Host kit
Run Finding the Light in your community
Gyms, clubs, and groups of friends bring the workout to their community each October and raise money as a team for the Foundation Fighting Blindness. Here's how.
Create your team and set a goal
Start a team on the official Finding the Light campaign page and set a fundraising goal. Share your team's link so every donation counts toward it.
Create a team ↗Pick a day with your community
Schedule the workout and invite your members, friends, and family. Set a suggested donation for participants (usually $10–25 per person) that they give through your team page.

Sighted Guide
With a partner
- Partner A completes the workout blindfolded, guided by Partner B.
- Then switch: Partner B goes blindfolded, guided by Partner A.
Make it work for your group
- Half it: cut the reps to 10 per movement, or do fewer rounds, for a shorter class or newer athletes.
- Partner style: pair people up and split the reps however they like. Pairing with the Sighted Guide version works great.
