This course is led by:
-Natalie, CPT, Certified Trauma-Informed Weightlifting Practitioner & the co-founder of Gym Space Equity (GSEQ) here in Portland.
-Gabi Dixson - a Social Worker, Professional Strongwoman + Coach, and the (other) co-founder of Gym Space Equity.
Gym Space Equity is an Oregon nonprofit focused on "lowering barriers to access + increasing representation in fitness spaces, expanding joy in movement."
With our mission to make fitness more equitable, we believe that change comes from within the industry itself.
We've built a continuing education training: Soft Skills for Strength Coaches to help equip fitness professionals with the knowledge, resources, and applications to improve their practices.
This workshop is a continuation of that.
One of the hardest challenges we face, as coaches? Supporting all individuals in a group coaching format- ensuring that no one is left behind (without overextending ourselves in the process).
That's what this version is all about: more hands-on, real-life examples for you to bring to the coaching floor in your every day.
