ISSA Master Trainer
The ISSA Master Trainer credential is awarded only to distinguished ISSA Certified Trainers who have proven their competence in personal training and developed expertise in five additional areas of concentration through specialization certifications. This esteemed knowledge means personalized programs and targeted results for any type of client.
ISSA Corrective Exercise Specialist
Whether you sit for long periods of time, are a weekend warrior, or fall somewhere in-between, it is quite likely that you may have a movement deficiency that is causing suboptimal physical performance and increased physical pain. As a specialist certified in corrective exercise, I can perform movement assessments, make referrals to medical professionals when necessary, and incorporate appropriate strategies into your training program to help you correct movement dysfunctions and muscle imbalances. Ultimately, this will lead to improved physical performance and reduced physical pain.
ISSA Certified Nutritionist
Whether you want to gain muscle, lose fat, or live healthily, your limiting factor usually lies beyond exercise. Poor nutrition is what holds people back. As a certified specialist in this area, I can help you dispel the common myths about nutrition, and then work with you to design a \"real world\" nutrition plan that you can actually stick with and enjoy.
ISSA Certified Yoga Instructor
When you're trying to balance all of the busyness and stresses in the world today, Vinyasa Yoga is an amazing outlet. "Yoga is considered a state of being--remaining present in the current task without distraction. It is a philosophy and a science facilitating, through practice, a connection with the spiritual aspects of life. Though associated with Hinduism and Buddhism, it is not a religion or a religious practice. All stated, the most important thing about yoga is breath, and the goal is to increase connection by decreasing avidya (disconnection) and to eliminate impurities." --Yoga Vinyasa Flow Instruction Book
ISSA Certified Transformation Specialist
As a Transformation Specialist I'm armed with the skills and techniques required to truly coach and influence behavioral patterns as they relate to your physical, mental and emotional well-being. You will see better results faster, and have an easier time with the transition to the behaviors and activities I suggest.
ISSA Lifespan Coach Certification
Health and fitness aren’t one-size-fits-all—especially across generations. As a certified Lifespan Coach, I specialize in helping clients build healthy habits at every stage of life, from energetic kids to active older adults. I provide age-appropriate guidance to support growing bodies, prevent childhood obesity, and keep youth engaged in lifelong movement. For seniors, I focus on mobility, strength, and injury prevention to help them stay independent and vibrant. With a thoughtful, customized approach, I empower clients of all ages to live fuller, healthier lives—because it's never too early or too late to feel your best.
