At The Athlete Lab, we believe movement, community, and human connection are powerful — especially during times of uncertainty.
You may have seen or heard about the “Day of Truth and Freedom” taking place across Minnesota. We want to share where we stand, clearly and thoughtfully.
We are a space rooted in care, inclusion, and humanity. We believe every person deserves dignity, safety, and respect — regardless of background, beliefs, or where they come from.
For that reason, we will remain open.
Not because we’re ignoring what’s happening — but because we believe that now, more than ever, people need a place to breathe, move, feel supported, and take care of themselves. For many, that hour in the gym is grounding. It’s stabilizing. It’s healing.
We also believe that meaningful change comes from thoughtful action, not fear. Behind the scenes, we are taking steps to communicate with leaders and decision-makers to advocate for compassion, fairness, and an end to practices that create fear or division.
Our doors remain open to everyone.
Our space remains one of support, respect, and community.
And our mission remains unchanged: helping people feel stronger — physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Thank you for being part of a community that leads with heart.
— The Athlete Lab Team 💙
