Bravura Weightlifting

OUR LAST MONTH

Bravura hit it’s 5 year anniversary this past September and it has been bittersweet ever since. We have made the decision to transition the space and equipment to coach as of November 1st. She will share her club and gym name in the near future. We congratulate her on this new journey and we know we are leaving our athletes in great hands!

We started this place out of a need we felt existed in Houston for more weightlifting facilities and a demand to learn Weightlifting. Our mission was to grow the sport in Houston. I feel that we have accomplished that. We opened in the summer of 2017 facing Hurricane Harvey, a couple of years later a pandemic and other challenges along the way. We persevered through all of it and now it’s time to pass the torch.
I want to thank .collina (co owner) who often goes unmentioned for his support and belief in me as a coach. This would not have been possible without him. Thank you to our wives & Sandra who have been supportive of our little experiment!

Thank you to the weightlifting community. Especially Houston club coaches and athletes. Man are y’all great. Y’all come out to our meets, drop in, support our athletes who compete out of town when we can’t be present and always show us love. To anyone who has dropped in, competed at one of our meets, bought a shirt, referred us members, volunteered or just followed our IG page, thank you.

It has been an absolute pleasure to have coached each and every member we have ever had. And to get to know them not only as athletes but as people. From the original members who literally helped us build the place to our current members who always treat the space as their own. I will miss our daily interactions. Thank you for the memories and the friendship!

Join us for our last Dia De Los Kilos Meet this Saturday! Come hit some PRs with us for one last time this year! Don’t forget your costume!
