I teach a simple, effective, self-empowered program to help you re-connect with your body, break free from chronic pain and injury, and let go of the self defeating attitudes of judgement, doubt, and fear.
The Art of Fitness is an incredibly powerful and holistic way to love, honor and respect your body that integrates deep tissue massage therapy, self care techniques, corrective exercise, a barefoot/minimalist lifestyle, and functional training. TAO Fit will decrease both disease and dysfunction, reduce your long term health care costs, increase your productivity, boost your individual earning power, and realize your potential for a fulfilled and satisfied life.
Runners, Athletes, Week-End Warriors:
Your body is your machine. I will teach you to safely transition into a minimalist/barefoot lifestyle and raise your health and fitness level to new heights. You will receive deep tissue massage, which, in combination with the self care techniques I teach, will bring an end to the injury cycle. I instruct in corrective exercises to improve your posture, gait mechanics, and running efficiency. I write an individualized, fun, challenging functional training program to increase your speed, agility, endurance, strength, balance, stability, power, and over-all body image. You will perform, play, and run faster and farther, with less pain and injury for the rest of your life.

I will show you how to prioritize your health and well being so you can solidly uphold your responsibilities for your family and become fully capable of passionately pursuing your personal dreams.
