In Lizde’s words

My name is Lizde, and I have a vision for my future: to become a strong, independent, and healthy older woman. So I often ask myself: What am I doing today to become that woman?

After the birth of my second child, I gained significant weight and found myself caught in unhealthy eating patterns and a sedentary lifestyle. Eventually, I made the decision to change. I began exercising at home, pursuing professional coaching training, and engaging in personal therapy. Together, these three experiences became powerful tools for personal growth and transformation during a pivotal stage of my life.

During the pandemic, I continued exercising and began sharing my daily routines, along with my physical and emotional progress. I invited others to join me, rediscovered my love for dance, and returned to jazz, a passion I had explored through jazz and ballet during my childhood and teenage years. I also created opportunities to share the beauty of Mexican folkloric dance.

Over time, I began combining movement and dance to create routines for older adults. That was when I discovered something truly meaningful: I could bring together two of my greatest passions—fitness and dance—while helping others move, connect, and feel good in their bodies.

And that is how LizdeFit was born: a combination of my passions and my desire to inspire, motivate, and empower others to make movement a joyful part of their lives.

For me, wellness is about more than how we look or how much we can do. It is about building strength, nurturing our emotional well-being, and creating habits that support us throughout every stage of life. Every small step we take today is an investment in the healthier, stronger, and more independent person we hope to become tomorrow.
