Overtime we have constructed this pathway that will have you reaching your chin up goals!

Start with the basics and progress up ⬆️
- Inverted rows
- Dead hangs
- Active hangs
- High holds
- Slow reps
- Chin ups ✨✨

We are delighted to welcome the newest member of the Orka coaching team >>

Get to know a bit about him ☺️🤝

On behalf of everyone at Orka Coaching, we would like to congratulate on a fantastic career. Laura has been training in Orka since it opened in 2023. Her work ethic, constant drive to be at her best and resilience -especially throughout periods of injury has been clear for everyone to see.

Comhghairdeas ♥️

As we close our doors for Christmas, we want to thank you for the support this year and wish ye all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from the ORKA team.

Here’s a heads up on our opening hours throughout Christmas 🎄🧑‍🎄

ORKA Turns 2 🎉

A massive thank you to everyone who joined us for our birthday BBQ on Saturday. The day was filled with good food, good vibes, and even better people.

As a small business, hosting events like this can feel like a leap of faith—we never know who’ll turn up. But the community we’ve built over the past two years showed up in force, and seeing both familiar and returning faces reminded us exactly why we started ORKA.

From the bottom of our hearts—thank you for making this journey worthwhile.

Anne, Alan & the ORKA Team x

Ps. We couldn’t forget about a certain someone’s actual birthday too !!

Anne, Alan, Scott, Holly, and Nicky.

A little bit late, but we at Orka, staff and community would like extend a big welcome to the two new coaches, Holly and Nicky!!
These two have both made a big impact in the gym over their first months.
Holly and Nicky have a sterling background in Sports Science and Strength and Conditioning, which perfectly suits the environment and community we are trying to create in our gym!
Don’t be afraid to ask Nicky (aka Nigel as per Scott) about anything rugby 🏉 or Holly anything soccer ⚽️

A massive congratulatory shout out to an esteemed member of our gym community Joe Enright!! Joe set out to climb Kilimanjaro to raise funds for
We are immensely proud of Joe and what he has achieved, exceeding his charitable goal of €3000. We have also been delighted to have helped Joe get him where he needed to be to get up there!!
If you happen to see Joe in the gym when he returns to us, give him a big pat on the back 🧡

Grá go leor,
Orka
