Training & Coaching Philosophy
My Personal Training style and Wellness Coaching is quite unique as I use years of wisdom, steadfast inner guidance, traditional Ayurveda, and the key Universal Principles of Alignment to help my clients find holistic balance in their body alleviating years of pain and opening up to a lifetime of fitness. I network with other area professionals to create a nest in which we co-create a treatment plan utilizing our unique genius/area of specialty in unison to serve the needs of the client. So we each bring a unique piece of the puzzle and together we help people to begin a life pain free and in balance. In addition, I design personalized fitness programs infusing an eclectic and potent blend of Pilates fitball, free weights, core integration and stabilization, yoga and cardiovascular endurance. Energize also goes into organizations around the Boulder area to create synergy and integration in the workplace through the use of group fitness team building classes designed to increase success while decreasing stress in the corporate and non-profit world.
My clients range the full spectrum of fitness levels from new moms to professional althetes training for events around the globe. I love helping to guide people through life's transformations by inspiring them to live and move from their core bring into union their physical, emotional and energetic bodies creating hormonal balance, a sustained increase in energy and a reduction in stress. By adopting a lifestyle of holistic and balanced fitness and nutrition, my students and clients find the benefits of not just exercising but energizing.

we believe we can’t do.

• Choose an area of life wanting change
• Acquire the tools to manage that change successfully
• Understand and appreciate each stage of the Transition process
• Learn what you need to design your own ceremony for a powerful
