The Sports Backers’ Fitness Warriors program trains area residents to be professional fitness instructors. It is breaking down barriers and making physical activity accessible to all corners of the Richmond region, particularly under-served communities that face disproportionate rates of chronic disease. Throughout the pandemic The Fitness Warriors  program has continued to engage the community through free fitness classes on Zoom as well as hosting socially distant outdoor classes following the CDC guidelines.  With your donation Sports Backers’ is able to offer FREE fitness classes and discount running events to communities that are often over looked!

Due to COVID-19, we had to stop all in-person events & cancel all in-person programming in the Spring. But, our staff is hard at work bringing virtual & social distancing options to our region including virtual & outside fitness classes, virtual kids physical activity videos & classes, workout challenges, virtual events, &, most recently, socially distanced in-person events.
