What is Temple of Her
A calmer, stronger way to train
This is a place to build strength, improve energy, learn how to train with more confidence, and create a more grounded relationship with fitness. Whether you are brand new to weightlifting or simply ready for a better environment, Temple of Her offers a more personal and intentional way to begin.
Located in Ford City, PA, Temple of Her serves women looking for a local gym that feels safe, supportive, and easier to walk into.

So just know I’m always here to help or answer any questions!”

Temple of Her offers a more intentional place to work on:
strength and muscle tone
energy and daily function
confidence with weightlifting
consistency and structure
long-term health and longevity
a calmer relationship with fitness

Temple of Her is not trying to be everything for everyone. It is intentionally designed to serve women who want a safer, more respectful, more approachable way to train.
Temple of Her was created by Devon Kupchella, whose vision for a women-focused fitness space has been years in the making.
Devon is a 2014 graduate of Indiana University of Pennsylvania with a major in Exercise Physiology and a minor in Nutrition. Her long-term interest in the human body later led her into massage therapy, while she continued creating workout programs and deepening her understanding of how women can feel more supported in fitness spaces.
Temple of Her brings those interests together in one clear mission: to create a safe and comfortable space where women can become stronger, feel more confident, and work toward their health goals in a way that feels grounded and sustainable.
