Peoplestown is where it all began—the first community where GOAT Exercise launched its fitness classes. When Founder and Co-CEO Joss Connally and Co-CEO Mark Connally started GOAT Exercise, they were introduced to the Peoplestown community by their grandmother, Loraine Johnson, the current Project Coordinator with Let’s G.A.M.E. and former fitness instructor at the site. Still in college at the time, Joss began leading the classes shortly after the introduction and quickly saw a rise in participation. Over time, residents reported meaningful improvements in strength, mobility, and their ability to perform daily activities—marking the start of GOAT Exercise’s journey to empower seniors through exercise.

“I truly enjoy GOAT Exercise, it is something we need as seniors, and they push us just the right amount.”
