I discovered FiA quite by accident. I have always been fitness minded- working out 6 days a week, running, and knowing my way around when it comes to weights and exercising. A good friend of mine convinced me to tagalong to a Saturday workout. It was love at first sight. I found a community of women who are passionate about creating workouts, but also passionate about community. It quickly became a full fledge addiction. I loved the people. I loved the challenge. I loved it all. Shortly after, I was pushed towards Qing (leading) a workout. That’s when I dove in head first. How could I push the limits and challenge people the way I was first challenged? Game on. It’s been a fun ride ever since. From socials, to terrain races, to early morning beat downs- these are my people and I love them! FiA gives me a place to fit in while also inspiring me to be the best version of myself! -Valor

I can’t express enough how much FiA has impacted my life. But if I had to sum it up, the words that come to mind are Game Changer! I went not knowing what to expect. Yes a workout, but what I have experienced with each workout is so much more!! I have made some really great friends that not only inspire me to live my best life but I have found that I can be of service to them & my community just as much. That is an incredibly empowering feeling! About a year ago my family & I made a bitter-sweet, state to state move. It was exciting & sad at the same time. But with that brought on a great deal of emotions for me. I was lonely, anxious, & I was feeling depressed! Not my usual self. So a couple more words come to mind. Answered prayers! I believe with everything in me that I was meant for FiA & FiA was meant for me! They have made me feel that important! I will forever be grateful to my FiA sisters!! -Kodak

FIA has changed my life immensely.  I've never been one to enjoy working out.  I've belonged to gyms for years and would go consistently for a while and then slack off.  I saw on Facebook thru a friend's page that they were starting a new bootcamp style workout that was FREE so I decided to go that first time and have been hooked ever since.  I've been going since Cherokee started in 2017 and kept with it.  I have had health issues and had to modify and I'm never judged for that.  The ladies are always so encouraging and helpful with modifications.  Best of all, I've made true friends and enjoy working out with them weekly.  I've found something that I enjoy being a part of and found lifetime friends. #bettertogether -Straight Shooter
