Integrative Movement Science 3
in person immersive ✅

This past week was a reminder, amplifier, and deep look inside (literally and metaphorically!)

Getting my hands back on bodies feels SO GOOD.
Since moving from Reno last April to living out of bags and traveling internationally for half the year, then landing in Tahoe longer than expected, led me to live by the excuse of “not yet”

The most destructive words to mastery,
is choosing to discontinue seeking

I’ve used this excuse as a crutch until i was again in the perfect timing and place, until it felt “better”..

As with any skill that takes your hands,
it requires dedicated practice.

Having worked as a contractor at an Anytime Fitness for 3 years gave me the best space; it allowed me to learn from the and immediately apply it! I was assessing around 8-10 bodies every month for a couple years and it is that exact method that allowed me to become a skilled practitioner.

I’m still skilled with my hands 😉

And, I know I have work to put in.

I’ve been reminded of the pure joy i receive getting to listen to what is causing someone pain / frustration, and apply what I’ve learned + intuitively feel to assist them at an integrative and holistic level.

With well over 50+ measurements, the information we receive from the body is impeccable. One of the most intelligent creations is your human vessel, and it is one of the things we often abuse, overuse, or deny consistent nourishment.

This can shift if we are open and willing to begin asking different / more accurate questions about our mental, emotional, spiritual, nutritional, general life side of things!

The body is constantly working to HELP you live in the pattern you do. To change the body, we can change the pattern.

Long story long, saying yes to the biggest truth in my heart has been my greatest discovery; and I refer to this “work”. I’m eager to build up my clientele here in the Central Coast of California, and remind people just how powerful their body-minds are.

Eternally grateful to have found .chek works and be lucky enough to learn first hand from him at the !

Aho to all who choose this path 🩵

What kind of athlete are you?

To me, being considered an athlete does not mean having to compete or win against others

You simply get to show up and “compete” against yourself yesterday without judgement

This can look like..

The lifter.
The runner.
The yogi.
The hiker.
The skier.
The dancer.
The surfer.
The hybrid trainer.
The snowboarder.
The “I just want to feel strong in my body” woman.

Here’s the truth most fitness spaces miss:
you don’t have to choose one identity to belong, and you never had to.

As women, our bodies are designed for adaptability, not restriction.

You are capable of knowing what it feels like to live in a strong / movement toward body AND curl your hair or enjoy soft moments of journaling with candles lit

You can build strength, move beautifully, train hard, recover well, and still enjoy every way your body wants to express itself.

Your favorite activity isn’t something you have to earn.
It’s something you can continue to support by building a body that can handle life, load, and longevity / aging!

This is what integrative strength is about:
training a body that lets you do it all without breaking down.

Which athlete are you?!

Happy gotcha day to my bestie♥️

Yesterday was bittersweet, relieving, and so full of love. We were able to drive up highway 101 through Big Sur to meet the new families of two of Zena’s puppies.

In so many ways, I am repeatedly reminded just how magical this life is, and the people who you meet along the way at the perfect time.

I am completely ecstatic about the homes that Avala and figgy went to- they are SO so so so loved, and I am forever grateful for these humans that now are apart of my own family.

That’s the thing about dogs…
They remind us that we’re all the same on the inside

They remind us that the little things are the big things

They remind us that love and kindness go farther than aggression and quick outburst

They remind us that at some point in our lives, we were all just little puppies, running around, exploring the world, learning what felt good vs what felt less good, and who we felt safe with.

They remind us how unconditional love “works”

That in order for unconditional love to be present, we have to learn how to love ourselves as God, each person, situation, moment, and the meat of potatoes of reality for exactly what it is without trying to change it - which is a pure reflection of God, source, Great Spirit

Thank God for the love of dogs ♥️

Client before and after 📈⛷️🏆

My client was a busy busnwss owner, driving to the bay multiple times a week, yet prioritizing the rest of his time around skiing and the love of his life.

So what did we do?

1. I assessed his body using my tools and skills cultivated from my schooling with the

2. We got REAL about the actual amount of time and energy he had, and where we could reduce instead of add

3. We met x3 a week, adjusted training session to session depending on what his body, emotions, and mind where telling us for that day

4. We stayed consistent and realistic with his goals while having fun and learning about each other!

My philosophy has been and continues to be..
If you’re not having fun, what’s the point?

My schedule is open to new clients ☯️

Dm me or follow the link in bio to schedule a call today!

I have never been anyone other than this woman

Playing, running, jumping, kicking a soccer ball with all my might or learning how to life heavy weights

And also lovvvingggg my hair, healthy strong nails, growing a cute b***y, wearing clothes that make me feel cute and strong

there is SO much liberation in learning you get to be a girls girl in your own way shape and form 🥲

At 29 I still feel awkward making new girl friends, and that’s ok. I’m ok not being for everyone, and I’m especially ok with not over giving or trying in making friendships when i know in my bones if it is or isn’t a “I feel safe with you” connection

In a world where you can be anything you want as a woman, I choose strong, athletic, elegant, playful, and wise 🌸

moments from my final days in Tahoe 🩵

it’s bittersweet leaving the Reno Tahoe area after a solid four years

From chapters that had begun in chapters that have closed it feels good to be continuing to write this book in the favor of my happiness

Thank you to these mountains and these waters for their nourishment and support in my ever-continuing development 🌞

If your pain keeps returning,
it doesn’t mean you’re doing everything wrong or that you’re not giving it your best go to feel pain free

It usually means you’re missing a few key inputs that teach your body how to adapt safely to strength building

Most active women are incredibly disciplined.
Honestly, active women are some of THEE most disciplined people I have ever met

Their integrity, passion, and energy all speak to wanting to do their absolute best,

And on the other side of that, usually they just weren’t taught how to sequence stability, control, and recovery before intensity, because if you didn’t give it your all 24/7, it wasn’t considered enough (especially if you grew up in the 90’s and before and had male coaches, trainers, etc)

The good news?? Every one of these 5 reasons your pain is coming back is 100% trainable- and free!

