Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
New coaching clients are contacted by phone for a brief interview. A follow-up questionnaire is electronically mailed to the client, and a Success Session - an in-person meeting to discuss history, goals, and plans - is scheduled. The initial session includes a movement assessment to determine appropriate activity selection for initial programming.

What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Know what you want, and ask any and every question that comes to mind. You should be completely comfortable and confident that you and your coach are compatible before beginning a program together.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Be certain that your coach has actual experience, not only teaching, but actually applying the skills he or she would recommend to you. (As an example, if you were interested in running a triathlon, don't hire a bodybuilder.)
