Larissa Escamilla-Ocanas
Personal Trainer
Larissa's love for longevity and health began as a kid spending years in Tae Kwon Do, swimming, ballet and soccer. She grew up in a Navy family on Whidbey island and is familiar with tactical conditioning. While having the privilege of working with a strength coach in her early teens, she began lifting free weights over a decade ago. She now trains to compete in strongman tournaments and is prioritizing strength, mobility, neuro-muscular development and re-compositioning.
Larissa's professional background in medical, psychiatric and social work has helped develop her understanding of how one's mental health and demographics can impact their physical health (and vice versa).
With a hypermobile diagnosis, she has a deep understanding and specialization in corrective exercises. Larissa would love to work with anyone looking to improve their strength, explosive power, general body building, or anyone that may also be hypermobile! She is aspiring to ensure clients can be strong, autonomous; to live a life of the highest quality by training healthy movement patterns.
In her free time she is a gamer, D&D Gremlin, raver and foodie. If any of this resonates with you, feel free to drop by and say hello to Larissa!
