Corrective Exercise Specialist
From the National Academy of Sports Medicine. This is advanced training in reading posture and movement, and in building plans to improve them. It is why doctors are comfortable sending clients my way.
About Xavier
Ten years of helping people move better.
I have spent my whole life in gyms. For the past ten-plus years, I have helped people move with more ease and less worry. I take this work seriously, and I run my practice like a professional. Because that is what you deserve.
How I think
Your body is not broken. It's just well-practiced.
Your body gets good at whatever it does most. If it has practiced slouching for years, it slouches well. If it has practiced guarding an old sore spot, it guards well. That is not failure. That is your body doing its job.
My job is to give it something better to practice. Standing tall. Moving in every direction. Breathing well while you work. Do that steadily, and the better way becomes your way. It is not fast. It is built to last. I will take that trade every time. I think you will too.
And I will always tell you the truth. In your first meeting you will hear my honest read. Sometimes that includes "get a second opinion." Sometimes it includes "you don't need me yet." I would rather earn your trust than rush your wallet.

Off the clock
Where you'll find me when I'm not coaching
On the water, mostly. I kayak. I swim. I'm working my way onto a surfboard. The way I see it, a strong body is not the goal. It's the ticket. It buys you long days outside, doing the things you love, for a lot more years.
That is the same deal I want for you. Whatever your version of the water is — the garden, the golf course, the grandkids, the trail — we train so you can keep showing up for it. And yes, there is always music on. Usually jazz house. You get used to it.
