About The Coaches:
Federico Carranza
A seasoned martial arts expert who began training in martial arts at a young age, motivated by the bullying he experienced during his teenage years. He started with Taekwondo, a sport that taught him fundamental values such as respect. Alongside this, he also played soccer throughout his childhood. It was Jiu-Jitsu that allowed him to connect his body, mind, and soul, marking the beginning of his journey into MMA training. By integrating these skills with his academic background in Marketing and Business Administration, Federico discovered the power of the body. Martial arts taught him how to balance weight disparities and harness intelligence through strategy and discipline.
Karla Sutherland
Karla is an Ayurvedic practitioner, yoga teacher, Army veteran, and MMA enthusiast with over 30 years of experience in holistic health and wellness. A former Canadian Infantry Instructor, university boxer, judo and tai chi practitioner, massage therapist, and Operations Manager of Whistler Blackcomb's Adaptive Ski Program, Karla's diverse expertise reflects her passion for empowering all ages. As the founder of our organization, she blends Ayurvedic wisdom with modern practices to promote balance, vitality, and mindfulness, offering tools for personal empowerment in fun and inspiring ways.
