I’ve never lifted weights. Is this for me?

Yes. Most people start exactly there. I will tailor a program to fit your specific experience and ability. We'll keep it simple and grow from there.

What happens in the first session?

Your Strong Start is 45 minutes. We review your goals and then get right into the work, helping you find the right weight choices and movement patters to suit your current ability.

I have bad knees, a bad back, or arthritis. Can I still train?

Usually, yes. We work around what hurts and adjust every exercise to you. If you’re under a doctor’s or physical therapist’s care, check with them first. I’ll go over your health history with you before we begin.

Am I too old to start strength training?

No. There’s no age limit on getting stronger. Muscle, balance, and confidence respond to training at 40, 60, and 80.

Where is the studio, and is there parking?

I train out of a private studio in Black Mountain, NC, shared with Inner Alignment Yoga: I'll send you the street address once you're signed up. Parking is limited so please arrive no more than 5 minutes early and follow the instructions in your welcome email for where to park.

What should I wear and bring?

Comfortable clothes you can move in, supportive shoes, and a water bottle. All the equipment is here.

What if I need to cancel?

Life happens. Cancel or reschedule up to 24 hours ahead emailing or texting me to let me know.

How is this different from a gym?

We will be the only people using the space so I get to focus on helping you reach your specific goals. No waiting around for equipment or working around others.
