At Penance Gym, we’re always looking for ways to strengthen our community and help more people discover the benefits of our training. That’s why, on Thursday, November 14th, we’re hosting a special Bring a Friend Day! This is an opportunity for our members to share their fitness experience with a friend, family member, or colleague who might be curious about what we do and how we train.
Why Bring a Friend Day? Here’s the Backstory
This event isn’t just another workout. We’re organizing it for a few key reasons that highlight the unique and welcoming nature of our gym:
- Responding to Interest
Lately, several members have mentioned that friends or coworkers often ask them, “You go to Penance Gym, can you tell me about them?” or “What do you do for workouts?” That curiosity is what we want to encourage with Bring a Friend Day. By inviting your friend to experience a workout firsthand, you’re giving them a chance to see what it’s all about. - The Power of Referrals
Over the years, we’ve found that our best members come to us through referrals. When someone sees a friend getting stronger, healthier, and more confident, it’s inspiring. This event lets our current members share their fitness journey with people close to them, knowing they’re introducing them to a supportive, results-oriented environment. - Spreading Awareness in Our Community
Tucked away from the main roads of Oakland, Penance Gym is a bit of a hidden gem in our area. The best way to reach more like-minded people is through word of mouth. When our members share their experiences, it not only helps us grow, it also gives their friends and family access to the benefits we offer.
What to Expect on Bring a Friend Day
We’re planning an exciting session that’s challenging yet accessible, designed to give newcomers a taste of the Penance Gym experience. They’ll experience our supportive environment, meet our trainers, and see firsthand what makes our community special. Whether your friend is new to fitness or already active, we’ll tailor the experience to be enjoyable and impactful.
Pre-Registration Required
To make sure we’re fully prepared for each participant, we’re asking that all members have their friends pre-register by email. This helps us ensure we have the right equipment, space, and support ready for everyone. If you’re planning to bring a friend, please email us at Theresa@PenanceGym.com to reserve your spot.
