Let’s walk through it together…

Strength is not the final destination

A Squat PR, a marathon, a pull up… these are all just pit stops along the way. We start online fitness coaching with a smart and simple plan, understanding that it may not always go as we intend…

We remove perfection, and infuse compassion. Then we keep promises to ourselves… show up when it’s hard, rest when we need, and keep moving forward.

Along the way we discover we were always Enough.

The Perfectly Crafted Plan.

You have to practice strength to get good at it. You need consistent repetition and deliberate training. Inside our strength and conditioning programs, we use progressive overload and training phases of 8-12 weeks. We increase the difficulty gradually, over time. You will improve your proficiency in movement patterns and build a foundation of strength before moving to the next training phase.

No More Guesswork.

You know you need a plan to make progress. But who has time to write it, make sure it’s progressive, and includes the things you know you need to get you closer to your goals… (oh, I DO)! As an online fitness coach, I write the plan, so you can get back to your Life and trust you are doing everything you need to get you the results you want.

The Antidote to Perfection is Compassion.

Ever wonder WHY you struggled with other online fitness programs? You would go “ All In” then get burned out… or you missed a week and felt guilty (and never went back) keeping you stuck in the shame cycle. My approach begins from a place of compassion. There is no “off the wagon,” or waiting to “get your sh*t together.” Just meeting you where you are at in Life.

A Little Client Love

I made fucking gains! My push ups and pull ups have both progressed. This has been a hang up for me for a long time. Feeling that strength in my body has been quite the boost.

In the past I’ve worked with personal trainers and 1-1 in person, who I don’t feel like have given me the high level of feedback and support that I’ve gotten in The Den… I genuinely feel like I’ve got coaches in my corner who are ready to lift me up with positive feedback and give me the sort of support I need for questions on my form or modifications to overcome limitations in ability or equipment at home.

Having workouts written for me has taken away the burden of planning and let me focus on how I’m feeling and what I need. 7 months into The Den and I’m really feeling the positive effects of my efforts and the genius behind the programming.

I grew up playing competitive soccer

The soccer field was always my happy place. It was the place I felt most alive and most myself. Soccer taught me grit, tenacity, and the teamwork it takes to be successful. I captained my college soccer team and played semi-pro after graduation with top players.

I coached NCAA D1 Collegiate soccer for 13 years

Coaching college soccer at the highest levels taught me how to work with high level athletes. My job was to keep them healthy and fit. Through strength and conditioning I saw not only their performance on the field improve, but their confidence as humans.

I have two daughters

I became a mom during my college coaching days. I had to stick them under my stadium jacket to breastfeed at half time, and they would toddle around at practice on the sideline as I took the team for warm up. They have always seen me active, on the go, coaching, and building a business. The more I work on showing up for myself, the better I am able to show up for them.

I met my husband coaching soccer

My husband and I were on the same coaching staff for my first job at George Mason University. We got to follow our passion for coaching soccer while building our relationship. He works in professional soccer and has also built a successful coaching career.

Let’s work together

I’d love to have you as Part of the Pack. Movement and strength is a gateway. I’m here to help you walk through that gateway, and discover what’s on the other side.
