Happy Black History Month! Join Sweat Lit X aSweatLife on February 25th for a total body workout with Afrobeat/Caribbean inspired music. Build strength, have fun and sweat with Master Trainer and aSweatLife Ambassador Kaylla Spinks.
Black History Month has been around in the United States since 1976, and after last summer’s Black Lives Matter protests and the murder of George Floyd, we’re being more thoughtful than ever in how we’re called to commemorate the month (and how we act and learn the other eleven months of the year).
That’s especially important to us as leaders and creators in wellness. aSweatLife is a woman-led organization with a renewed focus on inclusivity within the fitness, health, and wellness industries. As an organization that has always valued diversity, we realize we can do more. In 2020, the Better with Friends Committee was born – compiled of aSweatLife ambassadors who are inspired to integrate diversity in health and fitness.
