Inclusive Fitness for LGBTQI+ Strength and Wellness

I’m Citlali or Lali, founder of Fuerte y Fierce, a unique space offering inclusive fitness and wellness specifically tailored to the LGBTQI+ community. As a queer Latina and experienced personal trainer, I understand the importance of an empowering, safe, and affirming environment in achieving fitness goals. My mission is to provide LGBTQI+ individuals and allies with accessible fitness services that promote strength, confidence, and self-love.

Fuerte y Fierce goes beyond standard fitness programs. We offer specialized services like gender-affirming training, body-positive workouts, and custom wellness plans that consider each person’s unique journey. I believe fitness is for everyone, no matter their background or experience level, so I create personalized plans that meet clients where they are and help them thrive. With options like beginner-friendly routines, strength training, weight management, and support for mental well-being, our programs are designed with inclusivity and accessibility at the forefront.

Each session at Fuerte y Fierce is more than a workout; it’s an opportunity to be part of a supportive community focused on personal empowerment and holistic wellness. Here, clients can embrace their authentic selves and build resilience, with routines that celebrate every milestone in a journey toward strength, wellness, and self-confidence.

Join Fuerte y Fierce and discover how inclusive fitness can be a powerful tool for transformation. With me, Citlali, by your side, you’ll be encouraged every step of the way, from achieving your goals to embracing the wellness journey that honors all of who you are.
