Ama May is a current student enrolled in Tulane Sopa’s kinesiology program and the founder/president of Tulane’s Kinesiology Club. Sharing a passion for health, science, and the circus, Ama has worked with grit (and glitter) as a professional acrobat with the Chicago Circus on various stages across America for 3 years. Prior to that phase of her life, she taught as yoga teacher and personal trainer in the New Orleans Athletic Center and Life Studio on Magazine. She also opened a private practice where she worked with clients out of her home. Sharing a life of movement, artistic expression, and holistic health, Ama has always been invested in the world of kinesiology in some form. She has embodied it in dance, applied it as a personal trainer, and aims to pursue it as a practice of medicine. She will be graduating from Tulane Sopa in 2024 with a degree in Exercise Science and plans to become a physical therapist.
