Course description
She is Strong combines simple mat Pilates and stretching with Bible-based devotion and discussion for teen girls. The course focuses on strength in Christ, confidence, identity, and friendship alongside physical movement.
The movement is beginner-friendly, with modifications available. Students may pause for water at any time and should stop and tell a leader about unusual pain or discomfort.

Mrs. Netherton describes the class as more than Pilates: a comfortable place to move, learn from Scripture, ask questions, encourage one another, and build friendships.
