Meet Coach Kavita
Kavita is our OG coach and a true all-rounder—an incredible weightlifter, gymnast, and athlete. After becoming a mom to twin boys earlier this year, she’s already back and proving her strength as both an athlete and a coach. Known for her technical expertise, great banter, love of disco music, and appreciation for a good nap, Kavita brings energy and precision to every session. Oh, and don’t let her size fool you—she’s also an MMA fighter and could absolutely kick your ass.
