The Trap Lab Fitness Studio
Icea Pettigrew is a North Philadelphia native and NASM Certified Wellness Coach. She is a co-founder of Hey Sis Essentials LLC, also known as The Trap Lab Fitness Studio. In 2000, she relocated to Federal Way, Washington, to create a better life for herself and her child, seeking to overcome the challenges of an impoverished community. Icea recognized the lack of representation and leadership for BIPOC women in her community. This inspired her to take action, co-founding Phenomenal She (PS) in 2018, a nonprofit dedicated to mentoring and empowering young women of color through education, social awareness, and self-esteem-building programs.As the Program Director of Phenomenal She, Icea has implemented impactful STEM, Art, Dance, and Mentoring programs. She brought this same passion for community and empowerment to The Trap Lab Fitness Studio, creating a safe space for women to focus on their physical, mental, and emotional well-being through culturally relevant fitness and wellness offerings. Icea’s work reflects her deep commitment to building stronger, healthier communities and fostering generational healing. As The Trap Lab Studio expands its reach with new wellness initiatives, Icea remains driven by her mission to uplift, heal, and create lasting change. Her unwavering dedication ensures that her legacy of empowering women and fostering self-love, confidence, and cultural pride will impact generations to come.
