Hi! I’m Cat.
I’m a StrongFirst Team Leader Elite, kettlebell coach, former gym owner, wife and adventure buddy to husband Chau, and dog mom.
In my twenties, I was a stressed out corporate drone who battled my body with hours of cardio and an unhealthy relationship with food.
Now, thanks to learning how to use kettlebells with skill, technique, and smart programming, I'm the strongest I've ever been — and I'm in my forties.
In my 9+ years of coaching, owning a gym, training, teaching, and learning from my mentors, I've taught hundreds of students and instructors how to build strength safely with kettlebells.
I believe in ditching the outdated mindset of punishing our bodies, always “going hard”, and sacrificing form — and trading it in for learning strength as a skill that we practice.
Once you make that mindset shift, it will positively impact every aspect of your life. It’s life-changing — it has been for me, and it can be for you too.
If you’re new to kettlebells and you want to learn how to use them the right way — for longevity, functional fitness, resilience, and without worrying about risk of injury — you’re in the right place.
I can't wait to work with you and help you be your strongest, healthiest self!
Testimonials
Cat helped me so much with my kettlebell clean, get-up, and snatch! She was incredibly patient with me and demonstrated what an awesome coach she is.
I was amazed at how much she could see through my phone’s camera!
Neal
As a lifting newbie, I felt safe asking questions. I knew I would be listened to, encouraged, and supported.
Cat has a sharp eye for lifting technique and gives feedback in a way that’s easy to implement.
My biggest takeaway from working with Cat is I can do hard things.
Karthika
Cat took me to a whole new level of KB performance.
I learned better breathing technique that I had never fully utilized before,
I can now clean and snatch with no wrist pain,
and I’m planning on training barefoot more often to gain better mind/foot control.
From start to finish I enjoyed learning and practicing with her.
Taylor
Training kettlebells with Cat is challenging, enjoyable, and it makes me feel powerful.
Cat is excellent at finding areas of improvement and pushing you to do better with every rep.
I’ve learned so much about how to build strength safely.
Jessica
The movement compensations I had been making evaporated thanks to Cat’s coaching.
One of my favorite things about Cat is her attention to the small details of a lift. She was always able to find new ways for me to improve my technique.
Nate
Cat’s small group virtual coaching program was excellent. I loved the detailed coaching and feedback.
I can't believe I started doing get-ups three years ago with an 8kg bell, and now I can do them with a 24kg!
