Folks,
Verve has teamed up with OUTWOD to host an event on Saturday June 23rd @ 10am.
OUTWOD is the largest international initiative for bringing together LGBT+ athletes and their allies to raise funds for local charitable organizations and sweat together in a safe, inclusive group fitness environment.
OUTWOD’s mission is to promote active and fit lifestyles of our LGBT+ community and allies.
Starting at 10am there will be a brief intro about OUTWOD and their mission from an OUTWOD representative. After that, the whiteboard intro begins. There will be two versions of the workout provided that Saturday. For folks with CrossFit experience the workout with contain more complex barbell and gymnastics movements. The second version will be for folks simply wanting to participate in the event with no CrossFit background. It is similar in nature but barbells are swapped for dumbbells and the gymnastics movements are more simple. Either way, it will be an awesome team workout. Oops. Did I not mention that earlier?? Yep, this will be a workout in teams of 3!! So invite your buddies from another gym, invite your co-workers, family, friends, anyone interested in joining our community for a day. All are welcome.
The purpose of this event is to continue to raise support for the LGBT+ community. Funds raised from this event will be going to the OUT Foundation. This foundation distributes money to several local and national LGBT+ charities that make an impact on the lives of our community and our future. These include, but are not limited to:
–Family Equality Council
–SAGE: Advocacy and Services for LGBT Elders
–Anti-Violence Project
–Out Youth
–The Ali Forney Center
–TPAN
