ABOUT
LIFT WITH JOY
At the beginning of my fitness journey, I made numerous mistakes that were all too common based on what I saw online. It became clear to me that fitness should be about more than just superficial goals; it should encompass true health and well-being. Recognizing this, I knew I had to make a change.
​
I firmly believe that working out goes beyond mere aesthetics or achieving a specific number on a scale. Since I began my own fitness journey in 2014, I have experienced profound growth in all aspects of my being—mentally, physically, and spiritually. As a result, I am committed to teaching clients how to create a sustainable and balanced lifestyle that extends far beyond temporary fixes.
​
As a certified personal trainer, my purpose is to equip my clients and community with the necessary tools to thrive in their fitness and health journeys. My goal is to provide you with knowledge and resources that will stay with you for life, enabling you to live your healthiest and happiest lifestyle.
Through Lift With Joy, I want to to shine a light onto others and guide them toward reaching their own goals. I want my clients to feel transformed mentally, physically, and spiritually while feeling more confident both inside and outside the gym.
ABOUT JOY
My name is Joy, and I am fortunate to call the beautiful island of Oahu in Hawaii my home. Over the past decade, I have embarked on an extraordinary fitness journey that has taken me to incredible heights. From competing in numerous USAPL powerlifting competitions to participating in partner Crossfit events, I have immersed myself in various training styles, including HIIT, bodybuilding, conditioning, yoga, and Olympic lifting. I am driven by a desire to become a well-rounded athlete, constantly expanding my knowledge within the realm of wellness.
When I am not engaged in workouts or training clients, I cherish spending quality time with my little family. My husband and I love taking our two furry children, Kino and Mochi, on adventures, whether it's exploring scenic hikes, enjoying the beach, or finding dog-friendly eateries. Despite being a personal trainer, I am an unabashed foodie and relish indulging in a delightful Sunday brunch. Life is a beautiful balance of fitness, family, and savoring the joys of good food.
