Olivia Ham | olivia@sweatlikeamother.com

Olivia Ham is an ACE Certified Group Fitness Instructor, Certified To Birth & Back Movement Professional, and a Kettlebell Concepts Level One Instructor. She holds a certification in CPR/AED through the American Red Cross. She is a proud military wife, and mother of two. Olivia is originally from Seattle, Washington. She met her husband while he was stationed at Fort Lewis, WA in 2007. They have since called Georgia, Alabama and Texas home before arriving in North Carolina in the summer of 2022.

Olivia’s love for S.L.A.M. began in El Paso when she was newly postpartum, new to Texas, her husband was scheduled to deploy for 9 months, and she was seeking both a great workout and supportive community. She found that and so much more, going from member to coach and having the opportunity to help lead in El Paso for 2 years.

When Olivia found out they were relocating to Fort Bragg she was overjoyed to know there was an active and thriving S.L.A.M. group in Fayetteville. She could not wait to join in any capacity. When the opportunity to come on as S.L.A.M Boss was presented, Olivia eagerly jumped at the opportunity!

Olivia believes there is a place for each and every mom, in all stages of motherhood, at S.L.A.M. She is passionate about helping mothers to either find for the first time, rediscover, or develop themselves, as mother athletes! She believes fiercely that kindness is cool, there is a seat for everyone at the table, and we are all stronger when we work together.

Olivia’s favorite ways to get her sweat on are kettlebell workouts, heavy lifting, running and cycling. When she is not at S.L.A.M. you can find Olivia spending time with her family, exploring the outdoors, reading, cooking, hanging out with her S.L.A.M. sisters, and usually all while drinking coffee.

In 2014, she moved with her husband to Ft Bragg. After having her first son in 2017, she joined Fayetteville SLAM and found her tribe! She SLAMed through her second pregnancy and then decided it was time to give back as a coach. She is a mom of two wild boys and loves that they’ve found their own friend community with SLAM. She enjoys running, getting strong, HIIT, and themed workouts but because life involves balance she also loves baking and eating fancy foods.

Becky Webber | Instructor

Becky Webber is an ACE certified group fitness instructor and certified in Adult/Pediatric CPR/AED. She discovered SLAM 4 months after having her baby and has loved every minute of it since. Not only has SLAM made a huge impact on her physical health and strength but it has helped her with finding her mom tribe, mental health, motivation and finding and sharing a positive outlook. She has called Fayetteville home for 9 years. She and her husband, Joseph, have a 2 year old son, Liam. Liam is her biggest fan and loves clapping for her and all of the mommas at the end of each class.

Rebekah Jackson | Instructor

Born and raised in Miami, Fl, Bekah learned to love fitness young as a gymnast and competitive cheerleader. This lead her to earn a Bachelor’s of Science in Applied Physiology and Kinesiology from the University of Florida, and to become a NASM Certified Personal Trainer. While still in Miami she spent 4 years as a senior Personal Trainer for Equinox where she earned multiple certifications including Fit for Birth Pre/Postnatal Corrective Exercise Specialist, NASM Group Fitness Specialization, Precision Nutrition L1, Kettlebell L1, and Trigger Point Therapy. 

As an athlete her heart may lie with heavy weights but as a coach her goal is to help every individual have unwavering confidence in their technique so that they can push themselves a little further each day without fear of injury. She feels that the purpose of physical fitness is to allow us to live our best lives without fear of our bodies holding us back. 

Soon to be momma to two baby girls under 2, she’s grown to love and appreciate the flexibility and community that SLAM offers to fitness minded mamas and can’t wait to help the community grow.

I’ve never been apart of such an amazing group of moms! I was so nervous and worried about comparing myself to the other moms- that immediately went away at my first class. Everyone is so welcoming and encouraging! The workouts are well thought out and planned. I feel so much support and love from everyone! It’s my favorite way to start the day!!

Amy is seriously THE BEST! I have been working out with Stroller Strong Moms for months and I love it! It’s a boot camp style workout at the park with intermittent running and we also go to the gym when the weather isn’t so great! The kids/babies hang out in their strollers or play together while we work out. It is a great community of moms in all levels of fitness. Whether you are a fitness guru or haven’t worked out in years, this is for everyone!
