Mataya Boomgarten

Hey, I’m Mataya (@matayaw)! I grew up in Missouri and played college softball in Kansas for two years. I’ve always been super active and loved being involved in all kinds of sports and activities.

After college, I became a dental hygienist and worked in that field for 5.5 years. But in January 2020, I felt a pull to make a bigger impact in people’s lives—and that’s when I launched my online health & fitness coaching business. It’s been the most fulfilling journey helping women transform their minds, bodies, and lifestyles.

In Fall 2020, a friend introduced me to Lagree while I was living in Kansas City. As a former athlete, I instantly fell in love. It was low impact, yet insanely effective both physically and mentally. Every class challenged me, pushed me, and helped build so much resilience in my life. I even did Lagree all the way up until the day I gave birth (true story!).

I became a mama in January 2024, and in December 2024, my husband, son, and I made the move to Arizona. When we were planning our move, I literally searched Lagree studios in the area, found HiPower, and told my husband we had to live within 30 miles of it. I wasn’t giving it up! After taking one class, I knew I wanted to be more involved in this powerful, supportive, uplifting community.

When I’m not teaching, I’m coaching my amazing online clients, working on business ideas with my husband, hanging with my son, hiking, enjoying a drink poolside, or grabbing Mexican food or a good coffee.

I’m all about living a balanced lifestyle—and I love helping other women do the same.

Catch me on Mondays/Wednesdays (and sometimes Tuesdays!)—my schedule might change, but I’ll always bring the energy.
