We are revolutionizing Women’s wellness in Winnipeg, one stage at a time.


Welcome to Women Through the Ages, a bold and breakthrough initiative at the Rady JCC, designed by women for women. It is truly unlike anything else currently offered in Winnipeg.

Thanks to the generous support of a Women’s Endowment Fund Grant through the Jewish Foundation of Manitoba, we’ve created a dynamic and one-of-a-kind fitness platform that meets women where they are. From brand-new moms to wise and vibrant babas, this program empowers women through every phase of life.

This isn’t just fitness.

This is about health, confidence, and community.

Why Women Will Love Our 'Women Through the Ages' Program:

Created for Women, by Women: Designed by expert trainer Lindsey Gudbjartson to meet real women’s needs at every life stage.
A Perfect Fit at Every Age: From prenatal to post-menopause, there’s a class tailored just for you.
Only at the Rady: These one-of-a-kind programs are exclusive to our community. Winnipeg’s never seen anything like it.
Feel Strong, Learn Lots, Have Fun: Expert-led classes that are energizing, educational, and always uplifting.
Supportive, Safe, and Empowering: Led by certified trainers who truly understand women’s health and movement.
More Than a Workout: Build real connections with other women in a warm and welcoming space.

Led by Rady JCC Master Trainer Lindsey Gudbjartson, a true innovator in women’s fitness, and supported by a team of passionate professionals, this five-week series was created right here at the Rady JCC.

You won’t find anything like it anywhere else in the city.

We recognized a critical gap in Winnipeg’s fitness and wellness landscape, especially when it comes to safe, effective, and personalized programming for Jewish women of all ages.

This new suite of programs bridges that gap, addressing the real health needs around prenatal fitness, pelvic floor health, menopause, and osteoporosis with expert care and a lot of heart.

Through this grant, we’ve also trained our team with top-tier certifications and secured the proper equipment to bring you fun, functional, and cutting-edge programming that supports long-term health and wellness.

From gentle yoga and breathwork to impact training and strength sessions, Women Through the Ages is your safe, supportive, and powerful place to grow stronger, together.

With expert guidance, proper training, and specialized equipment, we’re offering a platform of programming that supports real-life needs: prenatal fitness, pelvic floor health, midlife strength, and osteoporosis-safe movement.
