Empower Trainers, Strengthen Communities: A New Era of Fitness in Saint Lucia

A healthier community starts with movement, and thanks to a groundbreaking partnership between MoveStrong and the National Insurance Corporation (NIC), fitness will be more accessible than ever across Saint Lucia. With ten outdoor fitness areas set for installation across the island, locals will have free access to high-quality training equipment designed for functional movement, strength, and agility.

The project is already making an impact—with outdoor gyms active in Beausejour and Pigeon Island, and construction nearing completion in Soufriere. Soon, additional fitness stations will open across Babonneau, Vigie, Entrepot, La Ressource, Dennery, Mon Repos, Micoud, Laborie, Choiseul, and Anse-La-Raye—bringing fitness opportunities closer to home for thousands of residents.

Empowering Local Trainers for Long-Term Success

Since a great fitness space is only as effective as the trainers who lead it, MoveStrong hosted an intensive trainer certification workshop, preparing 22 fitness coaches across various communities to lead safe, engaging, and effective outdoor workouts at the new facilities.

Held at the Anthony ‘Tony’ Fessal Outdoor Fitness Gym on the Pigeon Island Causeway, this hands-on training experience gave coaches the tools they need to help people move better, feel stronger, and live healthier. The staff training class covered functional fitness fundamentals, progressive workout design, safe coaching techniques, and community-focused programming.

More Than Equipment: Ongoing Training & Support

MoveStrong understands that fitness isn’t just about equipment—it’s about long-term support and education. That’s why we provide full-service trainer certification and resources, ensuring facilities have the tools, knowledge, and guidance needed to maximize impact. The newly minted coaches in St. Lucia are now equipped with the knowledge to create inclusive workout programs for all ages and fitness levels.
