I am an American College of Sports Medicine Certified Personal Trainer and previously certified American Red Cross Water Safety Instructor & Emergency Medical Technician. My experience as an EMT helped me realize just how important a role lifestyle is for overall health, as well as preventing illness and disease. As a personal trainer, I have the ability to share my knowledge and teach others how to prevent and overcome many of the most common issues that prevent clients from starting and safely participating in exercise programs. I have been able to help clients improve their lifestyle, reduce their risk or symptoms of disease, and alleviate pain from injuries, while encouraging a positive relationship with exercise. What sets Core Effects apart from your typical personal training experience is my ability to evaluate a client's current state of readiness. What this means is I design the programs specifically to meet you at your current level of fitness, building up your stamina and confidence with time.
