Soma VT

Soma VT Soma VT is a gym offering personal training, small group training and massage therapy. Every exercise programmed at Soma Vermont has a reason.

Soma Vermont is a relationship-driven gym centered around personal growth, relationship building and attention to detail. Soma VT offers personal training, small group training, gym membership, massage therapy and works closely with Movement Matters, a Physical Therapy practice that shares the space at 2069 Williston Road in South Burlington. Sam Orfanidis, one of Soma VT’s trainers, has over 12 years of experience as a personal trainer and owned his own gym, Spectac, for 5 years. He served as the Director of Operations and Head Strength and Conditioning Coach with Concept Move for 3 years prior to joining Soma Vermont. He also has coached a women’s powerlifting team which has won several awards over the years, both individual accolades and team victories. Emma Murphy recently completed an additional certification through the National Academy of Sports Medicine to add to her fast-growing resume of experience which already includes work in dance, martial arts, physical therapy and personal training. Emma herself is an accomplished athlete within the martial arts community and serves as an example for those that she coaches. Soma Vermont is influenced by Kevin’s work in professional baseball with the Oakland Athletics and his work with the National Strength and Conditioning Association, where he has served as State Director and been a part of numerous advisory boards. Kevin also has a passion for health outcomes with his work as an Exercise Physiologist with the Academy of Sports Medicine. Every coach has a plan for their members and are seeking to drive their health and fitness outcomes in the safest and most effective ways possible. Soma is a place where members can be comfortable and confident that their health and fitness are in capable hands.

We got asked recently “what do you do with those?”

TRX straps provide a unique ability to adapt almost any training program. Whether it is upper body, lower body, or core work, we can utilize one piece of equipment in multiple ways.

Rowing patterns, pushing patterns, single leg support, intense core, or as monkey bars if day care is closed. One piece of equipment can go a long way in creating engaging, challenging, and individualised movements!

A quick and easy rundown on the hamstring muscle group!

The hamstrings are definitely popular amongst our trainers! I’m sure our members would agree sometimes we can go a little hamstring crazy, but for good reason!

Here is just a broad introduction to the lower body posterior chain. New videos on the hamstrings coming soon(ish)!

Do you have a favorite (or least favorite) hamstring exercise?

Someone is very excited about his new shoes!

For context, the marathon will be coming up soon, and Kevin is trying to get his laps in while he can.

It did spark a conversation though.

What are your preferred running shoes? Comment below!

-Maybe they are as bright as Kevin’s.

Meet Alex! Soma would like to recognize the effort and work that Alex has put into his training.

This deadlift represents more than just a lift. It represents the time it took to get out of low back pain, to engage the right muscles at the right time, and to feel confident in the movement.

Alex has been training with Soma for over a year now! We wanted to give credit where it was due!

Thank you for your continued efforts and consistency, Alex! Even if you get bullied for being late sometimes. We appreciate you!

Coach Kevin walks us through an alternative to a traditional overhead press. Barbells have many functions to movement, and this is one of our favorites!

Give it a try, and let us know what you think!
