The fitness industry can be a harsh, unwelcoming place to many groups of people: Women, people of color, those who identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community, folks with little or no athletic background, or who are "too big" or "too small" to fit within the preferred body type of typical fitness culture, or think they're too old to make changes.

These humans deserve a place to work out without judgement, without the constant push to compete with others, without feeling like they're less than anyone else in the room. Where their value is not determined by their workout scores or heaviest lifts, or how "fit" they look. Where they can just be, and feel at home.

We strive to be that place.

We welcome anyone who is on board with these values and our vision (or at least willing to come with an open mind), whether you're part of these marginalized communities or not. Let's learn, grow, and have fun together!

Ripple Effect offers small group classes (capped at 8 athletes), personal training, and nutrition coaching.
