Yes. Sovana is a women-focused training experience created specifically for women, with coaching, programming, and community built around women’s needs and goals. All Sovana group classes are exclusively for women.

However, Sovana operates inside the Burrell Sports Performance facility in Northville, so the building itself is a shared training space. You may briefly pass athletes, including men, in common or transition areas. Private and semi-private Sovana sessions may also take place on the blacktop while BSP athletes are training on the turf.

Your Sovana session will always remain women-focused and led by a Sovana coach. If training in a shared environment would make you uncomfortable, please contact us before booking. We’ll do our best to recommend a time with less facility overlap.

Not at all. Sovana welcomes beginners and experienced lifters. Your coach will explain each movement, help you select an appropriate weight, and offer modifications based on your current ability.

Sovana offers coached group classes, semi-private training, and one-on-one private training. Group classes provide structured programming and community, while semi-private and private training offer more individualized attention.

Group classes are a great fit if you enjoy training alongside other women with a coach guiding the session. Semi-private training is designed for up to three people who want a more personalized experience while training, perfect if you already have a friend or small group you want to workout with. Private training offers fully individualized one-on-one coaching. If you’re unsure, contact us and we’ll help you choose.

Arrive a few minutes early in comfortable workout clothing, athletic shoes and bring a water bottle. We do have a water filling station on site that you can use, your coach will also help you get oriented and explain the workout prior to class starting.

As a reminder, we do co-share the space with Burrell Sports Performance so please enter through the front door, facing the road that has “BSP” on it.

For group classes we have an eight-hour cancellation window and semi-private and one-on-one is 12 hours. Please cancel through our app. If you fail to do so, group class participants will result in a loss of a session while semi-private clients will be charged $25 each and one-on-one will be charged $50. We understand that life happens but communication is key and we want to respect our trainers’ time.
