International Women’s Day 2024 with Fitness World
On March 8th, Fitness World celebrated International Women’s Day (IWD) – a global day to recognize women’s social, economic, cultural, and political achievements.
Georgia Fitness World, a local gym in Vancouver, BC, honored this day by celebrating the progress made in women's equality and advocating for women's rights in all areas of life – at home, in our communities, and in the workplace. International Women's Day inspires us to keep striving for a world where gender equality is the reality for everyone. Let’s go girls!
In a recent blog, Fitness World emphasized its commitment to being an inclusive gym who hypes body positivity, focuses on mental health, and supports a safe environment for all their gym-goers. They even have clubs that feature dedicated women-only spaces! Read on to learn about the International Women’s Day 2024 theme and how Fitness World is working to inspire inclusion in fitness.
2024 IWD Theme
Every year, an International Women's Day theme is chosen to raise awareness about issues impacting women. In 2024, the theme was #InspireInclusion, emphasizing the importance of creating spaces where women feel valued, included, and empowered. At Georgia Fitness World, they share that commitment to safe, inclusive spaces for all, both in their gyms and in the wider world!
Celebrate the women in your life! Acknowledge their successes, support their goals, and make sure they feel respected and included everywhere. Hype up your gals! You can also be a true ally by actively supporting women's achievements, pushing for gender equality, and creating spaces where women feel safe, wanted, and included. Count on Georgia Fitness World to be a place where women of all backgrounds can thrive.
