CHOOSE YOUR WORKOUT
I am a Certified Strength Coach and Personal Trainer who uses functional training to improve a client’s body composition, athletic performance, and health. I am also certified in the Functional Movement Screen which helps identify muscle imbalances and flexibility restrictions that must be addressed.
New clients are required to participate in a fitness assessment which provides valuable information in creating a personalized workout program.
Training programs generally include a dynamic warm-up, power training, core work, functional strength exercises, agility, flexibility, mobility, and corrective exercise as well as introducing a variety of types of training equipment.
You can train individually, semi-privately, in a large group, or even online, whichever works best for you, if you're interested in semi-private or group training please contact me for scheduling options.
Martial Arts lessons can be done in-person or online, and you have the option of doing private, semi-private, or group lessons. Contact me for rates and availability.
