Hello! I am a master level trainer with 15 years of experience having held dozens of certifications and believe that education and utilizing peer reviewed research is important to provide the best coaching to my clients. Every client is an individual and I meet you where you are in your health and wellness journey. We design your program according to you goals, time available, lifestyle and current health status. I strive to make each session fun and engaging – and teach you along the way.

Do movement that you will enjoy and do consistently. Working on improving muscle is key to longevity and healthspan.

A check in to see what your energy is that day and if you have had any changes in your health. Followed by a dynamic warmup that is relevant to our workout of the day. The workout/movement is designed in advance according to your goals and may be modified for the energy for the day. In will consist of resistance/strength training, mobility, posture and balance improvement and finish with stretching or homework to stretch. We may touch on lifestyle like sleep, and stress and nutrition.

Sam is a 31 year old male with multiple disabilities including cerebral palsy, low muscle tone and osteoporosis. I changed Sam’s daily movement and included a workout 5-6 days a week. He started pushing his own wheel chair up a hill, wearing a weight vest for sit stands and other leg strengthening exercises and he began a specific care provider assisted work out at a gym 4 days a week. Stretching focused on better posture and ankles. His nutrition changes were an increase in calories and protein with the appropriate micronutrient diversity for health and recovery. He has increased muscle tone, his last Dexa scan showed an improvement in his bone density, and he sleeps better through the night despite having apnea.
