FEEL AS STRONG AS YOU CAN

​

FOR AS LONG AS YOU CAN!

I help women improve their strength, mobility and balance.

 

My clients learn to embrace the healing power of their bodies so that they can feel strong in the bodies they actually have, rather than the ones they think they "should" have

 

Helping people feel strong and empowered to solve their own problems is my passion. I believe the world would be a better place if everyone felt strong and confident in their body.​​​​

I am originally from Northern California, but have lived in the Chicago area since 2004, aside from a 2 year stint in London.

I now live in Oak Park, IL with my husband, two daughters, two dogs, 6 chickens and many aquatic creatures.

In my free time you can find me digging in my garden, on a  walk or reading historical fiction!

core values

I believe…

 

We can all heal. 

​

We are all healing organisms. We heal in multiple ways every day. Trusting that our bodies are capable of healing is the first step on our healing journey.

 

Listening is powerful. 

​

Learning to listen to the signals your body sends is a powerful tool in learning what you will need in order to heal. Listening to each other does the same for our relationships. 

 

Human connection is key. 

​

Connection with each other is an important part of health and healing. Finding and fostering connections that support our healing is important in all aspects of life. 

 

Gentleness gets your farther.

​

In our bodies, our relationships and our lives, it takes more strength and determination to do difficult things with gentleness. When we aim to be gentle with ourselves and others, it is a powerful form of respect. 

 

The closer to nature, the better.

​

Modern life can often pull us away from nature. There is power, wisdom and strength in nature that we can absorb and learn from when we spend time in nature, eat more naturally and consider the effects that our actions have on the natural world.

“Look deep into nature and then you will understand everything better.” - Albert Einstein
