Today we’d like to introduce you to Joyclyn Dow.
Hi Joyclyn, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
After becoming an elementary P.E Coach, I realized how important movement was to me. It was already something I’d been including in my life since a kid doing Tae Bo but i knew I needed to move on what I felt. After having a couple of mentors and growing my business, Covid hit and I saw an opportunity for Mobile Training. Not as many people enjoy being in a gym and it was interesting to see how many people needed a trainer to come to them. I made it my mission to grow the confidence of people of all levels in fitness. It’s been my pleasure to being movement and fitness to people all over Houston.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Not the smoothest at all but I call it adding a bit of flavor to the journey. I was forced into mobile training during Covid because the gyms were shut down. It’s been one of the most invigorating experiences to be apart of. I’ve asked for clarity and guidance because I don’t see many trainers moving in the ways I have but it’s made this time personal and fulfilling. I don’t think creating something new is meant to be smooth. I believe it’s about gaining perspective and finding grace to allow things to fall into place the way that it should. I know my vision will come to pass. That’s what makes even the toughest moments worth it!
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
iSweat Fitness is a mobile training business that’s been providing movement to all ages and levels for 7 years now. I take pride in being able to train a 30 year old who’s never been into fitness and wants to take back their lives, to 90+ year old woman who understands movement is keeping her alive. My training makes every one feel capable of not only fitness, but movement throughout their daily lives. I love the community I’ve built and the free group classes I’ve been conducting the past two years at Emancipation Park. I take pride in assisting women in loosing 70+lbs and I’m even more proud to assist my mother in loosing the 80lbs she gained while carrying me 36 years ago! I want readers to know movement is available to every BODY! There is no test result you can’t reverse or reduce through movement and growing into a healthy lifestyle. Our bodies are capable of so many majestic things if we take charge. I love being in this field and getting the opportunity to share this with my people specifically. This field can make you judge your body constantly but my brand is the complete opposite. It’s all about doing what you can until you can do more. I am here to show you how capable you are until you believe in yourself. I couldn’t ask for a greater purpose
Can you talk to us a bit about the role of luck?
Luck has been good and bad to me if I let someone else tell it. I’ve never believed in coincidences, I know things happen to enhance, teach, or pivot us all in the directions that are best for our lives. My goal while running this business is to allow all of the experiences I’m apart of to direct me, and to release my will to control what I can’t. It all works out every time so whatever position good or bad luck plays, it’s apart of my timeline.
