Team Lis Smash was founded in 2016 to challenge the status quo of strength training. We welcome people of every gender, sexuality, skin color, religion, shape and size to get strong and smash goals together.

We’re a queer, feminist, gender-affirming space with 2500 sf of powerlifting and strength training equipment including combo racks, power racks, basic and specialty barbells, deadlift platforms, dumbbells, kettlebells, a leg press, cable machines, an aqua bag, a 48-foot strip of turf and more. There’s even a gym cat!

All training is by appointment and we don’t take walk-ins.

There are a few different membership and training options:

-Open Gym access (train yourself!) – $50, 65 or 80 per month (sliding scale, pay what you can) plus a $25 sign-up fee. Open gym training is available by appointment only, from 6am to 10pm daily. A gym tour is required to join.

-Semi-private (training in small groups of up to four Smashers) and private training ranges from $45 to 100 per session. Prices vary by coach and how many sessions you buy.
