About Maya

Hello, I'm Maya, a passionate road runner with over eight years of experience. Running has transformed my life, and I'm excited to support you in discovering your own strength along your fitness journey. I specialize in both short and long-distance running. I've completed multiple races, including two half marathons, and I’m currently training for my first marathon. Let me help you run injury-free and reach your personal best.

Coaching Philosophy

My coaching philosophy is centered on fostering determination and resilience, encouraging you to push your boundaries while emphasizing the importance of listening to your body. It’s about inspiring perseverance, embracing challenges, and respecting individual limits to achieve lasting progress and personal growth.
