Community around exercise
Our goal is to ensure that every Athlete feels a part of the community.
This empowers them to choose a lifetime of health and wellness thus improving
their physical, mental, and emotional health.
Classes are uniquely designed to support the needs of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).
Bloom instructors are highly qualified to provide fitness instruction within the IDD community.
Our class priorities in order of importance are: safety, fun, community, encouragement, health, and fitness.

Strength
Bloom Strength combines light dumbbell resistance training with bodyweight strength training. Athletes complete intentionally designed exercises focused on proper form and body alignment.
