Movement has always been my way of life. From my early roots in dance to now leading group classes and personal training sessions, I’ve seen firsthand how fitness transforms not just your muscles, but your confidence, energy, and spirit. My Work Today • At DawnsHere, I teach a variety of group classes from Move Your Hips dance-based cardio, to weightlifting, primal flow, and HIIT. These classes are where I get to blend fun with challenge, showing people that movement can feel empowering and joyful. • I trained under Teri Almquist and deepened my practice of Bikram Hot Yoga through her mentorship at Wellness Hot Yoga and in her Costa Rica retreat. That experience helped me understand the body in new ways: meditation, breath, and presence, and it continues to shape the way I coach. • I’m also part of the YMCA personal training team, where I work with a diverse community: teaching Fit for Life for active older adults, coaching young athletes, leading bootcamps, running strength classes, teaching children’s Zumba, and supporting members one-on-one in personal training. Why I Coach I’ve been where many of my clients start feeling unsure, craving change, and needing guidance. What I’ve learned is that fitness isn’t about perfection; it’s about showing up for yourself consistently and building habits that carry into every part of your life. Whether it’s through a barbell, a yoga mat, or a dance floor, my mission is to help you feel strong, balanced, and connected to your body. https://www.iliamariacoaching.com/coachingservices daily 0.75 2025-10-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6167752ee79fc4508ce71e43/1644515040970-6VRVWDS8X67WDONA8KU7/Untitled+design-5.png Coaching https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6167752ee79fc4508ce71e43/1644515501370-EU8CRW8EPKPOTTFFV36Q/Untitled+design-9.png Coaching https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6167752ee79fc4508ce71e43/1644516139512-K4XKALNNUYX59IPFGZMZ/Untitled+design-11.png Coaching https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6167752ee79fc4508ce71e43/74931af6-45d2-4d62-9f03-5603cd14f1f3/IliaDHDec1822-51_Original.jpg Coaching https://www.iliamariacoaching.com/contact-1 daily 0.75 2025-10-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6167752ee79fc4508ce71e43/1635523070602-3ZHX7D5CDBC4HVYLKHFC/282C40F7-FDBB-41AF-AB1B-2118064037A7.jpeg Contact Me - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.iliamariacoaching.com/7-day-free daily 0.75 2025-10-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6167752ee79fc4508ce71e43/709bad4e-428f-4b14-a8fe-d824cc866a84/IMG_3537.jpeg 7 Day Free - Are you ready for taking that step forward to reclaiming your STRENGTH.
