What I, as Your Fitness Coach Will do for YOU!


· As your fitness coach, my role is to help you develop a fit lifestyle, and the ability and self-confidence ...
... to maintain a fit lifestyle. One step at a time.
· Through a coaching inquiry, I will encourage you to identify your fitness vision, motivators, obstacles, and strategies to overcome your obstacles, and commit to developing a fit lifestyle.
· I will listen to you attentively and without judgment or my own agenda.
· Where possible I will ask questions and encourage you to arrive at your own answers.
· I will encourage realistic expectations and goals
· I will be direct and firm with feedback when needed.
· I will help identify creative solutions to get around roadblocks.
· I will provide advice and instruction for engineering fitness into your busy life.
· I will be punctual and responsive.
· I will recognize early whether the chemistry with you is good or not optimal, and if not optimal, refer you to another coach.
I will acknowledge when you have an issue that is outside my scope of knowledge and skill and recommend other avenues.
