&STRENGTH
Find strength & healing at home
Created by OBF, &STRENGTH incorporates the science of muscle strengthening with intentional healing and repair for your physical and mental self. In a world of “get ripped” or “namaste”, there is another way to move as a human. This program takes a different approach to wellness and establishes a foundation to overall health. You’ll learn to breathe, meditate, stretch, and strengthen in your own space and on your own time. There are no reps and no requirements — come exactly as you are, wherever you are.
New on-demand classes are added on Sundays each week, so you can find breath and movement when it’s convenient for you. Whether you’re home, traveling, or at the office, you can always access OBF classes to support you where you need it the most.

“I created this program because I wanted to build strength but feel calm doing it.”
— Olivia Bethmann
The science behind &STRENGTH
Research has shown that strength training is beneficial for our health, especially as we age. It helps to build lean muscle mass along with strong bones, can aid in our prevention of chronic disease, and is a key factor in mental health.
Breathwork, a newer topic in western medicine research, also has positive effects toward mental health and supports nervous system regulation.
If we combine these two practices with repetitive, meditative movement we can build strength while also connecting our body with our mind in a safe and controlled environment. We’re building resiliency and the ability to live with stress rather than eliminate it.
