Empoderadas Gym LLC | Application Preview
Empoderadas Gym LLC, a Latina-owned, all-women gym in Austin, is seeking government funding to support its rent and equipment costs. The gym aims to provide a safe and nurturing environment where women can empower one another and pursue their fitness goals. Currently facing challenges with high rent and a limited membership base, the grant will help create a comfortable space tailored for female clients.
The business plan highlights a gap in the local market for exclusive women's gyms. While some facilities offer women-only personal training, few allow women to access the gym independently. Empoderadas Gym will provide flexible membership options alongside personal training, various classes, and childcare services, addressing the needs of diverse clients. With competitive pricing compared to commercial and private gyms, the gym will prioritize quality, service, and community support through collaboration with local businesses.
Funding approval will enable the gym to foster a supportive community for women in Austin, empowering them to achieve their fitness aspirations. The need for a women-centric space is emphasized, particularly in an industry often dominated by men. Empoderadas Gym seeks to attract women of all skill levels and backgrounds, offering an environment where they can focus on their health and well-being.

Funding Usage
The funding will go to rent, and equipment for the gym. We are a small Latina owned all women gym in Austin. Rent is a bit pricy and at the moment we do not have many members. We open to give a safe and comfortable space for women to empower each other and reach their fitness goals. In order to achieve this I am requesting this grant to help many women feel safe and comfortable at the gym.

Business Plan
When researching around my area at all the gym’s I did not find any that were just exclusive for women, I did find a few where they offer group training or personal training just for women, however you couldn’t just go and use the facility on your own. Personal training around my area is $150 a month that includes an hour-long session personalized to your goals, 4 sessions a week. At Empoderadas Gym not only will we offer personal trainers we will also have memberships for clients who wish to use the gym space because not everyone likes to have a personal trainer. We will offer a variety of classes to make it fun and change up the routine. The location is center in South Austin where there is a lot of traffic, perfect for someone to find the location. Commercial gym’s charge $40 a month making it $480 a year. Private gym’s charge $80 a month making it $960 a year. Personal trainers $1,800 a year. My business price will be both Quality and Service Driven, not only will we offer amazing classes and training will also have the best equipment, and childcare to help out our clients make it to the gym. That is how I plan to grow my business also buy helping out other small business I sell other small business activewear at the gym and supplements we all help each other. Investors will be helping many women in Austin achieve their fitness goals and also build a big community for women. Join me to help women grow and empower them. Show them that they can achieve everything no matter who they are. Lets give them hope, and a safe and comfortable place for just them. Lets take care of all the women around us, and for our future generation.

Self Identified Competition
My competitors are commercial gyms like planet fitness and golds gym, as well as private gyms like lift atx, and factory gym. Commercial gyms have cheaper memberships than Empoderadas Gym and Private gyms have more expensive memberships. However I offer safety and comfort for women who are intimated to step foot in the gym, or to try out a new workout. The fitness industry is dominated by men specially in weight lifting. Not at Empoderadas gym. We also offer day care which a lot of gym stoped offering, we want to help all type of women achieve their fitness goals, from all ages, all skill levels, and mothers or not mothers. What makes Empoderadas gym different from my competitors is that we are an all women gym owned my a Latina woman. All gym are dominated by men either we admit it or not. I have had many women who have had a bad experience at a commercial gym because of that. also a lot of women are intimidated. I started Empoderadas Gym to create a safe space for all women we also offer day care which a lot of gym stoped offering, we want to help all type of women achieve their fitness goals, from all ages, all skill levels, and mothers or not mothers. Join me to empower all the women around Austin and help them reach their fitness goals.
