At PowHERful Phnom Penh, we are excited to support women to feel strong and confident in their bodies! We see strength and confidence as integral ingredients to tap into your full potential in life and encourage others to do the same. So our goal with our powHERful community is to introduce women to the tools, ideas and actionable steps to help them truly become empowHERed & powHERful.
For this, we put our focus on what the body is CAPABLE of instead of what it looks like. This is why our primary tool is strength training, as it allows us to achieve previously “impossible” things. This achievement creates belief and confidence in our capabilities which radiates to other areas in life.
Vision
Empowering women in their self-development journey to increase their mental and physical strength
Mission
We provide women in Phnom Penh a community with the training, tools and resources to achieve a confident and more empowered self.
Our Training
Gym Confidence
With our L.I.F.T. 101 course, we pave the way for women to feel confident in the gym through learning how to use the machines and free weights correctly and effectively. Besides that, we also offer shorter workshops and Gym Confidence Tours with the same goal: equip women with the knowledge and recommendations to make the most of their gym training and feel less intimidated.
Group Training
In our physical location, LIFT Academy, our core aim is to help you achieve results without wasting time and money. We give you personalized guidance specific to your goals in a supportive small group environment. Our programs are science-backed and include customized nutrition coaching, progress checks, advice for staying on track, and regular meet-ups with our community. No matter if you aim to gain strength, lose fat, build muscle, or improve your overall well-being, we are excited to support you on your journey!

Our Team
Team Captain Hanna
I am excited every day to support women to feel strong and confident in their bodies! I know from my own experience how frustrating it is to be unhappy but not knowing how exactly to change it. After years of frustration, I hired Coach Shannon and, within months, gained muscles, strength, and tons of confidence. Since then, I am driven to make such a life change available to other women!
Coach Shannon
