What Ironclad is for

Ironclad is a free WordPress gym theme for gyms, CrossFit boxes, martial arts schools, yoga studios and personal trainers. It ships with a real class timetable you can edit day by day, trainer profiles, membership pricing tiers and a sticky join button — everything a fitness site needs to convert, without a page builder or a booking plugin.

What’s in it

  • Class timetable with day tabs — edit every class, time and coach in the Customizer
  • Trainer profile cards with specialism, bio and social links
  • Three-tier membership pricing with a most-popular highlight
  • Stat counters that animate up as you scroll, and hold still if you asked for reduced motion
  • Sticky join button on mobile, pointing anywhere you like
  • Dark by default, with a light scheme in the Customizer

Installing it

  1. Download the zipironclad.zip, 242 KB. Do not unzip it.
  2. In WordPress, go to Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload Theme.
  3. Choose the zip and press Install Now, then Activate.
  4. Set it up under Appearance → Customize — colours, menus, layout and the front-page sections all live there.

Installing by FTP instead? Unzip it and upload the ironclad folder into wp-content/themes/, then activate it from Appearance → Themes.

Frequently asked

Do I need a booking plugin for the timetable?

No. The timetable is built into the theme and edited in the Customizer — seven days, up to six classes each. If you already use a booking system, point the class links at it.

Can I use it for a martial arts or yoga studio?

Yes. Nothing in it is weightlifting-specific — “classes”, “coaches” and “memberships” are the same shape whether you run a CrossFit box, a dojo or a pilates studio.

Is it really free for a commercial gym?

Yes. GPL v2 or later, so you can use it on your own gym’s site or on one you build for a paying client.

Does the dark look work on a phone?

Yes — it was designed dark-first and checked at 375px. There is also a light scheme if you would rather.

The same promise on every theme here

Genuinely free, including commercially

WordPress themes are GPL v2+, Shopify themes are MIT. Either way: use it on client sites, change it, rename it, sell the site you built with it. There is no “pro” version being withheld and no licence key.

No account, no email, no upsell

The download button is a download button. We do not ask who you are and there is nothing to unsubscribe from afterwards.

Nothing phones home

No Google Fonts, no analytics, no external requests of any kind. Everything the theme needs is inside the zip, which is also why they are small.

Not a page-builder trap

Every theme works with the block editor and the Customizer alone. None of them require a plugin to look like the demo.
