PERSONAL TRAINING
FOR ADULTS — SPECIALIZING IN 45+
FUNCTIONAL FITNESS, STRENGTH & RESILIENCE
As owner and head trainer, I bring more than five decades of personal fitness experience and over 15 years as a professional trainer. I specialize in adults 45 and older, while also working with people of any age who need exercise following rehabilitation or who face neurological, mobility, or movement challenges.
Our personalized functional fitness coaching is built around you — adapting as your body changes and working within your limitations, not around them. We focus on strength, mobility, balance, stability, confidence, and resilience, so you can perform better in daily life, stay independent, and keep doing what you love.
If you're already fit, we'll help you break through plateaus and take your conditioning further with challenging, progressive circuit-based training.

No, we do not. SilverSneakers covers only up to $30 a month, which may be suitable for basic gym access or large group classes—not individual professional coaching.
With 5 decades of exercise experience, including 15 years working with older adults, we offer one-on-one and semi-private coaching focused on balance, mobility, joint recovery, and safe functional movement.
Instead of a crowded gym or overfilled class where no one is watching your form, you get customized coaching designed to keep you strong, pain-free, and independent.
-
Each session opens with an optional warm-up, which most members do, then moves into your assigned routine, guided by one of our coaches. We finish with a cool-down, where we often work on something specific — balance, stability, or whatever you need extra attention on. We'll also check in on how you're eating, your daily activity, and anything you've noticed in your body that we should address.

At Body By Wally, we specialize in helping individuals with injuries or neurological conditions like strokes, Parkinson's, CMT, and fibromyalgia regain their strength and mobility. We start at your current level and build progress gradually, ensuring every session is safe and effective.
For example, we helped an 84-year old client with Parkinson's go from struggling with a 5-inch step to climb 21 stairs at home in just 9 months. Through consistent training, we focus on improving flexibility, strength, balance, and overall functionality, greatly enhancing quality of life and helping clients achieve their best, no matter the challenges they face.
