Girls Who Lift at UVA

Club Description

Girls Who Lift at UVA is an organization where female-identifying students of varying fitness levels can learn, grow, and challenge themselves, finding support within an inclusive and uplifting community. We hold group workout sessions and dinners every day of the week at the AFC to accommodate everyone's availability and schedules. Our meetings are very casual and flexible- By no means do you have to attend all the sessions/dinners or do the workouts of the other group members. You don't even have to lift! Our sessions are a chance to carve out time for whatever you need that day- lift, stretch for a few minutes, grab dinner, chat with friends, or anything else that is restorative to you. Girls Who Lift seeks to promote accountability and motivate students to build healthy habits for their well-being, which can always be a struggle when dealing with the busyness of college life. If you've found the gym daunting or scary, have trouble keeping a consistent workout schedule, or want to meet some new people, Girls Who Lift is the club for you. The easiest way to join is through GroupMe on our Instagram page, girlswholift_uva. Additionally, because we are an extremely new organization, we welcome all comments, concerns, and suggestions on how we can better this group and do a better job at accomplishing our mission. We hope to see you at our next workout session or dinner!
