Corrective Exercise Specialist · Baltimore, MD

Move like it used to be easy.

Stairs. Long walks. Getting up off the floor. Life should not feel heavy. I teach your body to move well again — one step at a time.

The first meeting is free. It's just a talk. No pressure.

Start here

Which one sounds like you?

Most people come to me from one of two places. Pick yours. I'll show you what we do next.

I'm 55 or older. I want to stay active.

  • Stairs feel harder than they used to
  • You want to garden, travel, and play with the grandkids
  • People say "exercise more" — but no one shows you how

We practice the simple moves of daily life. Then daily life feels light again.

Mindful aging training

I'm healing. Or getting ready for a surgery.

  • Physical therapy is done, or will be soon
  • Old habits keep pulling you back
  • Your doctor says "keep moving" — you want a real plan

We practice good moves, the right way, so your hard work sticks.

Corrective exercise

Just want a great trainer?

I take a small number of personal training clients too. At your home, or online. We decide together if it's a fit.

The process

How it works

No mystery. No pressure. Here is the whole thing.

  1. We talk. It's free.

    We meet in person or on video. I listen. Then I tell you what I would do, in plain words. I will even tell you to get a second opinion first. A good plan can handle that.

  2. We ask your doctor to join in.

    For corrective work, I like your doctor to reach out to me. Then we all stay on the same page. It also drops your rate from $129 to $98 an hour.

  3. We practice. Week by week.

    We practice standing tall and moving well. A little at a time. With good breathing. Soon your body starts doing it on its own. That is the whole trick.

Straight talk

How long does it take? The truth.

Old habits took years to form. New ones take months to build. Anyone who promises a fix in two sessions is not being straight with you.

WEEK 1 MONTH 6 MONTH 12

New to this, with no old habits? Often 2 to 3 months. Deep old habits? Six months to a year, or more. There are no shortcuts. Just steady work that pays off.

Common questions

Asked all the time

Will I be all better after one or two sessions?

You will feel a difference. You will stand and move with more care. But real change takes months of practice. I will always tell you the truth about that.

I have never been a "gym person." Is this for me?

Good. Most of my clients are not gym people. We do not lift heavy or rush. We practice everyday moves, at your pace. If you can walk in the door, we can start.

Is this physical therapy?

No. I am a certified trainer, not a physical therapist or a doctor. I do not diagnose or treat anything. I work best alongside your doctor. That is why I ask them to be involved.

Why does my doctor matter here?

Your doctor knows your history. That helps me plan better for you. And with a doctor's note, your rate drops from $129 to $98 an hour.

Where do we train?

Corrective exercise clients meet me at Coppermine Timonium. Personal training can happen at your home, or online.

Not ready to book? That's fine.
