Our spring GirlStrong season has just begun and we are all in!!

These girls inspire me every day with their thoughtfulness, dedication, and motivation to push themselves and each other!!

GirlStrong camp is in full swing and we are having a blast!!
Scavenger hunts on the Lansing Trails, Pride capture the flag, Power Pose freeze tag, balloon building challenges, and today we learned about trust with blind-folded partner relay races!

We've been talking a lot about healthy eating so last night our teen girls made overnight oats to take home. Afterwards we explored the Lansing Trails with a 2.5 mile walk!

GirlStrong is about giving girls a safe space and the freedom to explore their feelings, their challenges, their strengths, and who they are becoming.

Hi! Our summer session is off to an awesome start, positive affirmations, weekly fitness challenges, healthy eating habits and more!
Working with another amazing group of girls has me thinking of future offerings of GirlStrong.

Would there be any interest in a mini GirlStrong camp the last week of August or the first week of September before school starts? Let me know in the comments!

Tonight's Twilight 5k was amazing. I got to witness my GirlStrong girls push themselves, cheer on their teammates, fight through sore feet, and banged up knees, and still cross the finish line smiling and proud of what they accomplished!
They are so inspiring and I am honored to be their Coach. I can't wait for our summer session! 💜🩵🩷

Over the course of the program we will create community, make friends, build self-esteem and body positivity, what it means to stand up for ourselves and others. We'll challenge not only our mind but our bodies with functional fitness and movement work.

Hi! I'm Kirsten, the owner of GirlStrong. I started this program with the intention of helping young girls find their strength; socially, emotionally, and physically. In reality, they've helped me find mine.
They show up, they do hard things, talk about hard things, support each other, lift each other up, and they are true to who they are. These amazing girls give me so much hope, and I am so excited to continue learning and teaching through GirlStrong.

We had the most amazing time tonight walking in the parade. My heart is so happy seeing all these amazing girls, with their ideas, creativity, kindness, and strength. I wish I took more pictures but I was too overwhelmed with emotion 🩵🩷💜 also - note for next year, we need 4 times more goody bags! 😆
