MISSION - WHAT WE DO

The New Beginnings Center's mission is to help financially disadvantaged women discover the strength in themselves, inside and out, and to become the healthiest they can be through individualized world-class coaching in fitness, nutrition, and behavior change.

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Building Wellness From The Inside Out The program provides physical fitness, nutrition education, and self-actualization classes for women of low-income for one year. This program allows women to gain the holistic knowledge and skills needed to build and sustain a healthy lifestyle long-term. In the area of fitness, each client is assessed individually by a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and has fitness and nutrition programs designed to meet their wellness needs. Clients meet in 24 sessions with the coaches and body weight, BMI, and improvements in health markers are measured and tracked. Self-image, nutrition, and healthy living habits surveys will be taken before and after the 24 sessions to measure progress. After the initial 24 sessions are complete, clients continue to attend group exercise classes for 9 months and are encouraged to support each other in complying with the foundational wellness principles of the program. Coaches continue to monitor clients and follow up outcomes are measured. Satellite Locations TNBC operates several satellite programs in order to reach low-income women in all corners of Nashville. TNBC makes this mobile program available to women through partnerships with other nonprofits, such as St. Luke's Community House, the Bethlehem Center of Nashville, Inglewood Elementary, the SE Branch of the Nashville Public Library in Antioch, and the McGruder Family Resource Center. These partnerships allow TNBC to reach more women in the Nashville area who may not have the means to travel to TNBC's Craighead Street location. Similar to our signature 12-week program, the programs at these locations include strength and conditioning training, nutritional education, and personal empowerment classes that focus on healthy choices for nutrition, activity and exercise, body image, and self-confidence. Our personal trainers travel to these facilities with all the necessary materials and equipment to ensure that these clients receive the same level of education offered at the main center. Supplemental Workshops TNBC has expanded its ability to reach low-income clients by offering workshops once a month that are designed to provide access to supplemental preventative wellness programming in addition to the wellness programming in our signature 12-week program. Previous workshops include: Food Preparation with Health in Mind Hearing Screenings Conquer Clutter Workshop Vision Board Workshop Life hacks for more energy, less stress, to move better and hurt less Kids work out with Safe Haven Clothing Swap Strengthen My Inner Motivator Adverse Childhood Experiences Workshop CSA Cooking Demo with the Green Door Gourmet Habitat for Humanity Information Meeting Moving Beyond Trauma Women's Health Forum - Breast Cancer Awareness Financial Wellness Workshop Personal Safety Workshop Kids in the Kitchen with the Junior League Mindfulness Workshop Accountability Class Workshop Container Gardening with The Nashville Food Project Bites & Beats (healthy snacks and dance fitness) Self-defense Money Matters Financial Goal Setting Soups and Stews with Gilda's Club Fed Up Documentary Viewing and Discussion Artful Meditation (Abstract Painting) Stress Reduction through Organizing and De-cluttering
