About Alma 

Alma is passionate about women’s health, fertility, pregnancy, and motherhood. She has guided many women through these life transitions and continues to empower a positive shift from one stage to the next. 

Alma spent a decade working as a birth and postpartum doula in her community. There she saw a need for trainers offering safe and effective ways to train women that want to retain strength for the duration of pregnancy and aid postpartum recovery. She decided to get certified as a strength coach and dove into multiple prenatal and postpartum certification programs seeking to combine the best methods for her clients. That’s when Shift Well was born. 

“Motherhood is an athletic event & women should train like athletes for it.”

Alma incorporates kettlebell style training principles with functional training methods to create effective programming for her personal training clients and small group training programs. She believes that motherhood is an athletic event and that women should train like athletes for it.
