Kickboxing for a Cause: LES Girls Club

Join us at Hit House on Wednesday, May 10th at 7:30pm for a 45 minute all-levels kickboxing class, raising awareness and funds for our neighbors, the LES Girls Club. Class is barefoot and glove rental is complimentary, plus special goodie bag and complimentary hydration! Digital lockers and shower amenities included. 

The Lower Eastside Girls Club supports young women and gender expansive youth of color throughout New York City in leveraging their inner power to shape a better future for themselves, their community, and the world. As an innovative learning hub, we model practices of community resilience and self-reliance. By championing young people and channeling their curiosity and creative energy, we are transforming our world to one of  “Joy. Power. Possibility.”

Every year, hundreds of youth ages 10–23 visit our Center for Community facility where we offer free after-school, in-school, weekend and summer programming in STEM, Arts, Digital Media, Sound, Wellness, Civic Engagement and Leadership. Our 35,000 sq. ft facility includes a Maker Shop for coding and robotics; Environmental Studies lab for STEM exploration; Alphabet City Art School for visual arts and crafts; Center for Media and Social Justice for digital media, film and photography; Sound Studio for music production and our radio station/podcast, WGRL (Where Girl Radio Lives); Design Studio for fashion and material arts; an expansive and productive rooftop farm; full Culinary Education Center; and 64-seat dome planetarium.
