Working out and staying fit is not something that only adults can benefit from. Empower Fitness also addresses the needs that young student athletes have in order to boost their athletic performance. The youth development class is another program that is available at Empower Fitness. This program is for kids grades 4-8 and focuses on areas like speed and agility as well as helping these young athletes to develop power, coordination, teamwork skills, and confidence.
So how did Empower Fitness come to be? Emma Yowell, owner of Empower Fitness, seemed to be on a mission to achieve the goal of providing a gym from early on in her life. She said, “Ever since I was younger, I knew I wanted to open a gym, it was just a matter of time. And I knew I wanted to come back here because I felt like we needed another 24/7 gym, ‘cause at the time there were no 24/7 gyms. And so, growing up I knew we struggled finding a place to work out and get some top training for athletes. And so, I knew that we needed something in McPherson for our younger athletes to better perform during their sports. I just wanted to give back to the youth, pretty much.”
