About Radically Balanced CoreTM
Your core is not an entity, it is part of a whole system. In this 6-week in-person program you will learn about your unique imbalances and learn how to heal them. You’ll learn how to build the essential strength you need to keep your body optimally aligned for a strong, supple & FUNCTIONAL core. 6-packs are pretty, but without function, they are weak.
Who is this program for:
It is appropriate for women of any age - and is specifically geared toward anyone who has core instability, back pain, or anyone suffering from pelvic floor symptoms such as prolapse, diastasis recti, or postpartum injuries. In today's world with our more sedentary lifestyle, every woman can benefit from not only core strengthening, but learning how to move with more ease and safety.
This is an excellent program for anyone dealing with diastasis recti (overly separated abdominal muscles) which is common after pregnancy, but also occurs for many other reasons and can be common in both men and women. Not sure if you have this? At our first session I will show you how to assess this.
What may happen in your body:
You will build glute and hip strength, strength in ALL the core muscles, improve your alignment, posture and breathing patterns, and learn stretching and corrective exercises to help you restore and maintain your core, pelvic floor AND your whole body health!
What's Included:
~ Six 90-minute weekly group meetings - Monday's at 6:30 pm

~ Additional private sessions beyond the class time are at the program discounted rate of $50/session.
How does it work?
This program is a combination of lecture and movement. If you have physical limitations, most exercises may be done from a chair, however getting up and down off the floor will be essential (but this program will help you get there)! This program will be held at my space in Saint Marys.
Throughout the 6 weeks of the program homework movements/practice will be approximately 20 to 30 minutes - 4 to 5 days a week! The more the better!
What's my Investment in radically balancing my core?
All included plus the 60 minute private consultation = Only $300. NOTE: Early bird rate of $200! My goal is to make this program affordable and accessible to all women especially if you may not be able to afford pelvic floor therapy or it is not covered under insurance. This program is not just to "fix" your imbalances, but to teach you about your body and how to move comfortably, safely, and most of all, functionally. This is why we need at least 6 weeks to learn and practice.
What's the catch?
You WILL have self-care challenges! :) You must invest the time in yourself. 30 minutes a day is only 4% of your day! The more you practice, the more results you will see! The time you invest in your body will pay off!

What people are saying:
By far, the greatest change for me was just a simple tilt of my pelvis. My pelvis was tilting anteriorly and causing my back to hurt. Once I tilted my pelvis back to neutral my back pain immediately stopped! Also, making sure my ribs are not pointing out has been huge for my posture!.
My 3 1/2 finger diastasis recti has healed to 1 1/2 fingers from continuing the core breathing and movements learned at class! Results do come if you are consistent and dedicated to healing yourself!
