Empower U
Group Training
At Empower U we thrive on the adage “knowledge is power” and our courses provide just that. Our 4 group courses are booked by a company or gym (such as those conducted with our partners in health) with up to 25 participants for a one hour course that is performed at the company’s location. All equipment is provided by Empower U and all that is required to host a class is an open space for individuals to move freely. Each group course is designed to improve pain and dysfunction in a specific area of the body and paired with a functional movement that is most beneficial to that muscle group or area. Courses can be mixed and matched for pain management and its functional movement.
We are constantly evolving to provide the most updated material and modifications within each course. Questions, comments, or recommendations contact us here.

Common questions about our group classes:
What course is the most popular?
The Pain Management & Functional Movement for low back pain and the functional squat is currently the most requested course for each site at this time. This is followed up by our shoulder and mid back pain course and the Turkish Get-Up.
Who would benefit from these courses?
Our courses are designed to benefit a wide range of groups, including sports teams seeking to enhance performance and prevent injuries, boutique gyms and fitness studios looking to offer specialized training to their clients, and corporate offices aiming to promote employee health and wellness. The youngest we have had in our course is a 14-year-old female who was having hip pain during cross country events, while the oldest was an 86 year old who had difficulty with typical everyday tasks of grabbing items off of the top of a shelf. Our courses offer a variety of techniques for strength and mobility with modification geared towards ALL populations. Each course is limited to a maximum of 25 participants to ensure quality of material where everyone has some type of hands on experience by the course instructor.
How far do you travel?
Currently the furthest Empower U has traveled is 6 hours or near 400 miles from Sioux Falls. We do charge mileage for anything greater than 70 miles from Sioux Falls at the IRS minimum at the time of when booked. If able to, we attempt to find our own housing to keep cost as low as possible when traveling to further locations. Locations which we do not charge for housing are: Spearfish SD, Rapid City SD, Omaha NE, Kansas City MO, Minneapolis MN.
