Private In Person Training
Completely private, 1-1, in person training with a strong focus on marrying your needs with your wants. Our training will be rooted in the following:
+ Identification of your strengths and what we could capitalize on to get to where you want to be.
+ Identification of quite the opposite and thus the most ideal plan on how to bridge the gap between the
two.
+ Developing an acute balance between strength, conditioning, mobility and skill to serve you both in the
gym and outside of the gym.
+ Actual enjoyment of moving well and often.
+ Long term maintenance of what you’ve gained from the experience of personal training. Ideally, I want you
to learn quite a bit from our partnership so to carry your new knowledge with you for your entire life.
My methods are a conglomerate of various schools of thought and methods I've studied over the past 14 years. See my About page to check out my educational background. I coach and teach with specificity and attention to every detail. I am quite unconventional. I work with a wide variety of clients so feel free to reach out and inquire about anything at all!

Remote Strength & Conditioning Programming
I am currently accepting remote clients for strength and conditioning via the Truecoach online platform.
We begin with an open ended phone consultation and chat about your history, what you’re looking for and how I can best serve you. Workouts are delivered to you on a monthly basis. They are completely unique and specific to you.
Don’t have equipment? Not to worry! I can provide them!
Not sure what remote coaching is? Email me @ joanmoves@mindful-rebel.com
Not located locally? That’s okay! That’s who this is for! Many of my clients are located internationally and throughout the USA, many I have never met!

Mobility & Movement Therapy
Mobility is for every one. Some possible categories you might fall under are:
therapy, performance or every day maintenance. It's okay to fall under multiple categories, or none.
A full body in-depth mobility & movement screening and evaluation is strongly encouraged prior to beginning a program but is not required. Screening can take up to 2 hours; this is a good thing, trust me. The more information I gather about your current self and previous self, the more specificity your programming will have.
Following the assessment, meeting 2x/week is suggested as a foundation. Three would be ideal, time permitting. Expect a bit of a learning curve within the next few weeks. You'll catch on quicker than you'd think. It doesn't have to be complicated. Homework composed of a tailored CARs routine, weak-point PAILs/RAILs and several other programming techniques are included in the rate.
Meetings range from 60-90 minutes. Time caps stress me out, I'd rather never rush. No one ever enjoys rushing mobility work.
I suggest committing to 12 week cycles at a time. No less, but more is okay. Change happens only as a result of your compliancy to your program, patience, dedication and length of your history spent not mobilizing. Don't worry about losing "time" or that sessions are lost because we spent 2-5 months in Phase 1, payment is determined by session packages, not by days, weeks, or months. Also, phases are not determined by time, they're determined by visible and internal progress. Phase is also never required, it's optional for those who wish to take it several steps further for fun or for performance. Phase 2 is where we'll likely spend most of our time. No pressure, either way.
Phase 1: Generally address the primary core issues revealed in the assessment, if it took place. Concentrate on global movement and patterns as a foundation for future progressions. Teach the fundamental web of how joints and soft tissue functions. Awaken the neuromuscular connection, learn proprioception, teach joints how to be joints, address breathing mechanics.
Phase 2: Deepening specificity of training. Teaching joints to stabilize and mobilize where needed. Beginning to connect and weave programming with your daily life outside of the time spent together. Concentrate on improving the body-mind connection by strengthening the neuromuscular connection once its been awakened in Phase 1. Learning to "own" and "control" your end ranges in various planes and positions.
Phase 3: Further loading the newly carved active ranges. A deeper application to movements performed outside of mobility training. Restructure your day to day to life progressively as you integrate and weave mobility principles. Potential for learning how mobility translates to complex movements such as a handstand, split, or front squat.
