inspire a nation, to turn the fitness world on its head, and to truly find
alternative ways to ROCK. We aspire to change minds before bodies and use beat
and alternative movement to launch people to new heights of self worth,
happiness and human connection. AKA, release their INNER ROCKSTARS. POUND® was
created in 2011 by two women who were both recreational drummers and former
college athletes. They relied heavily on stability-based exercises like pilates
to keep their bodies aligned, symmetrical and lean, but were bored with routine
and longed to reignite the fun in exercise. It wasn’t until they were forced to
drum without a stool and squat over the drum kit that they realized drumming and
exercise could be one and the same. Led by co-creator and CEO, Kirsten Potenza,
POUND® is currently taught by over 25,000 instructors in 100+ countries to
hundreds of thousands of participants a week, making an active, supportive and
passionate community.
