Power. Education. Community. 🤍

This weekend’s Power Through Perimenopause workshop was everything it needed to be—and more.

A room full of women showing up with curiosity, questions, and zero shame. Talking about the things we’ve been told are “TMI” (they’re not… they’re tell me immediately). Learning about our bodies, sharing experiences, and realizing we are not alone in any of it.

Because the truth is—no one prepared us for this stage of life.
So we’re changing that. Together.

From honest conversations around strength loss, fatigue, pelvic health, libido, and more… to actually getting on the floor and moving—feeling what it’s like to build strength, support our bodies, and fight back in a way that’s empowering, not defeating.

This is what it looks like to take your power back.
This is what it looks like to be supported.
This is what it looks like to thrive through perimenopause.

So proud of every woman who showed up, and every coach and practitioner who made this space what it was. ✨

We’re just getting started.

9 years of KG Strong 💜

From one space… to two… to three.
From small classes to a full, thriving community.
From an idea to something that has truly taken on a life of its own.

We’ve flowed through rooftop yoga at Bok, lifted together through every season, raised money for our community, and created a space that’s about so much more than just workouts.

The real magic? The people.
So many of you have been with us through huge life milestones — moves, marriages, babies, career changes, and everything in between. Watching you grow, while growing alongside you, has been the greatest gift.

KG Strong isn’t just a gym. It’s a place filled with memories, support, strength, and a whole lot of love.

Thank you for being part of these 9 years. We’re so grateful for every single one of you 🤍

Not another wellness workshop that leaves you overwhelmed or confused.

This is about real information + practical tools you can actually use.

Here’s what you’ll walk away with after Sunday:

✔ A clear understanding of what’s happening in your body + brain
✔ Strength training guidance that works with your body (not against it)
✔ Pelvic floor education most people have never been taught
✔ Tools to manage energy, fatigue, and those “why am I so tired?” days
✔ A supportive, no-BS environment where you can ask real questions

Led by a team that truly gets it:
• pelvic floor therapist
• occupational therapist
• strength coaches
ALL specializing in perimenopause + menopause

And yes—breakfast + a really good swag bag included.

This is open to non-members, so if you’ve been curious about learning more but didn’t know where to start—this is it.

It’s Coach Sho’s birthday ✨

The one who lights up every room she walks into… and then quietly humbles you five minutes into the workout 😅

She’s all sparkle, all energy, and somehow always knows exactly how to push you just enough (even when you don’t realize it yet). Strong, intentional, and a little bit sneaky with those burners 🔥

We’re so lucky to have you, Sho — thanks for bringing the vibes, the laughs, and the spice to every single class.

Drop some birthday love for Coach Sho below 💛🎉

Feeling off lately—but can’t quite explain why?

Low energy.
Brain fog.
Sleep all over the place.
Workouts that used to feel good suddenly feel…harder.

It might not be you. It might be perimenopause.

Most of us were never taught what’s actually happening in our bodies during this phase—and we’re left guessing, googling, or thinking we’re doing something wrong.

You’re not.

This Sunday, we’re hosting a 3-hour workshop to break it all down in a way that actually makes sense—and gives you tools you can start using right away.

We’ll cover what’s happening in your body + how to support your energy, strength, and overall well-being with guidance from:
• a pelvic floor therapist
• an occupational therapist
• strength coaches who specialize in this stage of life

Plus: breakfast + a stacked swag bag ☕️

Open to non-members—bring a friend who needs this.

We have said it before and we will say it again… the thing that makes KG Strong so special is the community.

We are so much more than a group of people who like to get strong as hell. There are so many different clubs and gatherings that have spurred from coming together in the studio over shared interests and making connections outside of the studio.

From movies, to book club, to dinners and more the latest group is a monthly craft club hosted by a former strong mom!
