We love sumo deadlifts over here! Look at how strong Heather has become over the past year or two!! She’s really starting to look like a power lifter sporting her beanie & 💪!
Here’s the thing though… Heather isn’t doing this to look a certain way. She’s doing this to gain strength, bone density & to compliment her active lifestyle-yoga, mom life & walking all the dogs!
Heather doesn’t just talk the talk she puts in work & walks the walk too!!
Considering Heather’s active schedule she only has time for 1 training session a week. It goes to show if you show up, focus on your intention, work hard (even only 1 day a week) you will REAP the benefits of your efforts.

This workshop offers a supportive space for yogis with hypermobility. Guided by Emily’s lived experience with hEDS (Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome) and her training as a Hypermobility Coach, you’ll explore ways to practice yoga that nourish stability, connection, and embodiment. Through mindful movement, feedback from props, and intentional pacing, you’ll learn how to slow down, enhance proprioceptive feedback, and deepen interoceptive awareness—the ability to sense and respond to what’s happening within. Expect a blend of education, guided exploration, and grounding techniques to help you feel more connected, supported, stable, and strong in your practice.

This small-group workshop, limited to 6 participants, allows for individual attention, personalized guidance, and a comfortable space to explore at your own pace. Ideal for those who are hypermobile, suspect hypermobility, or have one or more hypermobile joints—and are curious about building sustainable movement patterns rooted in awareness and self-trust.

Different body types, different lifting backgrounds… yet these women come together & not only weights; they lift up each other!

It’s amazing how good this felt. I don’t ever remember feeling as much as I do now. I have much more connection w the ground & the bar. My form is smooth, strong & balanced.
I haven’t regularly practiced Olympic weightlifting since covid. I lost the desire to lift 2 hrs 3-5times a week in a dark garage gym all winter alone… even tho I enjoy being alone. It’s a thing
I’ve been practicing & coaching Integral Movement Method this past year. The connection I’ve gained w/ my hypermobile body through this method is evident to me in this video & my day to day life. Jerks were always my weak link. The stability overhead is what took me out of competing internationally after qualify in 2019. My shoulder had enough & I ended up w a labrum tear. All these years later I am very pleased w my progress.
I’m not even wearing Olympic weightlifting shoes, using chalk or wearing wrist straps, knee wraps, etc…
This is 66% of my body weight. I’m happy w the overhead stability I’ve gained. Makes me dream of competing again.

Leaning into supports as a hypermobile weightlifter. Using straps can greatly reduce the pain in your hands from gripping the barbell.
I also use herbal methods to help relieve my hand pain. Check out my other account for info on stinging nettles. I’ll share it to my story here as well.

Cindy explored sn**ches for the first time last week. The sn**ch requires technique, mobility, as well as stability. The movement came easily to Cindy… even barefoot!!
