As always, SFAB is a trauma-informed and weight-inclusive program.

While we understand the pressure to conform to societal norms, we do not coach weight loss or aesthetics goals. Instead, we focus on creating confidence from competence.

We understand strength training can be triggering for a variety of reason, and we provide tools on day 1 to minimize risk and maximize your sense of safety.
