About Jay
It was quite a journey...
Before I started WAVE Fitness and Bodyworks (formerly known as Wellness Starts Within), I was working at a chiropractic clinic as a post-rehab trainer and therapist in 2007. I was also a personal trainer and group fitness instructor at a big box gym.
At that time in my career I knew that my husband would eventually need a double hip replacement surgery, so I started focusing on learning the science of exercise and recovery. I took Advance training in different modalities such as Medical Massage, Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Sports Massage, Kinesio Taping, Trigger Point Therapy, PNF Stretching, Hot stone and FasciAshi ROM, to aid his rehabilitation.
Friends and family started coming to me for advice, asking if I could personally train and help them get over their fear of exercising and help them facilitate their range of motion which stemmed from past injuries.
This was a breakthrough moment. I realized I needed to help more people and provide them with more than just a weight loss training program, to help them understand the reason why they are gaining weight and their health is falling apart.
My mission is therefore clear as a Coach and a Therapist: to motivate and deliver individualized results, provide quality service and create a culture of fun and support.
With the challenge of pandemic, we needed to make some modification to remain diligent. And these challenges and opportunities come with a lot of baggage to our followers like:
Join the ever growing community, and you too can ride the WAVE to a better life.
I can’t wait to be a part of your life-changing journey!

- Overwhelm
- Insecurity (financial, mental, emotional)
- Fatigue
- A sense of burden
