 CHAARG aims to ignite a passion for movement in college women. Too many college women rely solely on the elliptical for exercise. Their mission is to “liberate girls from the elliptical” + show them that fitness can [+ should!] be fun… + that working out is better with friends!

Once you join CHAARG, you are welcomed into a supportive + empowering community of 10,000+ women! Every week, you’ll try a different fitness class — like: pilates, kickboxing, cardio dance, + more! When you workout, you’ll feel good — but, when you surround yourself with people to support you, you’ll feel even better. CHAARG combines great friends + fun workouts to help every member feel their best.
