Beauty Beyond Strength is back in 2026 for it's 11th year!
BBS is an all ladies functional fitness event.
Beauty Beyond Strength is more than a competition.
It’s a celebration!
Of women in fitness, of showing up, moving, and lifting each other higher.
From first-time competitors to seasoned athletes, from mums rebuilding their confidence to daughters watching on the sideline — every story belongs here.
Created in the Bay of Plenty and returning for its 11th year, Beauty Beyond Strength is about connection, courage, and community.
It’s about carving out a moment for yourself, and sharing it with women who know what it means to be in it together.
