Our Story
UrbanIron Fitness was founded by Dena Smith, who started her journey overweight and frustrated, just like many of our members. Dena found her passion for fitness after her first kettlebell workout that combined cardio and strength training into one iron bell. After losing all of her baby weight and improving her endurance and strength, Dena fell in love with the efficiency and results of this training style. She became a trainer and eventually the owner of UrbanIron Fitness in 2015.
