VerifiedAbout Yolanda
I fell in love with exercise in my late 20’s. I was still trying to lose the excess weight I had put on from having two babies back to back, even though it had been 6 years since I’d last given birth. Eventually, I realized that I loved exercising more for the mental release I felt than anything else. I decided to start a fitness career a few years later and I also love helping others to find out how exercise can change their lives in ways that they might not be expecting.
My favorite client story
My favorite client came to me after winning a battle against anorexia. I was extremely hesitant to train her at first but she seemed to be in a good place at the time. It was wonderful to see movement help her with her depression and to help her develop a healthy relationship with food again to support her new active lifestyle.
