About Chatoya...
My passion with fitness started with my own journey. I hit rock bottom regarding my weight and being unhappy with the way I looked. I decided to start running/walking outside. I eventually joined a gym, but was intimidated with the weight section, so I just did Zumba. One day, someone shared a fitness video of a popular class here in Louisville and I got the courage to attend by myself. I was hooked and plus I lost the weight.
I then started personal training to shape my body the way I wanted. I fell in love with weights and decided I want to pass this feeling to other women. I eventually became certified and in the meantime also started my legs and glutes class, Kiss My Derrière (KMD).
Recently, I discovered that I have Hashimotos and an underactive thyroid along with being in perimenopause! I am having to rediscover how to nourish and take care of my body in this new stage of life.
Let’s continue to break these generational curses and stereotypes. Come train and feel better with me.
