Mini bio
From salsa to the gym.
Before bodybuilding, Yarishna performed salsa with her twin sister Karishna and appeared on Q’Viva! The Chosen. In her Iron Man interview, she traced her move into fitness to 2012, when her sister’s pregnancy paused their dance partnership. A coach encouraged her to try Bikini competition.
Finding her stage.
She earned her professional card at the 2013 NPC Junior Nationals in Chicago and made her pro debut at the Tampa Pro that year. Her later move into Wellness brought wins at the 2021 New York Pro and Texas State Pro, followed by the 2022 Boston Pro. She placed fourth at the 2021 Wellness Olympia and eighth in 2022.
Coaching beyond competition.
Her work now includes online strength workouts, coaching through Yarishna Fitness and training singer Karol G. Television has remained part of her story through Exatlón Estados Unidos and Los 50, while Panatta announced her as an ambassador in 2025.
Returning on her own terms.
In 2026, Yarishna returned to the New York Pro. Speaking to Panatta afterward, she described taking time away to rebuild confidence and coming back with a stronger sense of herself and a wish to enjoy competing again.
