About
Empowering Women, Building Community
Club Ekta is dedicated to inspiring women in Bradford through fitness, creativity, and meaningful connections. Our mission is to foster a supportive and inclusive space where wellness thrives and friendships grow.
We create inclusive, culturally sensitive spaces where women of all ages and backgrounds can come together to focus on their physical health, mental wellbeing, and personal growth.
We run women-only fitness classes such as yoga, Pilates, and strength training, alongside creative workshops, hikes, social events, and wellness experiences. Every session is designed to build confidence, community, and inner strength.
Our work goes beyond fitness – it’s about creating a sisterhood. A place where women feel seen, supported, and inspired to live healthier, fuller lives.
