Jolt Fitness is being recognized on a national level! The gym has been nominated for the prestigious RBC Women of Influence Awards, which celebrates female entrepreneurs and the positive impact they have in their industries and communities.

Founder Katie “Siggy” Sigertson, says the honour means a lot—not just for her, but for her entire team.

The Women of Influence Awards highlight new ideas, leadership, and the role women play in shaping their industries.

Siggy said she felt deep gratitude when she heard about the nomination.

Now that the nomination is in, Siggy has completed the application process. Final results will be announced in November.

For those inspired by Jolt Fitness, Siggy has a message.

Over the past decade, Siggy has worked in gyms across Canada. That experience helped her realize something was missing in the fitness world—real support for people’s long-term health. That’s what led her to open Jolt Fitness.

One of the gym’s standout programs is the Her Strength Project, a non-profit, volunteer-run program in local schools. It helps girls build confidence, improve body image, and manage social media pressures. For more details, visit JOLT FITNESS HURON COUNTY
