I believe movement can be accessible to anyone
...no matter their circumstances. I am passionate about bringing ease of movement into the hands of regular people: anyone from athletes, to those working a desk job, to those wanting to thrive in retirement! Studies have shown that exercise and nutrition are more beneficial regarding Type 2 diabetes, cardiac issues and Alzheimer’s Disease than any available drug...
Come learn how your body was designed to move; and how that movement truly is medicine!
My Story
I started out in general group fitness teaching spinning, BodyPump fully embracing harder=better....
In 2003, I started my journey with the pilates method and my mindset began to change. True fitness requires both a push and rest and every level in between (don't misunderstand me, pilates can require the push as well as offer a rest). There is wisdom in seeking what your body needs each day...
In the mid 2010's I discovered the work of Eric Franklin, The Franklin Method.
The Franklin Method was the first training I had that viewed anatomy in movement, as opposed to anatomy in rigidity. If the human body moves, why were we—movement professionals—never taught how?
Eric Franklin's teaching showed me that when the brain knows how the body moves, the body can move mindfully. The natural results are unrestricted movement, joint and muscle flexibility, effortless posture, and a more tranquil headspace.
Rather than focusing on a specific set of exercises, The Franklin Method comes alongside any movement modality and teaches how your body moves through it!
15 years into teaching movement, I finally learned the secret: when your brain joins the conversation, everything changes.
Now, movement is fun and I want to make it the same for you!
My clients say I'm magic
The magic is not my super power. You have the magic in you ... it's been there all along... I just show you how to tap into your own super power so you can go back again and again all on your own! I'm always here to help but the joy comes when you tap into your own magic!
Get better at what you do all the time
In Franklin Method, we focus primarily on everyday things, walking, putting things on a shelf, breathing. This allows you to live your life more free. Free to make the choices you want, free to go without hindrance.
Will you make some gains that will translate into the gym, on the court? Yes... but having the freedom to live life on your terms is priceless!
It all starts with imagery
I utilize imagery to give you an understanding of your body beyond just head knowledge. We will explore how the body works anatomically but then also bringing in metaphorical imagery to make your experience your own. You leave with the power and ability in your own hands (and brain! to improve how you feel both physically and emotionally
