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 and athletic shoes, and bring a water bottle. We have a water-filling station on-site. Your coach will help you get oriented and explain the workout before class begins.

Sovana shares the facility with Burrell Sports Performance. Please enter through the front door facing Seven Mile Road marked “BSP.”

Group classes require eight hours’ notice for cancellation. Private and semi-private sessions require 12 hours’ notice. Please cancel through the Sovana app.

A late cancellation or missed group class will result in the loss of that session. Semi-private clients will be charged $25 per person, and private-training clients will be charged $50. We understand that life happens, but timely communication helps us respect our coaches’ time.
