Join us for a BEGINNER LEVEL mountain bike clinic here in Brunswick, hosted by Empower Her! Ages 9+ are welcome.
Bring your own bike, and water.
Hello Empower HER ladies!
We are at it again. We are ready to empower you in another clinic to build on you having an experience on your mountain bike! Jenna and I are thrilled with the turn-out of so many amazing ladies making time to build confidence, take care of themselves, and empower your spirit.
Our first clinic was a test to see if our mission would connect to other women wanting to get on the bike and out in nature and it has. Both Jenna and I take the safety of all riders, ourselves, our businesses, and the certifications needed to make this a successful experience for all very seriously. For future clinics, there will be an increase in fees to cover the expenses needed to run these clinics safely. We do not want to deter women; however, we also need to protect everything mentioned above.
We thank you for your understanding and we have developed a pay scale to provide flexibility in cost to you.
Choose your rate for the Clinic goes as follows:
– $35
– $45
– $55
We thank you for supporting women in business, community, and health!
If you have any questions or need any type of financial aid, please email me at bleueggwellness@gmail.com or tx at 207-776-2967.

WILDERNESS FIRST AID:
Have you been looking for creative ways to help take care of your friends when they injure themselves during backcountry adventures? Been anxious to take a wilderness first aid class or just feel a bit rusty in your skills? Do you hate the idea of carrying a massive first aid kit but feel like you should?
Let’s brainstorm ways that you don’t have to and instead can use what’s in your pack, or on the Woods + Waters shelves, to treat your injury prone friends.
Join local LifeFlight of Maine nurse/paramedic and longtime SOLO instructor Brad Boehringer on May 29th from 5 pm to 7:30 pm to dust off those skills or rethink how you pack your pack. Bring your first aid kits and lets review what’s in there and why!
