Hi, I’m Beatrice, a 50-year-old mom of five, certified fitness trainer and proud founder of BeA Warrior.
I started kickboxing 8 years ago at age 42, simply wanting to get back in shape after having my kids. That very first session changed everything. I fell in love with the training and told my children, “I was born for this.”
At the time, I couldn’t do a single sit-up or push-up. But I made a decision: I was going to build a body I could trust: strong, fast, and reliable. Not to impress or compete, but to feel powerful in my own skin.
I began training every other day for one hour, then for two. Soon I was training every day, learning more and more about kickboxing, Muay Thai, and boxing. I also discovered mau rākau, a traditional martial art of the Māori people of New Zealand. It added a deep spiritual and cultural dimension to my journey, and it became a powerful inspiration in how I train and teach.
As I transformed, people around me noticed. Friends began asking me to train them, and I realized this wasn’t just my passion, it was my path. I studied to become a certified fitness trainer, opened my own small gym, and started offering kickboxing, boxing, and personal fitness training to help others get back into shape, just like I did.
Today, I’m lucky to share both my life and my passion with my husband Sam, who loves training as much as I do. We’re training partners and life partners, pushing each other, challenging each other, and proving every day that strength is something you build together.
Whether you’re just starting out or already well into your fitness journey, my mission is the same: to help you move with power, train with purpose, and push past your limits, in body and in mind.
Join the tribe. Be A Warrior.
