About us
Rainbow Fit Club started in August 2024 as a very real attempt by elle to trick their self into getting outside and spending time with other people. What began as a simple weekly walk of one or two people has grown into a genuinely sweet, welcoming community of folks who are looking to meet new friends, move their bodies in low-pressure ways, and have a regular time to show up—together.
We center and prioritize LGBTQ+ folks, especially trans and gender-nonconforming people, while welcoming anyone who identifies as LGBTQ+ or loves someone who does. There are no credentials to check—if you feel aligned with that intention, you belong here.
Most weeks, we meet for an easy Saturday morning walk at Tower Grove Park. Occasionally, we try something a little different, and we hope to continue growing our opportunities to connect and move together in new ways as we head into 2026. Think hikes, yoga, "catch club," etc.
This isn’t about fitness goals, competition, or “keeping up.” It’s about showing up as you are, getting some fresh air, and spending time with people who get it.
elle is late-in-life diagnosed neurodivergent and lives with chronic health conditions (ask me, I'm happy to overshare!), and over time we’ve naturally gathered a fairly neurospicy/neurodiverse crew—so asking for what you need is welcome here.
If something would help you feel more comfortable or supported, let us know and we’ll do our best to accommodate.
Low-pressure, family-friendly, and just for fun.

Got Your (Back) To School
Lindenwood Park Place, 3460 Jamieson Ave,, Saint Louis, MO, USBluebird Society and Rainbow Fit Club are excited to invite you to be part of Got Your (Back) to School, a back-to-school carnival for LGBTQ+ young people and their families here in St. Louis.
Research continues to show that LGBTQ+ youth living in supportive, accepting communities experience significantly better mental health, lower rates of suicidal ideation, and higher overall well-being compared to those who don’t.
As students head into a new school year, we want to remind them that they've got a whole community in their corner — and that's where you come in.
The event will feature a dance party, hands-on art and craft activities, and carnival games, all hosted by local organizations, clubs, and people supporting the LGBTQ+ community.
Help spread the word, volunteer your time, and/or contribute to the event fund to expand our budget to make this a truly amazing event. Let's celebrate the LGBTQ+ youth in St. Louis and remind them that we've got their back.

Accessibility Notes: This event is held in a former church-turned-community event space. Activities will be taking place on all three floors. Only one floor is ADA compliant; the other two floors each have a staircase to get to.
On the first floor will be craft activities led by Amplify the Arch and Proud Art STL, both organizations by and for queer youth in our community.
Weather-permitting, there will also be some fun to be had in the small yard just at the entrance of the space.
