Philosophy I'm passionate about helping you achieve your fitness goals! I want to help you get back into shape. Finally lose that stubborn belly fat. Regain the ability to move pain free. Crush the golf ball in front of your friends. Achieve renewed vitality and long lasting energy, no longer having to depend on coffee and energy drinks! Whatever your fitness goal may be, YOU and I will accomplish it, as partners in establishing your wellness. I simply provide the environment: it is your work which realizes the benefits. And we will have SO MUCH FUN doing it! My entire approach to training is based upon Applied Functional Science (AFS). Originated by the Gray Institute, AFS is a holistic, integrated approach to treating the human body which offers a superior alternative to traditional training methods. Since the body is integrated and holistic, training it as such optimizes the many benefits of exercise. Treating each client as a unique individual, sessions are based on enhancing the movement capabilities necessary for accomplishing whatever the fitness goal (or goals!) may be. For at-home services, areas such as living rooms, patios, backyards, etc. are perfectly suited for training sessions: you need not have any sort of reserved space solely for training! I am more than capable of working in whatever the housing layout may be. Outdoor training is also offered as well for those who enjoy a more natural setting.
