Yard Athletics
Yard Athletics
Yard Athletics has a simple but important mission – to bring a raw, uncut, back-to-basics style of training to Vancouver. After expanding to its first permanent location on Pender Street in June 2020, Yard Athletics has grown considerably, boasting a 2,600 sq ft training facility and an incredible coaching staff. Offering a variety of services, including training, open gym memberships, nutrition coaching and more, Yard Athletics offers a full fitness experience for athletes of all levels. For those seeking training at the highest level, from a team that cares about form and function, Yard Athletics has built something special – something we want to help share with everyone.
Throughout our one year of work together, we took a strategic approach to updating Yard Athletics’ social platforms. From simplifying Instagram content to updating the newsletter templates and engaging with notable influencers, we helped spread the word about Yard Athletics to the city of Vancouver and beyond.
