About UsBomani Strength is a local club affiliate of Steve’s Club National Program, which is a non-Profit that offers fitness to at-risk youth at a free or reduced cost. Bomani Strength was founded by Amanda Stanoszek in 2013, and is the only one of its kind in the Greater Cleveland Area. She began working with athletes from East Cleveland; bringing them both health and fitness, in the mornings before school. The program has since expanded to reach other youth within the Cleveland Municipal School District, working with kids from Collinwood and Lincoln West High Schools
Bomani Strength offers strength and conditioning programs to young men and women living in the inner city that may not otherwise have the opportunity to train outside of their school-sponsored sports program. Bomani Strength’s goals are to provide valuable life lessons through positive competition, nutrition, commitment, integrity, diversity, and unity. These skills are not only necessary in the gym, but in life as well. Bomani Strength main focuses include: 1. Strong and Beautiful: Educating young women about health and fitness, and instilling in them that being strong is being beautiful. 2. Nutritional Seminars: Educating the youth about healthy eating, teen obesity*, and sports nutrition/awareness that align with the OSHAA. 3. Above-The Neck Fitness: Educating athletes about the importance of school and incorporating academics in the program such as ACT tutoring and study tables. |
