MY STORY:
Katrina discovered her passion for health and fitness after battling negative body image issues and disordered eating throughout her adolescence. She was always the last one to be picked to play team sports in Phys Ed class which didn’t help her low self esteem.
In college she quickly put on the pounds from an unhealthy lifestyle of substance abuse, poor nutrition, lack of sleep, and involvement in a toxic relationship. all the while stress was at an all time high from balancing a corporate 9 to 5 working at a law office and going to school.
on top of that, she had a family history of diabetes and high blood pressure which she was predisposed to if she didn’t make a change soon…
Realization & Purpose
Thankfully, Katrina found a positive outlet through dance fitness. To her dancing was fun and didn’t feel like a workout. Little did she know this was just the beginning of her new life!
Katrina went on to try other means of exercise including strength training and body sculpting. she went so far as to compete in her first figure competition in 2013 and continued until 2015. However, she found the extreme dieting and training unsustainable. It also brought on body dysmorphia: A mental disorder in which a person is unable to stop being preoccupied about perceived flaws in their appearance that it affects normal daily life.
The lessons learned from being on both ends of the spectrum have shaped her into the coach she is today…
