Always great to drop in at CHFP when I’m in town. Friendly, welcoming space with excellent equipment and attentive coaches who are watching your lifts not just your use of equipment.

Cara Slaughter is an absolute fantastic coach! Her group coaching sessions are the perfect blend of fun, encouragement, and expertise. Cara has a unique ability to create a support environment where everyone feels motivated to push themselves while still enjoying the process. Since working with her, my technique has improved significantly, and I feel more confident in my abilities. I genuinely look forward to every group session, thanks to Cara’s coaching. She’s an incredible mentor, and I can’t recommend her enough!

Anyone who wants to learn the Oly lifts should work w Cara - and if you only need a place to workout, it’s a great gym! But Cara is an incredible coach.

Fantastic weightlifting gym that is well-equiped and welcoming. This is my go-to gym to visit when I'm in the DC area. They make it very easy to drop in. One of the top weightlifting gyms on the east coast for sure.

I've been doing remote coaching with Coach Cara, and I went for in-person coaching recently. Both remote and in-person sessions are well-organized, and all athletes have the opportunity for one-on-one talks with the coach before the session begins, which is really helpful. Once everyone gets started, the coach provides attention to everyone, giving technical feedback and support for new and experienced lifters alike. I wish I could go in person more because the facility is top notch! But since I live too far for daily driving, the remote option is ideal.

Cara is the best coach! She makes learning easy.

I took an intro to weightlifting class with Lauren, and I can't say enough good things. She created an environment that was welcoming, supportive, and genuinely fun - I walked in a little nervous, and left excited to get back into the sport!!
