Functional Fitness Coach | San Diego
Not just stronger—rebuilt. ✨
Elite strength and mobility training for anyone becoming their next self.
Hi, I’m Apryl Ortega — a San Diego-based functional fitness coach helping people move better, get stronger, and feel deeply connected to their bodies. (Hablo español también!)
I specialize in strength training, mobility, weight loss/ fat loss, and rehabilitation to help you build a body that works for you — not against you. Whether you’re bouncing back from an injury, looking to improve your energy, or simply ready to feel strong again, I’m here to guide you.
Why I Do This
Growing up, I saw my parents give everything to work and family—while putting their own health last. Watching them struggle with long-term health issues taught me that we can’t pour from an empty cup. Now, I help others prioritize their well-being through intentional movement and long-term change.
What I Offer
Strength & Resilience
Functional training to build muscle and confidence for everyday life.
Injury Recovery & Prevention
Thoughtful movement that supports your body’s healing and future performance.
Mobility & Movement Quality
Training that helps you move better, feel better, and prevent burnout.
Mind-Body Coaching

My Approach
🌿 Rooted in Intention — Everything we do has purpose.
🧠Education-Focused — I teach you to move smarter, not harder.
🔥 Empowering — I’ll help you push past limits you didn’t know you had.
✨ Transformational — You won’t just change your body, you’ll reconnect with it.
