Mission
Team Survivor's mission is empowering all women who are going through or have had cancer to thrive through fitness and community.
We partner with locally-owned gyms, studios, and clubs as well as personal trainers who offer fitness classes at no cost to our members - from yoga, tap, jazz, Zumba, and spin classes to strength & conditioning at the gym, group walking/hiking, rowing both on the water and indoors, and more.
We welcome female-identifying and nonbinary survivors and thrivers from all walks of life, at any fitness level, who have had any type of cancer diagnosis, whether recently diagnosed, in treatment, or a 20+ year survivor.
Our story
A 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Austin, TX, Team Survivor has been entirely volunteer-driven since its founding in 1995.
Hundreds have participated in our programs since the organization was started as Capital of Texas Team Survivor by four brave women who jumped out of their water exercise class into a full triathlon. These ladies are truly inspirational, but rest assured that athletic ability is not required. Even if you're brand new to exercise, we're here to support you in getting started safely.
Keeping up all our programs for over 30 years while entirely driven by volunteers is no small feat, and we have PLENTY of folks to thank for that. Our heartfelt gratitude goes to our donors and sponsors, all who have supported us in many other ways, and the incredible instructors and businesses who gift Team Survivor with their time, talent, and spaces.
This is just the beginning
We believe in a world where all women who have had a cancer diagnosis have the resources and support to take an active role in their ongoing physical and emotional well-being.
Become a member in two quick and easy steps, and get free access to a broad range of fitness classes activities throughout the greater Austin area.
