About me
Liliane Feitosa
Personal Trainer | Strength and Conditioning
My coaching combines strength, mobility, breathing, and athletic movement to help you move with ease, build lasting strength, gain confidence, and perform at your best in every aspect of life. Sessions offered in English and Portuguese.
It Started in Brazil
I was born and raised in Brazil, where it feels like summer all year long. Growing up surrounded by warmth and vibrant culture, I always carried a deep curiosity about the world and a desire to explore life beyond my hometown. I earned my bachelor's degree in Advertising and Marketing, but over time I realized that path didn't fully align with who I was or the life I wanted to create.
Coaching Passion Born in NYC
I moved to New York City in my twenties, and it was there that my journey as a Fitness Coach truly began. What had always been my favorite hobby since childhood slowly transformed into my life's purpose. Helping people feel stronger, healthier, and more connected to themselves brings me genuine joy.

More Than a Decade in the Fitness Industry
I started my career in 2016 as a trainer in a fitness studio in NYC, where I worked as both a group fitness instructor and private trainer. When the COVID-19 pandemic changed the world, I decided to fully dedicate myself to growing my private fitness business. Over the years, I have worked with both men and women from all kinds of fitness backgrounds. I have also helped many clients recover from injuries, rebuild strength and confidence, and learn to move pain-free again. Every client has taught me something that shapes how I coach today.

Specialized in Kettlebell Training
Movement has always been a huge part of my life. I fell in love with strength training as a teenager, and that passion has only grown stronger with time. I am especially passionate about kettlebell training because of how empowering, versatile, and effective it can be for building strength, stability, resilience, and confidence, all while keeping training engaging and enjoyable. In New York, I earned my National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) certification in 2016, and since then I have continued expanding my education through additional certifications, mentorships, and ongoing learning so I can better support my clients and their individual goals.
A New Chapter in Switzerland
New York also brought me one of the greatest gifts of my life: I met and married my wonderful French-Canadian husband. After many beautiful years living in the U.S., we recently moved to Zurich, Switzerland, where we are embracing a new chapter filled with nature, outdoor adventures, skiing, and a slower, more balanced pace of life. I'm excited to start helping people in Zurich to be the stronger and healthier version of themselves.
