About Us
Elevate your athleticism and discover your strength!
​Defiance Strength & Conditioning is proud to call the Roaring Fork Valley home—one of the most active and scenic recreational hubs in the world. Surrounded by skiing, hiking, biking, rafting, and more, our mission is to help people stay strong, healthy, and ready to enjoy everything this valley has to offer.
​
Our programming is built on longevity—keeping you functional for life, not just the gym. For some, that means pain-free daily movement like getting off the floor or keeping up with kids. For others, it’s training for big goals like ultra races, mountain summits, or ski traverses. Whatever your starting point, our approach adapts to your needs, abilities, and goals. We combine weight and cardio training in a small group setting to help you realize your full potential.
​
Defiance is more than a gym, we are a community of all types of people supporting one another in their fitness journey. Our members range from ages 8 to 79 and include everyone from elite athletes to grandparents. Friendships, families, and even lifelong partnerships have formed here, extending far beyond our walls. Whether you’re brand new to fitness or chasing your next adventure, you’ll find expert coaching, accountability, and a supportive community ready to welcome you.
