A women-only weights workshop over two days (28th March and 11th April)

Location:  LA Fitness, Holborn
Cost: A mere £5.00 per session!

Presented by Gubernatrix and Ade Abudu

A unique opportunity to attend a women-only workshop to learn the basics of lifting weights. You’ll leave feeling empowered to venture into the weights room at your gym, confident that you will be lifting safely with proper form.

We’ll teach you the movements, how to set things up in the weights room and at the end of the second workshop you’ll all have a chance to go for a PR!

The workshops will run for 2 hours, from 11am to 1pm at LA fitness, Holborn, Central London. The workshops are being run on a not-for-profit basis so the cost simply covers studio and equipment.

The workshop is suitable for absolute beginners, novices and those who have a bit of experience but want to boost their confidence and get some technique tips.

To get the best out of the workshop, do attend both sessions as the second session builds on the work done in the first.

Hi folks,

First workshop this Sunday 28th March

Just drawing your attention to this little venture. Myself and a colleague are presenting a 2-workshop series at a central London LA Fitness. The idea is to get women feeling confident using free weights in the weights room at the gym.

Not everyone has access to a functional/Crossfit type box or wants to go down that road. We want to meet people halfway, in their normal commercial gym, but try to get over that invisible barrier between the free weights room and the rest of the gym!!

If you know any women who would benefit from an introductory weights session like this, do let them know. Each workshop is only £5!!!!! - and you get a free programme and workout journal to take away

If the format is a success we'll look to try to do this in more gyms.

Cheers,
Gubes