So, You’re closer than you think.

I see you athletic babe.
Keep going.

And no, you do not need to be in the gym or running or moving everyday in order to be considered athletic or active.

01/27/2026

If stretching hasn’t fixed your pain,
you’re not failing mobility,
you’re missing stability.

Most tightness in active women isn’t *just* about short muscles.

⚔️ It’s about protection ⚔️

Your body is bracing because it doesn’t fully trust certain positions or loads yet.

For example: you get in a traumatic car accident and injured a certain part of your body. You start working with a PT or a specialist and after a month, you still haven’t gained any amount of range of motion or strength. What gives?

What your body is doing actually intelligent.
It means your system is doing its job of keeping you safe! Although it can feel limiting and often enough, annoying and scary

it’s not that the PT or specialist is “failing”, it’s that your body needs more emotional awareness and slower movements to cultivate safety and trust.

I repeat: the solution isn’t forcing more range.

It’s spending time with your body in intentional movement + breath work to feel supported inside the ranges you already have.

You’re doing a lot right by staying active and consistent :) good job babe!

Now it’s about upgrading how you build control and safety.

Next time you’re working with any part of the body that is bracing, try this:

1. Utilize diaphragmatic breathing (inhale through extension, exhale through flexion)
2. Couple this breath pattern with body weight movement around the part of the body that is bracing and perform them for two minutes, using your natural breathing pattern pace. (Ex: 5 second inhaled 6 second exhale)
3. Observe how that part of your body is feeling, and what memories or associations are coming up within your mind. Allow yourself to experience what is coming up without judgment. At the end of the two minutes, confirm that you’re safe in your body and use your five senses to ground yourself into the moment.

Save this for the days you feel “stuck.”

Strength and mobility aren’t the problem..
how they’re applied is.

I spent years doing all the “right” things and still delt with recurring pain. What finally changed wasn’t adding more work, it was changing the order and intent behind my training!

Pain shows up when your body can’t adapt to the load you’re giving it.

When joints don’t have options, when movement lacks control, when intensity is chased before capacity is built, that is when pain becomes the signal.

This is what integrative strength solves ‼️

If you’re an active woman 28+ who trains consistently but still feels stuck in pain, my page is for you:)

2016 was a year I felt unlimited and free.

Fresh out of HS, I moved from MI → CO to gain residency, but really I followed what made me happiest.

I fell into ski bum culture, found belonging working in the mountains, and let curiosity and happiness lead instead of a rigid plan.

That year cracked me open; new experiences, full days on the hill straight to the gym, a few psychedelic moments, learning about THC, meditation, yoga, spirituality, and questions about life I’d never asked before.

I adopted my soul pup, Zenna May, road-tripped to Moab, worked a bike/ski shop job that summer, took an accelerated EMT course, and chased 14ers every weekend.

2016 wasn’t all light, though.
Summer felt lonely once my ski friends left.
And later, when I struggled to pass the NEMT exam, I felt crushed. old patterns of shrinking, distancing, and self-doubt surfaced hard. My dream of ski patrolling were ripped out of my plans before they could ever really begin.

Still, that year planted everything: my love for the mountains, my first glimpse of the West Coast, the dream of moving to California, and the resilience that would shape the next decade.

Looking back now, I’m deeply grateful for the joy, the “failures”, and the moments that forced me to adapt and stay present. Without “failing” the EMT exam, I would have not have chosen yoga or the preventative care path. I wouldn’t have lived in Huntington Beach for the summer/fall. I wouldn’t be who I am today.

Now 10 years later with so much learned, mostly about how to remain myself and honor that above all else. my surf bum dreams are coming to life, I’m still guiding yoga, and deep into my integrative strength and rehab practice to support the preventative care side of things.

My one wish has always been for everything to turn out exactly how it needs to.

Turns out life feels pretty good operating this way ♥️

Proud of that brave, young, curious Michigan girl for going against societal norms and following her happiness & intuition ♥️

I work with active women and athletes 28+ who are done with recurring low back pain and pelvic floor dysfunction who want integrative movement science + holistic lifestyle performance coaching.

I do this work for the girl on the last slide of this post.

I do it for every time she felt defeated from improper coaching, perpetuating muscle imbalances, and no-end-in-sight physical therapy for knee and low back pain.

I do it to remind her that there IS a way to heal, to move more efficiently, to train with her physiology in mind.

I do it to remind her that she doesn’t have to pretend she’s not in pain because her coach thinks she’s faking it anymore.

I do it to prove women are not tiny men. that there IS a smarter, simpler way to exercise, train, perform, and compete that has genuinely changed my entire lookout when it comes to movement (obviously I had to experiment on myself to know this!)

If you’re an active woman or athlete 28+

DM BODY to apply for 1:1 coaching and start your pain-free strength journey today. All levels welcome 🫶🏽
