kiara in a tiara. 👑
stepping on stage for the very first time lit a fire in me that i didn’t know i had. i got into the gym for mental health benefits years ago, but never imagined competing. this show was not apart of the plan but last minute we decided to bring my best and use this experience and feedback to better my package. my dreams came true and i couldn’t be more excited to continue to bring better
judges feedback was to continue growing and allow my body to mature as a young athlete. we brought great shape, conditioning and confidence, but i can’t wait to come back bigger and better.
this one is truly so so special.
@yuni.inkdxo reached out to me with a show already set and secured, @nypro_ and was determined to step on stage in the Fit Model division as a lifelong goal of her own.
As if prep wasn’t already enough of a mental and physical challenge, Yuni is also a mother, full time student, ICU Nurse, managed to travel, AND still prioritized her health while maintaining that radiant smile of hers!!
This prep was incredible for me to be guiding her emotionally and physically through the highs and lows of prep. I truly could not be more proud of this woman and the determination that shines through.
I’ll never forget receiving an emotional text from Yuni after working a mentally exhausting shift at the hospital. She had told me she was able to bring a man’s heart rate back, and ultimately saved his life through compressions and even had the STRENGTH to break ribs.
This woman saved a freaking LIFE because of the strength she gained from every set, every rep, every time she pushed herself to her limits.
This is just the beginning of a new chapter in her life and I could not be more excited for what is coming.
Post show, Yuni hopped on a plane and went straight to Japan to celebrate and enjoy her time with her loved ones and I could not be more happy for her.
To my girl @yuni.inkdxo we did the damn thing. YOU did the damn thing. I can thank you enough for allowing our paths to cross in this life and allowing me to guide you to becoming the very best version of you.
Only up from here, keep watching. ❤️🔥

As we get deeper into prep, leaning out and seeing more lines and definition. Keeping my body moving efficiently and pain-free is crucial.
Lately in my posing I’ve felt stiffness and pain in my rotation, primarily on my posing side.
Today @dog.and.drdan and I worked on rotational movements, releasing tension in my back, hip flexors, and overall improved my range of motion.
@fwd.physio keeps me moving!!
Go check them out and use “KI20” for 20% off your initial assessment!!
