Focus on your whole being: From exercise programming and nutritional guidance to support and motivation, we take a holistic approach and understand the science behind true behavior modification. With a focus on enhancing, preserving and maintaining health, and preventing illness, we understand the emotional, physical, behavioral, nutritional and lifestyle factors that are needed to enhance your overall health and well-being.

Establish a connection: One of the most important things we do is work to establish rapport built on respect and trust. To allow for a successful and effective coach-client relationship, we establish an understanding of the psychological, behavioral and emotional needs and characteristics of you as an individual. That understanding begins by identifying your unique personality through open communication and active listening.

Set SMART Goals: With understanding your personality and your personal interests, past successes and failures, your attitudes and beliefs about health and fitness, and your readiness to change, we will work with you to establish SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, relevant and time-bound) goals. Through this effective approach, which helps you establish both short- and long-term goals that are continually revisited, we will help you to take goals and transform them into reality.

Retrain the way you think: We help each individual establish positive self-talk (the things we tell ourselves) by identifying negative, irrational and erroneous beliefs. By becoming aware of situations where negative self-talk occurs, including times when you may say to yourself, “I hate my thighs,” we help you shift to a more accurate and positive way of thinking. By listening and applying our expertise, we help you transform your self-talk to thoughts like, “Leg exercises to firm up my thighs might be tough, but they are going to look great in shorts!”

Overcome barriers: From lack of time to financial constraints, inclement weather, injury or medical issues, there are a number of environmental and lifestyle factors that often serve as external barriers to people trying to improve their health. Coupled with internal barriers such as low self-esteem and intimidation about exercising in front of others, we will work with you to diffuse anxieties and identify misconceptions that may be standing in the way of you reaching your goals. Although obstacles are inevitable, we will arm you with the skills you need to cope with current and future barriers and provide you with strategies to help you get back on track following temporary slip ups.

Become self-reliant: Our ultimate goal is to help you to become self-reliant…to have the motivation on your own to adopt healthy habits. From helping you create or maintain an environment that fosters success to finding and implementing a support system, we are committed to teaching you the skills you need to succeed in reaching your goals.

Make it a lifestyle: We enable you to see the value in reaching your health-related goals. We will empower you to take ownership of creating positive, lasting lifestyle changes that enhance what you do in everyday life.

WE BELIEVE YOU CAN HAVE THE LIFE YOU HAVE ALWAYS DREAMED ABOUT…but in order to make that happen, you have to stop repeating the same old patterns and habits that have put you where you are today and decide to take one small step down a different path!
