Functional Movement
Functional movement is all about learning to move your body with proper muscle and joint function. These movements help build a foundation of strength, alignment, balance, and confidence.
The body is meant to be strong and to move. Unfortunately, many of us lack confidence in movement or experience pain and discomfort. Lack of physical activity can increase poor muscle use habits, and any injury or accident can further limit the body’s ability to develop holistically. It takes a matter of consciousness, presence, alignment, and safe guidance to rewire these movements.
Functional movement will help you reconnect with your innate ability to be strong, mobile, balanced, and fit. Join me and gain the vitality to enjoy staying active and doing what you love!

In contrast to my previous gym experience, workouts were mindfully selected to address specific muscle groups and core strengthening, recognizing that my shoulder needed to develop strength gradually.
