Starting Line: Movement Screen and Corrective Exercise

The first step to tailoring an exercise program that meets your specific health & wellness needs is to conduct a simple movement screen. This assessment measures your movement quality and provides me with information that helps eliminate the guessing game of finding the cause to your pain or injury. In addition, the information found from the movement screen will be used as a blueprint to developing a results-driven exercise program that improves functional strength and reduces risk of injury. 


The next step is to implement corrective exercise, which (in a nutshell) is orthopedically-sound movement patterns that enhance posture, mobility, stability, and muscle activation. Corrective exercise can also be viewed as movement preparation and should generally be done prior to exercise.

Develop Functional Strength

Now that we have a roadmap, I can effectively train your body to perform fundamental activities of daily living without the occurrence of pain. Benefits of incorporating functional exercise to your training program include:


  • Improved motor control

  • Improved kinesthetic awareness and posture

  • Improved bilateral, unilateral and core strength

  • Identify common movement faults

  • Reduced risk for injury

  • Burn fat and develop muscle tone

Sports Performance & Athletic Development

My philosophy for athletic development is based on two principles: The Psychology of an Athlete and the Prevention of Injury. From a psychological standpoint, I think it is crucial for every athlete to develop self-efficacy, self-motivation skills, and to lead by example on and off the field in order to have consistent success. I also believe that through postural awareness and sound fundamental movement patterns we can create symmetry in the body and develop functional strength that will reduce injuries and enhance athletic performance. By using best-in-class research and a results-driven approach, I have developed a sports performance focus that includes:


  • Developing strength in all 3 cardinal planes and axis of movement

  • Improving power production, kinematic sequencing and reducing risk of injury

  • Empowering athletes to handle physical and mental adversity
