Parents, keep an eye out on the discord for a link to some kids comp photos! Couldn't get everyone but got what we could!

If you’re looking for a quick fix, I’m not your coach.

Most of the people I work with are busy. They have careers, businesses, families, travel, LONG days.

They don’t need another extreme plan.
They need structure that fits their life.

I’ve competed in bodybuilding. I know how to push a body hard. But long term results are built much simpler than people think:

Intentional lifts.
Eat enough protein.
Have clear nutrition plan.
Walk.
Recover.
Repeat.

No cutting out entire food groups.
No two hour cardio sessions.
No starting over every Monday.

If you’re a busy professional who wants to get stronger, lean out, or stop overthinking fitness, this is what I do.

We build something sustainable so your progress actually lasts.

If that sounds like what you’ve been missing, DM “BALANCE” and I’ll send you the next steps to book a free strategy session.

Absolutely stellar time @nexus_ajj . What a way to restart training after a slow start to the winter season.
.
Thank you @gannon_lang for always taking the time to share your knowledge and delightful personality. It makes me so happy every time I introduce more people to you. Your gym and your leadership are a treasure.
.
Thank you as always to the incredible @zanettaporetti and @mnddcksn for giving us the most spicy rolls. I’m lucky to call you friends, teammates and training partners. Always silly to me how women half my size destroy me on the mats.
.
Thank you at @peak_isoimages for your incredible work. I’m like a little kid waiting to open a Christmas present every-time you send a link of your work!
.
Last photo is why @gannon_lang is the most fun coach. I am about to be subjected to the move of the day and while you can’t see it, I’m giggling like an idiot.

We want to give a big thanks to our referees. You handled your calls with great care and thorough dedication. It was known each athlete stepping onto the mat was in good hands with your watchful eyes.

Having skilled female grapplers and fellow competitors in this sport take on these roles is really important to our organization. We are grateful for your time and enthusiasm.

Summer is family focused, always, so any bit of training I get is an opportunity for delight. Thank you to those who made time to train with me.
