Leah Gallear-Ouimet (she/they)

Leah is a Trauma-Informed Weight Lifting Practitioner, NASM Certified Personal Trainer, and a CrossFit Level One Trainer. Leah takes a movement-centered approach to healing trauma in our bodies and encourages people to stay curious about the sensations, thoughts, and memories that come up as they move and lift. 

They want to rethink what going to the gym can look and feel like. Instead of it being a space that causes shame, harm, and judgment, what if it could be the safest, most playful space you bring your whole self to? 

Leah will meet you where you’re at in your fitness journey. You don’t have to know where you’re headed to start. You can be nervous, struggling with even finding the motivation to begin, struggling to love and appreciate your body as it is. Come as you are. We’ll talk about what feels good and what doesn’t and begin to see how movement can bring healing and empowerment. 

Leah finds weightlifting and moving their body to be one of the best parts of their day and they are excited to help you discover the joy and release in it too. 

Leah sees clients virtually or in-person in Richmond, VA.
