The Move Your Groove Program

Developed to help you jump start your exercise and wellness routines, MYG gets you up and running with a safe, effective exercise routine tailored to your goals and your body.

MYG also focuses on helping you identify and build life habits that support your overall health and well-being.

Committing to taking care of yourself, finding the time, just knowing where to start, it all can be daunting. I guide and support you on your health journey. First, I help you determine your exact destination, next we map your way there, and than I’m right by your side along the way, helping you stay on course.

MYG helps you identify and build life habits that support your overall health and well-being.

GET RESULTS

As personal trainer, I ensure that your exercise routine will help you achieve your goals as quickly as possible.

My exercise routines emphasize functional strength and joint safety. You also learn how to do each exercise correctly to maximize results and minimize risk of injury.

 

FEEL BETTER

With an exercise program that addresses postural misalignment, weak spots, and any pain or physical limitations you may have.

And coaching support to help you build healthy habits.

 

 

WHY?

♥ You want to feel better.
You are ready for change.
You’d like some help.

WHAT?

You get

  A guided exploration of what would benefit your overall health and wellness
  A fitness/alignment assessment
  A customized exercise routine
  Precise instruction on proper form
  New strategies and tools to help you change old patterns and develop healthier habits
  A clear understanding of what’s held you back in the past
  Weekly planning sheets to keep your way forward crystal clear and achievable

WHEN?

Get in touch and we can set up a free telephone consultation to talk about what you would like to work on.

WHERE?

MYG can be home-based. I began my career in NYC so I know how to work with small spaces. You also don’t need much equipment. In most cases an exercise mat, a physio ball, a tennis ball, a foam roller, and some weights or resistance tubing are all we need to get you going.
Of course, gyms work better for some people, and I can oversee a gym program.

Virtual sessions

I was skeptical, but on-line personal training really does work. We can do this remotely.
If you are in Portland, Boston, or New York we can do an initial session or two in person (including the fitness/alignment assessment).

Mid-Coast Maine

We can meet in your home (this is ideal so we can tailor your routine to your space). Or we can meet in Belfast or Camden in a studio space.

HOW?

We make a plan

  We start with an initial 75 minute coaching and in-take session that includes a health/fitness history, an exploration of your current health and wellness, and a discussion of your hopes and goals. We use all of this to develop your game plan.
  Our next session is also 75-minutes. This is when we get you up and running with exercise. We also continue to explore your fitness goals. The session includes postural, strength and mobility assessments. We also start developing your exercise routine.
  I write out your exercise routine with detailed instruction so you know just what to do and can exercise on your own with confidence.

We get you going

  Weekly 60-minute sessions move you forward with exercise and habit building. Each session is divided between coaching and personal training according to need and agreement.
  You leave each session with a weekly planning sheet to keep you clear about your goals for that week. Achievable action steps keep you accountable.

We circumnavigate obstacles

  We work to develop a clear understanding of what’s held you back in the past, so you keep moving forward.
  Mid-week check-ins address any questions that may come up and support you in achieving the goals you set for your week. (6-week program is 5 sessions. 12-week is 11.)

WHICH?

6-weeks or 12-weeks

6-weeks

Some of us just need a nudge, some of us need more support. A month-and-a-half is long enough to get you into the swing of a new exercise routine and some new habits.

  12-weeks

With the 12-week program we go deeper, taking more time to explore both your current situation and what goals will benefit you most. We have more time to spend on your exercise routine and on learning each exercise. And three months is enough time to solidify your new habits.eekly planning sheets include achievable action steps selected to move you closer to where you’d like to be and to keep you on track.
