What We Do

Welcome to your home base for accessible self care. From personal training to medical nutrition therapy to workshops and challenges, everything we do here is size-inclusive and trauma-informed.

For starters, we don’t coach weight loss. We teach you to reflect on how you feel as you’re engaging with movement, food, and other health behaviors. We help you bridge the gap between wanting to be the kind of person who takes care of their body, and being that person - in practical, accessible ways that build confidence without sacrificing flexibility!

What does “size inclusive” mean?

  • Our measurement of success is based on your satisfaction with your self care practice, not on your weight or size. We know that your behaviors and beliefs affect your health and happiness far more than the number on the scale. We don’t measure or track your weight.

  • You’re in charge - we’re just here to help you take action on what’s important to you. Your autonomy is inherent, not earned.

  • Our resources acknowledge and provide for spatial needs, equipment weight limits, and overall accessibility. If something we offer doesn’t quite work for you, we will adjust it until it does!

  • We understand the challenge of living in a large body in an inaccessible world, and we can facilitate conversations to help you work through those challenges in weight-neutral ways.

  • Health behaviors look different for everyone, and we never expect you to look or act a certain way in order to be doing it “right.”

  • "I have been working with Sarah for almost two years. I've gotten stronger, my knee pain is gone and my foot pain has all but disappeared. Sarah's workouts are flexible yet challenging."

    — G. S.

  • "I'm going on year three, and she has helped me get so much stronger and stay consistent with my movement. She listens, is fun to work out with, and makes virtual sessions feel like she's right there with you."

    — A. B.

  • "I was nervous about getting started. Sarah made it easy to get going, and has helped me stay on track. I especially appreciate the way she incorporates my feedback to design a program that works for me."

    — E. M.

  • "Sarah is an expert in creating an environment where you can enjoy movement instead of just using it as a means to an end. Her workouts are accessible to all body types and strength levels. She has helped me create lasting movement habits instead of short-lived exercise stints."

    — C. M.

  • "I can't recommend Sarah and her programs highly enough! She was the right person to work with when I was getting started, and she's the right person to work with now. I've laughed nonstop, I've learned about my body, and I've accomplished things I never, ever would have believed I could do."

    - S. B.
