About Me
Victoria Islas, B.Msc
Master Trainer & Health Coach / Metaphysical Practioner / Reiki Practitioner
Hey, I’m Victoria! Health Coach, Certified ISSA Master Trainer, and founder of Steel Mace Warrior and SMW Fitness & Health Coaching in Yuma,AZ.
Over the years, more than 100,000 people have tuned into my videos, and 200+ students around the world have taken my online courses. But my story didn’t start with success. It started with pain, loss, and a deep need for healing (And I am still healing everyday).
When my dad passed in 2017 from preventable chronic illness, I found myself in a place of grief and survival. That’s when I picked up a steel mace, not just for fitness, but as a way to process my pain. Then, I became the full-time caregiver for my mom, who I eventually lost too. Living through that kind of heartache, while also managing my own autoimmune condition, cracked me wide open. It changed how I saw health, movement, and what it really takes to feel whole again.
Today, I bring over 7 years of experience blending unconventional training, holistic health coaching, and metaphysical tools that get to the root of what’s really going on physically, emotionally, and energetically. I’m not just certified on paper (though I am: ISSA Master Trainer, Health Coach, Reiki 1 & 2, and a Bachelor’s in Metaphysical Science)…I’ve lived this path. I get it.
I work with women, LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and soul-led folks who want to feel strong in their body and safe in their spirit. This isn’t about perfection or aesthetics. This is about feeling like yourself again. About feeling grounded, powerful, and aligned.
Let’s work together and reclaim your wellness on your terms.
FAQ
What is Health Coaching?
What is Health Coaching?
Health coaching is a collaborative and supportive process that helps you create sustainable changes in your life: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. As a health coach, I guide you through personalized strategies for things like nutrition, movement, stress, sleep, and mindset, so you can feel better, take control of your well-being, and build a life that actually works for you, not against you.

What is Metaphysical Science?
Metaphysics is all about exploring the big questions: why we’re here, how the universe works, and our connection to it all. It’s not tied to any one religion but embraces spirituality in many forms. At its core, it’s about understanding life, truth, and our purpose beyond just the physical world.
In my health coaching programs, metaphysics plays a key role in creating balance between the mind, body, and spirit. It’s not just about working out or eating well. It’s about shifting your energy, breaking through mental barriers, and aligning with your higher power or warrior self. Through movement, mindset work, and deeper self-awareness, you’ll learn how to train with intention, fuel your body with respect, and rewire your thoughts for lasting change. This is about more than fitness. It’s about stepping into your strength inside and out.
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a gentle, hands-on (or distance) energy healing practice that works with the body’s natural energy system to support emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. From a holistic health perspective, it helps release energetic blockages, balances energy centers, reduce stress, and create space for the body to heal itself...restoring balance on all levels.
How much do your services cost?
Best way to find out is to get in contact with me! But just to give you an idea right now, it starts at $89 per month but goes up to $499 per month. Some plans require a 3-6 month commitment. It all depends on what you need at the moment.
Are you located in Yuma,AZ?
Yes! I have lived in Yuma for almost 20 years. I do not have a physical location, I work with clients online via Zoom one-on-one and through my app (remotely).
If arranging something in-person is a must for you, please chat with me about it.
Can you train me at my gym?
No. Most gyms in Yuma do not allow outside trainers to work within their facilities due to their policies. You must either be an employee or strictly work within the confines of their rules. I like my freedom to work with my clients without restrictions.
I have online personal training and in-person training options for select clients. Let's chat about it.
What age range do you work with?
I work with anyone over their 30's.
Do you have access to lab tests?
As a Certified Health Coach, I use tools that take the guesswork out of your wellness journey. One of those tools is access to at-home lab kits that make it easy to get real insights into what’s going on inside your body.
These labs are reviewed by a licensed medical physician, and I personally receive your results so we can go over them together in a 30-minute Wellness Lab Review Session. You’ll also get your own private client portal where you can view and manage your lab results, which you’re welcome to share with your primary care doctor.
This process is all about getting to the root of what’s really happening. And if I ever feel your needs go beyond what I offer, I won’t hesitate to refer you to a trusted functional health practitioner/clinic right here in Yuma, AZ. I take what I do seriously, and if it’s best for you to get additional care, I’ll make sure you’re supported.
Important Note: Labs are only available to clients enrolled in my health coaching services.
Can you recommend the best supplements for me?
I don’t prescribe supplements, but here’s how I can support you:
Once your lab results have been reviewed by a medical physician, we can go over them together. From there, I’ll offer wellness-based supplement suggestions and educational guidance based on your personal goals. My role is to help you make informed choices, not to diagnose or treat. Always be sure to check in with your doctor before starting anything new.
