Experience with fitness:

When I was a little girl, I discovered a passion for sports, especially soccer. After a couple of years decided to try something new and become a Polynesian Dancer. While I was mastering this beautiful dance, I made a personal goal of starting my own dance studio. With lots of big sacrifices and extra hard work, I was able to accomplish my goal (I was only 19 years old). Unfortunately, 4 years later after the opening of my dance studio, I had to take one of the hardest decisions of my life and close the doors forever. The decision was not easy, but it was the best decision for me at the moment since I became a single mom and needed to take care of my baby. A couple of years later I found myself struggling with self-confidence and stress, so I decided to explore something new and that is when I found weightlifting. In such short time weightlifting become my therapist and stress relief. I started feeling stronger/happier than ever, so I took the decision of becoming a personal trainer to help and inspired the people around me.

One thing you would want your clients to know:

My goal as a passionate fitness trainer is to support my clients on each fitness/personal goal they would like to accomplish. By not only showing them the correct way to exercise but educating them along the way so they can have a better understanding of their body and what they are capable of.

Training Style: My training style aligns most closely with bodybuilding. My focus is on building mass and strength while following a push, pull, legs spilt. For cardio I enjoy doing interval training which involves short bursts of high intensity work paired with slow steady rate work.

Experience with fitness: I have played soccer since the age of 5. I played for the Sounders Academy in high-school and then played division 1 soccer at Elon University for my freshman and sophomore year of college. I began to seriously lift once a got to college and gradually became more interested in bodybuilding. I have been fully focused on bodybuilding for the last couple years.

One thing you would want clients to know: Something that I am very good at doing is finding the happy medium between pushing my clients to their limits while still making it an enjoyable experience. By making exercise fun but still challenging I hope to motivate clients to continue to take the next steps towards their goals by taking incremental steps on a daily basis.

Certificates and Education:

• NASM Certified Personal Trainer

• NASM Certified Sports Nutrition Coach

• CPR/AED Certified

Training Style: My training style is mostly centered around bodybuilding, powerlifting, and functional training. I focus on nutrition and a style of training that helps my client best, whether that's supersets and cutting fat, or muscular hypertrophy and building muscle. I can build a plan and substitute exercises to work around injuries on the fly.

Experience with fitness: I have been into fitness for over 18 years, starting when I was a teenager. I have a lot of experience helping people lose weight and with people just getting started learning proper form and building muscle.

One thing you would want clients to know: I love to talk about training styles and nutrition whenever I get the chance. I stay focused on being in top shape myself year round, as well as, keeping clients motivated and shifting their programs constantly to align with their goals and keep the workouts fresh.

Certificates and Education: I have a NASM CPT, CPR/AED Cert. I'm working on a Precision Nutrition Cert and NASM Injury Prevention Cert.

Training Style: My training style stems from powerlifting and has evolved into a mix of functional movement and olympic weightlifting. My goal is to help you gain strength while also developing confidence over and under a barbell, while increasing mobility and joint stability as well. For interval training I largely enjoy plyometrics where as much force is generated in as short of a time as possible.

Experience with fitness: Growing up, I ran cross country throughout my K-12 education and eventually advanced to half marathons. I spent as much time as possible dancing swing and house as well, enjoying the energy and physicality of it. I began lifting weights in college and quickly turned my attention to powerlifting, it being the quickest way I could surmise to reach maximum, full body strength. While training at a barbell specific facility I quickly grew to admire the flexibilty and strength displayed by olympic weightlifters, and decided to make the switch in order engage in what I still believe is one of the most difficult, but rewarding styles of athletic training in the world. For me, the gym has always been a place where I could improve my body and temporarily cast aside the turmoils of life and hope that I can help others find the same peace and results I have.

One thing you would want clients to know: I wholeheartedly want to provide my clients with as much support in building their own exercise autonomy as possible. Balancing proper form, desired exertion, nutrition, and programming among other aspects of fitness can be daunting, however, when an approachable yet challenging routine is established the journey to results is enjoyable and rewarding. Working out shouldn't be a slog and who knows, you might even surprise yourself with a shift in goals along the way.

This not only developed my body, but my grades and life choices significantly began to improve as well. I realized this was my passion and obsessively started to educate myself on nutrition and exercise for the last 9 years.

Experience with fitness: Fitness has always been a central part of my life. Growing up in Hawaii, I was surrounded by an active environment that fostered my love for physical activity. From bodysurfing to soccer, I engaged in various sports from a young age. As I entered my formative years, I delved into weightlifting and strength training, starting with calisthenics and gradually advancing to loaded compound lifts. My passion for fitness runs deep, stemming from my mother's influence as a competitive bodybuilder in the bikini division. Her dedication inspired me to pursue a career in personal training and share my knowledge and experience with others. Now based in Seattle, I continue to live an active lifestyle outside of the gym. You'll often find me rock climbing, practicing Jiu Jitsu/Muay Thai, or exploring nature through hiking. These activities not only keep me physically fit but also allow me to connect with the surrounding environment and embrace the beauty of the Pacific Northwest.

