Classes
Our signature offering. Come get stronger with like-minded people.
The NEW MWF 12-1PM class begins Wednesday, May 1st!!!
Sign up now to get a spot—the rest of our classes are full (for now)!
About the Anchor Open Class
The “Open” class is simply a mixed-gender and age class (we also offer women’s-only classes for those that prefer that setting, so sign up for where you’ll feel most comfortable!).
These classes meet 2 or 3 days per week for 60 or 90 minutes. Our coaches are there to provide you with all of your programming, as well as any movement tips and advice you need as you progress.
For 2-day-per-week variant classes, you also get an additional third day of programming to do on your own!
Each class is limited to 10 participants in our newly-renovated and outfitted facility in downtown Durham.
About the Anchor Women’s-only Class
This class meets Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4:30—6PM
When Anchor started, the women’s class was our very first offering. Our coaches couldn’t be more passionate about bringing women into the sport of powerlifting and helping women everywhere to realize all of the benefits this sport can bring to their lives.
These classes meet for 90 minutes. Our coaches are there to provide you with all of your programming, as well as movement tips and advice you need as you progress.
Scholarship Fund
Help bring lifting to underserved populations.
Add a small amount every month to our scholarship fund! This is a perfect way to give to the greater community that we are trying to build up through Anchor.
100% of scholarship revenue directly funds underserved individuals through our classes, coaching, and other programs in their quest to get stronger and find their community!
We will select beneficiaries based on financial need and provide them with memberships to our classes, movement coaching, distance coaching, or Anchor classes.
Please contribute even a small amount monthly to help expand people’s ability to get stronger, wherever they are starting from.
