Meet the Coach

The heart behind the method.

Margie Prado
Certified Trainer + Founder of The MPowering Method

I’m Margie — NYC-born and raised in Washington Heights, Dominican to the core, former D-1 athlete, law enforcement officer, and a lifelong student of growth and grit.

My journey started on the basketball court, where discipline, strategy, and team were everything. I took that drive with me into college, earning a Criminal Justice degree and later serving as a Juvenile Counselor in NYC. I’ve always been drawn to helping people — especially those who felt overlooked or misunderstood.

When I founded MPowering Fitness back in 2016, it was never just about workouts. It was about creating a movement — one rooted in love, accountability, connection, and respect. Over the years, I’ve had the honor of coaching hundreds of women from all walks of life, watching them rise mentally, emotionally, and physically.

After moving to Florida to pursue my dream of serving in law enforcement, I never let go of that coaching passion. Today, I’m proud to wear two uniforms — one that protects my community, and one that empowers it.

The MPowering Method isn’t about hustle culture, crash diets, or punishment. It’s about healing. About remembering your power. About loving yourself out loud. I built this method for every woman who’s ever felt like she had to shrink herself to survive. I’m here to tell you — your strength is sacred.

If you work with me, you’ll be held accountable. You’ll be challenged. You’ll be celebrated. You’ll be loved. And you’ll never be alone on your journey.

Let’s rise — together.
