Her dedication to continuous improvement led her to achieve her elite certifications and actively engage in innovative workshops like Animal Flow to stay at the cutting edge of fitness trends.
Salwa’s science-based philosophy focuses on helping clients reach their fitness goals while cultivating a vibrant and fulfilling lifestyle. Her commitment to ensuring her clients move well, age gracefully, and live joyfully is at the heart of her coaching approach.
