Foundation Training (Zoom Only)
Foundation Training in a nutshell
Foundation Training is a faster-paced, strength-building class that uses intentional movement and breathing to support your back, improve posture, and help you move through daily life with more power and less pain.

Foundation Training Classes
Foundation Training is a 30-minute group class offered live on Zoom that builds strength, stability, and resilience through intentional movement and breathing. It is faster paced and more physically demanding than Functional Motion, making it ideal for those ready to move beyond gentle mobility work into more active, strength-based support.
Classes focus on deep decompression breathing, pelvic anchoring, and whole-body integration—tools that help support your spine and hips during real-life activities such as gardening, lifting, travel, and long days on your feet.
We use purposeful movements, held positions, and conscious breathing to activate the posterior chain and retrain how your body supports itself.
What This Work Supports in Everyday Life
Less back pain and fewer flare-ups during daily activities
Greater shoulder mobility and ease of movement
Improved hip strength and function
Better support for diastasis recti and abdominal separation
Improved pelvic floor strength and coordination
More natural posture and alignment
Increased strength through the torso, pelvis, and back
Improved breathing capacity and overall energy
Who This Class Is For
Foundation Training is appropriate for teens through older adults. I currently work with clients into their late 80s who have gained strength, confidence, and improved movement through this work.
All fitness levels are welcome. Exercises can be modified, but the class is designed to challenge your body in a supportive way—helping you move as your body was designed to move.
