Join host Maggie as she welcomes Damali Fraiser, a size-inclusive and trauma-informed kettlebell coach from Brampton, Ontario. In this inspiring conversation, Coach Damali shares her unexpected journey from engineering to martial arts, and ultimately to becoming the founder of Liftoff Strength and Wellness and Coaches Corner-the first inclusive kettlebell certification program. Learn how her experience in Muay Thai led her to discover the power of kettlebell training, and hear her passionate approach to making fitness spaces more accessible through trauma-informed, size-inclusive, and anti-oppressive coaching methods. Damali discusses the importance of understanding that bodies are inherently political, the value of letting students be the experts of their own bodies, and her mission to create inclusive communities in both martial arts and kettlebell training. Whether you're a fitness professional or someone interested in inclusive movement practices, this episode offers valuable insights into making fitness more accessible for all bodies.
