Online Coaching
Let me help you make this year your strongest year yet with customized workouts. One of the biggest challenges I hear from women is that during the menopausal transition, their bodies don't seem to respond the same as they did before. That they are confused and frustrated about all the mixed messages about what they are "supposed" to do. I will work with you to create the best exercise routine for YOU. Every workout is custom-designed specifically for you, considering your goals, equipment, fitness level, time, and likes/dislikes. You can access your workout library any time via my app and ask me as many questions as you need.
My goal is to help you find what works best for you and, most importantly, what you enjoy doing. Without joy, there is no sustainability, and that is the ultimate goal; finding something that you will want to do long-term. Contact me to find out more!

Menopause Coaching
Menopause-Specific Fitness Consultation [$249]
Whether you’re just starting your fitness journey or want to maximize your fitness routine to improve your quality of life in menopause, I can help. Consultations begin with a detailed questionnaire that teaches us both about your particular needs and challenges. Then, over the course of this sixty-minute session, I’ll gather information and devise a roadmap for your fitness journey going forward. You will receive your customized roadmap after the session. Please note that your roadmap is not a personalized exercise routine but an overarching plan on the elements and format that may work best for you based on the information we collected during the session.

During menopause, your body goes through some drastic changes. You may find that the workouts that used to work no longer do. Private coaching is an excellent way to focus on your specific needs and goals. If you’ve been told you have to put up with a certain amount of repetitive boredom if you’re ever going to see “results," you've come to the right place.Â

This is my signature, in-depth, coaching program and is a rare combination of education, support, and motivation that goes beyond the strictly physical. With fitness as a baseline, we’ll delve into so many other ways to optimize this next stage of life!
As women in or approaching menopause, we’re told over and over again that the only way through this awkward stage is to cling tightly to what we once had–or tried, successfully or not, to achieve. Regain our “youthful” appearance. Redouble our fitness efforts to keep from losing ground. Do something–anything!--about that belly fat. These messages prey on our fears, but do they motivate us? Not really, not that I’ve seen, and certainly not for long. And that shouldn’t be surprising. Shame has a very short shelf life, especially once we grow older and wiser.Â
So, how do we get off this bus headed straight to Fuckaroo? If we give up on trying to “hack” the aging process, are we giving up altogether? More importantly, if all that self-improvement doesn’t matter anymore, what does?
My answer: quality of life (QOL) through guided self-exploration. It is SO in our power to live better lives, do more of what we love and less of what we don’t, stop trying to make ourselves fit into an impossible mold, embrace this change and have more fun–even adventure!–in this one life we’re given. You’re the expert on you, after all, and once you de-fang the messages that weren’t serving you in the first place, you can make real progress. That’s what I’ve seen happen in New Moves™.Â
I’ve always been all about fitness–especially strength training–and guess what? Fitness contributes greatly to QOL. Women who’ve gone through the coaching of New Moves™ have expanded their definition of fitness, trying brand new activities, tweaking familiar ones, and experiencing more joy in the vast possibilities of movement. In short, I’m absolutely not turning away from fitness!
Can you tell I’m excited? This coaching program is something I'm really proud of in how it helps the women who take part. Interested in learning more, or joining the next cohort? Click the link below.Â
