Amplify Studio

The studio values, vision & vibe are the same, but I have a new mission

Story time⬇️

5 years ago, I founded Amplify studio, rebelling against the fitness standards of "No pain, no gain, sweat til you drop, push push push"

🥵 just thinking about those excessive mantras make me want to collapse

At that time, I had a spinal injury I got from a car accident earlier that year, that had left me suffering for months almost bed ridden

I could only walk or sit after I pop a pill or getting wine to cope with the excruciating pain and the doctors I saw condemned me to that pain for life...

Rebelling & refusing to accept this as my reality

I "listened to my body" which led me to naturally self-heal thru movement

So I became a fitness coach to help other women trust, care & honor their bodies which would have ripple effects on their mental + emotional health

And because "Listen to your body" mantra changed my life, it became a philosophy I built my studio on & set trend to

This trend caught wildfire & became the "new norm" in fitness

‼️Now 5 years later

Something disturbs me about the "Listen to your body" dialogue

What I initially started thru my embodied philosophy to EMPOWER women to take their health in their hands

Has now been diluted to a message of disempowerment

Here's how:

"Listen to you body" has become the excuse to excuses 🤦‍♀️😪

"My body feels heavy, so I'll pass"
"It's uncomfortable, so my body says no"

And while I will NEVER agree with using FORCE, GUILT, SHAME, I also don't align with bypassing

Yes "Listening to my body" changed my life

No scrap that - it gave me my life back

BUT❗️

It was not by "I feel something on the surface so I obey to listen to my body to justify blocks"

Because If I had done it that way, meaning I had just "listened to my body" that only experienced pain at that time, I'd still be bedridden today 🤷‍♀️

"Listen to your body" is about knowing how to REALLY LISTEN & deeply understand to honor your body for transformation

That's the nuance, the uncomfortable truth

That's the true empowerment thru your body

That's my new mission
