I absolutely love helping people achieve goals they never thought possible. I believe in a very practical, life-long approach. Nurturing a partnership to grow into a trusting, supportive relationship leads to true success. The first time they can successfully climb a flight of stairs without huffing and puffing, their first push-up on the floor, first time they felt in control of food choices again...giving people hope and showing them the path to their goals may be bumpy but absolutely worth while (and possible) regardless of their starting point. Credentials: *BS in Exercise Science *Certified Trainer, NFPT *Certified Medical Exercise Specialist, ACE *Fitness + Nutrition Specialist, NFPT *Precision Nutrition L1 Coach *Bariatric Patient Training, Kinesis Centre I have worked with clients who were looking to lose weight, gain muscle, improve flexibility, reduce medications, &/or just improve quality of life. As someone who has lost 168 pounds personally, and someone who has joint problems & other health conditions, I understand how to work with clients to ease them into a new lifestyle they enjoy without overhauling everything at once. My clients include all ages, sizes, & abilities. Many of my clients struggled with joint &/or muscle issues/injuries and have seen great improvement in their movement (without pain).
