The Inclusive Fitness Finder is an interactive map of LGBTQ+ friendly fitness spaces
-
An inclusive gym is more than just a physical fitness space. It's a supportive, safe, and affirming environment where LGBTQ+ individuals can pursue their health and fitness goals without fear of discrimination or judgment.
Key characteristics of an inclusive gym include:
Diverse and Welcoming Environment
Staff Training
Visible Commitment to Inclusivity
Community Engagement and Support
Recognition and Certification
-
Gyms and fitness spaces are evaluated based on their commitment to LGBTQ+ inclusivity, which includes staff training, inclusive policies, and a welcoming environment.
-
In light of increasing anti-LGBTQ+ legislation and the mental health challenges faced by Queer youth, OUTAIM seeks to ensure that future generations, regardless of their identity, have access to welcoming and inclusive fitness environments.
