Speaking + Brand Engagements
Hi, I’m AK 👋 (they/them)
I’m a non-binary entrepreneur, speaker and the founder of Free To Move, the body inclusive fitness community for LGBTQ+ people.
As a queer, non-binary and chronically ill person, I’ve felt like an outsider in most fitness spaces, which is why I’m building a new standard in the fitness industry: one that is welcoming to beginners, chronically ill, LGBTQ+ community, disabled and other marginalized folks.
As a speaker, and brand partner, I’m excited to bring my ground-breaking ideas and inclusive fitness content to innovative businesses, conferences and to new audiences.
I’ve helped over 700 queer and marginalized folks worldwide…
in 10+ countries (and counting!) connect with their body, feel stronger in daily life and take care of their physical and mental health.
I’m passionate about building community, creating inclusive spaces, and shaking up the fitness and wellness industry!
I love to collaborate with brands to bring fresh, fun and engaging content across platforms - including my 130,000+ Tiktok and 13,300+ Instagram followers.
