Strong Here: Women’s Strength & Movement

Strong Together is a women’s-only fitness series built to be accessible for every body, every age, and every fitness level.

No experience or equipment needed.

Each session is a coached Zara Chaudhry, Certified Personal Trainer, with low-pressure class mixing strength, conditioning, and mobility, with options to scale every movement up or down so everyone can work at their own pace. Think bodyweight strength, light dumbbell or band work, partner-friendly circuits, and a stretch and cool-down to close.

Racialized and immigrant women are often excluded from fitness spaces. This is usually because of cost, caregiving demands, cultural stigma, racism, and a fitness culture that rarely reflects them. The purpose is to create a safe, joyful space for women to build strength and confidence together, and to give back.

Every class is by donation (suggested donation is $10-$20) with contributions split between the Black & Here Community Centre and the Women’s Empowerment Fund, a pooled charity fund supporting organizations that work to prevent gender-based violence and expand women’s access to healthcare and family planning.
