Did you know that during the teen years, girls drop out of sports at a rate approximately six times higher than the rate at which boys drop out of sports?(1)

There are many reasons girls may become less active in adolescence, including declining confidence, concerns related to menstruation, lack of positive role models, and financial barriers to participation in athletics.(2) Unfortunately, this decline in activity occurs at a crucial time when individuals instead could be building bone density, muscular strength, and a positive relationship with movement and their bodies.

If you have been inside Motivate Studios or take a look at our social media, you are likely aware that our environment skews female. Therefore, empowering young women and helping them gain confidence and strength is a cause very close to our hearts.

In an effort to help change the narrative for girls’ participation in sports and activity, Motivate is pleased to offer a class on April 19 for girls in 7th and 8th grade. Girls will have the chance to brainstorm solutions to some of the barriers they face to being active, share role models and positive social media accounts, and participate in a variety of activities led by Motivate’s coaches.

The class will take place in a supportive, welcoming environment. There will be multiple instructors present (who have clearances!) to showcase a variety of training backgrounds and styles.

When: April 19th at 11am

Where: Motivate Studios

Movements from ’s Monday 5:30pm & 6:30pm Lower Body Classes!!

1 - Adding some conditioning to squat day with “Side to Sky Jumps”. Members explode laterally from one foot to the other and then explode vertically. This exercise builds ankle strength and stability, while also recruiting different muscle fibers (Type 2x) for explosive speed and power.

2 - A perfect complement to leg day, Kait’s favorite - “Sit to Stand”. This exercise is as simple as it sounds- but it’s not easy! The goal is to move from a sitting position to a standing position without using your hands. By doing so, you work on hip/knee flexibility and strength, as well as recruiting all muscles in the lower body and the core for balance. This is a great functional exercise to prepare for pregnancy or age-related decline, when getting up on your own may be difficult.

MOMENTUM MONDAY is back!

One of the most powerful shifts you can make in your fitness journey has nothing to do with your workout plan. It’s all about your mindset 🩵

Coach Kristin, one of our fabulous trainers here at Motivate Studios, breaks it down simply: a growth mindset means believing that your abilities can develop through practice and dedication. Setbacks aren’t failures — they’re feedback. Every dropped weight, every missed rep, every “I can’t do that” is just missing one small word:

✨ yet. ✨

You can’t lift that weight — yet.
You don’t know that move — yet.
You haven’t tried that class — yet.

At Motivate, we’re here to cheer you on every step of the way and give you the tools to keep growing. Because that’s exactly what we’re all here to do — together. Coach Kristin is currently accepting new clients!

DM us to book a consultation and start your growth journey with her today.

Happy Momentum Monday!
Welcome to our new series designed to get your week moving forward! 🩵

This week’s post comes from one of our fabulous trainers here at Motivate Studios — Coach Kristin! She’s passionate about helping you build a fitness journey that’s rooted in self-care, not shame — and the science backs her up.

Research shows that when exercise is driven by your own values and internal motivation rather than external pressure, you’re far more likely to stick with it long-term. That’s the Motivate way.

Ready to make it personal? Coach Kristin is currently accepting new clients and would love to help you find YOUR why and build a plan that works for YOU.

DM us to book with Coach Kristin today!
