I always keep a watchful eye on your form while you train and we can easily modify exercises to ensure it feels comfortable (and challenging!) for you. We’ll start wherever you’re at.

Together we’ll work on building strength using a combination of body weight, free weight and kettlebell exercises. My programming will be tailored to your individual needs and goals to ensure you feel confident in your movement inside and outside of the gym. I typically have my clients ensure they are getting cardiovascular activities (such as walking or cycling) and mobility work outside of our strength sessions.

I typically work with my clients once or twice a week and also encourage them to engage in an active lifestyle outside of our work together. Most of my clients do their cardiovascular exercise and mobility a few days a week outside of our work.

All of my client sessions are 55 minutes.

This varies for everyone but generally most clients start to notice a change with consistent training sessions within the first few months. If you are newer to training, you may notice a more significant change in your strength in the first few sessions. Age, genetics, overall health and medical conditions all play into the rate of change but at the end of the day, the most important factor is consistency- and with consistency, I know you'll feel stronger.
