WORKSHOPS
Strength, Movement & Menopause
A Women’s Health and Wellness Workshop
Led by Erika Levy & Autumn Carpenter
Join us on Saturday, October 24th at West Coast Fitness for an interactive workshop blending education, strength training, and yoga to empower and support women through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.
Together, we’ll explore why fitness may feel different in midlife and how to adapt your approach to movement, nutrition, and recovery. We’ll challenge old messages about women’s bodies and aging, and learn how strength training, journaling, and intentional movement support us through this transition.
NOTE: This workshop is being rescheduled to a later date. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Please email Erika to learn more.
The Art of Fusing Formats
Instructor Workshop
Date: Saturday, November 7
Time: 1:00 PM – 7:30 PM

Description
The Art of Fusing Formats is a continuing education course for group fitness professionals who want a practical system for designing balanced, creative classes.
Whether you choreograph to music or teach from an outline, the Fusion Framework helps you organize your ideas and plan efficiently and effectively.
This isn’t a branded format or prescribed choreography. You choose the moves. The framework guides the process to build balanced, total-body workouts.
We take a Master Class, break it down and collaborate to create a class together. You’ll leave with a planning system you can use for years to come, with the flexibility to develop and monetize your own content.

Testimonials for Moving Through Menopause Workshop
“Meeting other women on a similar journey was the most valuable part of the workshop. The workout provided a good example of ways to combine a warm-up, yoga, strength training, and plyometrics into 1 session (as opposed to separate sessions dedicated to each element).”
“The best part was the camaraderie and group sharing. I felt like I had an instant support group of ladies that have already been going through what I am about to embark on.”
— Daniela“The most valuable part for me was coming together in a community to learn about coming changes while being empowered with information about things we can do to live with healthy balance.”
— Megan“The most valuable part of the workshop was being in community, learning updated knowledge from Erika and Autumn and doing a work out to top it off!”
— Martha“It felt like a safe and judgement free space. I also appreciated some of the smaller tips the most, like basing protein goals on your goal weight (not current weight) or doing some mobility/stretching while between sets when doing strength training. ”
“The most meaningful aspect of the workshop was remembering to just show up for what I can consistently and not get too overwhelmed with the thought of having to spend hours each day to make the positive changes.”
