & Ken for their commitment to inclusion, excellence, and community care!

This year’s tournament is especially important—we’re raising funds to purchase a much-needed “new used” van to safely transport the amazing people we support. Every sponsor, Onyx, helps us get one step closer to making that happen.
