In Her Circle x Barry's

Join us for a charity HIIT class as part of In Her Circle's movement week dedicated to raising funds for accessibe, timely postpartum mental health care.

This is more than a workout. It’s a chance to move with purpose, connect with community, and support mothers who need care now.

Every ticket helps fund weekly drop-in programming through the Pacific Postpartum Support Society (PPPSS), providing immediate, low-barrier care.

Our goal of $16,000 will fully fund one year of programming.

In BC, up to 1 in 4 women experience mental health challenges during pregnancy or after birth.

The postpartum period is a time of profound transition and vulnerability. When a mother is not supported, her well-being—and her baby’s—are at risk.

Yet too many are left without the care they need. Support often ends just weeks after birth, replaced by isolation and difficult-to-navigate systems.

When more serious challenges arise, families often face:

• 3–6 month waitlists for group support
• Limited access to timely, specialized care
• No mother-and-baby hospital care
• Little to no outpatient support after discharge

Barry's is the original HIIT workout that blends cardio and strength training. With expert trainers, immersive studios, and state-of-the-art equipment, this 50-minute group classe will combine cardio and muscle-specific strength work.

• First time? Please arrive by 2:15pm so we can provide a full walk through ahead of time
• Wear clothes you are comfortable running and sweating in, along with a good pair of running shoes
• Bring a water bottle to fill at the studio, or purchase one at the Fuel Bar
• Lockers are available in our change rooms, along with fully stocked showers with towel service

This is an all levels class and all bodies are welcome.

Modifications will be offered, please collaborate with the instructor if you have an injury or any limitations.

Note that this class involves running on treadmills. If this environment isn’t accessible to you, we invite you to explore other ways to get involved below.

In Her Circle is organized by people close to Jenna Dorman and grounded in lived experience.

In 2024, Jenna tragically died of postpartum suicide. Jenna was deeply loved by her family and supported by a strong, engaged community, and despite that, we were unable to help her access the level of care she needed during an incredibly acute period.

“In Her Circle” is inspired by the concentric circles of care that formed around Jenna in her illness, and calls on all of us to step into the circle of care surrounding mothers and families.
