Our Why

At Define Your Fitness, we believe everyone walks a unique path in life and it goes without saying that we all have our own fitness goals. The athletic goals of a swimmer will differ than a weightlifter, just as the fitness goals of a collegiate athlete will be different than a working parent. If the goals differ, so should the training. Our mission is to bring out the most resilient, powerful, and courageous selves in people through fitness coaching. Everyone deserves to make a mark in the world, so why not feel great while you are on your journey

Movement Training

Start date TBA

​Most of the activities we engage in daily have some aspect of skill involvement. Whether you are into running, or you are performing household tasks like changing the cat litter, you are using your skills, i.e., you are moving your body in purposeful ways. Our Movement Training program builds on fundament movement patterns like the squat and progress towards more complex skills. If you want to improve your general movement, learn new tricks, or simply want to keep up with your kids, this program might be for you.
