In collaboration with the UVA Fitness Clinic, we developed Go Girls!, a dance-based fitness support group for girls ages 7-18.

Through this program, we aim to:

  • Introduce girls to exercise in a fun environment where they can meet other girls and support each other.
  • Enable girls to discover and develop enjoyment of exercise.
  • Educate girls and their families about weight-related medical and reproductive issues.
  • Help girls and their families implement healthy lifestyle changes.
