I’m a mom/ therapist/ trainer based in Charlottesville, Virginia. I love making art, spending time with my family, and being outdoors.
I love running, hiking, biking, and lifting heavy things. Movement is one of my go- to strategies for clearing my head, and I also love connecting and sharing activity with others. I’ve been a group exercise instructor since I started teaching cycle classes in graduate school, and I got my personal trainer certification a few years later. While I love movement and see it as a positive force in my life and my work now, there have been times when my exercise has been excessive or harmful. I’m still constantly working on my relationship with movement and my body, but I’m proud and excited to be sharing joyful, intuitive, anti-diet movement with others.
It means nonjudgmental listening and partnering with my body to meet its needs and celebrate its strengths, with a focus on experience over appearance.
