Specializations
* Personal Trainer
I received my certification as a personal trainer from the International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA) in 2022. I believe that wellness involves more than physical fitness and encompasses all dimensions of wellness.
As a certified personal trainer, I use active listening to understand my clients' needs, goals, and values. I show genuine care and understanding by incorporating empathy and compassion in my approach. My motivational skills help me to encourage clients both physically and spiritually. I tailor workouts and provide nutrition advice to each client based on their needs and beliefs, inspired by biblical principles. This helps my clients find harmony in their faith, fitness, and daily life.
I maintain high ethical standards in my interactions with clients and respect their privacy. To stay updated, I attend workshops and complete continuing education courses. Being a personal trainer grounded in faith not only assists my clients with their wellness but also deepens my faith and strengthens my relationship with God.
* Health & Wellness Coach
I received my health and wellness coaching certification from American Council on Exercise (ACE) in 2024. As a wellness coach, I am grounded in faith and combine spiritual beliefs with a comprehensive approach to well-being. My trust in God and His principles guide my coaching. I use biblical wisdom to address all dimensions of wellness and recognize that holistic wellness involves all aspects of a person's life. I help my clients recognize their strengths, encourage them to apply their strengths to their journey, and align their faith with their goals. I actively listen to them, show genuine care for their struggles, decisions, and aspirations, and through positivity and mindfulness, build hope and encourage gratitude. We reinforce their faith by celebrating every victory. My role as a health and wellness coach extends far beyond physical health and encompasses emotional, intellectual, spiritual, occupational, and social wellness as well.
* Fitness Specialist
I obtained my fitness professional certification from American Council on Exercise (ACE) in 2023, as well as my Zumba instructor certification from Zumba Inc. in 2022. As someone who prioritizes their faith, I view physical wellness as a part of my duty to care for my body as an act of worship and stewardship responsibility.
In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, it is written, "Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your bodies." This verse reminds us that taking care of our bodies is essential as we are entrusted with them by God.
I approach being a fitness professional as an opportunity to serve others and honor God. My wellness journey enables me to help others by infusing biblical principles and God's wisdom into my fitness routines, classes, and dances. During these moments, I connect with God, and it is a beautiful way to worship and serve Him.
