I'm Oscar, a passionate personal trainer and yoga instructor.
I’m on a mission to redefine what's possible, not just for myself but for others, by navigating the challenging journey of inflammatory arthritis.
In 2023, at the age of 31, I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis, a diagnosis that came with uncertainty and questions about how it would shape my life and career.
As a fitness enthusiast, the news hit hard, challenging my very identity. As someone who thrived on movement and well-being, I’d always prided myself on being a fit and strong individual who was ready for action. The pain I was experiencing was making even the most basic of tasks a challenge.
But in the midst of the pain and adjustments, I discovered a newfound strength — not physical, but an unwavering resilience, that goes beyond the limits of joints and muscles. It's a strength born out of embracing the challenge, adapting to change and finding purpose in the face of adversity.
As I navigate my personal journey with psoriatic arthritis, I've found, what at first seemed like the biggest challenge of my life, has given me a determination and inspiration to help others with the same challenges.
Having arthritis may not make life easy, but you don’t have to allow it to stop living your best life. You can still cultivate strength and wellbeing.
Join me and together we can navigate the realms of fitness and well-being with grace and courage. Working towards a profound understanding that every step, every rep, every stretch, and every breath is a victory.
I am dedicating myself to supporting individuals with inflammatory arthritis. My goal is to share not just my expertise as a certified personal trainer and yoga instructor, but also empathy, patience and understanding that comes from walking a similar path. Until you’ve experienced it it’s difficult to comprehend the test life has given you. I believe in the power of movement to transcend physical limitations, fostering a sense of empowerment and connection. Together, let's redefine fitness, acknowledging that it's not just about breaking a sweat but doing what you can to embrace life to its fullest.
