about the founder
This brand was born from the challenges that have come from navigating wellness with endometriosis -- and from a simple truth: I got tired of wellness being sold like a trend. Tired of women being told they’re not good enough on Instagram, or chase an aesthetic that had nothing to do with their actual lives or values.
I’ve been coaching women for nearly a decade, and the most powerful transformations I’ve witnessed came from honoring where you’re at, moving with intention, and building a body that is meant to last—on your best days, and through your worst ones, too.
I built Body Is A Sport as a place where strength and real life can coexist. Where your training supports your life—not overtakes it. Where we skip the fake sh*t and ground in the basics.
Whether you’re here to rebuild your routine, manage your energy, age on your own terms, or just feel strong again—I'm so glad you're here.
