OUR PROGRAMS
At Shoofly, we run four programs under one roof.

Different disciplines, the same team
​
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Strength and precision are the foundation of elite performance.
​
We train as a team, supporting every member. Whether you're grabbing a barbell or lacing up gloves for the first time, or you're a seasoned competitor, we're all on different path
​
​
Built on Squat, Bench, and Deadlift for athletes chasing raw strength and power. Training follows a powerlifting-style approach to programming and technique, with a focus on progressive overload and hitting new maxes safely. Whether you're new to barbell training or already chasing bigger numbers, this program builds the strength foundation everything else is built on.
Built for the next generation of athletes. We develop power, strength, and explosiveness through age-appropriate coaching, giving young athletes real exposure to the lifts and movements they'll see at the next level. It's where athletic foundations get built early, so the transition to competitive sport feels natural instead of overwhelming.
COACH STREET
Amanda Street grew up in southern West Virginia, where her father, a standout boxer and multi-sport athlete, taught her to box, pass, catch, and tackle. She played basketball at Shepherd University before moving to Raleigh for grad school, where she picked up rugby and was recruited to the U.S. Women's National Rugby Team, competing internationally for four years. After interning at the U.S. Olympic Training Center and coaching strength at UNC-Chapel Hill, she retired from rugby in 2014 and opened her first gym.
