Why Organically Grown Muscle? My path to fitness has been a journey full of powerful lessons, pain, and growth. I lost my mom to a battle with lung cancer when she was just 42 years old. A few years later, my younger brother, 15, passed away when his stepmother mixed up his ADHD medications with other medications. I also spent much of my childhood on various medications. Today I live medication-free and healthier than ever before. The pain of losing family fostered in me a passion for natural health and wellness. Above all, I hope to spend my life helping those in my Tacoma community achieve healthy, fulfilling lives through organic fitness. This is why I do what I do.
My mission is to help people with their anxiety, depression, and mental health through fitness. Fitness has been shown to be extremely effective at building confidence, self esteem, overall health, and other parts of your life.
There is a plethora of research which shows a strong correlation between physical fitness and improvements in anxiety, depression, and ADHD. Some have gone as far as to call exercise nature’s miracle drug. The benefits of exercise stem from longevity, to mental health, to improved quality of life, and lowered risk of various disease. I firmly believe that there is very little that can do more for one’s lifelong well-being than embracing physical fitness.
I believe that your body is its own best medicine. That is why I do not use, sell, or promote supplements for weight gain or weight loss. You can give your body all the nutrients it needs to grow in strength through diet and exercise. Today, I am a vegan, supplement-free, strong fitness instructor. I take great joy in working with people of all ages, the young and elderly included, achieve their goals.
