***UPDATE: in 2020 the club was absorbed into Team Lis Smash. While the gym isn’t limited to only women, our gym is an intentionally queer and feminist space. The majority of TLS members are women, transgender or gender-expansive (and we intentionally maintain this majority, now and always).***
Established in 2016, the Atlanta Womxn’s Barbell Club meets Sundays at CrossFit Downtown Atlanta (some weeks at AK CrossFit), plus Tuesday and Fridays in East Atlanta.
We are a group of lifters who identify as female or gender non-conforming, training to learn proper lifting technique and to get stronger.
Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist Lis Saunders is the club’s coach. She has 10 years of coaching experience and specializes in working with beginners. Lis writes the weekly programming and teaches warm-up, movement prep and lifting technique in each session.
All experience and ability levels are welcome.
Sunday sessions are limited to 10 lifters (but the group is regularly smaller- 3 to 5) and are sliding-scale fee based. Pay what you can afford, from $5-20.
Week day sessions are limited to 3 lifters and are $25-35.
For more info or to RSVP for our next training session, email the club here.
