Garnet Henderson

Introduction: What sets me apart from other personal trainers is that, as a dancer, I have spent a lifetime studying movement. My dance training has taught me to think creatively and pay attention to areas that traditional exercise programs overlook. Studies in functional anatomy have also made made me adept at analyzing movement patterns. I bring this expert eye to each session to ensure that you get the most effective workout possible. My fitness plans are mindful and fully individualized. I work with you to create a program that is tailored to your goals, likes, dislikes, and medical history. I specialize in corrective exercise techniques to address a wide variety of postural and movement dysfunctions, no matter how new or deeply ingrained they may be. The main components of my approach are strength, cardiorespiratory, flexibility, core, and balance training. Depending on the client I incorporate a wide variety of other equipment and modalities including high intensity interval training, TRX suspension training, kettlebells, plyometrics, and more. I don't believe in fads or false promises – I use only the most effective, science-based methods.

Just think for a second about how amazing is that your body takes food and air and turns them into energy. That your heart beats and you breathe without even thinking about it. And that you have muscles that can grow and change, and a really powerful brain! It may sound silly, but those simple things are incredible and I like to remind people that their bodies are amazing machines. I also love working with my pre/postnatal clients for that reason. Talk about fast, incredible changes!
