Girls Power Hour
A specialized program empowering young women with strength training skills, confidence, and community in a supportive female-led environment.
Program Overview
Girls Power Hour is an after-school & summer program designed for young females to receive specialized weight room coaching from a female trainer in a comfortable and supportive setting. The primary objective is to empower them with the knowledge and skills needed to work out efficiently, develop strength, and bolster their self-assurance.
Our aim is to equip participants with the confidence to navigate any weight room with ease, ensuring they are well-versed in exercise techniques and able to exude a newfound sense of self-esteem. It's common for our participants to return from college and share how they outperform many boys in the school weight room because they have learned how to do things effectively.
Beyond physical training, Girls Power Hour creates a space free from social media pressures and comparisons. It's simply about pushing ourselves together, free from cliques and societal expectations, creating the perfect environment for cultivating new connections and strengthening existing bonds

What age groups does this program serve?
Our Girls Power Hour program is designed for middle and high school girls (typically ages 12-18). We focus on age-appropriate training methods that consider both physical and emotional development stages.
Is weight training safe for young women?
Absolutely! When properly coached with age-appropriate methods, strength training is not only safe but highly beneficial for young women. It builds bone density, improves posture, increases confidence, and establishes healthy fitness habits that last a lifetime. Our female coaches are specially trained in youth development.

Just bring comfortable workout clothes, supportive athletic shoes, a water bottle, and a positive attitude! We provide all the equipment needed for your training session.
Does my child need previous fitness experience to join?
Not at all! Girls Power Hour welcomes participants of all fitness levels. We start with fundamentals and progress at each individual's pace. Many of our most successful participants had never set foot in a weight room before joining our program.
How do you make the environment comfortable for girls?
Our program is led exclusively by female trainers who understand the unique concerns young women may have. We create a supportive, non-judgmental space free from societal pressures or comparisons. We emphasize personal progress over competition and create a community where questions are encouraged and every achievement is celebrated.
