✨ Announcing Our First Round of
TIWL Biz Accelerator Graduates ✨

Are you looking to work with a Trauma Informed Weight Lifting Practitioner? Have you wanted to recommend someone to a friend or colleague? We have just the people for you! 

We’re proud to introduce the inaugural graduates of the TIWL Business Accelerator. These Certified Trauma Informed Weight Lifting practitioners have spent the last four weeks designing and building online program models that allow them to work with clients from anywhere in the world. Through focused program development, streamlined systems, and intentional refinement of their areas of impact, each graduate has created an offering rooted in nervous system support, body connection, and sustainable strength.

Their work reflects the heart of trauma informed practice: movement and resistance training that prioritizes safety, autonomy, and trust. If you’re looking to work with a trainer or movement coach online, follow these amazing graduates, share their work, and book a call to learn more! We’re honored to support these practitioners as they expand their reach and continue shaping the future of trauma informed movement.