One thing you would want clients to know: Training with me goes beyond just physical fitness. I aim to provide my clients with the tools and skills necessary to succeed not only in the gym but also outside of it. Education is a priority, as I believe understanding the "why" behind each exercise is crucial for long-term success. Functional training is emphasized to enhance overall functionality and performance in daily life. Together, we'll focus on movements and exercises with practical applications beyond the gym. Mental well-being and personal growth are equally important, as training sessions become a platform for building confidence, resilience, and discipline. I aim to empower clients to embrace a healthy and balanced lifestyle, where fitness becomes an integral part of overall well-being.

I have worked as a strength and conditioning coach for the past 6 years, primarily at the collegiate level.

One thing you would want clients to know: I want clients to enjoy their training experience to the fullest. I want them to learn about training, and their bodies, and explore new challenges.

I specialize in bodybuilding and powerlifting, and always incorporate mobility work because it’s crucial for optimal training and preventing injuries. I also like to include some HIIT and circuit workouts to improve cardiovascular endurance. 

Experience with fitness: I am proud to say that I am a dramatic weight loss success story! I joined the gym with about 100lbs to lose, and did just that! Eventually, I started lifting weights and that is how fitness went from something I knew I needed to prioritize for my health, to something I am genuinely passionate about. I always say that weight loss got me into the gym, but lifting keeps me in the gym. I love the art of bodybuilding and the concept of building a body I love living in. I also enjoy powerlifting because it is a great fusion of strength and technique. 

One thing you would want clients to know: I am not someone who has been “fit” or athletic for my entire life. I know exactly what it’s like to start or re-start in fitness feeling like odds are stacked against you… But I also know what it’s like to show up day after day and gradually see all the amazing ways your hard work is paying off. I now love to be the trainer who makes fitness enjoyable and approachable. I believe in the power of consistency and striving to become 1% better each day because I have seen it in my own life. Personal trainers aren’t just here to improve a client’s physique, we are here to improve people’s quality of life and to push them to realize their full potential. Being able to play a part in someone’s transformation is a privilege I never take for granted.

Training Style: Powerlifting, Olympic lifting, sports performance, and functional movement/mobility make up the core of my programming.

Experience with fitness: I was a late bloomer when it came to fitness and sports. I was a particularly skinny kid and just assumed that would always be the case. Even throughout my term in the military, I never put on any real weight and leaned only on cardiovascular activity as a means of exercise - which I have never been enthusiastic about. I was fortunate enough to be introduced to powerlifting by someone with a similar background to mine, and immediately took to it. A few short years and a whole lot of reps later, I looked and felt like an entirely different person. On a whim, I started playing a sport called Roller Derby. The combination of the two changed my life and my self image in ways I never thought possible. Over the years I’ve traveled to England, Wales, Chile, Argentina, Canada, and all across the US - all in the name of this ridiculous sport that I’ve dedicated so much of myself to. My goal is simple - I want to be the one to inspire others to take that step and build something in themselves that they can be proud of.

One thing you would want clients to know: I absolutely love dispelling the myths of weightlifting. I strongly believe it’s beneficial to just about anyone of any age, gender identity, or background.

My yoga background also allows me to incorporate postures and flows into dynamic stretching and active resting.

Experience with fitness: I’ve always been athletic, doing multiple sports all through my academic career, and I fell in love with weightlifting about 3 years ago. Outside of the gym, I teach yoga and dance as well as I am a big hiker.

One thing you would want clients to know: My approach to training is always encouraging a challenge (the mind quits before the body does in weightlifting) but still honoring the body’s ques and knowing when to rest or take it easy. Sustainability leads to progress better than “perfection” will.

Certificates and Education:

Training Style: My pillars of training are bodybuilding, powerlifting, functional fitness, and Crossfit inspired circuit work.

Experience with Fitness: Throughout my childhood I was always involved in sports. Despite this, I was always the skinniest kid in the room and as a result I never felt happy about my body image. However, after discovering resistance training at 14, I became fascinated with the process of becoming stronger and changing my body for the better. Since then, I’ve enjoyed transforming my body into something that I can be proud of while also learning the ins and outs of training. I hope to bring the same enjoyment and fascination of transforming your body to all my clients.

One thing you want clients to know: Adversity is a part of everyday life but perseverance and enjoying the process is what truly makes one successful.

My focus is on guiding you to boost strength, develop solid muscle, and maintain an athletic prowess for a well-rounded result that is suitable for everyone. Your winnings or progress should ever be limited.

Experience with Fitness: I was always on the heavier side growing up, and developed habits that always kept me in a recurring cycle of obesity. As a result, my confidence was always lacking in all aspects of my life. My saving grace leading up to my transformation originated from wrestling. Through this, was I able to establish a foundation that ultimately changed my life forever. However, I never cared to be selfish with the things I learned, and instead has a desire to share my knowledge and insight with those that share the same goal of having some sort of transformation, but also getting better today. I started Personal Training once I attended college back in 2016 and have always enjoyed being along for the ride in someone’s journey. Whether that’s sculpting the body that you envision, or just improving one’s quality of life.

One thing you want clients to know: An ideology that was bestowed upon that I instill in all my client is that training should consist of hard work, but should never be hard work.
