As Christine so aptly put it: What a powerhouse! Our conversation with Damali Fraiser was vulnerable, open and incredibly interesting.
We talked about:
- how to navigate body changes as we age and as we adapt to hormonal changes and injury
- Damali's journey of recovering from her hysterectomy
- how to coach with a trauma informed and inclusive ethos
- the importance of dismantling hierarchies (in movement and in general!)
- why she found herself drawn to kettlebell training
- the benefits of strength training and that it doesn't have to look the same for everyone
- her incredible coaching course for fitness instructors (see more information below)
- what a snatch is!! (Ela was clueless but is now totally in the know - listen to find out!)
