"My gLOVEs UP 🔺story! My name is Oksana Joy also known as gLOVEs FIT NYC.
My fitness journey began in a boxing gym. I started as a boxing enthusiast with a goal to get in shape and not too long ago turned to a weekend trainer. I enjoy working with children, girls and girls with diabetes for a truly rewarding and fun experience. I wanted to do something with my PASSION for boxing and have some kind of PURPOSE . Everyone in a boxing gym fights for something. I wanted to fight for a cause greater than myself.
I CREATED gLOVEs FIT NYC boxing/ self defense inspired fitness program, where I encourage self gLOVEs/Female Empowerment through the sport of boxing. One of the mottos I like to live by is Self care =Self love. Boxing is one form of self care. When you take care of your mind and your body you RAISE your gLOVEs UP. I TRAIN because it make me feel STRONG, HEALTHY and most importantly HAPPY. Boxing EMPOWERED and ELEVATED me physically and mentally. I created gLOVEs FIT NYC because its everything I STAND FOR. I am in the process of making a Non-Profit Organization for Girls with Diabetes. We are now small but working very hard to make this BIG VISION happen.
Raise your gLOVEs UP. Raise GIRLS gLOVEs UP. Together we RISE STRONG-HER. I want all girls to be WINning in self gLOVEs! 🥊❤🔺
