Sports Illustrated and Empower Onyx are putting the spotlight on the diverse journeys of Black women across sports—from the veteran athletes, to up-and-coming stars, coaches, executives and more—in the series, Elle-evate: 100 Influential Black Women in Sports.
Angela Manuel Davis, the motivational fitness coach, founder of Angela’s AARMY, isn’t just a good spin coach, she is great. Her AARMY classes are often wait-listed, not because she can make promises of toning your abs or losing 10 pounds in 10 days, but because she can tighten, lift and strengthen your inner self. Davis chooses to strengthen minds, not only bodies, inspiring her AARMY of students to live their best lives.
