Our Mission

Capital of Texas Team Survivor (CTTS, or just Team Survivor) inspires women mentally and physically to regain normal lives during and after cancer treatment. Our programs are free and open to female identifying and nonbinary cancer survivors from all walks of life.

Capital of Texas Team Survivor (CTTS) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to helping women cancer survivors build a sense of power and accomplishment as they recover from their cancer experience. CTTS offers free educational exercise programs for women of all fitness levels in every stage of cancer treatment and recovery. These inspirational programs allow women to regain control of their bodies, their health, and their lives.

Capital of Texas Team Survivor (CTTS) was formed in 1995 by four brave women who jumped out of their water exercise class into a full triathlon. Over the years several hundred women have participated in our programs. Today, CTTS is comprised of a group of women who have experienced a cancer diagnosis and support each other through exercise and wellness activities.

All women who have had cancer, whether still in treatment or a 20 year survivor, are encouraged to join the team. Athletic ability is not required. CTTS is coached by a wonderful mix of certified personal trainers and volunteer coaches, all of whom are focused on helping women cancer survivors make exercise a part of their everyday lives. They recognize that everyone has their own pace, and work with participants at that pace as they move through the program.

Exercise has many benefits for everyone, but for women who have faced a cancer diagnosis, exercising can provide an immeasurable amount of accomplishment, pride, and vigor. Come join us and be on our team today!
