About the Event

When I started lifting, I was intimidated, lost, and nowhere near consistent. I kept copying things from YouTube and Instagram without really understanding the movements and fell off after a few tries.

Most classes tell you what to do for 45 minutes, but rarely get into the details such as the why. A personal trainer can teach you the how and why, but finding the right one is hard and a session is only an hour, so the theory rarely gets the time it deserves.

So, we created Lift Lab, an event that teaches the theory behind strength training in a supportive environment.

What is Lift Lab?

Lift Lab is a premium three-hour educational strength experience for women+. It combines a focused lecture on the principles of strength training, a coached group session, and a social atmosphere. You'll leave equipped with understanding, making training on your own feel less like guesswork.

One Evening, Three Parts:

1. Learn: Understand the what, how, and why of your lifts.
2. Practice: Engage in a fully coached strength session.
3. Connect: Network with other women who are getting into lifting.

This Edition: Strength for Real Life

This session focuses on functional strength—getting off the floor without pushing off your knees, carrying groceries upstairs, or lifting a suitcase without back pain. It’s about training for everyday life, not just aesthetics.
